Design Process

Girgit’s “communication objective first” approach ensures we help our clients in forming the design brief, research and empathize with the audience if allowed, to the extent of involving them in the content design process. This ensures the final output is embraced by them and the communication sinks within their emotional core. Our versatile execution ability doesn’t tie us or our clients down to any fixed style. The design brief (Target audience, their content consumption preferences, timelines & budgets available, nature of information to be conveyed and more such factors) organically helps us arrive at the choice of execution style.

The Story ideas, Script, Character Designs and Art Treatments are then created based on the design brief and execution style in perspective. We come up with unique production design techniques sometimes based on specific requirements of each project. We collaborate with the best professionals and experts based on specific project requirements. Professionals like Music Directors, Voice Talents, Sound designers, Cinematographers, Acting Directors, Design thinkers, cultural consultants etc.

Girgit’s strength in their stories and animation is what inspired us to partner with them. But what we were pleasantly surprised by are the number of other strengths that they have. Their ability to engage students in the design process from start to finish, their adaptations to different cultures as we were developing the content for both India and Ethiopia, their ability to stay on track in terms of time and budget, and equally important their kindness, their communication and their true commitment to collaboration. Splash and the students we work with love these films. And we are incredibly thankful for this partnership with girgit to be able to turn this vision into a reality.

Girgit Studios is everything an animation studio should be – creative, innovative, collaborative, reliable and detail-oriented. It was great to work with Swarup and his team in achieving the desired project results. We’re overwhelmed and would highly recommend ‘Girgit Studios’ to any organization wishing to deliver creative story-telling that goes above and beyond the expected.

Girgit Studios have been able to strike a right balance between the creativity and the corporate content to deliver on the objectives we had set out for our information security campaign. They added the ‘fun’ aspect to a subject that is usually not perceived as very interesting by the audience and that ‘fun-factor’ has gone a long way in laying the foundation for creating a strong security-minded culture at Vodafone.

We are doing offline training using the SnehAI films we developed with Girgit on Cyber safety for teenagers in the context of OCSEA. The audience response has been very good. Everyone loved the films, including the people in the government we shared it with. Those SnehAI videos are a HIT!

The Girgit team was very supportive, understanding and open minded in incorporating cultural aspects and were giving attention to minor issues so that the cumulative effect can be very sound. They learned from the feedback from school kids, focal teachers and people from the education bureau. The films were appreciated as they were very funny and yet captured key messages we wanted to convey.
Vidya Reddy

We were absolutely floored with the story approach and sample animation the GIRGITs showed us when we were contemplating an animation film for children which address preventing sexual abuse. More than anything their efforts to understand the subject under production, the target group and the care taken to be sensitive and mindful in working with both these aspects, makes them a rarity.
