See how we explain it.

Our own educational videos show the approach: start with a question, then reveal the mechanism.

FROM YOUR BRIEF TO THE FINAL FILM

A clear scope from the start.

  1. Share the idea

    Tell us the mechanism, audience, intended use, target date and budget range. Public reference links help us assess the fit.

  2. Agree the explanation

    We review the references and define the deliverables. You approve the script and storyboard before animation begins.

  3. Review the animation

    Your team checks the technical details and shares one consolidated round of feedback within the agreed scope.

Before we begin

What kinds of projects are a good fit?

A single mechanism or operating principle with a clear audience: a teaching model, a product feature or an introduction to a technical concept. Share reference material so we can assess the visual detail needed.

How much does a project cost?

We provide an estimate after reviewing the mechanism, modeling work, format and intended use. Extra formats, additional languages, complex simulations and changes to an approved script are scoped separately.

When can you deliver?

Howloft takes on at most one suitable client project per month alongside our educational videos. We confirm availability and a delivery schedule after reviewing your brief.

What can I use the finished video for?

Tell us where you plan to use it, including any paid advertising. We agree the usage rights, voice and other asset licences before work begins. Editable project files and exclusive rights require a separate agreement.

Who checks the technical details?

We build the explanation from reference material and ask your team to confirm product-specific details. The result is a visual communication asset, not an engineering design or certification. Learn more about Howloft’s editorial approach.

A short brief is enough to start. We’ll assess the fit before proposing a scope.
