About

Motion with a point to make,and a deep love of brands, storytelling and design.

Philosophy

We’re an animation studio, and a creative partner. In the room early, honest about what’ll work, still there when it ships. In an industry that gets louder and faster every year, we stay committed to the simple things: clear ideas, considered craft, people you can actually talk to. Our goal is to make work that pulls its weight for your brand, and be a partner you’d call again.

We make brand and product films, motion for the web and visuals for stages and screens, for brands, agencies and event teams. Each project gets senior specialists picked for that job, with one creative direction running through all of it. We keep pace with the tools changing how motion gets made, using them wherever they help an idea land harder and travel further.

Made across time zones. Directed from one desk.

Anima works with people in New York, Berlin, Taipei and a few places in between. The right specialist for your project is rarely on the same street, so the bench reaches wherever the talent lives.

The direction never moves, though. One studio, one phone call, the same person from the first brief to the last frame, wherever the work’s being made.

  • Feedzai
    “Anima was detailed, meticulous and incredibly fast on Feedzai’s Agentic AI product video. They turned abstract concepts into dynamic visuals and revised quickly with feedback, so the narrative and visuals supported one another seamlessly. Anima prioritised collaboration throughout and were determined to deliver the highest quality. We would be thrilled to work with them again.”
    Dan HolmesVP of Product Planning & Strategy, Feedzai

One studio, one director.
In the room from day one.

Anima is founder-led. Christian directs every project from the first call to the final file, and the specialists around him are picked per project rather than carried between them.

Book a call and it’s him you’ll be talking to, about the idea, the people it’s for and what the work has to do.
