Top Explainer Video Production Studios

An explainer video makes a product, service or process clear in a short film for a homepage, sales deck, onboarding flow or ad. Explainer video production companies write the script, design storyboards and style frames, record professional voiceover, and produce the film in 2D motion graphics, 3D animation, whiteboard style or live action with screen recordings, then deliver cut-downs and captions for each channel. SaaS companies, medical device makers and financial firms commission one for a launch, a hard-to-grasp product, or sales calls that keep explaining the same thing.

Judge studios on scripts as much as visuals: ask for a past script and storyboard next to the finished film, and check the revision rounds at each stage.

Buyer's guide

Hiring Explainer Video Production companies

What the work covers, how to judge a partner and what drives the price.

What explainer video production companies do

Scriptwriting is the core of the work. A studio interviews the client, finds the one problem the video should solve for the viewer, and writes a tight script before any visuals. Storyboards and style frames follow, then voiceover casting and recording, an animatic that sets timing, and full production: illustration and animation, or a live shoot with screen recordings. Sound design, licensed music, captions and localization finish it.

Deliverables usually include a master file plus versions in widescreen, vertical and square formats, shorter cut-downs for paid social, and captioned files for silent autoplay. Some studios add a thumbnail, a GIF loop for email or still frames for presentations.

Engagements are a single video at a fixed price, a series for a product line or onboarding program, package tiers with a set style and length, or a retainer for product marketing teams that ship features constantly.

Explainer Video Production FAQs

Short answers to what buyers ask before hiring a Explainer Video Production company.

Question not covered? Ask our team

An explainer video production company writes, designs and produces short videos that explain a product, service or process. It handles scripting, storyboarding, voiceover, animation or filming, sound and music, and delivers the final video with cut-downs, captions and formats for websites, ads and sales use.

Explainer video cost depends mostly on style, length, illustration detail, voice talent and the number of versions. Whiteboard and simple motion graphics cost least, 3D and live action most. Most studios listed here set a minimum project of $1,000 or $5,000, and premium 3D studios start at $25,000 or more.

An explainer video should be as short as the message allows, usually a single focused idea that holds attention to the end. Homepage and ad versions are shortest, while onboarding and sales videos can run longer because the viewer already wants the detail. Plan cut-downs for social placements from the start.

An explainer video sells the idea: the problem, the solution and why it matters, often in animation. A product demo video shows the product in use, step by step, usually with screen recordings. Explainers suit the top of the funnel; demos suit buyers evaluating features or users learning the product.

Firms in this listing most often produce for advertising and marketing, business services, consumer products, healthcare, arts and entertainment, education, ecommerce and media clients. Healthcare and medical device videos need claims reviewed before release, while education clients often order series for courses and onboarding.

The largest groups of explainer video studios on this page are in London, New York, Los Angeles, Dubai and Toronto, with New Delhi and Mumbai close behind. Animation work runs well remotely; choose a studio near you mainly when the explainer needs a live-action shoot.
