Information and technology consultancy Sopra Steria commissioned Speakeasy to design an animation to launch their brand-new Colleague News App. The App was built to help colleagues in various different work scenarios stay informed and connected.

Throughout the process Speakeasy worked with the client in character design, storyboarding, scripting and creation of the final 2d animation.

Speakeasy worked closely with the client to ensure that the various colleague demographics were captured within this animation from home workers to commuters. The playful narrator, quirky characters and fun sound effects inject humorous notes, personality and relatability into the film. Speakeasy Incorporated screen captured footage onto the animated phone screen in order to offer a true-to-life guide of how the app operates. The juxtaposition of the instructional live action footage and the playful animated characters filled with bags of personality makes for an engaging and informative piece.
