Polymathian

Polymathian takes the guesswork out of how businesses run and understand their operations. No matter the industry, no matter the hurdle - Polymathian is here to help. And they knew exactly who to come to when they needed to get that message across.

At Explanimate!, we’ve made an executive decision: maths is gross. It’s official. So, if someone offers to do our maths homework for us, we’re very, very happy. That’s why we excitedly accepted when Polymathian approached us to develop a video that would communicate the benefits of their industrial mathematics technologies in a clear, engaging way.

Discovery & Strategy

To effectively tell Polymathian’s story, we needed to highlight the vitality of what they offer to audiences and potential clients. The first step? Demonstrating the practical applications of their technologies in an accessible way.

We started with the big picture... literally. A sweeping view of Earth set the stage for the video, illustrating how mathematics-based technologies play a crucial role in powering entire countries, as well as the global import and export industries.

Concept Development

Import and export businesses aren’t exactly relatable to most people. To bridge that gap, we began zooming in. We showcased planes, trains, ships, and trucks - familiar sights that helped ground the concept for everyday audiences.

By displaying this range of industries, we ensured there was something for everyone to understand. As the visuals brought these processes to life, the voiceover explained the data-driven decision making behind them, reinforcing how these businesses rely on industrial mathematics to function.

Visual Design

But this video needed to do more than just show how mathematics powered technologies work. We needed to demonstrate how Polymathian could optimise these processes for businesses.

To achieve this, we transported audiences directly into the Polymathian tech world. With everything bathed in the blue sheen of fresh technology, viewers watched as the Polymathian interface influenced the inner workings of planes, trucks, and ships previously seen in the real world. This seamless transition solidified the connection between Polymathian’s technology and its real-world applications.

Testing & Refinement

Throughout development, we worked closely with the Polymathian team to ensure the animation remained accurate and compelling. Every visual and narrative decision was made with a balance of technical precision and engaging storytelling in mind.

The voiceover played a key role in reinforcing Polymathian’s impact, explaining how their solutions optimised operations while the visuals reinforced the benefits in action.

Launch & Results

The final product? A dynamic, engaging explainer video that Polymathian loved. The video effectively broke down complex industrial mathematics into something digestible, visually compelling, and, dare we say, fun.

While we still think maths is a little gross, making this video was epic. If only Polymathian had been around to help with our homework all those years ago.
