Services
The thing you send when words aren’t enough. 60–180 seconds, written, storyboarded and delivered to brief. Available in 2D, 3D, live-action talking head with B-roll, or hybrid formats.
Best for: product launches · investor overviews · public communications · onboarding
When the subject matter is genuinely complex, a process, a system, a mechanism and it needs to be understood precisely, not approximately. Available in 2D and 3D.
Best for: pharmaceutical · manufacturing · engineering · sustainable energy
Content people actually engage with rather than click through to complete. Structured, accessible, built to standard. For funded programmes, we understand how these are commissioned and delivered.
Best for: HR & L&D · Education · compliance training · clinical onboarding
Show how the product works before a prospect reaches a sales call. Clear, accurate, built around the actual user flow — not a vague approximation of it.
Best for: SaaS platforms · technology products · feature launches · onboarding

Sectors
From patient information to mechanism of action, accuracy and clarity are equally non-negotiable. Reviewed with clinical teams before production begins.
Mechanism of Action | Clinical Training | Regulatory Explainers
Automation and AI-driven production are changing how facilities operate. The people alongside these systems need to understand what’s changing and why.
Process Visualisation | Call to Action | Safety Training
Wind, solar, nuclear, hydrogen, grid modernisation, each requires a different explanation for a different audience
Public Consultation | Investor Communication | Technical Explainers
Complex policy, process and service explained to audiences that didn’t choose to receive it. We understand how public sector procurement works.
Public Explainers | Accessible Training
Research, programmes and institutional change communicated to students, staff, funders and the public, built to accessibility standards.
Research Explainers | E-Learning | Student Onboarding
Sensitive systems explained to procurement bodies, government stakeholders and the public, without oversimplifying what the technology does.
Technical Animation | System Explainers | Capability Overviews
CRISPR, synthetic biology, neural interfaces, moving from research into application. Mechanism of action animation is our most technically demanding work.
Mechanism of Action | Scientific Explainers | Investor Communication
The gap between what a product does and what its audience understands is where deals are lost. We build from the actual product, not an approximation.
Product Demos | Feature Explainers | Launch Animation
Industrial and humanoid robotics moving into public-facing roles. Explaining what these systems do and don’t do to staff, regulators and the public.
Technical Animation | Public Explainers | Stakeholder Communication
Digital Creatures operates as an independent specialist studio based in Donegal, Ireland. Led by Christopher Curran, a motion designer and visual communicator with over twenty years of experience across animation, video, and visual communication.

Our process begins with crafting an engaging script and developing a visual storyboard, showcasing the video sequence scene by scene. Upon client approval of the script, we proceed to create illustrations followed by animation. we then record a professional voice-over and curate music to complement your video’s narrative, and Lastly, we combine all elements, resulting in a final finished video.
Yes, You can choose the voice artist’s age, gender and dialect. We have a number of voice artists and production partners.
We also will work from a voice over recording provided by you, the client.
Yes, once a consultation and brief is supplied we can get to work on the Script for you. We can also work from the client’s Script. Providing a script yourself will help keep costs down.
If you already have a script for your video, we can provide you with a video production cost estimate. In case you don’t have one yet, we carefully consider all your requirements and use our expertise to offer an approximate video length estimate. The duration of the video plays a significant role in determining production costs. Every project is unique, and we calculate the cost per minute of the video based on specific details. To provide a more accurate quote, you can schedule a free consultation with us or we can email you a questionnaire to fill out.
The fastest way to start a conversation is to send a brief description of what you need and when you need it.
