Description

Money falling from the sky, ping-pong, succulents, and lots of tech; these are just a few of the visuals we used in our new animated explainer video for Clarus R&D.
Clarus helps entrepreneurs take advantage of the Research and Development Tax Credit by offsetting their payroll tax.
We were asked by Clarus to create a fun, accessible and colorful explainer video that appeals to their audience of angel investors, incubators, payroll providers, and other professional services that support the startup community.
From the first rough script all the way to the final musical note, our team of collaborators crushed their role. Our copywriting partner, Gregor Gilliom of Versatile Words, knocked it out of the park as usual with a motion-ready script. Voice over artist Matt Hays delivered a confident and friendly read. The talented Kelly Warner from Scorechamber Audio crafted a fresh, original track with full sound design.
This is the result.

Here's a story every start up needs to hear. For years, one of the biggest federal tax breaks went only to the biggest corporations, and that gave them a real advantage. But in 2016 something amazing happened. A small change in the federal tax code resulted in a very big opportunity for start ups and early stage companies. For the first time, federal research and development tax credit now extended to the little guys, and that meant qualified startups. Companies less than five years old with under five million and revenue could save tens of thousands of dollars or mawr each year by reducing their payroll taxes. The only problem was, a lot of these companies didn't hear about this change, and those that did simply didn't have time to figure it all out. That's where we come in. We're Claris, and we helped start ups access the R and D tax credits they've earned.
