RJDM · Creative + Technology studio · Since 2001
Animation and film, paired with the apps and AI behind them. One studio for the story and the system that delivers it.
Led personally by
Ricky O'Donnell · Founder & CEO
What we do
Creative, technology and AI under one roof.
Animation that makes complex ideas land. Explainer, training, medical and motion, built to clarify, not decorate.
Portals, dashboards, mobile apps and immersive experiences. The user-facing layer that sits alongside the systems we build.
Business systems, integrations and internal tools. Software that fits how your operation actually works.
AI that does real work inside your business. Embedded in the systems and production you already run.
Senior strategy, scoping and creative direction that drive the right decisions, before a pixel moves.
Cinematic brand films, documentary and corporate film that audiences actually remember.
Two crafts. One studio.
Most studios pick a side. We don't. Animation and film on one bench, apps and AI on the other, built together so message and machine land in lockstep.
Since 2001, RJDM has moved between animation, film, apps and platforms without handing the hard part over the fence. Creative thinking sets the direction. Technical thinking makes it travel.
The real problem
Most work doesn't fail because it's bad. It fails because no one stopped to ask what it was really for.

Our working method
Creative and technical judgement, applied together from the first question to the final delivery.
We listen, ask the sharp questions, and find the real problem.
We strip away the noise and identify what your audience actually needs.
We build it. Animation, film, system, or all three.
Production and engineering run together, so the work moves quickly without losing the craft.
Tell us what's not working. We'll come back within one working day with sharp questions, not a sales script.
A real person replies within one working day.
