What did you find most impressive about this company?

Honestly, everything was great. Although for me what stood out, was the final product in relation to the briefing, sometimes it can be hard to brief teams on creative ideas, often the outcome is not what you expected/visualized in your head. Every time I briefed Video Panda on an idea, they produced a better outcome than what was in my head. This allowed me to not have to worry about what the outcome was going to be on future products with tight deadlines and allowed me to focus on other areas of the project.

Are there any areas for improvement?

Everything was fantastic.
