Our Process

Listen, Ask, Question, Clarify, Consult, Communicate, Improve, Agree.

Less haste, more speed.

There is no point going off like a bull at a gate just to get something smashed out in time for a deadline, if the work achieved at the end does not achieve the desired business outcomes.
We will always take more time at the beginning of a project than our competitors. We will ask more questions, ask ‘can we do better?’ and communicate in a clear and transparent way until we are all in agreement before proceeding to the next step. This may seem slower to begin with, but unlike most we rarely back over things and this increases project efficiency & saves time & money.

Our goals for you are simple; Produce work that is as-good or better than you expected. By the time you need it or sooner. Achieving the desired outcome or better.

Don't take our word for it, hear what our customer's say.

ILLUSTRATION

From 3D technical illustrations of products to hand drawn concept illustrations CA can also make sure your ideas come to reality in drawings. If it’s a specific technique you require we also have some excellent illustrators on hand that have worked for the likes of Warner Brothers.

Case Study

BRAND AMBASSADOR VIDEO

Video Editing, Art Direction

Creating a brand video with heart is never as easy as this. Jana Pittman is a dual Olympian, in training to be a paediatric doctor, mother of three, author on breastfeeding and huge advocate of Qiara’s range of probiotics. So just your average Mum then.

With the brief to create 6 videos plus still imagery, in just a 3 hour, it was a massive task, but the result are outstanding.

Client: Qiara

Case Study

Metro Trains

3D, Art Direction, Explainer Videos, Motion Graphics

Metro trains were looking for an engaging video intro to get their workers to pay attention to a video with a very serious message about property theft and the effects it has on the company and it’s employee’s.

This low-poly style of animation is a nod to the previous years TVC campaign run by Metro, but is also designed like this to enable vector illustrations of stills frames to be used in the accompanying print collateral.

The supporting animated infographics helped support rich documents to easily communicate the messaging.

Client: Metro Trains
Working with: Cozalive
