Animated explainer video production includes the planning, creation, and distribution of animated explainer videos. Working with a professional production crew, creating an animated explainer video is quite simple.

The process goes like this:

Pre-Production

The concept for the video is planned. This is where the topic or subject is defined, and the underlying plans for animation will begin to be defined. The style of animation is also set.

Production 

This is when the animations are created. Whether 3D modeling, CGI, or hand-drawn animations are used, the production process will involve the creation of the animated characters, scenes, or backgrounds that will make up the video.

Post-Production 

This is the final stage of animated explainer video production. During post-production the animations are edited and narration or voice-overs are incorporated in as well as music and other effects. 

Upon completion of post-production, the animated explainer video is ready for distribution to the desired platform. Sharing animated explainer videos is simple!

We recommend they be shared on your website, blog, social media platform, in emails, or anywhere you expect your intended audience to spend time.

How Long Does Animated Explainer Video Production Take?

This depends on the style of animation and various other factors. Typically, animations can be produced in a few weeks, but complex modeling or simulated animations can take longer to create, especially if there is a lot of research that must be done before the animations can begin. 

The amount of time that it takes for customers to provide feedback when rough drafts are submitted can also add to the total time that it takes to produce an animated explainer video.

Hire the Right Team
