Property leasing involves more moving parts than most people see.

We created this one-minute explainer for Rentals Inc. to show how their service connects property owners, renters, and the different stages of the leasing process.

We kept the artwork light and easy to follow, using clean linework, a limited colour palette, and quick transitions between home life, online listings, and the wider rental network. The pace stays energetic, while each scene focuses on one clear idea.

When watching a short explainer, what matters more to you: a clear story or a distinctive visual style?

This is a chocolate bar commercial we built to explore a hybrid way of working: 3D animation as the foundation, AI as the finishing layer.

Everything starts in 3D software. We block the scene, set the camera, time the motion, and direct the shot the way we always would. That 3D pass then drives a video-to-video AI process that generates the final detailed footage. The craft decisions stay where they belong, with us; the AI handles the texture, light, and realism on top.

It's not a full AI video, and it's not pure CGI. It's a hybrid workflow that keeps full creative control while opening up a faster, richer path to realistic output.

Animation has been out of the Saturday morning cartoons for years. The same thing that used to be in children’s television is now being used by many large corporations as part of their product launch presentations, investor reels, sales decks and onboarding processes.

To most Enterprise Teams today (2026), Motion is no longer an optional “nice to have” item, but rather the primary means of converting a 40 page white paper into a 90 second story about their product or service.

This guide identifies the top animation studios you should include on your list of potential partners this year. Each studio is listed with the best things they do, where they excel, pricing and examples of how to brief the studio to get the first cut as close to the final version as possible. We carefully selected teams that have solid record of working with enterprises. If you are with an enterprise and looking to hire an animation vendor, this article is for you:

We made this lipstick commercial with AI as part of our ongoing tests in beauty, fashion, and product advertising. The idea was to see how close we could get to a real beauty spot, with a believable model, clean art direction, elegant product shots, and a red-and-gold look that feels premium without being overdone.

Each scene was directed, adjusted, regenerated, and edited until it started to feel like an actual commercial, not just an AI experiment. It’s a small look at how AI can be used in commercial production when there is still proper creative direction behind it.

We just released our 2026 showreel, bringing together the different styles we explored over the past few years, from realistic 3D to 2D animation, collage, hand-drawn animation and more. Each piece reflects how we approached storytelling across different client briefs.

Which style stands out to you the most?

Brutal Pulse is a dark anime-style short built around clean linework, controlled motion, and low fps action.

We focused on keeping every movement tight and consistent while exploring a vampire-driven tone across each scene.
