No longer content to simply move pieces of your logo around the screen, our designers create mini-movies, complete with 3D animation, sound (if required) and supply you with different resolution clips so that you can add your logo animation to web sites and multimedia presentations. Want more Flash? We can create full-blown Macromedia Flash demos and multimedia presentations with music, sound FX, 3D logo animation and interactive menus.

How our Flash logo animation services work

When you submit your project via an online form, you will be asked to tell us what kind of animation you have in mind OR, you can leave it up to our designers to come up with their own brand of animation and theme. We'll consult with you directly, or send you a proposal story board or text outline which will help you visualize the final animation. Once you've approved the basic Flash outline, we'll create a 'working' movie - a quick pass of the final animation that will allow you to clearly see how your logo animation will appear once completed. You'll be able to view this work on your very own Factory Floor client page, a client only part of our website that you can access from where ever you have internet access. After viewing this working animation, you can tell us what you'd like to see changed and once your animation is approved, we'll render Flash files at for use on your website. You can then download these animations off your client page and use them right away.

Getting started on your Flash animation

Adobe's Flash is the industry-standard web plug in, allowing anyone to add killer Flash Logos & Animations to any web site. We won't bore you with the technical details (though we are available for any Flash based questions you might have). Take a look at our Flash Animation Examples for recent work and see if TLF is up to speed. If you decide that you'd like to work with us, we've streamlined the animation process so that you can work with our staff completely online, and without ever leaving your desk. All you really need to do is to select the level of Flash service that best suits your requirements, submit a project form via our website and we'll do the rest. Our customer service department are more than happy to discuss all our Flash options with you, so feel free to contact us at any time.

Two levels of Flash. Logo Lick & Advanced animation

Logo Lick Flash animation - $350.00
We were tempted to refer to our Flash Logo Licks as a 'basic' flash animation. Or even a 'quick and dirty' flash solution. Trouble is, our Flash Logo Licks are neither. Rather, Logo Licks are quick loading, stand alone animations of your logo that are long on 'wow' and short on budget. See here for more details on Logo Lick animations.

Advanced Flash - starting at $650.00
While The Logo Factory has turned making fast-loading Logo Lick animations into a science, some projects call for a little more 'oomph'. Full blown 3D flash animation, motion blurs (which give a cinema-like impression of movement), interactive menus and presentations. With Flash, the sky is truly the limit when it comes to animation and interactivity. And that's where our Advanced Flash services come in.

Included in a Flash logo animation project

The features and scope of a Flash logo animation project may vary, depending on the level of service you choose, but here's a basic run down of what you can expect when working with The Logo Factory.

Concepts and initial story board and/or consultation

Creation of animation and required source files

Exclusive Factory Floor client page for your project.

Soundtrack and/or music (Advanced Flash only)

Edit and revision rounds. Every Flash animation is different, so the number of revision rounds depends on the Flash animation package you've selected as well as the scope of your project.

Final optimization of Flash source file (original source file saved 'untouched')

Rendering of SWF (web ready movie file) from optimized Flash source file.

HTML documents (if required).

Shipment of ALL files and source material via electronic download.

Copyright transfer (if required) for any relevant images or graphics used in our Flash Logos. Please note - copyright transfer is only applicable to artwork, photography and/or music developed and/or designed by The Logo Factory.

All project files and documentation are shipped Mail, UPS Ground or Federal Express Priority upon completion of animation project.

What we need to begin your logo animation

In order to develop Flash Logos & Animations, we require access to your logo in the correct vector based file formats (EPS or AI Adobe Illustrator format - NOT extruded or trimmed). If you are a TLF client, all our logo design packages include these formats, so we'll already have the necessary files on hand. If you already have a logo, but only have bitmap versions available, The Logo Factory will first have to repair your artwork. Please note - logo repair services are not included with Flash animation.

What you get - files that we ship

Flash Source File - FLA (non-optimized), SWF web-ready movie file (optimized). Illustrator source files (if required) EPS (RGB), Fireworks source files (if required) PNG (RGB), HTML documents (if required). MP3 files of your soundtrack (Advanced Flash only. If applicable). Documentation and copyright transfers. If you wish to edit your Flash animation at a later date, you'll use the FLA file. If you wish to use your animation on a website, you'll use the SWF file. EPS files can be edited in any vector based software such as Adobe Illustrator. MP3 files can be played by most music players (an ipod for example). For further clarification of types of files supplied, or our Flash animation services in general, feel free to contact us.
