mNectar Animated Video Production
People love to try before they buy… so why can’t we do the same with apps?
Well, now we can. mNectar creates in-app playable ad units so users can sample your app before installing.
mNectar came to us looking for a fun, fresh way to tell their story that goes beyond a standard demo. We came back with this colorful, bright video that explains the benefits of their mobile ad services to both advertisers and publishers. And now? Their brand-new explainer is front and center on their website.
But it takes a lot to make an explainer video. Here’s a snippet from a post of ours that goes over what it takes to make a great video:
Research & Kickoff
At this point, the video production house will dig into your resources – website, sales deck, personal expertise, etc. – to gain a deep understanding of your business. With that deep understanding in mind, they’ll work with you to develop a direction for your video.
Script Writing
This is easily the most important part of the process. If you don’t have a solid script, you don’t have a solid story. And without a solid story, your audience won’t connect with your video – no matter how high the production quality is.
Storyboards & Styleframes
Once the script is finalized and your messaging is set in stone, the video producer will create storyboards, sketching out your video scene by scene. A designer will also create a couple of style frames for your video – still shots of what your video will look like once animated. This is the time to make sure that you love your visuals! Make sure they’re on brand.
Voiceover
Audio is every bit as important as your project’s visual quality! Any video producer worth their salt will find a high-quality narrator that perfectly matches your story and your brand. Whether they’ve got in-house voiceover talent, or they sift through hundreds of submitted auditions, a great explainer video company won’t compromise on quality here.
Design & Animation
Once you’ve approved your style frames, the designer will style out the rest of your storyboard for an animator. The animator will execute animation with painstaking detail, making sure to match each piece of animation to the voice over recording.
Sound Design
You’ve got animation and a solid voice over. What more could your video need? You need a great music track and sound effects to really flesh out your video and give it the texture and depth it needs.
Finishing
Your producer will take the full mixdown of your project’s music and audio, combine them with your video, and render the whole package as a high-quality video in a downloadable format.
Phew! That’s a lot of info right? Well we can help build an explainer video for your company that you can be proud of just like charity:water. Click here to contact us today!
