Motion Design
We create editorial motion graphics that put the story first.
From maps and title design to newspapers, documents and explainers, we bring information and ideas to life through considered animation, typography and visual design.

TITLES REEL
SOCIAL MEDIA REEL
Social media sequences are often informative, progressional narrative points where well paced energy within the sequence can create a powerful momentum. They can also be a lot of fun, such as our work on Apple‘s ‘Twas the Fight Before Christmas.
USER INTERFACE REEL
Screens, desktops, UI, online – the inclusion of sequences within films which require period specific graphics and animation are on the rise – and fortunately for us we love to geek out about these things!
NEWSPAPERS + DOCUMENTS REEL
From an archival aesthetic to a stylised look – we are always interested in exploring concepts and techniques which allow for these assets to sit seamlessly within the film. We also explore possibilities between tactile archival newspapers and documents, to online assets – and the possibilities that arise within each. Alex Gibney‘s Citizen K drew from an energetic device inspired approach, whereas Netflix‘s FIFA Uncovered was more key informational.
MAPS + TIMELINES REEL
We understand that grounding the viewer in time and space can sometimes be an imperative function of the narrative. We also appreciate that they can be seen as a necessary evil by some film makers! We love a challenge, and get a little too excited about digging in to explore how we can employ these devices within the film without it feeling like a graphical intrusion. From the effortless live action gliding functionality of BBC‘s Football’s Darkest Secret to the rudimentary old desktop based maps of Oscar award winning Navalny.
