Case Studies
TNR created a patented concept for a cell phone innovation and needed an explainer video to present to potential investors and manufacturers. She first turned to an online marketplace that promises high quality content for low prices. Unfortunately, the video she received didn’t come close to presentable, let alone “high quality.” A mutual acquaintance put her in touch with one of our sales representatives.
After discussing the client’s goals, we provided strategic advice for writing the script and created a fully animated explainer video complete with a prototype of the device in action. Later in development, the client requested a second video to expound on certain features. Both products were delivered on time and beyond the client’s expectations.

Later in development, the client requested a second video to expound on certain features. Both products were delivered on time and beyond the client’s expectations.
The client had a brilliant concept for a piece of medical equipment and was recommended to commission a video ad to send to potential investors. However, the client hesitated because the scope required a team, which his strict budget would not allow.
Our portfolio of detailed 3D models convinced him to hire us. We discussed what was achievable within his budget, then got to work.
Not only did we deliver a high-quality explainer video that blended 2D & 3D animation and live action footage well under the budget, we used a portion of the remaining budget to create a detailed infographic related to the video.

Tim Harrell is the head of a notable leadership ministry that reaches hundreds of business executives and entrepreneurs. He approached us for a landing page for an upcoming seminar.
Late in development, the client realized that he needed more on the page than initially anticipated. This would’ve required a complete redesign, which would exceed the client's budget, so we helped him decide which aspects of his ideal design were essential and adjusted from there. Our development process allowed for the flexibility to make these changes without incurring too much additional cost.
The client was so pleased with the result, he asked for an email campaign to help market the page.

“Open Door has provided me excellent service both in quality, but even more important in advice and counsel. The first project they produced for Catalyst Cohorts was an animation of the issues facing small business owners and the solution that our Peer-to-Peer CEO groups uniquely provide. Open Door not only produced the animation but they also helped with the color, branding, and how to best present the problems facing small business and how we could best explain our solutions. My second project has a larger in fact global impact, for a related not-for-profit organization. Here Open Door took the time again to understand the problem and our unique solution set. They then helped to create the best color palette to address the emotional aspects of the issue. Next a slide deck was story boarded and then produced. This power point presentation is a key resource in our sales process when we seek new partners. Open Door is a trusted and quality resource that provides great value not just in price but also in the planning and execution of the project.”

Animation Awards
FAQ
We are a full-service marketing agency and have a holistic approach to animation. We care that our services fulfill your objectives. This is why we offer services designed to help increase your chances of success every step of the way. We go the extra mile, offering additional marketing and advertising services to maximize your return on investment.
We understand how much your brand means to you, and we want to play a role in helping you grow and expand. That’s why we learn as much about your business and goals as we can to capture the personality and essence of your brand, in every aspect of your animation.
Our award-winning production team consists of storytellers, writers, marketers, animators, and even business strategists. Our combined expertise creates high-quality, fully customized productions that enhance your brand and resonate with your target audience, helping you fulfill each of your marketing objectives.
Are you ready to get started? Get in touch with us today, and let us help you expand your territory!
Many decisions influence the final cost of animation, such as deadlines, the run-time, art style, animation method, complexity, voice-over cost, and market research. The process is a collaborative one, where together, we work with you explaining the value and price of each decision and how it will impact your final cost. Because every brand is unique, we aim to create unique styles to fit you.
It helps to price animation in one-minute increments. At ODMS, high quality, fully custom animations with deep market research typically range from $5,000 to $12,000 per minute. We recommend videos of this quality for brands who serve a broad audience, and the total cost of the animation is no more than one-quarter of their total marketing budget.
We offer animations at an excellent value for companies with tighter budgets, typically starting at $2,750 per minute. These animations get the job done with fewer customizations and fewer bells and whistles. To get an accurate quote, get in touch with us today to see which options are best suited to your goals and budget.
Our production process typically takes four to eight weeks, depending on client feedback and changes requested along the way.
As much as we love animation, it can be a tedious process that requires a broad range of skill sets, including writers, art directors, designers, animators, special effects artists, and marketers.
Of course! For tighter deadlines, just let us know, and we can adjust our production schedule to speed up the process. Bear in mind, the cost may increase to accommodate the tighter deadline, as we’ll be working around the clock to deliver on time.
The first step is to contact us, either by phone at 757 689 7715, email at sales@opendoorms.com, or by scheduling a consultation with one of our business development representatives. The call should take no more than 30 minutes.
We’ll ask questions about your objectives and any ideas you may already have during our first engagement. From there, we’ll explain each step in our production process, so there are no surprises.
Once you’ve decided to work with us, we will send you a contract agreement to sign. Once signed and after the initial payment is made, production can begin. Our process is usually broken up into multiple phases, and payment is due before starting each phase.
We accept bank transfers and credit card payments with a 3% processing fee.
