12 minutes.

A recent client came to us with a dense 60-page technical PDF. We turned it into a clear 12-minute animated film without losing the substance that made the report valuable.

From document to film

The work was editorial before it was visual.

  1. 01

    Find the argument

    We identified the report’s essential claims, evidence and narrative spine before writing a frame.

  2. 02

    Write for the ear

    Dense source material became a script that could be followed in real time, with the technical meaning intact.

  3. 03

    Give every idea a visual job

    The design and motion supported the explanation instead of decorating it.

  4. 04

    Verify the final cut

    Figures, equations, labels and timing were checked against the report by a person before delivery.
