Promotional Animations

Animation is ideal for launching new products, campaigns, and sales enablement. We produced this piece for a local business to advertise a promo.

Storytelling Animation

Storytelling is one of the most powerful ways to land a message. This safety animation follows a warehouse team and asks what happens when a hazard is ignored.

Benefits of Illustrations and Animated Content

Animation and illustration make it possible to explain ideas that can be difficult to communicate through words or traditional video alone.

From complex processes and abstract concepts to realistic scenarios and visual storytelling, animation gives us the freedom to bring almost any idea to life.

Content can be tailored to your audience, brand and learning objectives, while remaining flexible and easier to update as your organisation, processes or messaging evolve.

With no need for locations, filming or large production crews, animation can also provide an efficient way to create engaging, high-quality content at scale.

It all starts with a storyboard

Great animation starts long before anything moves.

We begin by storyboarding the experience, mapping out the story, key messages, visuals and learning interactions before moving into illustration and animation.

This gives you the opportunity to review and shape the direction early, while allowing our learning and creative teams to focus on getting the content and experience right before production begins.

Our Animated Educator Videos

In addition to character-led explainers, we produce presenter-style and narrator-led animated videos tailored to your tone of voice and brand.

Animated educator videos help humanise complex topics while keeping production flexible. Update a scene or script without another film shoot.

We align each script with clear learning outcomes and storyboard every beat with you before animation, so stakeholders see the flow early.

Types of Illustrated / Animated Learning Content

Any form of education and training can be delivered through illustrations and animated learning content. The end result could be:

  • Storytelling: your learners are taken on a journey with characters and narrative arcs they remember.
  • Interactive Learning: rather than a passive, click next experience, we build choices and feedback into the flow.
  • Gamification: drawing on games-based learning principles to motivate progress and practice.
  • Quizzes: through tests along the way, learners and L&D teams get actionable insight into understanding.
  • Video: creating a multi-sensory training experience when motion and voice-over carry the message.

Frequently AskedQuestions

Illustrations are static or lightly animated visuals; animation adds motion, timing, and often narrative sequencing. Both can be combined to explain ideas clearly and memorably.

Timelines depend on length, complexity, and review cycles. Storyboarding and script lock come first; we will agree milestones before production starts.

We create animated learning for organisations across sectors, from compliance and onboarding to product training and change programmes.

Learning specialists and visual creatives sit together: outcomes, brand, and accessibility are baked in from storyboard to final handover, not added at the end.
