Best styleframes by Hound Studio

7 min readMar 5, 2019

This year has started with a big amount of work for us, but we understand how important to share with you different details of our work process and tell about things we work on. Today we are not going to speak about explainer videos and their necessity for brand-building, we just want to show you our favorite styleframes created during 2018–2019. Are you interested? I hope so because we have great stuff to share. First of all, let’s define what the word “styleframe” means. Styleframes are colorful pictures made in different styles for visualization of the main scenes of the video. Usually, we create 3–4 styleframes to give the opportunity to choose the most suitable option. Sometimes, we get reference pictures that greatly simplifies our task, but more often after reading Creative Brief, we have a full picture understanding needs and preferences of the client we’re going to work with. It should be mentioned, that with many years of working experience, now it’s easier for us to find the best option that can immediately satisfy our client. Styleframes will also help your client check if there is a common understanding between his/her and designer’s ideas or he needs to speak to a designer again to explain his own vision. So, as you see, this stage of video production is no less important than all the others. Of course, everyone wants to get a perfect final version of the project he/she pays for, that’s why we have a lot of stages during the process to make sure that we choose the right direction.

The main task for these styleframes was to show Max, who is an entrepreneur and got lost in the information jungle of the General Data Protection Regulation.

For this project, we got a ready-made script from our client (more often we write it by ourselves to simplify the process for both client and us) that’s why we immediately set to design creation. It had to be simple, but interesting and catchy. We made 3 styleframes to give our client an opportunity to choose the best option. We had to convey the atmosphere of this amazing, but a shrinking region.
