Cadence Studio

Motion that moves business.

Premium motion design for growing brands — without the agency overhead. Logo animation, video ads, explainer videos, and brand motion systems.

Why hire one great designer over a whole agency?

The agency model was built for enterprise clients with enterprise budgets. If you're a growing brand, you're overpaying for structure that doesn't serve you.

Direct access to your designer

You work with me, not an account manager briefing someone you never meet. Questions get answered in hours, not ticket queues.

No overhead. Better value.

Big agencies charge for 20 people. I charge for the work. Your budget goes into the motion design, not a downtown office lease.

Faster turnaround

No hand-off delays between departments. Most projects complete in 1–3 weeks — not the 8–12 week timelines agencies quote.

Personal investment in your brand

Your project isn't one of hundreds in rotation. I take on a limited number of clients at a time so your work actually gets focus.

Less than agency cost

We got a quote from a mid-size agency for $18k and a 10-week timeline. Cadence Studio delivered the same scope in 3 weeks for a fraction of the cost — and the quality was better. I didn't know that was possible.

Working directly with the person doing the actual design is a completely different experience. No briefs getting lost between departments. Revisions happen same-day. The output speaks for itself.

Our Meta ads went from 1.2x ROAS to over 4x after switching to animated creative from Cadence. The turnaround was so fast we were able to test 6 variations in a single month.

From brief to broadcast in four steps.

01

Discovery

We start with a focused 30-minute brief call. You share goals, audience, brand assets, and examples you love. I ask the questions agencies charge extra for.

Day 1
02

Concept

I develop a motion concept — style frames, moodboard, or animatic — for your approval before any full production begins. Changes here cost nothing.

Days 2–4
03

Production

Full animation with two rounds of revisions included. You review at a private link (no email attachments, no waiting on account managers).

Weeks 1–2
04

Delivery

Final files in every format you need, organized and labeled. Source files included on motion system projects. You own everything.
