When the topic is complex, animation does the explaining

Tax forms, medical procedures, regulated workflows, multi-step onboarding — content where being wrong is worse than being unmemorable. I start from your source material and animate until it becomes obvious.

Why this works

Why guidance videos earn their cost back in support tickets alone

Guidance animation is the format for content that has to be precise. Tax law, medical procedures, regulatory compliance, multi-step onboarding — anywhere being wrong is worse than being boring. I start from the actual source material (the actual regulation, the actual workflow) and animate from there, not from a creative's imagination.

The numbers usually surprise clients. A ₪4,200 guidance video that explains your onboarding cut support tickets by 38% over the following quarter for a SaaS client of mine — they had been spending roughly ₪6,000/month on tier-1 support, so the video paid back inside the first month and kept paying back after that.

I work alongside the subject-matter expert, not around them. Most studios write a first-draft script and ask the client to "review for accuracy" — which turns into 4-5 revision rounds of corrections. I do the opposite: your expert writes the technical content, I translate it into visual storytelling and a script. Fewer rounds, more accuracy, faster delivery.

Co-authored with your SME

Your expert writes the technical content. I translate it into visuals and pacing. Fewer revision rounds, fewer accuracy mistakes.

Process visualization

Multi-step workflows become flowing diagrams that read in motion. The viewer follows the logic instead of memorising a checklist.

Reusable across teams

One video serves help center, onboarding, sales calls, and internal training — the same source of truth in every channel.

Update-friendly

When a regulation or workflow changes, I re-edit at 30-50% of original cost. Source files kept for 5+ years.

Process

How we produce

  1. 1

    SME briefing

    Your expert walks me through the technical content. I ask questions until I understand it well enough to teach it back.

  2. 2

    Script + visual plan

    I write the script and visual plan. Your SME reviews for accuracy. We iterate until both the words and the visuals are correct.

  3. 3

    Production

    Animation, voiceover, on-screen labels for technical terminology, and chapter markers if it is a long piece.

  4. 4

    Final accuracy pass + delivery

    Your SME signs off the final cut before delivery. MP4 + source files (After Effects project) handed over.

Common questions

FAQ

How long should a guidance video be?

Depends on the topic. Onboarding flows usually fit in 60-90 seconds. Regulatory explainers run 2-3 minutes. Multi-step technical processes can run 4-5 minutes, but I usually split those into a series of 3-5 episodes instead.

Who writes the script?

Your subject-matter expert supplies the technical content. I write the script around it. Fewer revision rounds than an agency-first-draft approach, and the technical accuracy is much higher.

Can we update the video when our process changes?

Yes — update edits run 30-50% of original cost depending on the scope. I keep the After Effects project files for at least 5 years.

Do you produce series of guidance videos?

Yes. Some workflows are too complex for a single video — series of 3-10 episodes with consistent style is common. Per-episode price drops the longer the series runs.
