Context

Driving leads

Formant’s marketing team needed a white paper to drive leads and showcase thought leadership. With content drafted, they needed a visual design that clarified complex technical ideas and worked across digital and print while maintaining the brand identity.

Context

Motion graphics for LinkedIn promotion

Challenge

Increasing engagement

Technical white papers often lack engagement, especially with busy executives and technical readers. The challenge was designing a layout that makes complex robotics concepts clear, digestible, and visually compelling to both audiences.
