Turn complex messages into memorable stories

The brain remembers visuals

We remember 80% of what we see, 10% of what we hear, and 20% of what we read.

With an explainer video, you combine the best of all worlds and create a form of communication that engages, explains, and is remembered. By drawing on principles from animation video and corporate illustration, complex ideas are transformed into clear, visual stories that resonate with your audience.

 

Did you know that the average human attention span (8 seconds) is shorter than that of a goldfish (9 seconds)? That’s why it’s crucial to capture your audience’s attention fast. Explainer videos are designed to do exactly that.

 

Visual formats such as animation and illustration make it easier to simplify complex processes, create recognition, and keep viewers engaged long enough for the message to truly sink in.

What is an explainer video?

An explainer video is a short, precise, and engaging video that communicates your message visually. It typically lasts 1–2 minutes and focuses on:

  • Solving a problem for your target audience

  • Explaining why your solution is the right one

  • Guiding the viewer toward a clear call to action (CTA)

A great explainer video is tailored to your audience and produced with a quality that matches your brand or product.
