What we do

We are a creative studio specializing in brand design for (private e-commerce) brands and visual storytelling with a unique flair for illustration that has a distinctive, brand-tailored style. We transform brands from ordinary to memorable in less than 3 months, so that they stand out and catch the eye at first glance. We work with clients who have big ambitions to grow significantly, and provide them with the creative support they need to achieve their ambitious goals. And because we're gamers and we love the playfulness in projects, we love every gaming project as well!

Brand Design

We build unique illustrated corporate identities. Do you also see the importance of being different? Stand out from the crowd at every touchpoint with your customer! Let's talk about how to set your branding and visual identity so that it is unmistakable.

Illustration

We draw comic, cartoon, realistic, stylized or funny illustrations as a great and, above all, significant alternative to dull commercial photographs, which we come across today and every day on posters, products and their covers. The original illustrations from our workshop are much easier to attract and impress the viewer, because they are not yet suppressed by selective attention, as has happened with ordinary photographs and banners, which we are used to ignore.

Comics

We tell stories of brands, products or services. We create promotional, educational and entertaining comics with a wide range of comic book styles. We are able to create a script on a given topic and adjust the degree of visual styling according to the purpose of use and provide all this with professionally processed lettering. Whether it is short comic strips, one-page comics for a magazine or an entire comic book, you're at the right place with us.

Animated Videos

We create complete cartoon or stylized videos, 3D, explainer animations, bumpers or simple GIFs. Our screenwriter will write content on any topic or we will realize the ideas you provide. We will enrich the animation with sound design, music and also voiceover. We provide both the complete production of an animated spot and possibly only its illustrated/animated part.

Character Design

The avatars are a great means of communication for any brand, promotion of services or products and embodies the character of the brand.. The avatar/mascot can accompany the entire communication and marketing strategy, from printed materials such as leaflets and posters to newsletters, it can be used on social networks or as a guide on the web, in an e-shop or as the main character in videos.

Marketing

We build complete marketing campaigns and thanks to our rich experience from advertising and digital agencies, we can help you prepare campaigns in both the online and physical world. Our strong reach into digital, social networks and modern technologies will also help. Everything wrapped up in a strategy with strong visual differentiation.
