Video
Your brand needs to move. We create video productions and animations so good, you'll want to grab the popcorn and enjoy the show.
You capture the story. We edit and craft the cinematic finish.
Video isn't optional anymore. It's 80% of internet traffic.
If your website and socials aren't posting video, you're already invisible.
Shooting the clip takes minutes. Turning it into something people actually watch takes hours — color grading, editing, sound design, captions, motion graphics, all the details most people don't even know to look for. That's years of experience compressed into every post. You shoot it. We make it unskippable.
Short form videos set your business apart.
In a world flooded with AI‑generated imagery and growing backlash against it, your customers want something real. They want to see you, hear from your team, and feel the authenticity behind your brand.

Simple, transparent pricing for short form video production

For the strongest video marketing results, consistency is key. Our small business marketing plans include monthly video production to keep your content flowing.
Why short form video is a must-have, not a nice-to-have
01. Trust
Customers want to see the people, personality, and product behind a business before they buy — especially from a small business competing against bigger, more established brands. Video lets potential customers "meet" you before they ever walk in the door or fill out a form, building trust at a pace text and photos can't match.
02. It's expected
Whether it's a product demo, a behind-the-scenes look, or a customer testimonial, today's customers expect to see video before they decide to trust a business with their money. A business without video can start to look outdated or less credible compared to competitors who have it.
03. Algorithms
Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and even Google actively favor video content in their algorithms right now. Businesses posting consistent short form video get more organic reach and visibility than those relying only on photos or text posts — which means more eyes on your business without paying for ads.
Premium motion that grabs attention, so you don't have to
Animated video grabs attention fast, explains ideas clearly, and makes your message instantly more memorable. It simplifies complex concepts, boosts engagement, and helps your brand stand out in a way static content can’t.
Sleepy Dog Media Group is a full‑service motion design agency, managing every stage of production — from discovery and strategy to scripting, design, animation, sound, revisions, and final rendered delivery.
Motion design is available in two different services: A Fusion Reel™ or traditional motion graphics and animation video.
01. Fusion Reel™
Fusion Reel™ turns your existing photos and raw video into polished motion content—elevated with graphics, text, animation, and music. It’s the elegant bridge between static assets and full on‑site production: no shoots, no scheduling, no logistics. Just premium, on‑brand video delivered with remarkable ease.
How does it work?
- Consultation We meet to define the message, tone, and goals of your Fusion Reel™. You’ll receive a dedicated Dropbox folder and client portal for easy project updates and asset delivery.
- Assets Upload your company photos, video clips, logos, and any supporting visuals that will be used in the final production.
- Production We animate your assets with motion graphics, text, music, and sound design to craft a polished, on‑brand motion piece.
- Review Your Fusion Reel™ is posted for review, and you can submit any requested changes directly through your client portal.
- Final Render We apply your revisions and deliver a final render in multiple formats for your website and social channels. All finished assets are uploaded to your Dropbox.
02. Animation
Animated motion graphics can be anything from a 20‑second, high‑energy social hit that sparks attention to a longer, story‑driven explainer video that walks people through your services. Every package includes the same production quality and creative process—the only thing that changes is the final video length.
How does it work?
- Consultation In an online session, we refine your video’s message, audience, style, budget, and timeline. Your client portal is set up so you can monitor progress 24/7, with approvals at every stage listed below.
- Script Writing The script is the backbone of your video. We craft a clear, concise, and engaging narrative that delivers your message with impact.
- Voiceover Choose the perfect voice from a curated pool of professional actors. Whether you want high energy, credibility, or trust, the right voice sets the tone for your entire production.
- Design We develop a visual style using motion graphics and character design that best communicates your story and aligns with your brand.
- Motion & Animation This is where everything comes to life. We animate your graphics, characters, and typography to create a dynamic, polished motion experience.
- Sound Design Music and sound FX are carefully selected and mixed to enhance pacing and emotion—never overpowering, always supporting the message.
- Revisions Your video is posted for review, and you can request any revisions needed to ensure it’s exactly right.
- Final Delivery After final revisions, your video is delivered in ready‑to‑post formats for your website and every social platform you use.

Video players
Skip YouTube for your site videos — Wistia and Vimeo are the better call. Both offer free plans for smaller accounts and give you far more control over quality, branding, and how your videos actually look on your site. Need help setting up an account? We've got you covered.

Let's set your project in motion
Questions about motion design? Want a quote? Need to share a dog moment? We’re all ears. Reach out and one of our humans will answer.
We already know what's holding you back — let's fix that
“I don't have anyone who's on camera — I'm not comfortable being the face of my business.”
You don't have to be. Short form video works just as well showcasing your product, your workspace, your team, or even customer testimonials. We'll help you figure out what to film and how to make it feel natural — no on-camera experience required.
“Video seems expensive and complicated to produce.”
Not with us. You shoot it on your phone, we handle everything else — editing, color grading, sound design, captions, motion graphics. No expensive equipment, no production crew, no complicated process. Just simple footage in, scroll-stopping content out.
“I don't have time to plan and film videos regularly.”
You don't need hours — most short form videos start with just a few minutes of footage. We help you build a simple, repeatable process so filming becomes a quick part of your routine, not a time-consuming production.
“How do I know video will actually bring in more customers, not just views?”
Because video drives real action — clicks, calls, and conversions, not just likes. From product demos to testimonials to behind-the-scenes content, short form video builds trust fast, and trust is what turns viewers into paying customers.
FAQs
Why is video so effective?
People love watching more than reading. Over 80 percent of all web traffic is now video, and the human brain processes visuals much faster than text. It’s why motion design grabs attention instantly.
How many photos do you use for a Fusion Reel™?
For the best balance of clarity and motion, Fusion Reel™ videos generally include 18–30 photos, while Social Sparks™ feature 8–12. Fewer images mean longer on‑screen time—perfect for text overlays. A larger image count creates a quicker pace and a more energetic visual style.
Is there a discount for multiple videos?
Yes. A unified motion strategy is key to making an impact. Explainers, social media clips, and landing page videos work together to maximize engagement and revenue. Ready to see the possibilities? We’d love to create a proposal for you.
Are the videos closed captioned?
Yes, all our videos with voiceover include closed captioning or animated captions at no extra cost. This ensures people with hearing impairments or other disabilities can fully access your message. You’d also be surprised how many viewers watch in silent mode because of their location or preference, which makes captions even more valuable.
Does animation work for professional or serious industries?
Absolutely. Motion design is used by tech companies, medical brands, financial firms and home‑service businesses because it explains complex ideas quickly and cleanly.
What if I’ve never done a video before?
Most of our clients haven’t. We walk you through each step, explain what’s coming next, and keep the process simple and stress‑free.
How many revisions do I get?
For motion graphics videos, we build two rounds of revisions into each stage of the process so you can give feedback as we go. Beyond two rounds of revisions at any stage of the process will be billed at regular studio hourly rates. Fusion Reel™ and short form video productions get one round of revisions. Additional revisions are billed at regular studio rates.
What kind of footage do I need to send you for short form video?
Just film on your smartphone — no fancy equipment required. Good lighting and steady shots help, but our editors know how to work with real-world footage, not just professional camera work.
Can I request a specific style or tone for my videos?
Absolutely. Whether you want fast-paced and energetic, clean and professional, or something more casual and authentic, just let us know your brand's style and we'll match it.
What if I don't know what to film?
No problem — we'll give you simple prompts and content ideas so you always know what to shoot, even if you've never made a video before.
Can you use my existing footage, logo, and branding?
Yes. We can incorporate your existing brand assets — logo, colors, fonts — directly into your edits so every video feels consistently on-brand.
What file formats will I receive?
You'll get your videos in the formats best suited for each platform — vertical for Reels/TikTok/Stories, and square or horizontal for your website or other placements, depending on your needs.
Do you handle both website videos and social media clips?
Yes — we edit videos optimized for your website, plus shorter, platform-specific cuts for Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and more, all from the same footage.
