THE ART OF BATTLING GIANTS

Attack Studios creates engaging animations to help you stand out
and convert more leads into customers.

Attack Studios, a Chicago-based animation studio, specializes in After Effects animation and motion graphics design. I'm Jerry Nelson, a freelancer running a solo studio in Chicago. With expertise in animation (2D&3D) and art direction (look dev, style frames, storyboards), I've collaborated with esteemed agencies and studios like Leo Burnett, Arc Worldwide, Digitas, Optimus, Carbon VFX, Adolescent, and Flavor.

At Attack Studios, we prioritize delivering top-quality results that exceed client expectations. Working with us means receiving individual attention from me and the collective experience of our team (that expands when needed). Together, we craft captivating animations that make a lasting impression for ambitious underdogs and challenger brands.

Our relentless work ethic and design philosophy drive us to provide meaningful solutions for clients and their audiences. Our unwavering dedication lies in bringing your vision to life, igniting fires of excitement, and infusing animations with boundless energy.

Unleash Your Brand's
Market Dominance

 To succeed in your business, you need awareness, leads, conversions, and loyal customers. An animated video campaign can effectively address these challenges, but it can be difficult and time-consuming to create and organize. Reaching the right audience without the necessary skills and a high-quality video is also a challenge.

We can help you overcome these obstacles. Specializing in advertising, marketing, design, and video, we serve as your translators in these areas. We believe in the power of animated videos supported by smart marketing, solid SEO, and a well-defined demographic.

Here's how it works: Send us a quick email with some project details to book a call. On the call, we'll get to know you and help define where you want to go. We'll do some research, evaluate your position, identify opportunities and create a specific plan to accomplish your goals. Then we'll make a custom animated video that is completely suited to your brand and clientele. Afterward, we'll implement the marketing and distribution strategy we made together, taking out all the guesswork, so you can succeed stress-free.

Movie Title Design
13 Types of Movie Title Design Sequences

There is a range of different types of Movie Title Design Sequences, Opening Credits, and Intros that filmmakers and directors use in their projects. Each one has its own distinct reason for existence and the role that it plays in storytelling beyond just showcasing the credit. The art of the title sequence is really a lot of detective work figuring out the themes of the story and putting that into a framework or motif of imagery that makes sense and adds to the narrative without giving too much away.
