About dyrdee Media

dyrdee Media is an independent design and animation studio based in Berlin, Germany. Founded in 2005, it develops animated content, broadcast identities, commercials and brand experiences. Its work combines strategic development, design and moving-image production for television networks, entertainment platforms, agencies and consumer brands.

The studio works across 2D and 3D animation, character design, stop motion, live-action direction, visual effects and post-production. Its capabilities extend from early concepts and storyboards through character modeling, rigging, animation, compositing, editing, sound and finishing. Alongside conventional screen content, it produces immersive brand experiences using 360° media, augmented reality and virtual reality.

Broadcast identities and character-led campaigns

Broadcast design is a substantial part of the studio’s portfolio. dyrdee Media has created channel identities, on-air packages, promotional sizzles and seasonal animation for networks including MTV, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central, DMAX, Syfy, ZDF, SWR and Discovery. These projects span network branding, programme presentation and animated promotional content, bringing graphic design and animation into television environments.

Its entertainment work includes motion packaging for Paramount+ series Der Scheich, title design and branding for ZDF’s Blutige Anfänger, and on-screen graphics for KiKA’s Die Beste Klasse Deutschlands. Character-based work includes mascot development and animated advertising, with projects ranging from broadcast idents to consumer campaigns.

Animation beyond the television screen

The studio also develops computer-generated advertising for digital outdoor displays and social campaigns. For APG|SGA, it produced the character Roland for a 3D advertising campaign on Rail eBoards. Its KaDeWe and YSL work includes CGI imagery featuring lipstick and floating heart balloons, using fake-out-of-home techniques to present imagined installations in real-world settings.

Across its broader commercial practice, dyrdee Media serves retail, automotive, technology, telecommunications and cultural clients. Its combination of design, animation and production supports projects ranging from explainer and infographic videos to commercials, channel packages and immersive experiences.
