Business videos that perform.

Most business videos get made before anyone asks what they're for, so they look great and do nothing. I build the strategy first, then animate, so yours actually moves people to act.

The real problem

A video that looks great and does nothing is just expensive decoration.

You know you need video. What you're not sure of is whether it'll actually work, or whether you'll spend a few thousand dollars on something polished that just sits there.

That usually happens for one reason: the video got made before anyone asked what it was for. The animation was fine. The thinking that should have come first was missing.

Thousands spent on a video almost nobody watches.

A finished piece that doesn't match what you actually needed.

Guessing at scope, then paying to redo it.

I've sat through enough of these to build my entire studio around preventing them. Every project starts with strategy, before a single frame gets animated.

Strategy first. Animation second.

Every project moves through the same three steps, so you always know what you're paying for and why before the work begins.

1

Book a free strategy call

30 to 45 minutes. We work out what the video is for, where it'll live, and how we'll know whether it worked.

2

Lock the brief and scope

You get a clear quote with two rounds of revisions built in. No blind quotes, no guessing at what you need.

3

I animate it

Your video, built on the strategy we agreed on, delivered in 3 to 6 weeks. I keep iterating until it matches the brief.

It's the difference between making a video and making a video that performs.

Not ready to talk yet?

"You're Hesitating. There's A Reason."

A short, free read on the quiet signs your brand story isn't landing yet, and the real reason a video keeps not getting made. If you're not sure video is even worth it, start here. No pitch, just clarity.

Common questions.

The things most people want to know before they email.

Why is the strategy call free?
Because the call isn't a product. It's how I figure out whether I can actually help. The calls that end in "you're not ready yet" or "this isn't a video problem" save me time too.
Do you work white-label with marketing agencies?
Yes. Agency engagements are a meaningful part of what I do. You keep the client relationship, I handle the production behind the scenes. Same process, same pricing structure.
What if I already have a brief or storyboard?
Bring it. We'll work through it on the strategy call. Sometimes the existing brief is solid and we move straight to production. Sometimes it needs sharpening before anyone opens After Effects. You don't have to start over.
Can we just skip the strategy call?
No. The strategy call is how I figure out whether I can actually help you, and what the right scope is. Quoting blind is how clients end up with videos that don't perform. If the call doesn't fit your schedule, the work probably isn't the right fit either.
How quickly can you start a project?
Usually within one to two weeks of the strategy call. Faster if your project is timeline-critical and I have availability. I'll be honest about my capacity on the call.
How much do projects cost?
Projects start at $1,500. Where you land depends on scope. Short-form explainers and social-first vertical pieces sit at the lower end, and complex or multi-deliverable work runs higher. We narrow it down to a real number on the strategy call, and I won't pretend something fits a budget if it doesn't.

About.

I'm Chany Klinger. I founded KeyFrame Media in Brooklyn after six years of animation work and formal training at School of Motion's Animation Bootcamp.

I work with direct business owners and the marketing agencies who hire me to handle their video production. Whether the budget is $1,500 or $5,000, every project moves through the same sequence: strategy first, then craft.

I started this studio because I watched too many videos get made before anyone asked the right questions. The animation was always fine. The thinking that needed to happen first was missing.

That's the gap I built KeyFrame Media to close.

Start a project.

The strategy call is free. 30 to 45 minutes. You'll leave knowing exactly what your video should do, whether we make it together or not.

The risk

If we're not a fit, you've lost 30 minutes and gained a sharper sense of what your video should be. Once we move forward, every quote includes two rounds of revisions, so you're never left with a video that misses the mark.
