Basically they teach managers how to help their employees to be happier and create better work environments. Amrit who hired me is a really nice guy and genuinely cares about making better working environments for people. He also gave <span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;">me a lot of creative freedom with the animation as he wanted an explainer animation that looked different and stood out.</span></div><div class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;"><div style="margin-bottom: 6px;">So I developed this ethereal animation style and used human hand metaphors to suit the abstract concepts within employee engagement. The colours and rendering of the animation area also designed to compliment the existing brand.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">For those interested in more technical parts - the hand animation was rotoscoped in After Effects from video footage of mine and my partner's hands.

They approached our <a href="http://www.mairperkins.co.uk/" target="_blank">animation studio</a> after seeing our other cause based animations. The charity is celebrating their 30th anniversary, and they wanted a time line motion graphics video to highlight their achievements and explain what the charity does to help disabled and disadvantaged people.<br />
<br />
We worked closely with their communications manager to plan the animation structure and how to combine motion graphics with live photo and film footage. Choice Support wrote a script which we edited it and adapted it for animation. Once Choice Support were happy with the script content and length, we began creating the animation visuals and storyboards.<br />
<br />
The finished video was screened at Choice Support's 30th anniversary celebration evening. The animated video is also embedded on their <a href="http://www.choicesupport.org.uk/index.php/component/content/article/7-about-us/223-30th-anniversary-animation%20" target="_blank">website</a>, shared on their social media channels and has been burned to DVDs to share with their service users.<br />

<br />
<br />
<b><u>The animation style</u></b><br />
<br />
Choice Support has an established brand that incorporates their values so we designed an animation style which would compliment their other marketing materials. They have also carried elements of the animation over into their latest printed marketing material. We sent the character illustration files to their designer to use so we have helped develop their branding and visual identity further.
It was important to include real footage of the people that Choice Support helps. So we designed a character illustration style that sensitively depicted disabled people. This was achieved by developing a few concepts, sending them for review then receiving feedback from the Choice Support team and using it to develop the final designs.

<br />
<br />
<b><u>The voice over and music
</u></b><br />
<br />
The animation's voice overs were done by two of Choice Support's trustees and are featured in the animation. Kevin went to a recording studio then delivered the raw sound file to us for editing. Helen came to the studio to record her voice over.
Our sound track supplier, <a href="http://www.haynesmusic.com/" target="_blank">Haynes Music Production</a>s wrote an original music score to add greater emotional depth to the video. Ben Haynes sent music style samples to Choice Support then created a composition based on their feedback. The score works in time with the pace of the animation and was edited to work with the narration and video clips.

<br />
<br />
<b><u>Project management
</u></b><br />
<br />
All of the project was conducted remotely between Choice Support's office in London and our studio in Derby via phone calls and emails.
At the beginning of the project we both agreed on a production schedule to ensure all project milestones were met so the animation was delivered in time for the 30th Anniversary celebrations. From beginning to delivery, the animated video took 6 weeks to produce.<br />

<b><u>Choice Support's feedback on the animation </u></b><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i> "Mair provided a fantastic service from beginning to end of the project. I am very happy with the animation she has created to celebrate our 30th anniversary. The charity I work for is called Choice Support. We support adults with learning disabilities and Mair took on board a very detailed brief to tell our story and sensitively draw up characters to represent the people we have supported over the last 30 years. I would recommend Mair to anyone looking for a professional, high quality but good value animation production service. "

<div style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #555555; font-family: 'Didact Gothic', 'Century Gothic', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.5em; vertical-align: baseline;">
We’ve been busy working on a big project for a client who has commissioned our animation studio to create an educational and environmental animation for young people. Names can’t be mentioned yet but the animation is due to be released in September 2014. So far the project has been a blast and we’re loving working with this client to produce various animation concepts.</div>
<div style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #555555; font-family: 'Didact Gothic', 'Century Gothic', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.5em; vertical-align: baseline;">
As part of the project we presented a few concepts and some animation examples to a group of young people and gathered feedback.</div>
<div style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #555555; font-family: 'Didact Gothic', 'Century Gothic', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.5em; vertical-align: baseline;">
The results showed that our target audience engages most with animations with the following traits…</div>
<ul style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #555555; font-family: 'Didact Gothic', 'Century Gothic', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; margin: 0px 0px 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 1.5em; vertical-align: baseline;">
<li style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">comedy (preferably edgy and slightly dark),</li>
<li style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">a catchy tune</li>
<li style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">bright colours</li>
<li style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">character animation</li>
<li style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">a funny voice over</li>
<li style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">a speedy delivery (between one and two minutes)</li>
<li style="background: transparent; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">a clever message.</li>
</ul>
<div style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #555555; font-family: 'Didact Gothic', 'Century Gothic', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.5em; vertical-align: baseline;">
Now it’s our job to take our client’s messages and turn it into an animation with all those qualities!</div>
<div style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #555555; font-family: 'Didact Gothic', 'Century Gothic', Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.5em; vertical-align: baseline;">
