Our approach

Reduce complexity

We stand up for a more understandable world. Our explanations are designed to help your target group better understand the context and take action more quickly.

Think holistically

We approach every project with a holistic mindset. We always think from your brand's perspective and far beyond just a video.

Working together

We have high expectations of our work and the collaboration with you: efficient work processes and a collaborative working spirit for mutual success.

A small team with huge motivation.

Our values

Let's crack it!

And to make the world a little better.

Insight into the office of the Nutcracker explainer video agency from Frankfurt am Main
In a bright office there is a desk with a sign: Do Epic Shit.

Homemade in Sachsenhausen.
Here we crack nuts together.

On an old building floor in the heart of Sachsenhausen, we write new success stories every day. Many of them start with a strong espresso and a kick-off meeting at our studio bar. There you talk directly and personally with us - the creative makers who design and successfully implement your explainer video project from start to online. Why don't you come by for an espresso?

And we can do all that for you.

With all our experience and attention to detail, we create videos that touch your target group.

Portrait of Klaus Schwope

Who is Klaus?

Klaus was an award-winning creative director at international advertising agencies. Today he leads the Nutcracker team of copywriters, illustrators and motion designers. With Nutcracker, Klaus was one of the first in Germany to specialize in individual, outstanding explanatory video communication back in 2010.

Thanks to his brand expertise and international agency experience, Klaus brings valuable know-how to the conception and production process. The plus point for customers: He is personally involved in every project. When Klaus is not cracking nuts, he is the father of two teenagers, the owner of a hunting terrier, a waterproof runner and a pain-free fan of 1. FC Köln - favorite nut variety: macadamia.
