Here’s what our clients have to say

We’ve been working with Explanimate! over the past few years on a variety of projects – from animated videos aimed at introducing a change on culture across Gotafe, to external facing advertising work. We are based in Melbourne, and Explanimate! in Brisbane, but they work so closely with us we wouldn’t know the difference. Super talented, super down to earth team that wows us with each new project. We are looking forward to an ongoing relationship and so glad to have found them.

At Artifact we have a high bar for how we tell the world about our product and company. We wanted to create a video that told the right story about how valuable Artifact is to our industry. The Explanimate! team took that task seriously and excelled at every step of the process. They worked collaboratively with us on style, narrative, and animation. They shared a critical attention to detail with us, while working within the bounds of timelines and budget. We loved working with the Explanimate! team, and look forward to working with them in the future.
