Motion Graphics & Animation
When it's hard to film, animate it.
Motion graphics and animation bring ideas, products and data to life through moving design — explainer videos, animated ads, logo animations, 2D character animation, 3D product animation and animated infographics. Nebula Brand Labs creates animation that makes complex things simple, adds polish to live-action films and keeps your brand moving across every screen.
About the service
Some stories can't be filmed. A fintech app's back end, the inside of a skincare product, a process that takes months, or an idea that only exists on paper — animation lets you show what cameras can't, often faster and more cost-effectively than a full shoot.
Our motion team blends design, storytelling and timing. Whether it's a 60-second explainer, a punchy animated Instagram ad or a 3D product reveal, we build animation that's clear, on-brand and made to hold attention.

Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between motion graphics and animation?
Motion graphics usually means animated design elements — text, shapes, icons, charts and logos. Animation is a broader term that includes character animation, illustrated stories and 3D. Many projects combine both.
Should I choose animation or live-action video?
Animation works best when you need to explain something abstract or technical, show what can't be filmed, update content easily or avoid the cost and logistics of a shoot. Live-action works best for emotion, people and real-world credibility. We'll recommend the right approach — or a mix — for your goal.
How long should an explainer video be?
For most products and services, 60 to 90 seconds is ideal. That's long enough to explain the problem, solution and benefits without losing attention. We also create 15- to 30-second versions for ads and social media.
How long does an animation project take?
A simple motion graphics video or logo animation takes one to three weeks. A 60–90 second explainer usually takes four to six weeks. 3D animation and longer films can take six to ten weeks, depending on complexity.
Can you animate our product in 3D?
Yes. Using product images, dimensions or CAD files, we create 3D models and animate them for reveals, feature highlights, exploded views and ads — often without needing a physical shoot.
Do you provide voiceover and music?
Yes. We handle scriptwriting, professional voiceover in English and regional languages, licensed music and sound design, so the animation is complete and ready to publish.
Can we make changes after the animation is done?
We build in approval points at the script, style frame and storyboard stages so major changes happen early, when they're quick and inexpensive. Small edits after animation are included; larger changes at that point may affect the timeline and cost.
How much does an explainer or animated video cost?
It depends on the length, style (motion graphics, 2D character or 3D), level of detail and number of versions. We'll share a clear quote once we understand your script and style preferences.
