When you're producing a project that will be seen by millions, good is simply not enough. In the 8 years we've been working with Garbanzo, they have never settled for just "good".

We came to Garbanzo initially with a tightly budgeted 15 for in-store usage. We left with a beautiful 30, on budget and better than the client thought possible. Look forward to working with them in the future.

What Our Clients Say
FAQ
Garbanzo is a boutique 2D/3D animation and motion design studio for brands and agencies. We create product launch films, explainer videos, technical visualizations, hero product shots, motion graphics, and VFX-driven spots that help you market complex products clearly and make campaigns look top-tier.
We focus on high-impact commercial work: product launch videos, technical explainer films, 3D product animations, broadcast and online ads, social cutdowns, and animated brand systems. If it’s tied to a campaign, product launch, or fundraising story - and it needs to look expensive and perform - it's probably a fit.
We work across tech, software/SaaS, hardware and electronics, CPG and kitchenware, automotive and mobility, and other marketing-driven brands. On the agency side, we plug into creative, production, and post teams as their dedicated motion graphics and 3D animation studio.
Most 3D product animations and explainer videos land between $15k and $30k, depending on length, visual complexity, and how many versions/cutdowns you need. Very short, focused assets sometimes start around $10k. We scope each project individually so you know exactly what you’re getting and what it costs.
Most projects take 4–8 weeks from brief to final delivery. Faster timelines are possible, but require tighter scope, quicker feedback, and rush rates. Longer, more complex films, big campaigns, or heavy R&D can push beyond that. We’ll give you a realistic schedule up front and keep it updated.
Both. We work directly with in-house marketing teams, founders, and product leaders and as a white-label animation partner for agencies. We’re very comfortable staying in the background, following your process, and making your team look great in front of your client.
We can take you from blank page to final master or plug into an existing idea. Many clients come to us with only a rough brief. We help clarify the message, write or refine the script, build storyboards and styleframes, then move into design, 3D, animation, and finishing.
Yes - and that usually saves time and budget. We regularly ingest CAD models, engineering drawings, product photos, live-action plates, and existing brand systems. We’ll clean, optimize, and enhance what you already have so the final animation feels on-brand and technically accurate.
