A good explainer video is a powerful tool for getting information across to viewers. These short but powerful explainer videos take core aspects of the topic (whether this is your service, manufactured product, or company training) and present them in an engaging and compelling way.

Whether you want animated or live-action – or a mix of both – high-quality online videos do a great job of connecting with the viewer.

What is explainer
video animation?

If you choose an animated explainer video then the animation process itself is important. There are many styles of animation and choosing the right one can make or break the tone of your animated videos.

For example, you wouldn’t want an animated adorable-but-crazy egg discussing the benefits of a funeral specialist. For something serious like a funeral services provider, a good production company will present you with a number of tasteful options that make the topic easier to discuss.

Depending on your target audience – customer, client, or even employee – there is usually an animation style suited to you – no matter what your product or service is.
