Examples

Ads I made for my own studio.

Not client work: these run for Old Saybrook IT Solutions itself. I design and animate every ad myself, in code, and yours is made the same way.

What every motion ad gets

  • A hook in the first second, written to work with the sound off.
  • Music and sound effects made for the ad and timed to the picture.
  • Laid out inside each platform’s safe zones, so its captions and buttons don’t cover your words.

Horizon is widescreen and 29.5 seconds long. Longer, widescreen or multi-ad campaigns are quoted on a free call.

Static ads, from the same campaign.

A static ad set is one design like these, sized five ways.

  • Static ad: “Great business. Hard to find?” over a night horizon. “I build fast, custom websites for small businesses in Old Saybrook and along the Connecticut shoreline.”
  • Static ad: “A real mockup of your homepage, before you sign anything,” with a drawn browser window. Free. If you don’t love it, walk away.
  • Static ad: “You own it. Code, domain and hosting in your name. No lock-in,” with an open padlock.

How it works

From checkout to finished ad.

  1. Buy online.

    Stripe asks for your business name and phone number. Rather talk first? Call (860) 510-8692.

  2. Send your content.

    I get in touch within 24 hours for your offer, logo and photos, and check your ad fits. If it doesn’t, you get a full refund before any work starts.

  3. First cut within 3 days of getting your content.

    You see the whole ad, finished, not a sketch.

  4. Two rounds of changes, then it’s yours.

    Words, colors, timing: tell me what to change. Then you get the final files, ready to post.

Questions

Ad questions.

Do you run the ads for me?

No. I make the ad; you post it or run it from your own Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube or Google account. Ad spend isn’t included, and the platform bills you for it directly.

What do you need from me?

Your offer or message, your logo, and any photos you want in it. I write the words from that, and you approve them before anything is final.

Can I use the ad anywhere?

Yes. The finished files are yours to post and run wherever you like, for as long as you like. The music is made for your ad, so there’s no music license to renew.

Can you make a longer or widescreen ad, like Horizon?

Yes. Those take longer to make, so they’re quoted on a free call instead of sold here.

What if my ad isn’t a fit?

Before I start, I check your ad fits. If it doesn’t, I refund you in full.

A bigger campaign?

Longer, widescreen or multi-ad campaigns are quoted on a free call.
