Motion graphics and 2D/3D animation in Pittsburgh, PA

2D and 3D animation for ideas that won’t sit still for a camera.

Explainers, title systems, product animation and entire worlds built from scratch. Our motion work is led by a SCAD-trained designer, not a template library.

What’s included

Explainers and product animation, in 2D or 3D
Title sequences, lower thirds and graphics packages your team can reuse
3D worlds, products and technical or medical visualizations built in Cinema 4D
Stop motion, when a handmade look fits the story
Motion graphics on live action, for video we shoot or footage you already have

Motion work at Two Horn is led by Chelsea Horn, who studied Motion Media at SCAD. Because the same team shoots and animates, the graphics are planned with the footage instead of added at the end.

How it works

The brief. What needs explaining, who it’s for, and where it will play.
Script and style. A script or voiceover, plus style frames so you can see the look before animation starts.
Storyboard or animatic. A rough, timed version that locks the flow.
Animation. Design, animation, sound design and music.
Revisions and delivery. Notes, final polish and files for everywhere it will run.

Typical projects

3D Paper World for Consol Energy, an HR transformation explainer for PPG, a graphics package for Eat’n Park and 3D medical animation like Chiari Malformation. There’s more in Chelsea’s motion reel and below.

Questions people ask

Do I need 2D or 3D animation?

2D is usually quicker and works well for explainers and social content. 3D suits products, places and anything that needs depth or realism. We’ll recommend one based on the story and the budget.
