Motion Graphics Companies

In this post I will be looking further into the subject of motion graphics, this time examining the companies that make money out of producing them for others. Below are companies that I have found, each section summarises them and also shows examples of the work they produce.


1. Bexmedia http://www.bexmedia.net/
Bexmedia are a motion graphics company established in 2008 which work with local and international clients. Although they do normal motion graphics, the company specialises in using them for things such a presentations.
Below is an example of a motion graphics video they have produced in the form of an informative and promotional clip. In this they have combined simple motion graphics and typography with live action video.

2. Hurricane Media http://www.hurricanemedia.co.uk/
Hurricane Media are a specialist video and animation company, unlike the previous examples who also involve themselves in other aspects of art such as illustration. They have been established since 2005 and produce high quality motion graphics as a form of advertising for many companies. Again in this example they used a combination of real time footage with effective and subtle bits of animation and effects.


3. Bean Box http://www.beanboxanimation.co.uk/ Bean Box animation produce not only the common 3D motion graphics, but also create 2D animations.They specialise in:
-3D product motion graphics
-3D architectural motion graphics
-3D motion graphics for education
-2D motion graphics for websites
-2D and 3D idents
Here is an example of a motion graphics advertisement for Nokia. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXsLnIVfUaI



4. Shoot You Video Production http://www.shootyou-motion-graphics-production.co.uk/
Shoot You are a company that specialise solely on producing quality motion graphics. Their motion graphics have quite a modern and technical theme to them, some videos both using live action alongside normal digital work, whilst other rely on animation alone. To view an example of their work please visit this link:

5. Column Five http://www.columnfivemedia.com/ Are a large company which produce a wide variety of mediums, not only motion graphics. They offer services in illustrations, presentation designs, digital PR, infographics and many more. To see examples of the motion graphics they have produced visit their portfolio page here: http://www.columnfivemedia.com/work-types/motion-graphics




After researching the companies for this blog I have found that there aren't many large companies that solely concentrate on the production of motion graphics. Many of them integrate other services a long side. There are a small number of specialised comapnies, but each one seems to have a genre in which they create within.
