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

The project was to create an explainer video presenting our company and the latest product news. I wanted it to be colorful, creative, and fun. After the initial scoping call we landed on a stomp typography 3D explainer video, with a mix of images (some animated by the designer) and a self-provided GIF.

The music was chosen by the professional and was perfect for our video. I delivered the script and then we had to milestones for draft 1 and draft 2. The first draft was so post on and well made, so we only needed a few tweaks prior to having a second draft. I also asked for two versions of the video, one with sound and one muted.

• A high quality video delivered on budget, on time and with a smooth process.

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

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

We design and build anaerobic digestion facilities (renewable energy from organic waste). I am the Director of Business Operations.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

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

We wanted to produce an animated video that shows how our technology works, to help potential clients understand. The process has many steps and uses many smaller pieces of equipment within the system. We hoped an animation could simplify everything and make it understandable.

SOLUTION

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

We chose this vendor because we liked the style of their previous work.

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

We first submitted a storyboard and equipment photographs and diagrams to the vendor. Then we had a video call where we sketched out how the different pieces were integrated and how we wanted to see it animated. The vendor began to digitize the images and scenes, and came back to show us the still images first to see if we were ok with the style and the level of detail.

We would have a video call to review these images together so that the vendor understood clearly what our recommendations and comments referred to. Often within a few days, those revisions had been made and we began on a new round of revisions, until we reached a stage where we were happy with the final animation.

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

I worked with Chehak and she was very responsive to all my messages and comments. It was her suggestion to have video calls while describing the changes we wanted, and she recorded these calls. I think this was a really good idea. It is a complex technology, but she did a great job understanding what we wanted to communicate.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The video that was produced is exactly what we imagined we were going to get. We have not put the video in use yet, but it is our hope that this will greatly simplify our sales process and really cut down on our sales cycle time, which is a big limiting factor for us at this moment.

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

Chehak was extremely responsive to all my messages and always very courteous and professional. In reality, it was Chehak who kept me on task if I didn't respond to her requests for revisions in a timely manner.

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

Their ability to understand how the technology is integrated really impressed me.

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

In retrospect, I might have liked to see a few different styles for the animation at the start of the project to choose from, but I'm sure that if I had asked, they would have been willing to do so.
