10 Motion Graphics Services Every Brand Needs in 2025

Stay Ahead of the Curve with These Essential Animation Tools to Elevate Your Brand’s Visual Storytelling

By Mirza Seo specialistPublished 9 months ago 8 min read

Ever scrolled through social media and found yourself captivated by a quick animated snippet—so mesmerized you actually forgot to scroll? That’s the power of motion graphics. It’s not just about pretty visuals bouncing across your screen. It’s about storytelling that moves (quite literally) and transforms how we experience a message. People crave content that feels alive—content that sparks curiosity, creates an emotional pull, and highlights a brand’s vibe in a matter of seconds.

What’s wild is how fast this medium has taken over. Not too long ago, folks were content with static posts, lifeless banners, or basic slideshow presentations. Then motion design waltzed in, changed everything, and left us thinking, “Why didn’t we tap into this sooner?” Now, especially as we head into 2025, motion graphics aren’t just an optional add-on. They’re the silent game-changers your brand desperately needs.

But which motion graphics services stand out? Which names are actually pushing the industry forward, offering stuff that could blow people’s minds instead of blending in with the crowd? Let’s jump in, brand by brand—no fluff, no filler—just the must-see agencies shaping motion design in the coming year.

Superside

Ever met a team that feels like your in-house creative squad, yet they’re scattered across the globe? That’s Superside for you. With a fully stacked group of 700 designers, animators, and creative thinkers, they’re not just pumping out one-off projects. They’re partnering with brands on a month-to-month basis, making sure the creative engine never stalls. A subscription starts at $6000 a month, but here’s the kicker: You skip those surprise invoices that sometimes sneak in when a project drags on.

What makes them the real deal is how they combine lightning-fast turnaround with seriously impressive animation. Think motion ads that grab eyeballs right away or animated presentations that transform dull data into a story you actually want to watch. They’ve pulled off head-turning campaigns for clients like Bolt, Reddit, and Marqeta. Not only that, the Superside approach isn’t about replacing your designers in-house—it’s about giving them the backup they need, 24/7. You know that feeling when you’re racing against a deadline, and there’s just too much on your plate? Superside swoops in, picks up the slack, and keeps everything running smoothly.

Duck.Design

Some studios show up on the scene quietly—then, before you know it, they’re everywhere. Duck.Design, launched in 2020, is a perfect example. You might think a studio that’s only a few years old might still be finding its footing, but these folks sprinted out of the gate. They handle anything from animated logos and GIFs all the way to explainer videos and slick 2D flicks.

Their portfolio is a who’s who of global brands: Burger King, Samsung, Virgin Media. The variety of styles they offer is huge. One minute, they’re crafting minimalist line-based animations. Next minute, they’re jumping into complex 2D narratives that feel like you’re watching a mini movie. If your business needs something with a burst of humor or an imaginative twist, Duck. Design could be your go-to. And with pricing from $1,899 per month, it’s an option that startups, small businesses, or even big corporate players might want to check out.

NinjaPromo

Ever heard of a place that combines motion design, influencer marketing, and PR under one roof? NinjaPromo is exactly that. With offices in London, Dubai, Singapore, Hong Kong, New York, and Vilnius, this 300-person team has embraced the global stage. Their biggest selling point is that they don’t just animate cool videos; they figure out how to get those videos seen by the right audience. And we all know that the best clip in the world won’t matter if no one sees it.

They’ve done a ton of work for startups, which is great if you’re aiming for rapid brand growth. After all, the hustle never sleeps when you’re trying to scale fast. One example is a project they did for an Australian makeup brand—it showed off playful transitions, bright colors, and fun messaging that stuck in your mind. Whenever you find yourself hoping for a one-stop shop—motion graphics plus the marketing push—NinjaPromo might be the team you’ve been looking for.

Frantic

Tucked away in London, Frantic is a small but mighty powerhouse. It’s known for motion design, social videos, TV ads, and CGI product videos. The question is: How does such a compact team collaborate with heavyweight names like BBC, McLaren, Casio, Microsoft, and Rimmel? The secret sauce is passion for detail. Whether it’s a whirling 3D product animation or a full-on TV spot, these folks know how to make visuals pop.

And if you’re craving a brand piece that blends sleek and futuristic vibes with a certain raw energy, Frantic can pull it off. They’ve done campaigns that run across eight formats in five languages—talk about adaptability. Sometimes, you need a short, punchy commercial. Sometimes, you need a cinematic experience. Either way, Frantic has proven they can handle the challenge.

Giant Ant

Once you see a Giant Ant animation, you don’t forget it. This 22-person studio in Vancouver leans into a playful style that can somehow make even the most business-oriented topic feel warm and friendly. They’ve produced 2D, 3D, and even 4D pieces for brands like Nike, Adobe, Shopify, Coca-Cola, and Mountain Dew. Their approach often feels vibrant, imaginative, and a bit quirky.

A neat twist is how they can pivot from lighthearted storytelling into deeper, more emotional narratives. They once crafted a social campaign for the Mayo Clinic, highlighting health topics in ways that felt surprisingly uplifting. If you’re tired of the same old corporate vibe and want something that merges heart, humor, and that intangible “wow” factor, Giant Ant is one to watch.

Bito

Nestled in Taipei, Bito has carved out a lane that’s nothing short of unforgettable. Imagine fusing the best of Asian pop culture with quirky animation that doesn’t shy away from bold colors or unexpected angles. Whether you’re looking for 2D or 3D animation, cel animation, or even short films, they embrace a creative weirdness that leaves you wanting more.

Case in point: their collaboration with the Taipei City Government featured a surreal, captivating animation that made you wonder how someone even dreamed it up. It’s not just for local campaigns, though. Startups and mid-size companies seeking a memorable style might find themselves drawn to Bito. There’s something magical about a studio that can take everyday messages and swirl them into vibrant, offbeat universes.

FEVR

Based in New York and Los Angeles, FEVR dials in a minimalist style that speaks volumes. Sometimes, it’s a beautifully simple 2D illustration that catches you off guard with its thought-provoking transitions. Other times, it’s a polished 3D animation showcasing brand characters that feel almost alive. They’re well-known for their explainer videos, weaving stories that make complex topics feel approachable and downright cool.

Picture a big client like Chanel or Coca-Cola. Now, imagine them handing over their brand guidelines to a small design team that can create magic without overshadowing the brand’s essence. FEVR excels at that balance. They’ve done it for Amazon, Uber, and Dior—yes, Dior. And once you see that fashion-forward mixed-media collage they whipped up, it’s obvious why big names trust them.

Thinkmojo

Sometimes, you just need a simple explainer video that tells people what your product does—and does it in a way that sticks. That’s where Thinkmojo thrives. Split between San Francisco and Montreal, this tight-knit group creates promotional clips, ads, and product launch content for brands of every size. They’ve worked with Salesforce, WordPress, and LinkedIn, among others.

Their sweet spot seems to be clarity. Do you know that moment when you finally understand a complicated concept because someone broke it down so well? That’s the Thinkmojo effect. Each video feels direct, approachable, and polished—like a quick conversation with a helpful friend who knows exactly what you need to hear. If your brand struggles to explain a feature or process, these folks might just make it click for your audience.

Device

Head over to Barcelona, and you’ll find Device—a creative hub that merges illustration, 2D/3D motion, music, and even short films. Yes, music. Their core team includes composers, which means they can develop an entire production with custom sound design. There’s something powerful about aligning the music’s tempo with the animation’s pacing. It can turn a simple ad into a miniature cinematic event.

The device has supported local startups in Spain but also worked with major players like Spotify, crafting social media campaigns that stand out in a sea of identical reels and stories. Sometimes, they’ll build an adorable character for a TV commercial, giving it a life of its own. Other times, they’re producing slick branded visuals that feel decidedly grown-up. Either way, if you need an all-in-one creative experience—sights and sounds—Device can pull it together seamlessly.

Oddfellows

Oddfellows, in Portland, takes a more emotional route. They get personal, tapping into the heartbeat of a brand’s story. If you’ve seen their campaigns for Savage x Fenty, eBay, or Nike, you’ve felt that extra jolt—the sense that they aren’t just animating lines and colors but weaving a narrative that tugs at you on a human level. It’s almost like they sit in a boardroom and ask, “How do we want people to feel?”

They’ve tackled everything from ads to brand identity videos, using motion design in ways that hint at a deeper meaning. One example is a sleek explainer for Google Password Manager that turned an otherwise mundane topic into something lively and relatable. Oddfellows is the studio you hire when you want viewers to remember your brand days or weeks later because they felt something genuine.

At the end of the day…

People often think motion graphics are just moving shapes or shiny add-ons. But there’s a lot more going on behind the scenes—strategy, messaging, and the art of capturing attention in a world where everyone’s swiping within seconds. Each of these 10 agencies has carved its own path. Some focus on short, punchy ads that hit you with a burst of energy. Others craft stories so engaging that you forget you’re watching an advertisement.

So, which team is your perfect fit? The real answer depends on your brand’s personality, your goals, and how much creative control you want to hand over. The possibilities? They’re endless. You could go with Superside’s subscription-based model if you crave ongoing support, or you might try Duck. Design for a more budget-friendly start. You might even need a global marketing push from NinjaPromo or the emotional punch of Oddfellows.

In 2025, motion graphics won’t just be a nice thing to have—they’ll be woven into the very fabric of brand storytelling. The question is: Are you ready to tap into that power and create experiences people actually remember? Or will you let the scroll-happy masses breeze right past you? Sometimes, one bold move is all it takes to stand out. The choice, as always, is yours.
