These days we are constantly bombarded with ads from all directions: on our screens, in our ears, and even while we’re driving, someone is always selling us something. As people, we know it’s exhausting, and it’s causing fatigue, with “most Americans [saying] they only remembered 1%–10% of the ads they’d seen in the past 24 hours,” according to Marketing Brew. But as business owners, we know we have to get the word out somehow!
The challenge has changed from a matter of just getting the word out, to actually being memorable. Standing out can be tough, but the animated commercials we create at Luck Dragon Media can help your ad land in that unforgettable 10%. We specialize in bringing your brand to life with high-quality, creative, and fun animated content that tells your story in a unique and engaging way.
Key Points
- Animated commercials help brands stand out in a crowded, oversaturated ad landscape by using visual storytelling, humor, and creative flexibility to make ads more memorable and emotionally engaging.
- Animation offers broad audience appeal and versatility, allowing businesses to convey complex messages simply and connect with viewers of all ages across multiple platforms, from TV to social media.
- Luck Dragon Media specializes in creating high-quality, cost-effective animated content that reinforces brand identity, adapts easily to revisions, and is tailored to each client’s unique voice and goals.
1. Engagement Through Visual Storytelling
Animation has a magical way of bringing stories to life. With animation, we can craft vivid, imaginative worlds that resonate with audiences on an emotional level. Whether it’s a funny, heartwarming, or adventurous story-line, cartoons have an innate ability to engage and entertain while delivering your brand’s message. Memorably, Arizona Pest Control had quite the universe of characters that the team at Abbott Animation released back in 2021, with over 7 unique ads for all of their services!
2. Appealing to All Ages
One of the greatest strengths of animated cartoons is their universal appeal. Whether you’re targeting children, families, or professionals, animation is a versatile medium that can be tailored to suit any audience. Bright colors, fun characters, and quirky narratives can capture the attention of younger audiences, while more sophisticated animation styles can engage adult consumers. Animated commercials can also convey complex ideas in a simple, relatable way, making them suitable for products and services of all types, from tech innovations to family-friendly services. Another ad by Abbott Animation highlights how one of these ads might look. With animation, there are no limits to how we can shape your brand’s personality and voice.
3. Stand Out with Creative Flexibility
In the world of advertising, creativity is key. Animated cartoons allow for boundless creativity, from talking animals to larger-than-life monsters, we can explore concepts that are impossible to achieve in real life. This creative flexibility let us create this ad for De La Rosa and Sons Drywall, where our drywall hero kicked our drywall problems to the curb!

Our team at Luck Dragon Media had a lot of fun blending live action and animation in this one, and we can design your commercial to be as wild, unique, and memorable as your brand needs it to be, too! Whether you want to create a playful character that represents your brand or need a surreal, out-of-the-box visual concept, we have the tools and expertise to bring it all together.
4. Cost-Effective and Scalable
Animation allows for easy changes and revisions, too. If you want to tweak a character design or update the messaging, it’s much easier to do so with animation than with a live-action ad. This flexibility makes animated commercials a smart investment for both large-scale campaigns and smaller, targeted ads.
5. Strong Brand Identity and Consistency
Animated cartoons provide a fantastic opportunity to reinforce your brand’s identity. With consistent use of colors, characters, and themes, your animated commercial becomes an extension of your brand’s personality. Whether you are launching a new product, running a holiday promotion, or simply engaging with your audience, animated commercials can reinforce the values and identity that make your brand unique.
Furthermore, animations are incredibly adaptable, making it easy to re-purpose content for different platforms. Whether it’s a television ad, social media post, or a YouTube video, the same animation can work across multiple channels without losing its impact or message.
6. Social Media-Friendly Content
In the digital age, social media is an essential platform for connecting with your audience. Animated cartoon commercials are perfectly suited for social media sharing. Their fun, entertaining nature encourages users to share the content with their friends, increasing your brand’s reach and visibility. Plus, short, snappy animations tend to perform better in terms of engagement, as they are easy to consume and more likely to grab attention in crowded newsfeeds. With the ability to tailor the length and format for different platforms, we ensure that your animation fits perfectly within the social media ecosystem, whether it’s a 15-second Instagram story or a minute-long YouTube ad.
7. The Power of Humor
Humor is a potent tool for creating memorable ads, and animated cartoons excel in this area. When done right, humor in animated commercials not only makes the viewer laugh but also fosters positive associations with your brand. Funny characters, clever dialogue, and witty scenarios can humanize your brand and make it feel more relatable. I, of course, am partial to our ad we made for Arizona Billboard Company, where our poor bartender learns about how to get the word out about his business.
Brad and Michael did fantastic in striking the right balance between humor and messaging for this ad, and showed that they know how to create commercials that both entertain and inform.
