FAQs
01
How can I use animation to enhance my digital presence?
Anywhere your product needs explaining or your brand needs to stand out. A hero video on your website that makes what you do clear. Promotional videos for launches and campaigns. Social content that keeps you visible between the big moments. If you want social content going out every month, that’s Cadence.
02
I’m new to animation. Where should I start?
Start with a logo animation and a hero video, two assets that give your brand a consistent look in motion from day one.
03
How long does an animation project take?
It depends on the scope and on how quickly your team reviews each stage. Your written proposal sets a date for every stage before we start.
04
What is your process for creating animations?
It starts with a 30-minute call about your goals and who you need to reach. Then there are five stages, and you approve each one before we move on: 1. Script: the message and the words, written with you. 2. Moodboard: references and ideas that set the look. 3. Storyboard: a still, scene-by-scene plan of the video. 4. Animation: the approved storyboard, animated, with voiceover and music. 5. Delivery: files sized for every channel you use.
05
How much does an animation project cost?
Our prices are published: explainer videos from NZ$8,000, promo videos from NZ$4,000, logo animation from NZ$1,900 and monthly social media video content from NZ$3,500 a month, all excluding GST (September 2026 prices). Cadence also has a one-off set-up fee. Your proposal gives the exact number before anything starts. See what each includes at moveupstudio.co.nz/pricing.
06
Can you work with our existing brand guidelines?
Yes. We work from your brand guidelines, and every animation follows them.
07
Do you provide scripts, or do we need to provide our own?
Explainer and promo prices include the script, so the words and the animation are built together. If you already have a script, we can work from that.
08
Do you incorporate AI in your work?
Yes, behind the scenes, the same way we use any production tool. The message, script and creative direction come from our team, and you approve every stage before we move on.
