Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Cloud animations was responsible for developing 5 videos that described vignette cases related to challenging topics that refugees in the US face including bullying, illness, parent arguing, sibling issues. Cloud animations did not develop content or scripts and only would develop story boards and voice overs related to the content that was culturally specific to Afghan refugees specifically.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The animators developed and delivered all videos and storyboards in a timely manner, less than 1 week.

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

The project manager was very communicative and delivered on time and was consistent. He was also very responsive to email and to needs of our team when we had to wait to get community feedback. When we had cultural feedback, the project manager responded in a strong way to help our team trouble shoot the best path forward to completing the project

What was your primary form of communication with Cloud Animations?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

I think they had a strong project management structure.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Cloud Animations could have done differently?

It would have been beneficial to meet with the animators themselves rather than always going through the project manager as it would have saved a lot of time rather than always using the project manager as a middle man. It was also clear to our UI/UX team that Cloud Animations used multiple animators so we had issues with consistency across videos due to the changing animators. We felt we had to really communicate cultural nuances of the characters multiple times because of this.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

The end goal of the project is an explainer video for a very technical technology concept that is easy to understand for a non-technical audience. The video needed to: 

1. Describe the use case and end market 
2. Identify the problem 
3. Introduce/describe a new technology concept 
4. Present the value proposition of the new technology concept and how it compares with the incumbent technology.

To complete the project (complete video) required storyboarding, graphics generation, script, audio voice over, and several iterations of each component.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The end outcome is the video that met my requirements. Nathan Craigson, the project manager, was professional, responsive, and patient throughout the project, which took more time (not due to Cloud Animation) than we both expected.

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

Nathan did a very good job describing the entire process, from storyboarding through video production. He was responsive via phone calls, emails, or virtual meetings. Timelines for deliverables were well- communicated and on time. If not able to deliver on promised timeline, Nathan made sure I was aware.

We gave them all the details and overview of what we wanted, they created a storyboard, we came back with edits and revisions, they sent us the new storyboard, we approved, the moved on to animation and narration of the script we provided (we chose to write our own script), we revised the final version a bit, and then we had the final file in our hands. Very efficient process.

How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

We worked solely with an account manager, who was great. I appreciated only having to liaise with one central person.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

The deliverables were all met very quickly and efficiently. They were always happy to fix/revise any small thing, and were always easy to communicate with.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Cloud Animations, and what were your goals?

Our approach to digital marketing revolves around 5 main pillars. Within these pillars are strategies and tactics that we customize based on the clients needs. The world of digital marketing changes quickly and is often times hard to keep up with. We needed an easy way to convey our approach to this changing landscape.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

We knew we wanted to do a whiteboard animation style explainer video. There were many options and after much research and internal discussion we ended up working with Could Animations. Their finished product matched what we were looking for and their turnaround time and cost was perfect for our project.

Describe the video(s) and the process in detail, including the project steps and all stages of production.

We initially signed up for 5 videos. The process involved our team providing written scripts for each video, a brand guide and any visual elements that we wanted consistent across all videos. Cloud Animations provided an initial style proof based on our script. Most of the time we were able to agree on the style within 1 round of revisions.

From there, the animation and voiceover process started and we had first draft of the finished product within 2 weeks or less. A couple of our videos needed further revisions and Cloud Animations was able to make those and return the video within 24 hours or less. We were very impressed by the efficiency and ended up signing up for 5 additional videos, for a total of 10.

Who did you work with and what was the feedback process like?

We worked with Phil on each video and his responsiveness and attention to detail was amazing. He made sure we were satisfied and kept things on track.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The response to the videos has been positive so far. We plan to use the videos in various marketing campaigns going forward. Right now, they are all on our website, YouTube channel and social media pages.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

The project management style is informal, efficient and very detailed. Most communication was done via email and if I took longer than a couple of days to respond, I would get a reminder email from Phil, which I appreciated.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

The willingness to get the project right and ensuring we are 100% satisfied is refreshing.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

None that I can think of.

I hired them to do a video for my scaffolding company

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

I try not to be critical but this was one of the worst experiences I have had. The initial scrip was terrible - probably something they got in a minute from chatgpt so i ended up writing it. They used barber and grocery photos for a construction scaffolding video which had nothing to do with anything.

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

When I asked them to revise and correct the issues they'd send the same stuff back.  After a few rounds of that I gave up and asked for my money back because of the "satisfaction guarantee" but refused to refund it.  Spare yourself the time, frustration and money and find another company.

They were asked for corrections and they wouldnt make them but send the same problems back many times.
