Styles of Explainer Videos

  • At CactusCan Media, we specialise in creating live action explainer videos. These videos showcase real people, products, and experiences, with individuals demonstrating and explaining a product or service.

    By providing a human touch, viewers can better relate to the content in the video, as compared to animated explainer videos.

    However, we recommend that when creating explainer videos for businesses, you should include 2D graphics and titles to ensure that the video is as clear and informative as possible.

  • Animated Explainer videos, whether they are 2D or 3D, use motion graphics and animation to explain concepts in a creative and enjoyable way.

    One advantage of choosing animated explainer videos is that they provide the opportunity to showcase your explainer in various environments and feature different characters. To enhance engagement, we recommend adding voiceovers and music to better explain the topic.

  • A screencast explainer video is a type of video recording of a computer or phone screen, along with added voiceovers and graphics to explain a digital product or process.

    Screen recorder explainer videos are particularly useful for companies that want to guide how to navigate apps, websites, or programs. They are useful for introducing new features or services on a website and ensuring that users are engaged with the new products.

    Screencast explainer videos are one of the quickest styles of explainer videos to create, which means a faster turnaround time for you and your business.

What is an Explainer Video?

An explainer video is a concise video that aims to explain how something works in a clear and informative way. These videos are often used in marketing to effectively show the benefits of a product or service and provide a comprehensive understanding of how it operates. They enable customers to comprehend complex ideas, concepts, or processes in the shortest possible time.

How do you make an Explainer Video?

To make effective explainer video content, we need to start by defining the message and purpose of the video. It's important to understand your target audience and create content that will engage them. When writing the script, it's helpful to focus on explaining the concept or process clearly and concisely. One approach is to imagine explaining the topic to a total stranger in just a few sentences. To make the explainer video even clearer, we suggest incorporating a range of visuals, animations, and voiceovers.
