Have an explanation animation made

Do you have a product, service, or process that’s hard to explain? An explainer animation translates your message into a clear, visual video that makes it obvious at a glance what you do and why it’s important to your target audience.

As a studio specializing in explainer animations in the Ede region, we create animations that aren’t just beautiful—they actually work. Whether you want to launch a SaaS product, clarify an internal process, or need a campaign video, an explainer animation is the fastest way to get your message across.

We create explanatory animations for organizations throughout the Netherlands, ranging from growing startups to established companies, healthcare institutions, and government agencies.

What is an explanatory animation?

An explainer animation, also known as an explainer video, is a short, clear animated video that explains a single topic in 60 to 90 seconds. Its power lies in the combination of visuals, text, and sound: together, they ensure that the viewer both understands and remembers the message.

A good explanatory animation always has:

  • A clear problem statement that viewers can relate to

  • A clear solution that you offer

  • A specific call to action that encourages action

Explanatory animations are used on websites, in sales conversations, during onboarding, at trade shows, and in presentations. One video, endless possibilities.

Clear Problem Statement

That the viewer immediately recognizes

Clear solution

The ones you offer

Specific call to action

That impetus to take action

When should you choose an explanatory animation?

  • Your product or service is difficult to explain. Software, abstract services, or technical processes are hard to capture on film. Animation makes them visible and easy to understand.

  • You're losing visitors to your website. An explanatory animation on your homepage keeps visitors on your site longer and significantly reduces the bounce rate.

  • Your sales calls are taking too long. Send an explanatory animation beforehand, and your calls will be shorter, more focused, and more effective.

  • You want a consistent message. An explanatory animation always conveys the same message, every time, to every viewer. Ideal for onboarding or product explanations.

  • You want more leads. Research shows that visitors who watch an explanatory video are significantly more likely to convert than those who don't.
