Top 5 Examples of 2.5D Parallax Animation Videos for Digital Signage

Stunning 2.5D Videos for Digital Signage Campaigns

Digital Signage has a number of different styles and techniques to bring the brand message to life using motion graphics.

We’ve narrowed it down to a few different content styles, which include: Animated Static or 2.5D parallax, Lifestyle video, Computer Generated Imagery (CGI) and Digital Signage videos that use a combination of the three.

To make the production of digital signage easier, brands are starting to move away from Lifestyle and CGI videos due to the elaborate costs and time to produce these Digital Signage Videos.

Many brands are starting to use static imagery from printed signage displays, and retooling it for motion by using 2.5D parallax animations. This high production value animation technique brings static photography, logos and text to life! We’ve found five videos that really highlight the 2.5D Video Signage techniques.
