Wideo vs smooth.videoWhen smooth.video fits better
You need motion graphics, not characters: a title, a stat, a lower third, a logo reveal or an overlay for a video you're already making, and a yearly contract doesn't make sense for it.
You want a short animated video as a file you can put anywhere, today, in full HD or 4K, without a plan and without branding.
