Explainer videos that make the idea clear

Show what a product does, how a service works or why a process matters. We turn your approved information into a script and storyboard, then build the animation around the idea your audience needs to understand.

What we make

●Product and service explainers built around one clear message.
●UI and app demonstrations from your actual screens, design files or recordings.
●Animated diagrams, statistics and processes from approved source information.
●2D motion graphics, typography and 3D elements where the subject needs them.
●Voice, captions and versions for a landing page, presentation or campaign.

For broader animation and campaign graphics, see motion graphics.

Tools

After Effects, Illustrator, Premiere Pro and 3ds Max where 3D is required.

How the work runs

Define the question

Tell us what the audience needs to understand, what they already know and what action the film should support. Supply the product information and any approved claims.

Approve the script and storyboard

We establish the message and visual sequence before full animation. Product screens and technical details come from your team, with review points agreed in the scope.

Animate and finish

We animate the approved sequence, add voice, music and captions as scoped, then deliver the agreed lengths and formats. Later changes can be quoted from the project files.

The work

Product, app and infographic examples from the existing portfolio show how we explain interfaces, services and information. No conversion lift or business outcome is inferred from these films.

Questions we get

The question and viewing context decide the length. A single feature may need a short film; a process may need more context. We agree the script and duration before production rather than fitting every subject into one template.

Yes. We review the script for visual structure and flag what needs supporting material or clarification before storyboarding.

Yes. Screens, design files and recordings let us show the actual interface instead of inventing product behaviour.

Claims and factual statements come from your approved material. Your team approves the script and any required legal wording before the film is finished.

We scope the script, illustration, animation, voice and delivery versions into production days. Duration alone does not determine the price; visual complexity and review requirements matter.

What clients say, in their words

Every line is quoted as written. Nothing is edited for effect.

Motiohead have been an absolute pleasure to work with - consistently high quality work, very speedy, trustworthy and well priced. I'd definitely recommend to others and I'd also definitely work with them again. They are also excellent communicators and are very accommodating with updates to briefs, which has been a real help. We'll be working with Motiohead again for sure.

I've used Motiohead on a few occasions and couldn't recommend them highly enough. Always prepared to go above and beyond to ensure we meet our tight deadlines (without any issues). Always a pleasure to work with and plan to use them again in the future.

We have used the company several times for video and editing jobs. They have always been very professional, had great equipment, understand the brief, and edited the video to our exact specifications. We have used them more than 10 times and will continue to do so going forward. Great work.

Motiohead were fantastic for our latest documentary project. We handed them a ton of research, and they transformed it into brilliant, clear, cinematic motion graphics that drove the story. They were incredibly fast and delivered without any fuss. If your film needs high-end visuals then motiohead are a great choice!

Motiohead have been incredible during our post production edit process. Turning around edit after edit with very tight deadlines. They understood quickly what we required and actioned accordingly. A huge thank you to project manager Arseniy who has provided a 1st class service and delivered this project and also our super star editor Mark. Thank you to the Motio team and I look forward to working with you in 2023! Highly recommended:)

Enjoyed working with the team, our fist time experience was flawless. Motiohead understood and followed the brief and did not hesitate to ask where things were not clear. Shared professional opinion and triple checked that we were satisfied before issuing invoice. Excellent customer service overall and would highly recommend. Will certainly use services again. Thanks.
