Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly will I get my animation?
We can produce a video for just about any deadline, but our recommended non-rush process typically takes 4-6 weeks from start to finish.
We need a video tomorrow! Can you help?
You bet. We are proud of our ability to work the magic that gets you what you need.
Rush projects compress the labor of a multi-week process into as few as 24 hours, so the cost of a rush project will be affected accordingly to make that magic happen.
And if you’re not in a rush? Great. A non-rush process means we have more time to get everything ironed out just right — there’s no reason to rush a video if it’s not necessary.
What styles do you offer?
Our styles include whiteboard, 2D/vector, 3D, kinetic text, character and stop-motion animation. Check out our style reel here. Interested in something else? Not sure how to describe it? Give us a call.
How much will my animation cost?
Pricing is determined by your video’s length (for example, three minutes) and deadline (for example, one month from today). Give us a call, and we’ll be happy to provide a quote.
Who makes these things?
We do! Your animation is created in-house by our team of expert writers, animators, illustrators, editors, and producers. You’ll have one primary contact for the project, but many others work behind the scenes to bring you each draft.
How can I pay?
We accept payment by credit card, check, and EFT. Payment details will be on your invoice, but if you have questions, give us a call at 202-747-0404.
How many revisions do I get?
Our standard process includes unlimited revisions during scripting and, once the script is finalized, three animation revision cycles. Additional revisions will be billed at an hourly rate (although clients rarely request this because our process is efficient, effective, and well tested).
Do you have any experience in my particular industry?
Yes! We’ve had the pleasure of working with all sorts of people and organizations. Check out Our Work to see some sample clients and creations.
Do I have to provide my own script?
No! Scripting assistance is included with every project. During our kickoff call, we’ll ask you questions that get to the heart of your message. From there, we can draft a script from scratch.
If you’ve already got a working script that you like, even better — we can start there, too.

Can I provide my own voiceover?
We generally discourage clients from creating their own voiceover because the best quality recordings require specialized equipment and a trained professional voice actor. But we can work with you to find a voiceover artist with a voice and style that are similar to your own. If need be, we can work from your recordings.
My animation is awesome. How can I ever thank you?
Aw, shucks. We consider your positive words and referrals the highest compliment. We love reviews, testimonials, and introductions to people who might be in need of our services. More than 50% of our business comes to us through repeat or referral customers. We’re thrilled to be part of long-term collaborations around the world.
