Introduction

In a world where digital transformation is at its peak, Tabby.ai, a pioneering fintech startup, introduced the Tabby Card, a digital Visa card designed to revolutionize the in-store shopping experience. To effectively communicate the unique features and benefits of this innovative product, we embarked on a four-week journey to create an animated product launch video. This case study delves into the intricate process of this video production, highlighting our collaborative efforts, creative processes, and the successful outcome that followed.

Background: Tabby.ai and The Innovative Tabby Card

Tabby.ai has established itself as a leader in the fintech industry, offering flexible payment solutions that empower customers to shop now and pay later. The Tabby Card, a digital Visa card, is one of their flagship products, allowing customers to split their in-store purchases into four interest-free payments. To add to the convenience, the card can be integrated with popular digital wallets like Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, or Google Pay.

The Challenge: Simplifying Complexity through Animation

The Tabby Card, while beneficial, comes with a set of complex functionalities that needed to be communicated clearly and concisely to the target audience. The challenge was to create a compelling video that would not only explain the product’s usage and benefits but also engage and educate potential users.

The Solution: A Collaborative and Creative Production Process

To meet this challenge head-on, we decided to create an animated product launch video, a format known for its ability to simplify complex messages and make them more digestible. The production process was meticulously planned and executed over a span of four weeks, ensuring every detail was perfect.

1. Scripting and Storyboarding:

• We kicked off the project by working closely with the client to understand their vision and requirements. The client provided us with a detailed script, which served as the foundation of our video.
• Our team then translated this script into a visual storyboard, outlining each scene to ensure the message was conveyed effectively.

2. Design and Branding:

• Using Figma designs and branding guidelines provided by the client, we ensured that the video's visual elements were in line with Tabby Card’s brand identity.
• This consistency in design and branding played a crucial role in creating a cohesive and visually appealing video.

3. Animation and Editing:

• The animation was brought to life using Cinema 4D (C4D) and After Effects, tools known for their robust animation and editing capabilities.
• Our team of skilled animators and editors worked diligently to ensure that each frame was meticulously crafted, resulting in a smooth and engaging video.

The Results: A Video That Speaks Volumes

The final product was a two-minute animated video that eloquently explained the Tabby Card’s functionalities, benefits, and usage. The video was not just informative but also visually engaging, resonating well with the target audience. The client, Tabby.ai, was extremely satisfied with the results, and the video played a significant role in increasing user sign-ups and engagement.

Conclusion: A Testament to the Power of Animation
