Animated Marketing Video Production

turn boring into engaging

Build a world

Animation is an extraordinarily versatile tool. It can be used to explain complex ideas, make boring concepts more fun and engaging to watch, and even replace live-action videos when filming isn’t possible.

Think big

You can tell a simple story with just two people in a room with a few props. But that might not accurately explain the scope of your offering. Animation on the other hand can represent everything you want to say. Animations are commonly used in explainer videos or to get across big data, facts and statistics in a fun way. You can’t show that with two people in a room. With animation, you can really think big and deliver big ideas.

Sound ideas

An essential element of successful animation is often ignored, but it makes a huge difference and that is sound design. At Perspective Pictures we excel at sound design for animated videos. Animation coupled with sound or music can really bring your message to life, which makes it a perfect fit for keynote presentations or brand identity pieces.

Of course, you can also create animation without sound or mute the sound when needed and it will be just as effective, it all depends on what creative outcome you want to achieve. This means you can deploy them at trade show booths or as muted autoplay videos on social media without losing any impact.

Why use animation for an explanation?

Maybe you’ve created something new. Maybe you’ve solved a complicated problem. Maybe you’ve seen surprising results in your business. In any case, you have to explain it so that people will believe you.

As a visual medium, video lets you use more than words to explain whatever it is you need your audience to understand. Not only is this more effective, but it’s also more likely to be consumed.

How to use animation for explainer videos

Simplify the message

You want your website visitors to know in 90 seconds or less what it is you do. There are a million ways for attention spans to get hijacked but using clever illustrations, we can quickly lift the fog so our hero can press forward.

 People don’t buy something they don’t understand—especially if they don’t understand its value. An animated explanation video is great at helping people see your value.

Nurture your audience

 Explainer videos aren’t typically great for awareness. But they are great for further educating someone who’s considering your product or service. After watching an animation audiences are more likely to feel an affinity with your brand, resulting in brand loyalty.

Convert them 

 They are great at increasing conversion when you’ve got someone in the consideration phase of the journey. Thus, explainer videos are often effective on product pages, landing pages, or email campaigns.

As a visual medium, video lets you use more than words to explain whatever it is you need your audience to understand. Not only is this more effective, but it’s also more likely to be consumed.

What exactly is animated video production?

Animation production and motion graphics refer to the designed and illustrative aspects of videos that are created and not physically filmed. Mostly, they are graphic design elements and illustrations, put in motion to tell a rich story and deliver complex information simply. From animated explainer videos to slick cartoon style videos, motion graphics and animation are a great way to speak to your audience. They are also often incorporated in live-action videos.

Who is it for?

Selling products, ideas, and almost anything. Animated graphic design and motion graphics creates unique and beautiful visuals that walk the viewer through abstract creative ideas, sophisticated products, complex processes, or spice up educational information. There are countless effective ways graphics and animation can be utilized.

When to use this video type?

Animation and motion design production is perfect for visualising information that is difficult to grasp, can be understood without sound, and can turn a simple idea into a beautiful video. Use them often, even if it’s just because you think they are cool.

Why animated?

Video is an incredibly powerful form of communication. For many businesses and brands, it now sits right at the heart of their digital strategies. It can help you create a strong corporate brand identity, share your messaging and also drive lead generation.

Animation in particular can really help you make a splash. Unlike live-action content, animated videos have far few limitations; so you can really let your imagination run wild with the creative aspects.

The advantages of using animation

Engage

The extent to which you can customise an animated video has only one limit – your imagination. This versatility makes it possible to create professional videos with any colours or themes, character concepts, brand qualities and a host of other customisations.

With animated video, we can easily pull in your brand assets like fonts, colour schemes, design standards and persona definitions to make the video genuinely unique.

Tell your story effectively

Animated video makes it easy to switch between different storytelling styles of varying complexities. As such, we can help you convey a simple message using a basic explainer video or switch to more complex storytelling like offering a complicated tutorial, all while using the same character animation videos.

Whatever story you want to tell, animated video has the flexibility to convey it exactly how you want to tell it.

Easy streamlined process

Other types of video like live-action require scouting for a location, fielding numerous casting calls, and flying in talent and crews to a centralised location. Creating an animated video does away with all this because the entire production process can be completed with a team working remotely.

Even voiceover talent is often recorded and sent online to ensure as little overheads as possible. Moreover, any changes to the video are easier to make compared to live-action videos.

Cost-Effective

In general, animation costs less to make than live-action videos. When making your animated video, there is no need to hire filming crews and videography equipment, pay for and travel to shooting locations or hire expensive actors.

Since we do everything in one place with mostly computer-based equipment, the cost of producing an animated video tends to be relatively low.
