Video Production Review from Idel Mena
They were an incredible partner from start to finish. They led the full creative direction and production for our campaign featuring Michael Douglas, delivering a video that not only looked amazing but performed exceptionally well, earning over 6 million views on YouTube and significantly more across paid channels.What stood out most was their ability to translate our mission into content that resonated across the political spectrum, engaging both conservative and liberal audiences. They brought strong creative and strategic thinking to the table, not just execution.The team was highly responsive, organized, and easy to work with throughout the entire process, and they handled high-profile talent seamlessly. Across multiple campaigns, including local initiatives, they consistently delivered high-quality work and exceeded expectations.We fully trust them as a partner and would absolutely work with them again.

Branding Review from Elyssa Katz
The Outright team is an absolute joy to work with! They took us from a kernel of a brand identity to a fully realized brand, merging two organizations, cultures, and constituencies into one under significant time constraints. Since we began working with Outright in August of 2024, we have developed and launched our core brand and related assets as well as three event brands, three sub brands, and a variety of practical digital and print assets. Not only is Outright's creative consistently excellent, but they are also a practical partner able to work with agility as an extension of your team. Our experience was so positive in initial brand development work that we've continued to work together for over 18 months and have signed them as a partner for separate digital campaign projects where they again delivered results that accomplished our internal team goals and exceeded the expectations of our external stakeholders. I would recommend Outright to anyone looking for a true creative thought partner.

UI/UX Design Review from Steve Goates
I've had the pleasure of working with Matt across several projects, most recently collaborating on the design of Merac's Next Generation ticketing platform and Food & Beverage ordering system. Matt is an exceptional UX and product designer who has an impressive ability to simplify complex problems into intuitive, user-centred experiences. He doesn't just create beautiful interfaces he constantly asks the right questions, challenges assumptions, and keeps the needs of the end user at the heart of every decision. What I particularly value is Matt's collaborative approach. He's open to ideas, enjoys healthy debate, and works closely with product, development and stakeholders to find the best solution rather than simply the easiest one. His creativity is always grounded in commercial thinking and practical delivery, making him an invaluable partner throughout the product development process. Beyond his design talent, Matt is simply a pleasure to work with. He's thoughtful, reliable, passionate about his craft, and genuinely cares about building products that make people's lives easier. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Matt to any organisation looking for an outstanding designer and collaborator.

We like to choose partners who can handle direction at a high level and run with it, and Indiegogh Creative did just that! They were great to communicate and work with. Not only did they meet deliverables, but they went above and beyond by providing helpful tools and articles we can use after our project with them ended. We look forward to working with Indiegogh again in the future in another capacity!

We are truly happy to recommend Piotr and his team. From the very first workshops to the final delivery, we felt we were working with people who genuinely listen and deeply understand brands. The team created our entire visual identity from scratch and gave a clear, distinctive character to a large, multifunctional space with many different services – which was a major challenge.The results exceeded our expectations. They delivered a cohesive and refined concept including murals, signage, wayfinding, posters, and many other visual elements.The cooperation was smooth and efficient – we quickly found a common language, revisions were minimal, and all our expectations were fully met. A highly professional, creative, and reliable team that we can wholeheartedly recommend.

My acquaintance with TeddyGraphics started more than 3 years ago when Piotr asked me for help in animation of one of his projects. From that moment our cooperation became quite close and I never refuse to help. I am always provided with a detailed guide and instructions on how and what exactly I need to do and also they always give me the necessary help if I have any questions or difficulties. In general for me as a freelancer to work with TeddyGraphics is always a pleasure, as they really appreciate my time and work. I will be happy to continue cooperation as working with TeddyGraphics is always a great experience.

Reese Noell's Review Sourced from Google
Working with Explainify was one of the best creative investments we’ve made so far.The video turned out phenomenal. It cuts through the noise and speaks to anyone, straight to the point, in a way our audience instantly understands. What really stood out from the start was the sales call with Grant — it didn’t feel like a sales pitch at all. He was laid back, clear, and made it easy for someone like me, who’s new to the business world, to really understand the process. He genuinely felt like he wanted what was best for us. And the production itself? Communication was the bread and butter. Julia was excellent — clear, responsive, and always on point. The whole experience felt smooth from start to finish.As a newly launched company, having a video that instantly communicates what we do was a game-changer — it’s already making an impact for Local Rentz.

Design Services Review from Monita K. Bell
The fields for this review were a bit limiting, as Square Lightning partnered with us for both design and editorial services, including writing and copy editing, as well as sourcing photographers across the country. As a small team within a nonprofit, we simply don't have the capacity to pull off a magazine project on our own. Thanks to the photography and editorial help (the writing and editing of half the stories) and complete design services Square Lightning provided, we have a beautiful, impressive product that well represents not only our organization but, more importantly, the families we serve. Their partnership has been invaluable!

Orianne T.'s Review Sourced from Google
I was contacted via email by a gentleman who claimed to be from this company. Of course doing my due diligence, I decided to contact Volt Studios to confirm whether or not I had been talking to a legitimate company representative (an idea I thought Volt would welcome, as it is always good to know if people are impersonating officials to prevent scams to valued clients). The person I spoke with was (1) rude and (2) hung up on me three successive times.I want to assume I was just unlucky to have been connected to the wrong individual, considering the positive ratings on the profile.

Google only gives you the options of Good Quality, Good Value, Professional, Responsive. These ratings are vastly inadequate when I think of the work I've done with VOLT since they first opened their doors.Fabulous Quality, Excellent Value, Extremely Professional and Hyper Responsive. These are the ratings I would give VOLT! Maybe Google needs to start working with better venders. Anyway, I love all the folks over at VOLT. They love what they do and they do it very well. If you need any post production services, some animation, a little color correction or a coconut water, please pick up your communication device and get in touch.

Camp LUCK's Review Sourced from Google
Thank you, Episode 11!It’s hard to capture in words what a summer camp experience means to kids. A very “regular" experience like summer camp is even more meaningful for kids with unique medical conditions. Since 2010 Camp LUCK has provided a positive experience that helps everyone reach their potential by building self-esteem, friendships and character in a safe environment. We want our “heart kids” to be “regular kids” for a week and participate in awesome activities that they might not normally be able to. Episode 11 volunteered to capture that experience — and did so — through the words and pictures of some of our campers. The campers’ candid interviews are a powerful reminder of what Camp LUCK means to these kids and their families. And without question, the video documents how much fun they have just being kids.

An explainer video company is a company that creates short, compelling videos to simplify complex ideas, demonstrate instructions for product use, or describe service offers. It produces moving content that effectively communicates a brand's message to its intended viewers in a visually appealing and easily digestible format.
By focusing on clarity and engagement, an explainer video production company helps businesses educate customers, drive conversions, and address the following challenges:
Difficulty in conveying intricate or technical concepts
Inability to deliver professional-looking, well-produced videos
Lack of educational content that can answer common customer queries
Weak engagement reflected in low view count, limited watch time, and high bounce rates
Failure to communicate clear branding and value propositions
Difficulties in enhancing conversion, optimization, and online visibility
Issues with adapting content formats to different platforms
Thanks to their proven effectiveness, explainer videos remain a vital tool for business growth, with nearly 70% of sales professionals stating these outperform other content types in generating conversions. Moreover, 88% of marketers incorporate video formats into their strategies, and the same percentage report that this form of content enhances users’ understanding of services and products.
Success Story
The following case study, handpicked by our expert team, showcases how a professional studio can effectively engage audiences with clearly conveyed messaging:
Challenge: Nissan faced hurdles in executing traditional marketing strategies due to social distancing and live-shoot restrictions during the pandemic. The automotive giant aimed to promote its "Safety First" campaign but struggled to find an effective method to reach its audience under the constraints.
Solution:Motiongility created an animated explainer video to effectively relay Nissan’s safety initiatives. It developed a storyboard to ensure a smooth flow of visuals and illustrations aligned with the client's brand image. The agency's animation process focused on maintaining visual appeal and neat transitions to sustain viewers’ attention. A professional voice-over was added to humanize the brand and give the video a distinctive personality.
Results: The final product was a 62-second explainer video animation that successfully captured Nissan’s safety message, as indicated by the increase in the following metrics:
Social ad impressions: 602,384
Video views: 378,587
Clicks to Nissan's website: nearly 1,500
"Safety First" web page views: 7,448
What do explainer video companies do?
Explainer video companies combine animation, narration, and dynamic visuals to break intricate concepts into understandable messages. These videos are valuable tools for businesses looking to enhance their marketing, sales, and communication strategies.
The style of an explainer video can vary depending on the client's needs, ranging from animated characters and motion graphics to live-action and whiteboard animations. Explainer videos help audiences quickly grasp information by simplifying intricate topics, which makes them an essential asset in a rapidly changing digital world.
The key explainer video services include:
Scriptwriting and storyboarding Developing a clear script and outlining the video's visual flow
Animation and motion graphics Designing custom 2D/3D/whiteboard animations and graphics that align with the brand's identity
Voiceover and sound design Providing professional voiceover artists to narrate the video and integrating sound effects or music to enhance the content's emotional appeal
Video production Producing live-action footage, if needed, and integrating it with other visual components
Video editing Ensuring the videos' engaging flow, smooth transitions, and optimal pacing
Revisions and feedback integration Refining the video according to client feedback and ensuring the final product meets the client’s expectations and goals
Custom branding Incorporating the client’s branding elements like logos, colors, and fonts into the video so it aligns with the overall brand strategy and messaging
Distribution and optimization Offering the video in different formats accessible on various devices to maximize reach and impact via websites, social media, and email campaigns
Analytics and performance tracking Evaluating viewer engagement metrics to gauge the video’s effectiveness
Success Story
Demoflick's success story showcases how tailored explainer video services and strategies helped Office Depot more vividly describe its diverse product range:
Challenge: With an extensive catalog of products and services, Office Depot needed a way to educate website visitors and minimize user confusion. It enlisted Demoflick to develop content that would provide detailed product information and improve customer understanding, ultimately increasing conversions.
Solution: Demoflick produced a series of videos emphasizing product benefits and high-value propositions. It also created "How To" guides with step-by-step instructions for navigating the Office Depot website. The explainer videos covered Office Depot’s offerings, such as the Flex Plan, Free Same Day In-Store Pickup, Store Purchasing Cards, Workspace Interiors, and the Order by Number eCommerce feature.
Results: Within 1 year of collaboration, DemoFlick produced over 40 explainer videos for Office Depot, significantly improving consumer knowledge about the client’s products and services. These videos helped strengthen the company's position as an innovative, tech-driven supplier in its market.
How long does it take to create an explainer video?
Creating an explainer video typically takes between four to eight weeks. This timeline can vary depending on factors such as:
Complexity
Content quality
Client feedback
Number of revisions
The length of the final output is another factor to consider. Here's a breakdown of the time required to produce the video, depending on its duration:
Basic explainer video (1 to 2 minutes): 4 to 6 weeks The process includes scriptwriting, storyboarding, voiceover recording, animation, final editing, and revisions.
Complex explainer video (2 to 3 minutes and more): >6 weeks This may involve intricate animations, multiple characters, 3D elements, custom illustrations, and extensive revisions.
How much do explainer video agencies charge for their services?
The pricing depends on the explainer video type, duration, topic complexity, and number of revisions. The agency’s reputation and size also affect production fees. For instance, a smaller studio may charge $2,000 to $6,000 per minute for basic 2D animations, while a larger studio's price may start at $5,000 and go as high as $10,000 per minute for a similar output.
Here’s a general overview of the average pricing per minute, depending on the video type:
The top 50 explainer video agencies on DesignRush charge an average of $89 per hour. 18.5% of these studios are open to projects with a budget under $1,000, making them accessible to smaller businesses and startups. Conversely, 1.4% accept projects with a minimum budget of $50,000, providing businesses with high-end production quality, tailored storytelling, and strategic content that enhances visibility and interaction.
Why should I hire an explainer video agency?
You should hire an explainer video agency to effectively communicate your message and engage your audience. These specialized agencies can craft clear, compelling, and visually appealing videos that inform, educate, and encourage viewer action. Their expertise in storytelling helps create memorable content that boosts brand recognition and generates conversions.

Success Story
The case study chosen by our subject matter experts illustrates the tangible benefits of partnering with an explainer video agency:
Challenge: Stanley Engineered Fastening, a Stanley Black & Decker label, needed an educational explainer video for its complex Electronics Engineered Standards Program within a tight four-week deadline. They approached Kasra Design for this task.
Solution: Kasra Design began with scriptwriting and character design, focusing on the client’s key messages and target audience, including storage businesses, mobile media, computing, and telecom networks. After presenting multiple style options, it developed storyboards to outline the visual direction and provided voice-over samples for the client. With approvals, it swiftly moved through the animation stages to stay on track despite the short timeline.
Results: Kasra Design developed a 2.5D animated video with 3D elements to represent the technical details of the Electronics Engineered Standards Program while maintaining the visual appeal. The high-quality content was completed within the expected 4-week timeframe, showcasing the studio's creative expertise and ability to handle complex topics under tight deadlines.
How do I choose the best explainer video company for my business?
To choose the best explainer video company for your business, follow these key steps to ensure you get a high-quality output:
Clarify your objectives Understand what you want to achieve with the explainer video: boost sales, illustrate a concept, or increase brand awareness.
Define your budget Knowing your budget helps narrow your options, as explainer video companies offer services at various price points.
Research agencies Find agencies on Google and credible online directories like DesignRush to build a long list of potential partners.
Read reviews Look for client feedback to assess reliability and work quality.
Check portfolios Review their portfolios to see if their style matches your brand’s vision. Look for diversity in their work to ensure they can adapt to your specific needs.
Assess creativity, video quality, and storytelling ability Evaluate the quality of the previous works' animation, voice-over, and overall production. Check if they can craft a compelling narrative that will resonate with your target audience.
Consider case studies related to your industry See how they have helped similar businesses achieve their goals. An explainer video production company familiar with your sector's norms and audience can create more relevant and impactful content.
Review technical capabilities Ensure they can offer customization to fit your brand's identity and use the latest technologies for animation and video production.
Consider post-production support Understand their policy on revisions and edits. Check for additional services like video marketing, distribution, or translation, which can be valuable depending on your requirements.
Submit requests for proposals (RFPs) and schedule interviews Shortlist up to five explainer video agencies to send an RFP to and meet for an interview.
Discuss the proposals During the meeting, talk more about the custom proposals you received. This will give you an idea of how the company approaches your needs and whether they understand your vision.
Evaluate production and collaboration processes Understand their process, from scriptwriting to final delivery, and how they maintain open communication throughout the project.
Compare rates and value Compare their pricing while considering the value they offer. Sometimes, paying more for a company with a strong reputation and proven results is worth the investment. Check what’s included in the pricing packages to avoid hidden costs.
Make a decision After gathering all the necessary information, decide based on which company best meets your criteria and offers the best value for your business.
