An animated how-to film for Recast, the app for watching and supporting the sports you love. It walks new users through signing up, choosing their sports, earning Cast Credits, previewing and paying per video, and searching for sports, teams, athletes and live events, all built from the app’s own screens.

How we animated the Recast app.
01 · The briefExplain a different model
Recast works differently from subscription services: there’s no subscription, viewers pay only for what they watch and the money goes to the creator or rights holder. New users needed a clear guide.
03 · The outcomeA step-by-step guide
A 2 min 45 sec animated explainer, from sign-up to live events, for online, digital and social channels.
02 · Our approachAnimate the app itself
We built the film from the app’s own interface, animating each screen with bold on-screen text and motion so every step is easy to follow without a voiceover.
