Project overview and features

The founders of 1inch Anton and Sergej requested to make an explainer video about the service to promote the project to a wide audience around the world. After the completion of the 1st video, we got a request to create additional videos to announce new updates and features (iOS Wallet, Moonswap, etc.)

Client’s goals and requirements

  • Make the 1inch concept easy to understand
  • Get more users who will make the 1st swap
  • Get more twitter followers
  • Short form and great style to get more retweets
  • Align the style with brand guideline
  • Keep a minimalist style

Business objectives and current industry issues

  • Duration and location. Twitter has become a haven for crypto projects and helps them organically increase engagement and attract new clients. The client requested to make a video mainly for this social network. That is why we made the 1st video in the 60 sec limit.
  • Style. Our art director has chosen a minimalist style with no characters to focus the viewer's attention on very simple shapes.
  • Color decision. 1inch has a black color palette. But we decided to step back from dark colors and make the video more colorful in order to be closer to the mass market.

Work done

  • Communication. For good communication, we adapted to the founders' busy schedule and were very flexible.
  • Technical issues. We reserved 2 days for fixes, which helped us complete all fixes and finish the project on time.
  • Creative issues. We tested 5 different video color schemes and chose the one that attracts the most attention.
  • Business problem solving. We made a very dynamic video to grab attention and included a CTA at the end of the video.
