10 Motion Graphic Designs from a Leading Animation Agency

Killer Visual Strategies was founded as Killer Infographics in 2010. Although we got our start making infographics, our studio soon began delivering high-quality animation in the form of motion graphics as our agency’s 2nd major offering. This means we’ve created a wealth of animated videos that we’re excited to share with you! 

Some of the Best Motion Graphics We’ve Produced at Our Animation Agency

Here you’ll find a sampling of the best videos we’ve created for clients in industries from government to health care, tech to finance. Each one was created by our in-house team of content editors, designers, animators, and producers, and tailored specifically to the goals of that project. That means we began with a kickoff to introduce the project team and learn more about the company, audience, goals, and preferences. This process ensures that no 2 videos are alike. Every one of our clients ends up with a video that is strategically crafted to appeal to their target audience.

It’s certainly hard to pick favorites, so if you want to see even more animated videos, you can check out our full portfolio of motion graphics. In the meantime, here’s a sample of the variety of animations, live-action overlays, and more branded video content that our agency has produced.

Power and transportation technology specialists Cummins have ample and ongoing visual communication needs. Knowing this, we first worked with them to develop a visual language that would suit internal and external audiences alike. From there, we created diverse visual content to share their vision for the future of fuels and transportation. One such piece was a motion graphic introducing their PowerDrive™ technologies.

When the sports-equipment manufacturers at Riddell and the 3D-printing specialists at Carbon wanted to develop a revolutionary football helmet, they joined forces to make it happen. They wanted to produce a design that was safer and more breathable than any other helmet by creating a customized interior helmet liner. And they needed an agency to develop animations showcasing the unique process of printing the liners. The team at Killer Visual Strategies’ in-house studio in Seattle created a series of short-form motion graphics, or GIFs, to meet this goal.

Custom apparel provider Sportiqe was pursuing a renewed focus on wholesale and the B2B market. To establish an advantage over lower-priced competitors, they knew that an engaging and consistent visual presence would be key. So Killer first helped Sportiqe to update its look and feel. Next, our studio developed a motion graphic detailing the value of Sportiqe products. We then went on to update their homepage and develop a brochure explaining the company’s production process.

With a 10th-anniversary celebration coming up and a 3-week deadline looming, Zillow needed a video showcasing the company’s highlights over the past decade — and fast. We worked with the team at Zillow to create an animated timeline sharing key moments in the organization’s history. The story begins with their launch in 2006. It follows milestones all the way to the release of their Premier Agent platform in 2015, finally landing on the 10-year mark in February 2016. The video also sets the tone for achievements over the next decade.

For its 2016 GeekWire Awards event, GeekWire wanted an intro video produced by a local animation agency that not only showcased the local Seattle tech scene, but placed special emphasis on the success of women in tech. With that in mind, the team at Killer created a fictional character named Allison, who represented female leaders and innovators. This cinematic motion graphic follows Allison throughout her life. She loses a loved one as a child, but this experience motivates her to achieve a medical breakthrough that would change lives forever.

Faced with a new initiative driven by evergreen content and a message of relating to its current and potential policyholders, PEMCO approached us for help with visual content. With our animation agency’s in-house studio of marketers, writers, designers, and animators, we conceptualized and created 15 short motion graphic animations aligning with PEMCO’s goals. The result? Unprecedented engagement on social media, with views, likes, and shares all seeing groundbreaking gains.

EPIX was preparing to launch a new documentary called Deep Web. To amp up the pending release, we worked with them to develop an explainer video. This motion graphic explains concepts like the history of the Silk Road and how the deep web works. We looked to move away from the common metaphors that other deep-web content hubs had produced. Instead, we created a unique concept with abstract art direction to stand out from the crowd.

Caradigm provides education and programs to help organizations mitigate employee population health risks. We developed a motion graphic that would explain their purpose and the need for employer population health solutions.

The National Endowment for the Arts needed a visual refresh that could speak to a wide array of audiences — most notably legislators, government officials, millennials, and Generation Z.
