Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is 3D Animation?

3D animation is the process of creating moving images in a three-dimensional environment. This is done by using computer software to create and manipulate digital objects, or by using specialised hardware such as motion capture (mo-cap) devices.

This popular style of animation used in a wide variety of marketing applications like product demos, explainer videos, brand awareness videos, social media content and trade show booths to name just a few. It’s a versatile style that can be used to create a wide range of marketing content that is more engaging, informative, and shareable than traditional content.

The basic process of creating 3d animation includes modelling, rigging, animation and rendering. It’s a complex process but can also be very rewarding. 3D animators have the power to create anything they can imagine, and their work can be seen by millions of people around the world.

If you are interested in learning more about how 3D animation can help your Australian brand, we’d love to hear from you.

How can 3D animation benefit my Australian brand?

3D animation is a powerful tool in Australia that can help you to achieve your marketing goals and build a strong connection with your customers. Sydney and Melbourne brands love how it’s visually appealing, engaging, and informative, making it ideal for a variety of purposes, such as:

  • Create animated product videos that show off the features and benefits of your product in a visually appealing way.
  • Create brand videos that tell the story of your brand and its values.
  • Create educational animated videos that teach your customers about how to use your product or service.
  • Create social media videos that capture attention and encourage engagement.
  • Use 3D animation to create interactive experiences on your website or at trade shows.

No matter how you choose to use it, 3D animation can be a powerful tool for building and growing your brand.

If you’re looking for a 3D animation studio that’s passionate about their work, let’s talk! We’re creative, communicative, and flexible, and we’re eager to tell your story.

What is the process of creating a 3D animated video?

We create 3d animated videos in several stages. It starts with script development, where we work closely with you to understand your objectives and craft a compelling narrative to match.

Next up, we create storyboards and develop the look and feel of the 3d animation. We then proceed to build the asset library of 3d elements, build scenes and environments, and create an animatic to establish timing and composition.

Then comes our favourite part… animation. Here, we make everything move and essentially bring your video to life with charm, appeal and lots of attention to detail to elevate the production and make your audience say “Wow!”.

We then take all the movement and add materials and lighting to it via either a realistic or more stylised approach, whatever best suits your brand. Then we finish off with some compositing and special effects to enhance the visual impact.

Last of all, we perform colour grading to set the desired tone and add professional voice-over and sound design for a complete audiovisual experience.

We’re passionate about our work, and we’re always looking for new challenges. Contact us today and let’s see how we can help you tell your story.

What is the typical turnaround time for a 3D animated video?

The time it takes to make a 3D animated video depends on the complexity, length, and scope of the project. For a simple 3d video, we can turn it around in 3-4 weeks. Most 3D projects take 6-10 weeks, and very complex projects can take months. We’re committed to delivering high-quality work on time, but we need your help to streamline the process.

Tips for speeding up the 3D animation process:

  • Have a clear vision for what you’re after and communicate it to us in detail.
  • Provide reference materials, such as scripts, storyboards, and concept art.
  • Be responsive to feedback and make decisions quickly.
  • Be flexible with your budget and timeline.

By following these tips, you can help us create your 3D animated video quickly and efficiently.

At Motionlab, we believe that the best 3D animations are created through collaboration. That’s why we’re committed to working closely with our clients to bring their visions to life. Contact us today and let’s start collaborating on your next project.

What is the cost of creating a 3D animated video in Australia?

The cost of a 3D animated video depends on how complex it is, how long it is, and what it’s about. We offer competitive pricing tailored to your budget, but we also guarantee high quality.

As a general guide, basic, short 3D animated videos for our Sydney and Melbourne brands start at around $15,000. This doesn’t include character animation, soft materials, or complicated liquid or particle simulations.

If you’re looking for something more complex, such as a 10-15 minute short film in a realistic 3D style, the cost can exceed $100,000 or even $1 million. But most of our projects fall in the $25,000-$60,000 range, which offers a good return on investment.

What sets Motionlab apart from other 3d animation studios?

We’ve won awards, been praised by critics, and racked up millions of views on social media. But more importantly, we’ve helped our clients achieve their goals.

We’re not your average Sydney or Melbourne 3D animation studio. We’re not in it for the quick buck. We want to build long-term partnerships with our Australian clients and help them succeed.
