Overview
When Cluely came to us, the brief was simple and brutal: build a launch film on very short notice, with zero room for a second take. MakeApex handled the full UI build, then took it through animation, compositing, and visual effects - working in lockstep with production partner Alto Visuals to take the project from concept to final cut faster than the timeline had any right to allow. The result: a launch film that crossed 13.2M+ views within days of going live, turning a software launch into one of the most talked-about tech moments of the year - not bad for a turnaround most studios would've called impossible. Alto Visuals brought the production and live-action craft, MakeApex brought the UI, motion, and post — and neither half works without the other.
