What Animation
Services Does
TDS Include?

TDS animation services cover the full spectrum of motion design — from logo animations and social GIFs through to motion graphics, 2D character animation, UI micro-animations, and animated advertising. Animated content generates up to 7× more engagement than static content across social platforms, and a motion identity makes your brand instantly more distinctive. Every TDS animation is produced on-brand and reviewed by a Creative Director before delivery.

What's Included

What does animation include
in a TDS subscription?

Every tier includes the full animation suite. All formats, all use cases — motion graphics to character animation, no add-ons.

Motion Graphics

Animated titles, data visualisations, infographic animations, and branded motion sequences — the most versatile animation format for marketing, social, and presentation use.

Logo & Brand Animation

Animated logo stings, brand intro and outro sequences, and motion identity elements — adding a dynamic dimension to your visual identity across digital touchpoints.

2D Character Animation

Character-driven animated content for explainer videos, social storytelling, and brand campaigns — scripted, storyboarded, and animated with on-brand character design.

UI & Micro-Animations

Lottie/JSON animations for web and mobile apps — loading states, onboarding flows, interactive icons, and UI transitions. Lightweight, scalable, and developer-ready.

Animated Social Content

Animated GIFs, looping video posts, and motion-enhanced stories for Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, and TikTok — sized and formatted for each platform's specifications.

Animated Ad Creatives

Animated GIF and HTML5 banner ads for display and programmatic — higher engagement rates than static equivalents, delivered to IAB standard sizes.

How It Works

How does TDS deliver
animation?

TDS animation production follows a structured brief-to-delivery workflow — concept, storyboard, animation, and review — keeping every project on time and on brand.

01

Brief & Motion Direction

Submit your animation brief — covering objective, format, length, style reference, and any existing assets. TDS confirms the motion direction and style before production begins.

02

Storyboard (Where Required)

For multi-scene animations, a storyboard is presented for sign-off before animation begins — preventing costly rework mid-production.

03

Animation & CD Review

Animation produced on-brand with sound (where applicable). Creative Director reviews timing, brand consistency, and technical quality before the first cut is delivered.

04

Multi-Format Delivery

Final animation delivered in all required formats — MP4, GIF, Lottie JSON, or HTML5. Two revision rounds included before final export.

Why TDS

Why choose TDS for
animation?

Motion That Feels On-Brand

Every animation is built against your brand identity — your colours, your typography, your graphic style. Motion that feels like an extension of your brand, not a generic template.

Every Format Covered

From Lottie JSON for developers to MP4 for social and HTML5 for display — TDS delivers every animation in every format your team needs, without additional briefing.

Creative Director Oversight

Every animation is reviewed by a Creative Director before delivery — timing, brand consistency, and technical accuracy all checked at a senior level before the file reaches you.

No Lock-in Contracts

TDS subscriptions are month-to-month. Ramp up animation production for a launch or campaign, then scale back when the sprint ends. No penalties for flexibility.

Frequently asked questions
about TDS animation services

What types of animation does TDS produce?
TDS produces motion graphics, 2D character animation, kinetic typography, logo animations, brand intro and outro stings, UI micro-animations, animated social media content, animated display ads (GIF and HTML5), and mixed-media animations combining illustration with motion.
How long does animation production take at TDS?
