FAQs
How much does it cost?
As a general guide I usually charge £895 GBP per minute of completed animation for a standard motion graphics presentation. Some animation styles are more time consuming to develop (particularly 3D design and character animation), which may increase the basic fee.
Can I have a voice-over with a regional accent or a different nationality?
Sure, just tell me your requirements and I’ll let you know if there is any additional cost involved.
Can I host the video on my own server instead of YouTube?
In addition to the high resolution master copy the animation can also be supplied in compressed MP4, WebM or Ogg format, should you want to host the video on your own server.
How long does it take to produce an Explainer Video?
I usually estimate a development timescale of approximately 1 week per minute of animation once a script has been agreed and recorded. However, some animation styles may be more time consuming.
