PIGEON STUDIO

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m the VP of product for Innit. We’re a connected food platform that simplifies and integrates the entire food journey for consumers.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Studio Pigeon?

We needed to create animated videos to describe our two core mobile apps.

What were your goals for this project?

Our goal was to create a compelling set of videos that clearly and concisely explained the features and benefits of our products. We wanted to have 15- and 30-second spots that could be used for various social media and marketing needs.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We vetted a long list of agencies via an RFP and Studio Pigeon suited our needs best.

Describe the video(s) and the process in detail.

They created two spots for each of our products, a 30-second overview and a 10-15-second cut-down. We began by sending them a brief and mood boards, which provided context about our needs, as well as a rough script that outlined the story we wanted to tell. Studio Pigeon thoroughly studied our materials and then refined the script, created characters/personas, and generated a storyboard that brought the project to life. After we approved the storyboard, they transitioned to an animated environment to better visualize the videos’ flow. We went through one more round of approvals, and then they started producing the animation.

What was your vendors' project management or feedback process?

They provided incredibly honest feedback and established a dialogue that allowed us to progress quickly, with high-quality conversations on both sides. There was a strong exchange of communication via email. We needed to meet aggressive timelines and Studio Pigeon was up for the task. They helped us hit our milestones and surpassed our expectations.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Executive leadership received the video incredibly well. The videos have driven an above average cost-per-install in social and marketing efforts, which shows that we succeeded in communicating our value proposition.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Studio Pigeon was very comfortable working with distributed teams, seeing as the time difference didn’t affect the quality or quantity of our conversations. We also saw substantial output overnight. The process was fairly lightweight, given the aggressive timelines, so email and a few spreadsheets sufficed for progress tracking.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

They offered honest feedback with a focus on producing a better end-result and making things clearer for the consumer. This perspective made them feel less like an agency and more like a true partner. Their bar for quality and experience was quite high, which we greatly appreciated.

Are there any areas for improvement?

I didn’t see any significant areas of improvement. They should keep up the great work.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am in middle management in my organization and I was tasked with producing an animation.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Studio Pigeon?

We needed a two-minute animation on a legal issue.

What were your goals for this project?

We wanted an animation in understandable language on a rather complex issue.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We selected them through a tender process.

Describe the video(s) and the process in detail.

They created a two-minute animation produced in both English and Russian. They drafted a script, did style and images, created a voiceover, then produced a storyboard, illustrations, and a draft of the clip. After some fine-tuning, they added subtitles.

What was your vendors' project management or feedback process?

We had contact with one person throughout the process, who ensured communication with the creative team. The agency was receptive and incorporated all of our feedback.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The clip was only just finalized, but we’ve already received positive feedback from our partners and they’ve agreed to share it within their own networks.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

We had a responsive point of contact and our workflow was very smooth.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The agency brought experience with animation production and they established an effective process from the outset. They incorporated our feedback well and within agreed timelines, and they delivered a production with excellent value.

Are there any areas for improvement?

No, I can't think of anything.

SOLUTION

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m the CEO of a tech startup that offers a savings-oriented gifting platform for families and their children.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Studio Pigeon?

We hired them to design, illustrate, and produce an animated video.

What were your goals for this project?

We wanted to create a 30-second “about us” video for our website.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We researched companies on Google.

Describe the video(s) and the process in detail.

Studio Pigeon was an active partner all the way from our introductory call to the delivery of the final video. They initially provided us with a concept and preliminary script. It wasn’t quite what we were looking for, so I gave them additional feedback on our creative vision and a basic story. Based on that, they quickly understood our vision and moved in that direction with their designs. While our in-house staff provided the script due to some language limitations on their end, they helped us structure it and provided guidelines for how to edit it. As we went through the script revisions, they presented the illustration concepts. We approved the style and they created the animation using our brand’s colors. The final product ultimately became the centerpiece for our rebranded website.

What was your vendors' project management or feedback process?

It was a very smooth process. We used email, Google Sheets, and Google Drive for sharing revisions.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The final video met my expectations and was of high quality. We’ve received many compliments on the final product from staff and site visitors alike. I’d definitely consider using Studio Pigeon in the future.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The project manager was quick to address all of our questions and concerns. Our biggest challenge, which was pretty minor, was waiting 24 hours for each new round of revisions or being unable to communicate in real time due to time zone differences.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

I was amazed by their illustration and video production capabilities. Their turnaround time was also impressively quick.

Are there any areas for improvement?

We’re very satisfied overall with the work we received. As I mentioned above, there's a bit of a lag in communication due to the time zone—it’s not because the team is unresponsive. We also ran into minor delays due to their staff being out for holidays, but that didn’t detract from how much I enjoyed working with them.

BACKGROUND

I'm the marketing coordinator at Leveret, a brand that prides itself on providing the coziest matching sleepwear for the entire family!

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Studio Pigeon?

We needed to produce an animated video for promoting our product and brand.

What were your goals for this project?

Our objective was to create a short video to use for ad and website purposes. We wanted to communicate a feeling of childlike innocence and nostalgia, which Studio Pigeon grasped perfectly.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

Our team searched online for a list of vendors, and we loved Studio Pigeon right away. We admired their portfolio and previous work.

Describe the video(s) and the process in detail.

They were extremely attentive to our desires and needs and worked hand-in-hand with us to deliver exactly what we required. They also provided their expertise each step of the way, which we appreciated and took into consideration.

What was your vendors' project management or feedback process?

The feedback process was mainly through email as we're located in the U.S. and they're in Poland.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Many customers email us to tell us that they love the video! It has performed exceptionally well on Instagram.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The workflow was extremely effective. The process sailed smoothly as they listened to us and seamlessly implemented our recommendations.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m the founder and principal of Behaviour Change Partners, a Sydney-based creative agency that specializes in social marketing projects for governments and NGOs.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Studio Pigeon?

We wanted to produce a two-minute animated video that clearly communicated our message with memorability and style.

What were your goals for this project?

The goal of the video is to influence targeted solicitors to raise the topic of bequests to charities whenever they write a legal will for a client.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We asked three firms to pitch us their ideas. Studio Pigeon outperformed the two Sydney-based animation studios. They produced by far the best treatment, offering excellent creative thinking and value for money as well as being the most enthusiastic.

Describe the video(s) and the process in detail.

We provided the approved script and a guide voiceover. Working from that, Studio Pigeon first developed a storyboard in their proposed style of flat 'collage' animation. Once approved, they went through several stages of animation development, eventually arriving at the final. From there, they completed the video by applying sound design, final voiceover, and music.

What was your vendors' project management or feedback process?

My main project management contact handled all issues and feedback as it came up. I also was able to speak directly with the art directors and animators as needed throughout the process.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The video has been very well received by clients and key stakeholders, including the target market of solicitors.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

I had some initial concerns about working with animators in a different time zone, and whose first language was not English. My worry was unfounded as there was never a problem. The different time zones worked to our advantage on a number of occasions. I could send my feedback at the end of the day Sydney time, and have a well-considered response from Studio Pigeon first thing the following morning.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Studio Pigeon was extremely efficient, and the team was very nice to work with. They offered excellent value. I had no complaints at all.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Everything was as I hoped and expected. It would be unreasonable to expect the next level of creativity and production without a considerably higher price point.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m the co-founder of Alpha, an on-demand insights platform. We enable teams to make data-driven decisions about users, products, and new markets.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Studio Pigeon?

We hired Studio Pigeon to help us create an explainer video.

What were your goals for this project?

We have a sophisticated offering and wanted to visually explain how it works, in under 90 seconds, to anyone.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

Studio Pigeon had a really impressive portfolio and was very affordable.

Describe the video(s) and the process in detail.

They worked with us to storyboard the project, and then on multiple design iterations, until we were happy.

What was your vendors' project management or feedback process?

They provided recommendations based on what they’d seen work in the past, but overall, gave us the creative freedom to do what we wanted.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We've had 7,000+ video plays in two to three years, and people who watch the video are much more likely to request a demo than are people who don't watch the video.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

We were a small team at the time and Studio Pigeon moved very quickly. The workflow was agile and effective.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Their turnaround speed and affordability stood out to us.

Are there any areas for improvement?

The voiceovers could’ve been a bit better.
