About STAR Autism Support (SAS)

Its mission is to help others successfully implement research-based applied behavior analysis (ABA) techniques. STAR Autism Support is committed to the principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). The organization wants every child with autism to receive effective instruction. Since its inception in the early 2000s, SAS has worked with over 2,500 school districts and over 25,000 educators across the United States and throughout the world.

STAR Autism Support's challenges
Lack of in-house animators
STAR Autism Support has been a leader in autism teaching strategies, particularly in building capacity for districts, regional programs, and states of all sizes to effectively serve students with Autism Spectrum Disorders and other developmental disabilities. Recently, the organization sought to create 14 animated song videos for its curriculum.
Talent coordination between deliverables takes time
As part of SAS's use of evidence-based practices to make positive educational outcomes accessible to all students and educators, the organization had guidelines to make the videos more effective and engaging. Quality plays an essential role in the organization's outsourcing effort. However, finding reliable animators and coordinating between them to get a final deliverable took time and effort.
Revisions can add to costs
As it was STAR Autism Support's first experience creating animated videos, adjustment to the workflow and deliverables was unavoidable. Requesting back-and-forth revisions required bandwidth and resources.

Voice overs and animators from one platform
In 2021, Bunny Studio expanded its catalog of services from voice overs, to over 100 creative services. The new services adopted the same project fulfillment model, including quality control, skill hunting, and total project coordination. This enabled STAR Autism Support to outsource all formats of its educational material production from one provider. The centralized solution also simplified expenditure tracking and allowed SAS to speed up content production without hiring a full-time animator.
Responsive coordinator cuts down delays
STAR Autism Support was assigned a project coordinator to oversee the entire process, including managing deadlines, ensuring instructions were met, and coordinating revision requests. The real-time communication channel unblocked delays caused by back-and-forth collaboration and quality issues that did not comply with SAS guidelines. In total, it took Bunny Studio about 7 weeks to complete 14 ready-to-use video animations for SAS.
Covered revisions saved costs
Bunny Studio's unlimited revision policy enabled STAR Autism Support to make multiple changes to the project until it got exactly what it was looking for. The unlimited revisions, the money-back guarantee, and quality control measures made expenditure predictable for SAS and prevented overspending.
