How to make a corporate animation with Video Igniter

Video Igniter will guide you through these steps to turn your idea into a custom designed corporate animation:

1). Get In Touch

To get the production process started, we want to learn about the corporate animation you want to create. We’ll ask you about who your target audience is, what you want to communicate in your animation and what you want to show in your animation.

Then, we’ll develop a budget and a production plan to make your corporate animation.

When you’re ready to move forward, you will receive a production contract to sign and an invoice for 50% of your production budget.

Send us a message or schedule a call to discuss your animation with our team.

2). Script

Now that production is underway, it’s time to develop the script for your corporate animation. If our writers need to learn more about your talking points and the overall communication goals for your corporate animation, we may schedule a brief call.

When the first draft of the script is ready, you will receive a link to a digital copy of your script which you can review and share with your team. Everyone can add their comments directly to the digital document.

When all the revision notes are in, our writers will revise your script and share the 2nd draft with you to review and approve. If further revisions are needed, our writers will continue to work with you to polish your script.

3). Storyboard

Next, we turn your script into a storyboard. The storyboard functions like a blueprint for our illustrators and animators. It tells our team exactly what to create for every scene in your corporate animation.

You will receive a digital copy of the storyboard to share and review with your team. Each page contains a sentence from your script, a rough sketch of the scene and instructions that explain how things will move on screen. If there are any parts you want to change, you can leave comments directly on each slide.

Video Igniter’s storyboard artists will integrate your revisions and share the 2nd draft of the storyboard with you to review and approve.

4). VoiceOver

After the storyboard is approved, we’ll send you voiceover auditions to listen to. Let us know which person is your favorite and we’ll hire them to record the full narration for your corporate animation. You will get a chance to listen to the full recording and request edits, if needed.

5). Music

You will also receive a handful of soundtrack selections to listen to. Let us know which one is your favorite and we’ll acquire the appropriate license(s) to use the music in your corporate animation.

6). Art

Next, it’s time to create the art. Video Igniter’s art director will start by creating a few pieces of concept art for your animation, based of your corporate brand guidelines. When you review the concept art, share your honest feedback with the art director so they understand what you like and dislike about each concept.

After the concept art is perfected, we’ll create all of the art for your corporate animation. You will get an opportunity to review all of the illustrations and request edits, if needed.

7). Animation

Now that everything is approved, we can animate your video!

You will receive a digital copy of the animation to download and share with your team for feedback. We also recommend circulating the animation among members of your target audience to get their feedback as well. After everyone has had a chance to share their thoughts, send everyone’s feedback to us. We’ll integrate your revisions and render out the final draft of your corporate animation.

What does it cost to make a corporate animation with Video Igniter?

For 2D animation, most corporate animations cost between $1,500-$7,500 for a 60-second video. If you want to make a fancier looking 2D animation that’s created using hand drawn animation techniques, your budget will more likely be in the $7,500-$15,000/min range.

3D corporate animations tend to cost between $5,000-$25,000 for each 60-seconds of video we create.

For detailed pricing information, you can request access to Video Igniter’s pricing page.

Alternately, you can send us a message to get a quote or schedule a call to speak with our production team about your corporate animation.

How long does it take to make a corporate animation?

The normal production timeline for a 60-second 2D corporate animation is about 4-5 weeks. If your company likes to do multiple rounds of revisions or needs to circulate content internally with legal and brand teams, you may want to pad your production timeline by a week or two.

3D animation and hand drawn animation usually take about 6-10 weeks to create 60-seconds worth of animation.

If your animation is longer than a minute, add a week or two for each additional minute of content we create for you.

Need to speed up the production process to meet a deadline? Ask us about rush delivery animation.

Corporate Animation Budget Saving Tips

Combine these tips to save $1,000 or more off the cost of making your corporate animation.

1). Create The Script & Storyboard

If you write the script for your corporate animation, you can save $500 off the price of each minute of animation we produce for you. If you also create the storyboard, you can save an additional $500 off the cost of each minute of video we create. That’s up to $1,000 off the price of each minute of animation we create for you when you provide the script and storyboard for your corporate animation.

If you’ve never created a script or a storyboard before, have no fear! Download Video Igniter’s script writing template and storyboard template for help getting started.

2). Use Free Music

There are a handful of sites that offer free music that we can legally use in your corporate animation. If you select a song from one of these sites, we can remove music licensing costs from your production budget.

3). Record The VoiceOver

Is someone on your team going to lend their voice to narrate your corporate animation? If so, we can remove voiceover recording and licensing costs from your production budget. Want to see how to record professional quality voiceover’s at home for free? Watch 1:31 in this video.

4). Start Production ASAP

The easiest way to save money on your production budget is to start making your corporate animation as soon as possible. Rush delivery is available if you need to speed up the production process to meet your deadline. However, rush delivery can add 10%-25% or more to your production budget. If you want to minimize or avoid paying extra for rush delivery, send us a message to get a quote or schedule a call with our production team asap to start discussing your corporate animation project and goals.

2). Script

Now that production is underway, our writers will send you a list of questions to help us develop the scripts for your business animations. Popular questions include:

• What is the purpose of these animations?
• Who is your target audience & what problems do they experience?
• How does your product/solution solve their problems?
• What key messages do you want to communicate in your animations?
• What do you want viewers to do when they’re done watching your videos?

Armed with this information, our writers will develop scripts for each animation that show how how your solution solves the problem(s) your target audience experiences. When the first draft is ready, you will receive a link to review digital copies of the scripts for your animations. Add your comments directly to the doc and our writers will collaborate with you to polish the scripts until they’re perfect!

3). Storyboard

The next step is to turn the script into a storyboard. A storyboard is like a visual blueprint for your animations. Each page contains a sentence from your script, a rough sketch of the scene and a brief description that explains what is happening in each scene. This is how we organize instructions for the illustrators and animators so they understand what they’re supposed to create.

You will receive a link to review a digital copy of your storyboard(s). If there are any parts you want us to revise, add comments directly to each slide. Our storyboard artists will work with you to revise and polish each scene until everything looks great.

5). Soundtrack

Music is a great way to set the tone/energy for your message. Even better when it’s used to enhance key moments in your business animations.

Our team will select a handful of songs that will compliment the messages in your business animations. Give them a listen and let us know which one is your favorite. We’ll take care of acquiring the appropriate licenses so we can legally use the music in your videos.

6). Illustrations

To create all of the art for your business animations, our art director will start by creating concept art. The art director will review your brand guidelines and then create multiple scenes from your storyboard using different visual styles that align with your brand guidelines.

When you review the concept art, share your honest feedback about what you like and dislike about each visual concept. The art director will work with you to revise and polish your favorite visual concept until it’s perfect!

After the concept art is approved, we’ll create all of the illustrations for your animations based off the approved visual concept. You get an opportunity to review all of the illustrations and request edits before we animate your videos.

7). Animation

Now that everything is approved, we can make your business animations! It takes about 1 week to animate each minute of video. If you want to speed up the production process, ask us about the ‘rush delivery‘ option.

When the first draft of your business animations are ready, you will receive a link to download your videos. Give them a detailed review with your internal team and members of your target audience. Collect everyone’s feedback and send it to us. We’ll integrate your revisions and render out the final draft of your business animations.

3D Video Animation Examples

Video Igniter can make any kind of 2D or 3D animation for you. You can see some of our favorite example videos below. For additional production samples, check out our animation portfolio or request access to our demo reels and price sheet.

Contact us or schedule a call to start making your video.

How Can I Make A 3D Video Animation With Video Igniter?

Follow these 8 steps to get your idea turned into a 3D video animation.

1). Contact Us For A Production Quote

To get production started, send us a message to get a quote or schedule a call with our production team. We’ll spend some time learning what kind of 3D video animation you want to create.

Once we agree to the scope of the project, you will receive a production agreement to sign and an invoice for the first 50% of your production budget.

2). Script

Now that production is underway, we will write the first draft of the script for your 3D video animation. You will receive a digital copy of the script to review with your team.

Add your comments directly on the script and let us know when everyone’s feedback is in. We’ll integrate your revisions and share the 2nd draft with you to review and approve.

3). Storyboard

Next, we turn your script into a storyboard. The storyboard is the blueprint for your 3D video animation. It includes instructions for the illustrators and animators so they know what to create for every part of your video’s script.

You will receive a digital copy of the storyboard to review with your team. Add your feedback on the slides you want us to revise and let us know once all the feedback has been added to the storyboard.

Our storyboard artist will update your storyboard and send you the 2nd draft to review and approve.

4). VoiceOver

After the storyboard is approved, you will receive a selection of voiceover auditions to listen to. Let us know which one is your favorite and we’ll hire that person to record the full voiceover narration for your 3D video animation. You will get an opportunity to listen to the full recording and request edits, if needed.

5). Soundtrack

You will also receive a selection of soundtrack options to listen to. Let us know which one is your favorite and we’ll acquire the rights to use the music in your 3D video animation.

6). Concept Art

Video Igniter’s art director will review your style references and brand guidelines. Then, they’ll use that information to create some custom concept art based on scenes from your storyboard.

Give the concepts a thoughtful review and let us know your honest opinion about what you like and dislike about each concept.

We’ll use this information to polish your favorite concept until it’s perfect.

7). 3D Model Design

After the concept is approved, our 3D modeling team will create 3D models for every scene, character and object featured in your 3D animation video.

At first, you will get to review black and white 3D models that look like this:

We’ll work with you to revise and refine the shape and design of each model until it’s perfect. Then, we’ll add color, textures and shading to every 3D model and give you another opportunity to review them and share your feedback before we animate them.

8). Animation

Now that everything is approved, it’s time to make your 3D video animation. It takes about 2 weeks to animate 1 minute of 3D video.

As soon as the first draft is ready, you will receive a link to download a copy of your 3D animation. Share it with your internal team and members of your target audience. Collect everyone’s feedback and send it our way.

Our animators will integrate your revisions and render out the final draft of your 3D video animation.

How Long Does It Take To Make A 3D Video Animation?

A 60-second 3D video animation takes about 8-12 weeks to create, depending on the complexity of the animation style.

Need to speed up production? Ask us about rush delivery animation.

What Does It Cost To Make A 3D Video Animation?

At Video Igniter, most forms of 3D animation cost between $5,000-$25,000 to create each minute of animation.

To put this into perspective, it costs over $100,000,000 to make an animated movie like PIXAR does – which translates to over $1,000,000 to make each minute of the movie..

Budget Saving Tips For 3D Video Animation

Combine these tips to save 10%-25% or more off the cost of making your 3D animation:

1). Create The Script & Storyboard

You can save up to $1,000 off the cost of each minute of 3D video animation we produce for you if you create the script and storyboard for your project.

2). Record The VoiceOver

If you record the voiceover for your 3D video animation, we’ll deduct voiceover recording and licensing costs from your budget. Watch 1:31 in this video to see how you can record professional quality voiceovers at home for free.

3). Use Stock Assets

In some cases, it may be possible to slightly lower your production budget by buying pre-made stock assets, like 3D models of common objects , in lieu of having our 3D modelers create everything from scratch.

5). Start Production ASAP

The easiest thing you can do to save 10% or more off your production budget is to start production on your 3D video animation as soon as possible. Rush delivery is available if you need to speed up the production process to meet your deadline – however, rush delivery can add 10%-25% or more to your production budget. To minimize or avoid paying extra for rush delivery, schedule a call with our production team or request a production quote for your video as soon as possible.

1). Contact Us

Send Video Igniter a message to get a quote for your 10 second video. Alternately, you can schedule a call to discuss your project with our production team.

Our producers will work with you to develop a production budget and timeline to create your 10 second video(s). Once we agree to the scope of the project, you will receive a production agreement to sign and an invoice for 50% of your production budget.

2). Script

Production begins with the creation of your video’s script. It functions as the skeleton for your whole video. Our team will spend time learning what you want to communicate in your video – and then we’ll write the first draft of the script.

You will receive a digital copy of the script to review with your team. If you have any feedback for us, add your comments directly to the document. Our writers will update your script and share the 2nd draft with you to review and approve for production.

3). Storyboard

Next, we turn your script into a storyboard. The storyboard is the blueprint for your 10 second video. It tells illustrators and animators what to create for every part of your video’s script.

You will receive a digital copy of the storyboard to review with your team.

Add your revision notes directly to the storyboard and let us know when you’ve finished adding your feedback to the storyboard.

Video Igniter’s storyboard artists will revise the storyboard for your 10 second video and share the 2nd draft when it’s ready for you to review and sign off.

4). VoiceOver

If your 10 second video includes a voiceover, we will select a handful of voiceover artists to audition for your video’s narration. Give the auditions a listen and let us know which one is your favorite. We’ll hire that person to record the full narration for your video and share a copy of the recording with you to listen to.

If there are any parts of the voiceover you want the narrator to rerecord, let us know and we’ll work with the VO artist to get parts of your recording updated.

5). Soundtrack

You will receive a handful of soundtrack options that can set the tone/mood for your 10 second video. Give them a listen and let us know which one is your favorite. We’ll acquire the appropriate license(s) to use the music in your 10 second video.

6). Illustrations

Video Igniter’s designers will create concept art for your 10 second animation. Give them a review and share your honest feedback about what you like and dislike about each concept.

We’ll update your favorite concept according to your feedback and share the updated concept with you to review and approve.

Then, we’ll create all of the rest of the illustrations for your 10 second video. Give the art a review and let us know if there are any parts you want us to revise. Our illustrators will update the art according to your feedback and share the 2nd draft with you to review and approve.

7). Animation

Now that the script, storyboard, voiceover, illustrations and music are approved, it’s time to animate your 10 second video! As soon as the first draft is ready, you will receive a digital copy to review with your team and members of your target audience.

Collect everyone’s feedback and send it our way. We’ll integrate your revisions and render out the final draft of your 10 second video!

How long does it take to create a 10 second video?

The entire animation production process for a 60-second video takes about 4-6 weeks. Shorter 10 second videos still take a few weeks to make because each deliverable takes at least a day or two to create and review with your team before we can move on to the next stage of production.

In general, a 10 second animated video can be made in about 2-3 weeks.

Need to make your video faster? Video Igniter has a rush delivery production option available.  Schedule a call to discuss rush delivery options for your video.

How much does it cost to create a 10 second video?

The answer to this question requires a bit of explanation so bare with us while we go over a few points.

• 60 seconds of 2D animation costs between $1,500-$7,500 (most folks go with this option).
• 60 seconds of high end hand drawn animation costs between $7,500-$15,000.
• 60 seconds of 3D animation costs between $5,000-$20,000.

To get to the price for a 10 second animation, one would assume you could simply divide the 60-second price by 6 to get the rate for a 10 second video.

In reality, the math generally doesn’t work like this for videos below 30 seconds because short videos still require a full production team to get create the video and the budget for a 10 second video usually isn’t enough to cover all of the production costs at the rates detailed above.

So how do you know what it’ll cost to create a 10 second video? Here are a few options:

1. If you create 3 videos that are 10 seconds long, the rate will be about the same as creating a 30 second video.
2. If you want to just create one video that’s 10 seconds long, send us a message to get a quote or schedule a call and we’ll help you calculate the rate for your 10 second video.

Budget Saving Tips For Creating 10 Second Animated Videos

Combine these tips to save 10%-25% or more off the cost of creating a 10 second animated video.

1). Create The Script & Storyboard

If you provide the script and or the storyboard for your animation, you can save about $50-$150 off the cost of making your 10 second video. Need help creating your script and storyboard? Download our free templates for help getting started:

If your video includes a voiceover, we will deduct voiceover recording costs if you record the voiceover yourself. Watch 1:31 in this video to see how easy it is to record a professional quality voiceover at home for free.
