Frameless Production Studio

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I work as a consultant, and I work for Bootleggers, a direct to consumer wine brand in Australia. They wholesale and distribute and sell directly to consumers.

What challenge were you trying to address with Frameless Production Studio?

I was looking to build a one-off project as well as a long-term relationship. I needed to visually describe what the company does in a creative and engaging way.

What was the scope of their involvement?

They created a rather different direct to consumer business model. You can have subscription models or websites selling stuff, but we’ve come up with something different. For that, we wanted explainer videos so people can visualize how something will work. I gave them a lot of free licenses to inject their own creativity. I also wanted it to be quite short so people wouldn’t get bored.

They developed an animated video that ended up being 30-seconds long. I wanted it to be shorter, but there was too much I wanted to cram into it. In the beginning, I put together the brief, which included the inspiration or examples of videos in the style that I liked, and wrote out what the narrative should be. For lack of a better word, we jammed on it really well. Before they animated, they did some of the frames, the key animations that go into the story. They really got what I wanted. There was great collaboration and creativity.

What is the team composition?

I thought I was dealing with one person, but I’m not really sure. There weren’t any issues though.

How did you come to work with Frameless Production Studio?

I hired them through Upwork. I looked at quite a few people, and what stood out with them was their quality of work. They have a nice creative quality, and a lot of other companies only have the technical skills. The second thing was that they had really good reviews. They were also the most reasonably priced.

How much have you invested with them?

I spent $5,400 with them.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked with them in February 2020.

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

People that I’ve shown it too love it. In my experience, it’s really good animation. They nailed it.

How did Frameless Production Studio perform from a project management standpoint?

I couldn’t fault them for the communication. They were super responsive and nothing was lost in the communication. They were really collaborative. Everything I said, they listened to and challenged where they needed to challenge to come to a good outcome. A lot of the time, we came to a better outcome. Everything ran smoothly, and they followed me up on stuff. It was like a dream.

What did you find most impressive about them?

I’ve worked with agencies for 15 years, and I was blown away by their work and how fast it was. The creativity is really good in my opinion. What I wasn’t expecting but was pleasantly surprised by was the client management skills, project management skills.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I don’t think there’s anything.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

It’s like engaging any agency: spend time on the brief. They were really appreciative of that. They loved the details and inspiration I provided. You have to help people understand what you’re trying to achieve.

We hired Frameless Production Studio to produce an explainer video

What were your goals for this project?

We wanted to increase conversion rates and brand awareness. We also wanted our service to be easy-to-understand, that's why we were highly interested in a simple, colourful and catchy animated video.

How did you select this vendor?

I searched for an appropriate video production company on the Internet, but soon after my partner recommended me Frameless Production Studio. They created for him an amazing video.

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

Once we selected the team, we had a number of meetings to discuss further stages and purposes. Within the first two days, we received a first draft of the script, considering minor changes, it was shortly approved. After a few Skype meetings, we finalized the storyboard and voice-over. The team came back to us with illustrations within a week. The illustrations were amazing, so that they started to animate them. At the last stage they provided us with awesome sound design. We were impressed by such a great result.

We provided feedback several times during the project.

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the founder and CEO of a technology firm.

What challenge were you trying to address with Frameless Production Studio?

We needed a marketing video.

What was the scope of their involvement?

I had the concept, and Frameless Production Studio did the creative direction, artwork, animation, and a bit of storytelling.

I gave them high-level directions in the script, and they then came up with the storyboard sketch. They converted the sketch into creative graphics and subsequently did the animation and postproduction.

What is the team composition?

I interacted with two people.

How did you come to work with Frameless Production Studio?

I found them on a freelancing website. We did screening interviews with 30–40 other people. I liked Frameless Production Studio’s portfolio.

Project management was good. The team was very receptive to feedback, and they redid things until I was fully satisfied. They gave regular updates and often provided multiple options.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Their artwork stands out a lot more than that of their peers. Even higher-priced studios probably wouldn’t be able to do this good of a job. The team was collaborative, and quality and communication were good.

Are there any areas they could improve?

They could speed up a little bit, but I believe this was a factor of the amount of feedback I gave. I pushed them to a high standard, so the length of time the project took was understandable.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Engage them; they’ve got some great ideas. They were able to take some of my ideas and redo them even better than I suggested. Don’t just give them a requirement, but accept their feedback.
