What style to use?
It depends on your needs, maybe you have a video in mind you liked that you would me to use as reference or you can watch examples of my different most common animation styles here:
What’s the first step?
The script! This is the backbone of your video and we will need it before I can start animating, a good script will make your project excel or fail. Make sure you understand the message you want to convey and that it’s clear and concise.
Can you help with the script writing?
Yes I work with a talented script writer who can make sure your message is on target and that it’s grammatically correct! We can also take any documentation that you have and create the script from scratch if needed.
Once the script is done, what’s the next step?
The voice over, I won’t be able to start animating until I have the voice over. Once the script is finalized, I will send a word out to my voice over talent pool. I will send you a link once I get a few auditions so that you can pick the one you like the most.
If you have your own voice over I can also use that and we can skip the audition process.
How is the animation process?
Once the voice over is recorded I will start the animation process. I will do a first run through of the animation and then share that with you. At that point you can tell me what you would like me change and we will repeat the process until you are happy with it.
But how about a storyboard?
Unless you have a very complex cinematic concept they are overkill when it comes to explainer videos. Avoiding them here will help you keep the costs down.
What else do you need from me?
Any branding materials or graphics that you think might help including branding guidelines, fonts, color scheme, photos, illustrations and logos.
What is the final delivery?
.mp4, HD video file(s)
How much does it cost?
For an accurate estimate, let me know your desired style and the estimated length of the video. If you have a script or a voice over share that with me. Also, let me know what other assets you will be providing from your end. Once I have all of this information I will estimate the cost as either an hourly or fix project amount, depending on your preference.
