Industry
Announcement trailers, cinematic trailers, gameplay edits, store assets and character animation for studios and publishers who need the game to look its best before launch.
What it is
A game trailer has one job: make people wishlist, buy or download. It has to show the world, the hook and the feeling of play in under ninety seconds, in a style that matches the game and a format that fits every store and feed.
We work with your builds, art and models. We can cut gameplay you capture, animate cinematics in 2D or 3D, and create characters and key art for the trailer and the store page, so everything launches looking like one game.
Services
Six ways we work with Games teams. Each card links to the service page with examples and every price.

From $109 with your logoLogo AnimationUse cases
The first trailer sets expectations for everything that follows. It needs a clear hook in the first five seconds and a reason to wishlist at the end.
When gameplay cannot carry the story, a cinematic can. We animate in your art style, 2D or 3D, so the trailer feels like the game and not a separate film.
Crowdfunding and publisher pitches need a film that shows the idea at its best before the game exists. Animation fills the gaps the build cannot.
Process
Six steps, with your sign-off at four of them and your reviewers in the loop where it matters.
A call about the game, the audience, the platforms and the launch plan, with a fixed written estimate up front.
We collect builds, captures, models, art, fonts and logos, and agree what can be captured and what must be animated.
