Motion Graphics Designer Services

Here is how this works in practice. Our motion graphics designer coverage runs through Sydney's Animal Logic (Happy Feet 2006 Best Animated Feature Oscar, The Lego Movie franchise, Peter Rabbit franchise, Legend of the Guardians), Rising Sun Pictures Adelaide (Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, Hunger Games), Method Studios Melbourne (formerly Iloura — Game of Thrones Battle of the Bastards Emmy, Thor Ragnarok), and boutique Sydney/Melbourne studios running Adobe After Effects, Cinema 4D, Houdini, Nuke, Maya, and DaVinci Resolve Fusion toolchains.

Here is the short of it. Designers deliver feature title sequences, broadcast graphics packages, brand commercials, OOH digital placements, and sites-native social cuts for ABC, SBS, Seven, Nine, Network 10, Foxtel, Stan, Binge, plus global Netflix, Amazon MGM, Apple TV+, and HBO Max productions.

Here is the breakdown. Productions structure through the PDV Offset 30 percent federal rebate (designed specifically to attract global post and VFX to Australia) stackable with Screen NSW 10 percent, Screen Queensland 10 percent, Film Vic 10 percent, ScreenWest 10 percent, Screen Tasmania 15 percent, and SAFC 5-10 percent state rebates — good rates above 40 percent on post-only spend.

Here is what that looks like on the ground. Heritage runs through Animal Logic founder Zareh Nalbandian. The Sydney/Vancouver design pipeline that delivered Happy Feet (Best Animated Feature Oscar 2006 — George Miller), Walking with Dinosaurs, Legend of the Guardians, Peter Rabbit, and The Lego Movie franchise.

Here is how the picture comes together. AFTRS Sydney (federal national school since 1973), VCA Melbourne, RMIT, Griffith Film School Brisbane, SAE Institute (Aussie-founded, worldwide exported), and UTS design programs train the motion-graphics bench. LA-Sydney 12-hour direct overnight workflow (LA late-night equals Sydney morning) and US-Australia AUSFTA plus AUD ~1.55:1 USD favourable exchange make Australian motion-design studios a routine finishing pipeline for Hollywood and streamer productions.

Here is what we have to work with. Australian Type Board G/PG/M/MA15+ ratings apply to broadcast-bound work; Privacy Act 1988 / OAIC governs client data; MEAA covers union representation; Fair Work Ombudsman, Superannuation 11 percent, GST 10 percent apply to engagements.
