In the Restaurant sector, professional video content has become essential for standing out in a competitive market. Whether you need promotional material, training content, or brand storytelling, Character Animation delivers measurable results that transform how restaurant professionals communicate with their audience.
Restaurant video production must capture the full sensory experience of dining — the sizzle of a pan, the theater of tableside service, the energy of a packed dining room — and compress it into content that makes viewers hungry. The format ecosystem spans Google Business Profile videos (30-60 seconds, critical for local search), Instagram Reels showcasing daily specials, YouTube recipe tutorials from the chef, and TikTok behind-the-scenes content that humanizes the team. Shooting during service is challenging due to low lighting, tight spaces, and the need to avoid disrupting diners. The most cost-effective approach is a half-day shoot producing 10-15 clips that feed 2-3 months of social content. Budgets range from 800 to 5,000 euros per shoot session, with the primary KPI being reservation volume growth tracked through platforms like TheFork or direct booking systems.
Restaurants with video on Google My Business receive 35% more reservations. Food content is inherently visual, yet capturing dishes at their most appetizing requires specialized food styling, lighting, and timing — most dishes have a "beauty window" of just 5-10 minutes.
Modern diners check video reviews and social content before choosing where to eat. 87% of consumers say video influences their restaurant choice. The challenge is creating content that conveys taste, texture, and atmosphere through a screen.
A Michelin-starred restaurant produced a 6-episode chef's table series showing the preparation of signature dishes. The series generated 800K views, led to a 3-month waiting list, and earned press coverage in national food magazines.
Professional food video drives measurable business results: menu videos increase average ticket by 15-22%, chef portrait videos build trust and personal connection, and social media food content generates organic reach 3x higher than any other content type in hospitality.

Character animation gives a unique illustrated persona to your brand — a mascot, spokesperson, or recurring figure that audiences recognize and connect with. We design the character from scratch (or adapt your existing one), build a rigged puppet in After Effects or Spine, and animate it with lip-sync, gestures, and expressive body language. This differs from generic 2D animation because the focus is entirely on a single character's performance and personality. A 30-second scene takes 2-3 weeks; we also offer character sheets and style guides for future reuse across campaigns.
You receive: animated video in all formats, source project files (After Effects/C4D), individual asset library (AI/SVG), Lottie files for web integration, GIF versions for social, and style guide documentation for future animations.
