A simple collection of images piled up together does not make an explainer video. It needs lot of hard-work right from storyboarding to screen planning. For instance, many explainer videos generate millions of customers; this shows how effective video can reach audience easily. But, a bad explainer video will not only lead to distraction, but also is more likely to send your customers away from your website.
Objectives: A clear view
Blocks of texts and few uninterrupted jargon of words can get the audience clueless. Also, the statements may seem to convey right meaning for the presenter, but the audience may interpret in a different meaning. Too many words often confuse the audience. But, the same does not apply with explainer video. Fine words are scripted by picking up the goals, objectives and features of the product.
Compelling Story
An explainer video focuses on the end results of the video. It demonstrates the need for the product and why the customers are willing to buy the product. Many startup companies struggle to make an explainer video. They either don’t get experts or they have a vague idea on how to compete with their competitors. If your video has a better story when compared to your competitors, then sales of your product will turn out to be good.
