Arbor Vita8 | Full Spectrum CBG Immune Booster Tincture

This series of animated product videos for Arbor Vita 8 is quick, fun, and flashy.

As a leading source for all things hemp, Arbor Vita8 needed to convey what their new products did, as well as their polish and professionalism as a company. But, while that's a great starting point for any product video, it's still not enough. Tone and style were key. The last thing we wanted was to make these videos dry and boring! 

The first step was locking down our visual approach. Animator David Hixon achieved incredibly sleek 3D renderings of the different products, including the CBG Immune Booster Tincture featured here. To start, the client shipped him the physical products. He then used a ruler and a caliper to make detailed measurements. Next, it was on to Maya, to model each product and set up UV maps for them. Following these initial steps, David made the rest of the videos in Adobe After Effects, using Element 3D to import, texture, and surface the models. With help from Lead Animator Trey Gregory, David animated all the motion in AE and added lighting to make each product shine.

With the visuals proceeding smoothly, writers Jordan Nowlin and Cameron Shaw tag-teamed the scripts. They conjured as much wit as they could, then abandoned that and thought of as many silly puns as possible! Ok, but for real: they did a great job of balancing humor and information. Finally, the chosen voice of AV8, our own Collin Ingram, belted out the scripts with undeniable gravitas and charisma.

From hard work to word play, this video and it's counterparts cover the full spectrum of what makes great product videos. With a stellar effort from an animation department, they came out looking CB-Gorgeous.

Why Your Product Video Needs More Than Just a Pretty Picture

When producing a product video like Arbor Vita8's Full Spectrum CBG Immune Booster Tincture, the visual quality is just the starting point. The real challenge is earning the viewer’s attention quickly and sustaining it through a clear message, compelling pacing, and relevant proof points. Successful videos connect the audience’s needs with the product’s benefits, all while reflecting the brand’s professionalism and tone. Without this strategic foundation, even the slickest animation risks feeling hollow or forgettable.

From Physical Product to 3D Animation: The Production Workflow

Arbor Vita8’s animated videos started with a hands-on approach: the animator received the physical tincture bottles, measured them precisely with calipers, and created detailed 3D models in Maya. This precision ensured the digital versions matched the real products exactly. After modeling, the team imported these assets into Adobe After Effects using Element 3D for texturing and lighting. This workflow highlights the importance of combining accurate product representation with creative animation techniques to achieve a polished, professional look.

Balancing Information and Tone in Scriptwriting

The scripts for Arbor Vita8’s videos were crafted to strike a balance between informative content and engaging tone. Writers experimented with humor and puns, but ultimately focused on clear communication that resonates with the target audience. The voiceover performance added gravitas and charisma, reinforcing the brand’s credibility. For your own product videos, invest time in script development to ensure the message is both memorable and aligned with your brand voice.

Planning for Multiple Deliverables and Distribution Channels

One key lesson from Arbor Vita8’s production is to plan versions and formats before you start shooting or animating. A single hero video often needs cutdowns, vertical crops, captioned versions, and thumbnails tailored for different platforms like social media, landing pages, or paid ads. Early coordination between creative, production, and post teams helps avoid costly last-minute fixes and ensures every deliverable fits its intended use perfectly.
