About the
project
If you want a diamond, there are two ways to get one…
You can mine one. Or, you can make one.
Yes, we know you can also buy one or… steal one. But for the purpose of our point we’re going to pretend capitalism doesn’t exist for a moment.
So what if you combined those things - mining and making diamonds? Well, that’s where you’d find our partnership with Polymathian.
While that intro was a bit of a stretch, what’s not a stretch is Polymathian’s assumption that we could make them a diamond quality video.
The mining industry is a saturated place for videos, so Polymathian needed something that would stand out above the crowd. So we got to work.
We have quite a bit of experience in creating videos for mining companies. So we’re perfectly situated to know exactly what common practice is in the mining world - and what we needed to do to stand out.
Using bright, clean imagery, we transformed statistics and diagrams into an engaging visual story. This combined with dramatic transitions and a creative approach to displaying the mining process, culminated in a video that stood head and shoulders above its peers.
Polymathian was stoked, we were stoked and another diamond was released into the world.

Every great video goes through rigorous testing and iteration, and this one was no different.
- We trialled multiple approaches to ensure the data visuals remained engaging yet digestible.
- We refined the animation pacing to keep the audience engaged while ensuring clarity.
- We polished the transitions and visual flow, making sure every second of the video felt smooth and purposeful.
The final result? A polished, high-impact animation that stood out in a crowded industry and delivered key messaging with precision and style.
The final animation was a diamond among rocks—a video that not only educated and informed but also stood out in a competitive space.
Polymathian was thrilled with the result, and so were we. Another flawless execution, proving once again that the right animation and video production can elevate a brand, simplify complex topics, and leave a lasting impact.
