Case Study: Bringing ProWake’s Brand to Life with 3D Logo Animation
In a visually competitive world, grabbing attention is more important than ever, especially for niche markets like wakeboarding. ProWake, a wakeboarding gear retailer, wanted to stand out and create a memorable experience for their customers both online and in-store. To achieve this, ProWake turned to Vatic Design to create a 3D version of their logo and transform it into an animated visual experience. This case study explores how we helped ProWake enhance its brand identity, boost engagement, and increase visibility with a dynamic 3D logo animation.
project overview
ProWake needed a way to make a stronger impact on social media and offer a more immersive brand experience in their physical store. Their goals were to:
The Challenge
- Create a unique brand signature that would stay with customers long after seeing their content.
- Strengthen brand recall by standing out on social media and offering something memorable in-store.
- Engage customers visually, especially on Instagram, where they share most of their marketing videos.
The Solution: A Dynamic 3D Logo Animation
To achieve ProWake’s vision, Vatic Design created a 3D version of their logo, adding depth and dimension that wasn’t possible with their existing 2D design. Once the logo was brought to life in 3D, we developed three different animated video versions – 30, 15, and 5 seconds long – so they could use the animation in multiple ways across different platforms.

How We Did It: Bringing the ProWake Logo to Life in 3D
STep 1:
Converting the Logo to 3D
Our design team took ProWake’s existing logo and transformed it into a 3D graphic, adding depth and detail to give it a modern, realistic look. This new 3D version of the logo not only looked more engaging but also fit perfectly with ProWake’s identity as a trend-setting, forward-thinking brand in the wakeboarding industry.
Step 2: Creating an Animation that Reflects ProWake’s Energy
We developed animations that reflect the brand’s energy, aligning with the thrill and action associated with wakeboarding. By adding movement and texture to the 3D logo, we created an eye-catching animation that leaves an impression.

Step 3: Tailoring Video Versions for Multi-Platform Use
Finally, we created three versions of the animated logo video in different lengths. The flexibility in video length allowed ProWake to seamlessly integrate the animation across their social media posts and in-store displays:
- The 30-second animation is displayed on a TV in their physical store, giving walk-in customers a captivating display of the brand.
- The shorter versions (15 and 5 seconds) are used as an outro for their Instagram and social media videos, serving as an action-packed brand signature at the end of each post. This is ideal for social media, giving their Instagram audience a quick, memorable look at the brand.
The Impact: Benefits of Using 3D Graphics and Animation for ProWake
1. Boosted Brand Visibility on Social Media
Using the 3D logo animation as an outro in their Instagram videos has helped ProWake capture more attention and engagement. The added depth and detail make the logo memorable, while the animation leaves a lasting impression on their audience. Since 3D logos evoke stronger emotional connections, ProWake’s audience is more likely to recognize and remember the brand when they see it again.
2. Enhanced In-Store Experience with a Dynamic Display
The 30-second animation on their store TV gives ProWake’s physical location an upscale, modern touch. Customers entering the store see the moving 3D logo, which creates an immersive brand experience. It helps reinforce ProWake’s identity as a premium wakeboarding brand and creates a visually engaging environment.
3. Strengthened Brand Identity and Recall
The animated 3D logo not only looks great but also helps ProWake build a stronger brand identity. The animation adds a dynamic layer to their marketing materials, which resonates well with their active, thrill-seeking audience. As a result, customers are more likely to remember ProWake, whether they see the brand on social media or in-store.
