Our Animation Showcase package may be what you are looking for. It is tailored for technical, medical and consumer products and gives you, in one reasonable flat rate, a very useful collection of animated media that will serve you quite well across a range of uses: An up to one-minute animation, optimized for each of four media (web-optimized animation, PowerPoint optimized animation, the animation on DVD media for use on computers and set-top boxes, and an uncompressed animation for broadcast use). Also included in this fixed price product are storyboard illustrations, and our development website of your project for your review (click here for sample). Finally, we include a still 11x14" photorealistic print of your product based on any frame of the animation of your choosing. We offer this complete package for $8900. (This price is subject to product complexity. Music, script, voiceover and sound design are not included in this price.)

In addition to the Animation Showcase, we provide a cost-effective and comprehensive suite of animation services:
3D Animation Production Services: NURBS and polygonal modeling, dynamics and advanced particle simulations, shading, texturing, lighting, IK and FK animation, physics-based animation, keyframe and procedural animation, and rendering.
2D Animation Production Services: Flash (vector-based) cel animation, effects compositing, still image design and illustration, prepress services.
Animation Preproduction and Postproduction Services: Art direction, storyboarding, DVD authoring, management of project's extranet site, compression, transfer and archival services.
We can also handle complete productions: Though our specialty is in animation, we enjoy great relationships with an assortment of video production companies, web design firms, public relations and marketing firms and presentation specialists. So with your one call to us, we can pull together your animation needs and implement the moving images in whichever media format you require.
We're well grounded in both classical design principles and modern information design and stay active in the animation community. You'll find we are well-rounded problem solvers who will generously offer both creative strategy and technical expertise throughout your project. We use the same toolsets that major motion pictures use for their animations, with the main difference being that we apply these powerful tools to descriptive animations. As such, our animations tend to have a sophisticated and engaging design.
Central to our workflow is the creation of a password-protected project client site where you can review, immediately write your comments, and approve your animation's progress.
Beyond our flat-rate Animation Showcase package listed above, we estimate costs based on our hourly time and materials. Complex 3D animation for video generally takes more time and tends to describe the high end of the price range, 2D or Flash animation intended solely for the web, the lower range. Price ranges for our projects are usually between $2,000 and $20,000.
