21 years of Spin Animation! We’re excited to keep exploring the ever expanding landscape of animation.
Why Spin Animation?
OVERNIGHT RESULTS
We are located in Metro Vancouver on the West Coast of Canada. If you’re in Central Europe, this means a time difference of +9 hours. Based on this situation we have established an elegant day-by-day workflow: As a rule, you will get results first thing in the morning, no later than 9:00 CET! – There will be no wondering and waiting for deliveries.
PROFESSIONALISM
Not much has ever been achieved without commitment and dedication. We listen to you and care for your projects.
THE BIG PICTURE
We don’t just think outside the box, we also know there are multiple boxes, bags, bins, planets, possibly parallel universes. We expand ideas, approach from various angles, ask questions. Once the course is set, we aim to refine all components that make up the experience for maximum impact.
NETWORK POWER
Many of our contacts have been established in real life. Being full time professionals, they are specialists in their respective fields and have a vetted success history, covering a vast field of creative solutions. – Together we bring you the most powerful and cost effective team capabilities!

ABOUT
How, where, who?
EXPLORE
It is our second nature to always think outside the box and look for ways of improving the product on all levels. If you wish, we’ll provide new angles on any given idea and present them as suggestions.
FOCUS
Staying true to the message and follow the directive without getting carried away.
DELIVER
Responsiveness and timely deliveries are absolutely key in the fast lived advertising business. That goes without thinking.
SURPASS
We are happy when the client is happy. And we like to be “ecstatically happy” rather than “OK happy”. Therefore we don’t want to deliver just an “OK product”, but exceed expectations.
The Studio
In the upper regions of Port Moody, far above the last tip of the Burrard Inlet, is where the magic happens. Chips and screens and membranes in the service of art. Be our guest to take a look around the studio right here and now.
Simon Piniel
Spin Animation, that’s Simon Piniel and a vast creative network. Simon embraces all aspects of animation: Picturing a story. Finding the best way to visualise it. Finally bringing it to the point by refining motion, timing and composition. A speciality of his is to convey information simple and clear, but entertaining nonetheless.
He graduated in Visual Communications at the HGK Zurich in 2000, specialising in Film and TV. Loving Vancouver, he pursued animation studies at ECUAD. Later, he came to work on popular TV shows in local cartoon studios as storyboard artist and animator. After a few years, he finally settled in the Canadian city with his own company, working mostly for Swiss clients. He has also written and directed a number of shorts. Some have won him a number of prizes (even first!) at festivals worldwide – as well as an award by the BAK, the Swiss Department for Culture. Co-founding aktzeichnen.ch, a non-profit organisation based in Zurich is also among his accolades.
His inspiration lies within his wife and kids, art and the active outdoors.
