Using a developed script, I asked Abbott Animation to create an amination showing how zinc goes from being mined underground, through the crushing process and then arrives to the processing facility. The animation then explains what happens to the zinc to become concentrate. Abbott had to work with our engineers who provided files as a basis to develop the animation as real as possible.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

We wanted an easy to understand, modern-looking video that clearly explains to the general public what happens to zinc at Hermosa and how it becomes concentrate. 

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Abbott was very reactive to the best of their ability. Sometimes working with our files was not easy and it took back and forth to clearly have what they needed to create a good animation. There was not hard deadline for the project and it was completed within reason.
