Explainer video production

An explainer video is a short, engaging video that simplifies complex products, services, or ideas. At Venture Videos, we use a combination of clear storytelling, compelling visuals, and concise messaging to help your audience quickly understand what you do and why it matters.

An effective explainer video is clear, concise, and engaging. It breaks down complex ideas into easily digestible parts, uses visuals to enhance understanding, maintains a logical flow, and includes a call to action. It's tailored to the audience's knowledge level, keeping them interested without overwhelming them.

We recommend tracking key performance metrics, such as:

• Engagement & Watch Time – How long viewers watch before dropping off.
• Click-Through Rates (CTRs) – On embedded calls to action.
• Conversions or Leads Generated – Did viewers sign up, request a demo, or make a purchase?

We can also integrate your video with analytics tools to help you monitor results over time.

Most explainer videos perform best in the 60–90 second range. This time frame is long enough to convey essential information without losing viewer interest. However, certain topics may require slightly longer or shorter videos—our team will recommend the ideal length for your message.

Creating a product explainer video involves several key steps, including planning, scripting, storyboarding, production, and editing. All of which Venture can do for you! Here's a general overview of how to make a product explainer video:

1. Determine your target audience Consider who your product is designed for and what their pain points are. This will help you create a video that speaks directly to your audience.

2. Define your key message

3. Develop a script

4. Create a storyboard

5. Decide on the video style
   Choose the video style that best suits your brand, product and audience. 

6. Record the voiceover
