Monetha - blockchain technology solving the trust problem in on-line purchases

Back in the day, before the on-line shopping, trading had been a physical experience. It was basen on relations and trust. This trust had been weakened when more and more unfair sellers started to use Internet to scam buyers. But thanks to the blockchain technology this problem can soon be dealt with. That’s because it evaluates the participants’ transactions and previous activities related to buying and selling. That’s the power of the blockchain technology right in your fingertips!

Feedback summary: 

Audiences responded positively to the videos, and schools have been open to modifying their curriculum to include coding instruction. BluBlu demonstrated genuine passion for animation, which pushed them to exceed end-client expectations. They’re a personable, cooperative, highly-creative partner.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m the owner of Print. Paint. I provide freelance screenwriting, directing, and copywriting services.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire BluBlu Studios?

I needed to produce two animated videos for my client regarding coding and IT education for children. 

What were your goals for this project?

We wanted to make interesting commercial spots for children and teachers that would explain how important and fun coding and IT education is.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

I’d worked with this animation studio before and knew their team was creative, open-minded, and flexible. When I went to BluBlu Studios with this project, they gave me a very attractive offer and had brilliant ideas.

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

BluBlu was responsible for all production stages excluding scriptwriting and directing. They also dealt with storyboarding, creative direction, illustrations, animation, and sound design. A dedicated producer and creative director managed the process. It took us a few weeks to complete the video.

What was your vendors' project management or feedback process?

I faced a short time frame, so we were in touch throughout the production process. BluBlu was very helpful, responsive, and open, and we worked well together. They were creative and precise too.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The spots have been a big success at several conferences and meetings on education. Thanks to this project, many schools in Poland have incorporated coding lessons into their curriculum. Our client acquired many new partners as well.

BluBlu’s workflow perfectly matched my client's needs and expectations. They planned everything perfectly.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

This is a group of passionate people who are real specialists. They love creating animations, and they excel at it. Every project has the same value to them. Cooperating with them is always an enjoyable and positive experience.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire BluBlu Studios?

Our company has developed an innovative bare-metal cloud platform that shifts our focus to a completely different target customer segment. The challenge was to create an informative yet succinct promo video that would be a catchy overview of our new services.

Feedback summary: 

The video received high praises at press conferences and earned over 6,500 views on YouTube. BluBlu Studios stands out from the competition thanks to their reasonable price structure and strong animation experience.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I’m an online marketing manager at Telematics Technologies. Our company started as a NaviExpert supplier, offering one of the first mobile apps to navigate traffic jams. Since then, we’ve evolved our services by partnering with LINK4 (PZU Group) to implement the Kasa Wraca program, which is the first usage-based insurance solution in Poland.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire BluBlu Studios?

To promote the Kasa Wraca program, we needed to easily explain its core principles to a wide range of potential clients. We engaged BluBlue Studios to create an animated explainer video to go over the program in an informative yet light-hearted way.

What were your goals for this project?

Our goal was to promote the program through a comprehensive video. The video would be featured on YouTube and on the LINK4 Kasa Wraca website.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We had worked with BluBlu Studios before on another project, so we already had a good grasp of their capabilities. Although we looked into other candidates, BlueBlu Studios had the strongest portfolio and the best rates.

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

We provided BluBlu Studios with an initial vision of the film along with a working storyboard. After becoming acquainted with our ideas, they finalized the script, refined the storyboard, and presented a series of static images to demonstrate the general animation style. Once we approved, they produced the animation within a few days and worked with us to perfect it. The final steps involved recording the voices and adding the soundtrack.

What was your vendors' project management or feedback process?

I worked with two points of contact to coordinate the project. 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The video was well-received at press conferences and gained over 6,500 views on YouTube.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

It was a pleasure to work with BluBlu Studios. We communicated efficiently via email, and they consulted with us on a regular basis during each stage of production. If we had any inquiries, they responded to our questions within a business day, which allowed us to finish the project on time. They gave concrete, factual answers while still being casual and approachable.​​​​​​​

What did you find most impressive about this company?

I was impressed with their knowledge about animation production and their timeliness.​​​​​​​

Are there any areas for improvement?

No, I can’t think of anything to improve at the moment. I was happy with the collaboration.

What challenge were you trying to address with BluBlu Studios?

We were about to release our website and needed someone to work on the video explainer of the technology as well as some custom artwork for the website and brochures.

BluBlu Studios developed our animated video explainer using characters they created. We used those illustrated characters for some merchandise and marketing material as well.

What is the team composition?

The project lead was our sales representative who managed the team on their end.

How did you come to work with BluBlu Studios?

I was looking for illustration providers. I knew there were some strong ones in this area. We chose BluBlu Studios based on their portfolio. They had good work but also a style that was in line with what we wanted for our brand.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together from July to November 2018.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

We haven't yet released the video or other materials so don’t have any results or impact yet. The artwork looks great. People that I’ve shown their work so far have been impressed. It’s exactly what we were looking for.

How did BluBlu Studios perform from a project management standpoint?

I communicated with the project lead who would send me outputs on the deadlines. They were diligent and always delivered on time. We often asked for changes, which they would always make and on time.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Their work capacity. They did a lot of high-quality work very quickly. The artwork meets high standards.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Not really. Nothing that's worth mentioning.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

In our case, we knew what we wanted and provided them with a detailed brief. That worked well for us. I would suggest other clients take a similar approach.

The Review
Feedback summary: 

The video's clear, credible presentation earned rave reviews from early audiences. Through a structured yet flexible creative process, BluBlue Studios kept the project within deadline and budget. Their team accommodated scope changes and delivered a polished, effective marketing resource. 

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm the communication manager and spokesperson of the University Hospital in Brussels. In 2009, I began a PhD focusing on the doctor-patient relationship. The thesis explained patient empowerment and gave insight into complex of power dynamics.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire BluBlu Studios?

BluBlu Studios produced a unique explainer video to promote my doctoral thesis. I plan to use the video on websites, upload it to YouTube, and show it during trainings and speeches. 

What were your goals for this project?

Power dynamics in the doctor-patient relationship are based on a complex theoretical framework. A perception of complexity can interfere with application in the field. The video needed to make the theoretical framework visually accessible and bolster the credibility of the theoretical analysis.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

I found BluBlu Studios through their professional, creative website.

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

I didn't expect BluBlu Studios to analyze my thesis. Instead, I sent them a basic script with amateur drawings. After on a Skype consultation, we agreed on a timeline and process. They sent me a mood board, from which I chose colors and character stylings, and delivered a script with text, drawings, and motion descriptions. After exchanging adjustments, they invited me to comment on the first version.

What was your vendors' project management or feedback process?

Two BluBlu Studios employees were involved, and it was clear who my contact would be. Through regular email updates, they gave a clear overview of project phases and deadlines. The process was simultaneously formal and informal. It's challenging for a company to apply clear project management procedures while developing a personal relationship.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

I plan to use the film widely, but have already shown it to small groups and individuals. I always get positive comments. The video looks professional and is subtitled in Dutch and English, which is crucial for mobile users. Even more importantly, its message and story come across as intended. It achieves its objective!

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

BluBlu Studios applied a transparent, effective process. We never wasted time or effort.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

BluBlu Studios always understood what I wanted. They were reliable, flexible, and respectful of my deadlines and budget. They produced the film in three months, which was exactly what I wanted, and charged an honest price. The film grew a bit longer than planned, but that didn't ruin me. I enthusiastically recommend BluBlu Studios.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Honestly, there were none. I was extremely satisfied with the result and with every aspect of the collaboration. I would work with BluBlu Studios again without hesitation. They deserve the highest praise I can give.

Feedback summary: 

BluBlu Studios produced a high-caliber animated video and finalized a selection of speakers and lectors. Since it launched on the site, the video has garnered widespread approval and increased signups among the target user base. The team maintained a seamless workflow.

 

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the CEO of SavingCloud.pl, a Polish startup. We provide B2B and B2C solutions for the e-commerce fast-moving consumer goods (e-FMCG) market.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire BluBlu Studios?

We were looking for a video production studio that could help us create our showcase video.

What were your goals for this project?

Our goal was to explain what we do and why customers should use our product using a one-minute video.  

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We selected BluBlu Studios over other vendors because their previous work matched our style.

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

Our project centered on creating a showcase and explainer video for our new B2C product. We explained our service offerings to BluBlu in detail and asked them to write a script that was easy to understand. They wrote very good material, and we had a final version after just a few iterations.

After we compiled and iterated on a screenplay, we created a few sample video animations. BluBlu Studios produced what we needed after 3–4 interactions.  At the end of the process, they provided a set of lectors and speakers for us to choose from. A few days later, we had the final video completed.

What was your vendors' project management or feedback process?

We were in contact with a project manager who handled all our requests.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We’ve displayed the video BluBlu Studios produced on our main website. Our customers have given us excellent feedback about it. Since we uploaded this new feature, we’ve seen a notable increase in the number of signups we receive from our site.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The workflow was very smooth. BluBlu Studios handled all our requests on the same day or by the next working day.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

BluBlu Studio’s designers are the best of the best. We love working with them.

Are there any areas for improvement?

There is nothing to improve from what I can tell.

The Review
Feedback summary: 

The award-winning video has been well received, even by non-industry users. Collaborative and eager from the outset, BluBlu demonstrated a genuine desire to deliver exceptional quality. The team’s diligence, enthusiasm, and attention to detail ensured a compelling and articulate final product.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I own Skirmish, an online game development showcase platform that draws various talents from across the industry so they can connect with each other, find jobs, or hire resources.  

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire BluBlu Studios?

We hired BluBlu to create a one-minute animated explainer video. 

What were your goals for this project?

We wanted a fun way to educate people on the idea behind Skirmish, increase brand awareness, and grow our user base. 

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We searched for and interviewed several vendors. BluBlu Studios was interested and invested even before committing. Having clearly studied the site, they understood what I needed and already had some ideas. 

Describe the project in detail.

BluBlu handled the project from strategy and scripting to the final production. They gleaned some ideas from my initial script, but developed a better story and approach. We collaborated on the voiceover, which was the only component completed outside of the studio. We worked through several iterations of editing as needed. 

What was the team composition?

A host of people contributed to the project, from scriptwriters and storyboard artists to animators and producers. Even the CEO was involved.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The final video production exceeded my expectations, eventually winning several awards, including the Muse Award. Feedback has been incredibly positive, such as, “Even though I’m not into game development, this video makes me want to get into it!” 

How was project management arranged and how effective was it?

The workflow was smooth, effective, and creative. Their desire to create something extraordinary was palpable.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

They were passionate about the project, preferring a patient delivery over a rush job. 

Are there any areas for improvement?

There are none that I can think of.
