SCENE 01 / MOTION GRAPHICS
Motion Graphics
Dynamic motion graphics and animation that bring visual storytelling to life through creative design and technical excellence.
Motion graphics combine graphic design, typography, and animation to create dynamic visual content for titles, lower thirds, data visualizations, explainer sequences, and branded content. These animated elements communicate information and enhance visual storytelling through movement, timing, and design sophistication.
We connect you with motion graphics artists and studios who deliver polished animated content for your production. Our team coordinates creative briefs, style development, and revision cycles to ensure your motion graphics are visually compelling, on-brand, and technically ready for integration into your final deliverable.

On Location
After Effects, Cinema 4D, and broadcast graphics pipelines across Auckland and Wellington
Here is how this works in practice. We staff motion-graphics designers and animators out of Auckland and Wellington — Imagezoo, The Outfit, Pop Productions, Resolved Pictures, Top Films, BluBlu Studios, Mukpuddy Animation, and Plot Point Productions all run After Effects, Cinema 4D, Houdini for procedural broadcast graphics, and Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop for vector and texture pipelines. Real-time graphics for live broadcast (Sky Sport NZ, TVNZ, Three) run Unreal Engine and Unity (Auckland and Christchurch have strong Unity heritage given Unity Technologies' Weta FX acquisition).
Typical project scope includes broadcast title-sequences for TVNZ+, ThreeNow, Neon, and Sky NZ. Commercial motion graphics for Saatchi & Saatchi Auckland, Colenso BBDO, and DDB. Rugby and cricket lower-thirds for Sky Sport NZ. And short-form social-media motion graphics for Air New Zealand, Tourism NZ, ANZ, and Fonterra campaigns. Output ships at H.264, H.265, ProRes, and DNxHR mezzanines through Frame.io for client review.
Here is the short of it. NZ motion-graphics heritage runs through the Lord of the Rings title sequences (designed in Wellington, finished at Park Road Post), Avatar's 2009 and 2022 graphical-data displays designed at Weta, Power of the Dog title work (2021), and Thor: Ragnarok title sequences (Waititi 2017) which leaned into 1980s graphics nostalgia. Black Magic Design's Auckland HQ puts Fusion compositing tools today's. Unity Technologies' The capital office (post-Weta FX acquisition) is a global hub for real-time motion-graphics development. Te reo Māori typography — macron-correct rendering of vowels — follows the 1987 Language Act. Pacific-language graphics work covers Samoan, Tongan, Cook Islands Māori, and Niuean for Pasifika campaigns. Privacy Act 2020, AWS Auckland Region, GST 15 percent, NZD, ACC cover.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What motion graphics software do you use?
Our primary tools include Adobe After Effects for 2D animation and motion design, Cinema 4D and Maya for 3D work, and Houdini for complex simulations. We select the best tool for each project and can accommodate specific pipeline or format requirements.
Can you match our existing brand guidelines?
Yes, we work closely with brand guidelines to ensure all motion graphics align with your visual identity. We can work from style guides, reference materials, or develop new visual systems that complement your existing brand while adding dynamic motion elements.
What's your typical turnaround time?
Turnaround depends on project complexity. Simple lower thirds or logo animations can be completed in days, while elaborate title sequences or explainer videos may take several weeks. We'll provide accurate timelines during the briefing process and can accommodate rush schedules when needed.
Do you create graphics packages for episodic content?
Yes, we regularly develop comprehensive graphics packages for series and episodic content. This includes designing flexible template systems that maintain visual consistency while allowing for episode-specific variations, making production efficient across multiple episodes.
