The Pipeline
Twenty shots, one idea, and somebody has to keep them from drifting apart. Creative direction at Garbanzo connects your brief to the concept, visual point of view, and decisions that make the work hold together. Bring an open creative question or a direction you've already set. We can develop the approach with you, carry it through a Garbanzo production, or hand the direction to your team to execute.
Creative Direction
A promising idea still needs a workable production plan. Garbanzo handles scoping, bidding, scheduling, asset wrangling, reviews, and delivery across animation, design, and VFX. Bring the requirements you know and the questions still open: the creative approach, budget, approvals, versions, and dates. We work with your team to turn them into a scope and schedule the project can run on.
Production Management

The boards set the idea in motion. Now the animation has to live up to them. Garbanzo brings concepts to life in 2D and 3D: a character with a point of view, a product turning in light, a world built for the spot. If you're still choosing the approach, we can explore that with you too. We've been animating since 2010, and the two-second transition gets the same care as the two-minute film.
Animation
Every animated thing you've ever liked was a still frame first, and somebody had to get that frame right. We develop the styleframes, systems, boards, and worlds your team needs to bring an idea into view. Bring the brief for exploration or the creative direction you've already set. Motion design is the heart of the practice, with design-only work available when your team is handling the build.
Design

The boards call for something the camera can't capture on its own. We build and integrate the CGI, shape the effects, and composite the shot so it belongs in the spot. Visual effects is one of Garbanzo's founding crafts, including cleanup, roto, and matte painting. Bring your concept, references, or plates so we can discuss the approach and the finishing requirements.
Visual Effects
A script has to work in the cut as well as on the page. We write scripts and voiceover for commercials, corporate videos, and brand films, along with on-screen copy, taglines, and campaign messaging. Bring your brief or a script already in development. The writing takes account of timing, design, and animation: what a cut costs and what a visual can carry without a single word.
Writing
The cut is close, the date is closer, and the version list just doubled. Finishing and post at Garbanzo covers editing, color grading and correction, sound design, mix, mastering, and versioning. Bring the cut, footage, or animation your team is working with, along with the delivery list. We can take on post alone or carry a Garbanzo production through to its finished masters.
Finishing & Post
Creative production from idea to delivery
Bring the idea, the boards, or the question you haven't worked out yet. We can help shape the creative direction, develop the design, or work from the assets your team has already made. A product film might need photoreal 3D; a commercial might bring animation and filmed footage into the same cut. The brief determines which disciplines belong in the project.
Tell us which decisions are settled, where you'd like our input, and how your team handles reviews and delivery. We shape the creative approach and production plan around that conversation.
FAQ
How do I choose the right creative services for my project?
Start with what you want the work to achieve, who it needs to reach, and where it will run. Share any references or existing material, along with the budget and timing you have in mind. You don't need a finished brief to start the conversation.
An early idea may need creative direction, writing, or design; approved boards may be ready for animation. If you know the finished piece you want, explore What We Make. We'll help you choose the services and build on what you already have.
Can I hire one creative service on its own?
Yes. Creative direction, design-only projects, scripts, and post-production are available separately. You can also combine services around the project.
Tell us which part you need, what already exists, and what your team or production partners are handling so we can agree on the scope and handoffs.
Can you work with our existing team and process?
Yes. We work with agencies and in-house teams, whether you have an established creative direction or need help developing it. Share your review and approval process, fixed dates, delivery requirements, and how assets will move between teams. We'll plan our work around those requirements.
