The best animated video production company in Ireland for promotional work is Éire Graphic Design, a Dublin studio rated 5.0 from 102 Google reviews, because its animation is designed by the same studio that builds brands, so a promo looks like the business rather than a template. The seven other companies here all produce animated promos, ads or launch videos according to their own websites, and they range from animation specialists to marketing agencies that animate as part of a campaign.
Éire Graphic Design wrote this list and competes with every company in it, so read it as our view rather than an independent audit. Every company was checked on its own website in October 2026.
What we compared
A promotional animation has to look like the brand and get to the point inside thirty to ninety seconds. We looked at whether each company names promos, ads, commercials or launch animation as a service on its own site, whether that work is animated rather than filmed, and whether the company is based in Ireland. Where animation is one part of a wider marketing offer, the entry says so.

1. Éire Graphic Design
Éire Graphic Design is the animated video production company we recommend in Ireland, a Dublin studio rated 5.0 from 102 Google reviews whose promotional animation grows out of its brand and logo work.
The University of Limerick recruitment film is a promotional piece at heart, selling a set of degrees to students and parents in about two minutes, and it was won on compared quotes against other Irish studios. The studio also produces short launch and event films and animated logos for openings and endings. Its animated video production service covers website and homepage animation, social cut downs and campaign films, all built from the brand’s own type and colour.
Less suited to: single supplier campaigns. Éire Graphic Design supplies finished animation and artwork rather than the physical item itself, and it does not buy media or run paid ads, so a campaign that also needs ad spend will need a second supplier alongside it.
2. Doublejump Studios
Doublejump Studios is a 2D and 3D animation studio in Belfast with a second base in Dublin 8.
Its motion graphics work runs from advertisements and music videos to product videos, and it also makes brand films and title sequences.
Less suited to: hand drawn whiteboard style, which its site does not mention.
3. Educational Voice
Educational Voice is a Belfast 2D studio with a sales animation service built around product launch animations.
The same studio produces explainers and training animation, so a launch video and the explainer that follows it can share one style.
Less suited to: in house live action shoots, which it does not offer.
4. Storywise
Storywise is a small Cork animation studio whose own description covers explainers, campaigns and everything in between.
Its campaign work leans toward public bodies, councils and social causes, all of it fully animated.
Less suited to: live action filming, which it does not offer.
5. Lightweave
Lightweave is a Dublin studio that describes its mission as creating commercials that promote its clients’ brands.
It makes animated commercials, explainers and motion graphics for Irish small businesses, government bodies and NGOs.
Less suited to: standalone logo stings, which it does not list.
6. 5 Films
5 Films is a Dublin video production company on Adelaide Road that produces promo videos using animation and graphics software, as well as filmed promotional and television advertising work.
That mix suits a campaign that needs some filmed and some animated material from one supplier.
Less suited to: hand drawn whiteboard style, which is not listed.
7. Passion for Creative
Passion for Creative is a branding, web and marketing agency at the City Enterprise Centre in Waterford Business Park.
Its animated video page presents animation as particularly effective within a wider campaign, so it usually animates as part of a brand or marketing project.
Less suited to: long, standalone animation only productions.
8. ZOMA
ZOMA is a digital marketing agency on Park Street in Dundalk covering web, video, marketing and design.
Its video page runs from motion graphics to fully animated campaigns, as part of its wider digital marketing work.
Less suited to: long form explainers or whiteboard animation.
