What are animated educational videos?

Educational videos are videos tailored for learning. You’ll find them in classrooms, online courses, and training programs. The goal of these videos is to explain complex ideas in an engaging and easy-to-remember way. Educational video productions use visuals, animations, narration and storytelling to create a fun and effective learning experience for everyone.

Why are educational videos effective?

Video is an excellent tool for learning, and here’s why it works so well. Firstly, video grabs your attention and makes learning enjoyable. This excitement helps you remember information better. Secondly, it combines pictures and sound, which helps people who learn in different ways. 

Gisteo videos can make complicated ideas easier to understand by breaking them into smaller parts and showing them visually. They’re also easy to access whenever and wherever you want, so you can learn at your own pace and even come back to them later if needed.

Educational video production

What types of content can be produced for education?

Animated educational videos are fantastic for teaching a wide range of topics, including business training. They shine at clarifying abstract or complex ideas that might be tough to grasp with other methods. Tools like diagrams and cross-sections help people visualize things better. 

Whether it’s explaining scientific processes, historical events, math concepts, technological explanations, or business training, animated videos bring these subjects to life in an engaging way. They’re also perfect for storytelling, character development, and interactive scenarios that encourage active participation. Their versatility and visual appeal make them a valuable tool for presenting educational content in a way that’s both enjoyable and memorable.

Educational video production FAQs

Who can benefit from educational videos? 

Many organizations can benefit from educational video production. Schools, colleges, and universities can enhance their teaching methods. Training companies can provide engaging learning experiences for employees. Non-profit organizations and government agencies can educate the public. E-learning platforms and online course providers can reach a global audience. Any organization that aims to educate, inform, or train can use educational videos effectively.

How can businesses specifically benefit from educational videos?

Educational videos can serve various purposes for businesses, blending learning and engagement. For instance, businesses can create instructional videos to educate customers about product features, usage, or troubleshooting. These videos enhance customer satisfaction and reduce support inquiries. Moreover, companies can develop training videos to onboard new employees or provide ongoing professional development for their teams. This approach ensures consistent training and skill-building across the organization.

Businesses can also use educational video production to establish thought leadership. By sharing industry insights, tips, or tutorials, they demonstrate expertise in their field, fostering trust and credibility among their audience. Additionally, educational video content can be offered as a lead magnet to attract and engage the target audience. This strategy helps build rapport and credibility, ultimately strengthening the company’s position in the industry.

Can animation make complex material interesting? 

Absolutely! Animation can transform complex or dry educational material into engaging content. It visualizes abstract concepts, presents data in digestible formats, and simplifies challenging topics. Animation allows for creative storytelling, captivating visuals, and dynamic transitions, making educational content interesting and memorable.

Which animation techniques are effective for educational videos?

2D animation, mixed media, motion graphics and whiteboard animation can all be effective for educational video production. Motion graphics use dynamic visuals and animations to explain concepts. Whiteboard animation is also a popular option. The choice really depends on the content, audience preferences, and desired style.

What factors should I consider when choosing an educational video production company?

When selecting an educational video company, consider their portfolio to ensure their style aligns with your vision. Examine their process, pricing structure, and included services like revisions and turnaround times. Reading reviews and testimonials can help gauge their reputation and client satisfaction, providing valuable insights into their reliability and quality of work.

My company worked with Gisteo for a 90 second animated explainer video. After 10 or more consultations with different video production companies, we decided to go with Gisteo - they were affordable, transparent, and had a collection of videos that were very impressive. The team at Gisteo, and Stephen specifically, impressed us every single step of the way. They listened, responded in a timely and concise manner, and delivered the highest quality product. We had a very short timeline to get this video launched and they were able to cut through the noise and capture our message in a way that was relatable and exciting. Can't recommend Gisteo enough. We will be back 🙂

Gisteo was introduced to us by way of referral. After a consultation, a genre that would fit our needs was offered. Gisteo did an outstanding job translating our message in a bite-sized manner, getting straight to the heart of what was valuable to communicate.Gisteo proved to be an extremely experienced and professional partner that put into context our vision, fantastic storytelling (to the point), and production of our corporate video. We were so pleased with our explainer video that we immediately recommended Gisteo to our peers, and we will continue to do that as the occasion arises.Gisteo has since completed a second video for us with the equal skill of getting to the relevance of the message.Gisteo deserves a 5+ star rating. They articulate brand messaging, produce effective video material, and apply graphic design to meet the needs of any application.

Gisteo did an excellent job producing a recruiting video for my company, bright.com. Steve provided an incredible amount of valuable strategic marketing consulting on top of the video. He is really smart and talented. It is clear that his years of experience and enthusiasm for getting the message right differentiates him from others in the field.

I've worked with Gisteo twice now to make two different explainer videos and I've been impressed each time. They have a real creative vision that allows them to turn rough ideas into a very well executed video. I also want to point out the after sales service -- even months after the video has been completed and approved, they have gladly made tweaks to my videos for me at no charge. The pricing is very reasonable and they work quickly. If you're looking to get an explainer video made, stop looking and just go with Gisteo

I have been looking for something like this for my business for the longest time and the prices have always been out of reach for a small business like mine. Quality was so important as well and I must say Gisteo over delivered with what I was expecting. They have a whole marketing team that know how to send your potential clients a message in the most fun and informational way possible. I believe this video is the best investment I have made in my business and I could not be happier! Thank you so much to the Gisteo Team!

We used Gisteo for our non-profit's first animated explainer video and could not have had a smoother process. They understood the vision and goals of our video from the beginning, and provided helpful perspective and guidance throughout the scripting and storyboarding process. They were flexible and responsive to our feedback in drafting stages, and moved at rapid speed to meet our deadlines. We will absolutely be using them again.

I highly recommend Gisteo for those looking for an explainer video. Stephen was great to work with and couldn't have made the process any easier for our organization. He listened and understood what we were looking to convey and he nailed it. Quality video with an affordable price. If we do another video, we'll be reaching out to Gisteo and Stephen again.

My organization worked with Gisteo two separate times for a total of 3 animated explainer videos. Both were tight timelines and somewhat dense topics to explain. The Gisteo team made beautiful, easy-to-understand videos and made the process seamless. We handed off the info and the Gisteo team brought it to life with minimal involvement on our end--perfect for our busy organization. High quality product worth every penny (and competitive pricing, too!).

We had an excellent experience with Gisteo. Talked to many companies with a much higher price tag and a very complex process involving a ton of people. Gisteo offered a streamlined process with a single point of contact, and they got the story--and the look and feel for the animation--just right very quickly.

I can't say enough about the outstanding experience I've had with Gisteo. They recently produced a commercial for my company, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From the very beginning, Gisteo's creative ideas were not only innovative but perfectly aligned with our vision. Their ability to understand our brand and translate it into a compelling commercial was truly remarkable. The quality of their work is top-notch. The final product exceeded all our expectations, and we received numerous compliments on the commercial's production value and effectiveness. What sets Gisteo apart, in addition to their exceptional ideas and quality, is their responsiveness. Any questions or concerns I had were addressed promptly, and they made sure to keep me in the loop throughout the entire process. Even when we needed to make a few last-minute changes, Gisteo was more than willing to accommodate our requests, and they did so with lightning-fast turnaround times. Thank you, Gisteo, for making this experience a true breath of fresh air. Your dedication to our project and your commitment to delivering excellence have not gone unnoticed. I'm genuinely looking forward to working with you again in the future. If you're in need of a creative and reliable video production company, I wholeheartedly recommend Gisteo. They are a true asset to any project.
