Animation studios and motion designers: how this course applies to yours
The course is taught by the founder of a working animation studio (Animators) and covers what a studio actually does to win clients: positioning, showreels, a pipeline of enquiries, and clients who come back.
Small animation studios
Start with unique selling proposition, positioning and animation showreels and demo reels, so clients see the fit before the first call, then client retention and reputation management to turn one project into repeat work and referrals.
Freelance animators and motion designers
For freelancers the branding, social media and online presence and website optimization lessons cover presenting your style and variety of work in a way that brings commissions rather than just followers.
Video production and creative agencies
The industry partnerships and collaborations, thought leadership and content marketing and industry events and conferences lessons cover growing through other studios, production companies and festivals.
What you will have finished by the end
- A positioning statement that says what kind of animation you are best at, and for whom
- A showreel plan built for the clients you want
- A pipeline routine for enquiries
- A retention and referral routine for past clients
