Process and production line animation.
A full line is hard to film and harder to explain. We animate the process end to end: product entering, every station working, changeovers, and the finished output, at any scale from a single cell to a complete plant.
What you receive.
Fixed price agreed before work starts, approval milestones through the project, and full commercial usage rights to the delivered assets on final payment.
- Full process flowProduct tracked from infeed to outfeed, with correct timing and direction.
- Station detailClose-ups on the mechanism that differentiates your line.
- Layout and integrationHow the line fits a customer hall, including footprint and access.
- CalloutsOn-screen labels for throughput, format range and options.
- Language versionsSubtitles or voiceover in English, German and more.
- CutdownsShort versions for LinkedIn, booth screens and sales emails.
Where it is used.
Manufacturers across Germany, the EU, the UK and North America, selling machines that are hard to photograph and harder to explain.
Trade show booths
A loop that explains the line while the machine itself cannot be shipped.
Sales meetings
Give distributors a film that answers the how-does-it-work question.
Tenders and approvals
Show integration and safety flow to a technical committee.
Customer onboarding
Explain a line before it is installed on site.
Investor and partner decks
Make a complex system legible in one minute.
Recruitment and internal comms
Show the technology your team builds.
How it works.
NDA first, then a fixed quote within one working day.
Scoping call
What the film must prove, to whom, and by which date.
Script and storyboard
Shot list, timing and callouts approved before animation.
Layout and animatic
Rough motion to confirm sequence and camera path.
Production and delivery
Lighting, render, sound design, versions and cutdowns.
Pricing.
Typical packages. Complex machines are scoped individually, and we will tell you honestly what fits a smaller budget. Full pricing

Questions.
How much does industrial animation normally cost?
Published guides put high-quality industrial 3D animation at roughly $5,000 to $20,000 per finished minute, with professional studios often quoting $8,000 to $25,000. We quote inside that band. A 60 second line film starts at $7,900, and each further film built from the same prepared machine costs 20 to 40 per cent less.
How long does it take?
Four to eight weeks for most line films. Tell us your trade show date at the start and we plan backwards from it.
Do you write the script?
Yes. We draft it from your technical documentation and a scoping call, then you correct it. Nothing is animated until the storyboard is signed off.
