ABOUT THE ANIBOXX PROCESS

How long does it take to produce a video?
Depending on the length, style and various bespoke requirements such as music, it can take anywhere between 4-6 weeks to produce a video. What takes up the bulk time are developing a brief and signing off pre production. So this process can be sped up if a brief is drawn out before we begin. Otherwise we can help with this.

What is the process?
First we will work with you to develop a brief for your campaign.

After the brief has been signed off, our copywriters develop a professional script. We then storyboard the project before we go into full production.

The final video gets delivered in your desired format(s) after youve signed off each stage of the process.
