Free · Online Brief Builder

You know you need a video. Briefing it is the hard part.

The brief builder walks you through the same questions we'd ask on a kick-off call: what it's for, who it's for, and the one thing it has to land. Answer what you can; we can work from as little as a list of key points.

  • Saves as you type, so you can stop halfway and come back whenever
  • Twenty-five questions, and only five that really matter
  • Ends with a document any production company could work from
  • Free, no card, and no password to remember

Three details and you're in. Nothing to install, nothing to pay.

How it works

Our Process

The video production process has never been easier than with Squideo. All you need is an idea, and we can work directly with you to build it into something inspiring.

  1. 1Brief

    Tell us what you're explaining.

    Who's watching, what they should do next, and the one thing they must remember. Our free Brief Builder asks 25 questions. Five of them really matter.

    Try the free Brief Builder
  2. 2Script

    We write it. You make it yours.

    We turn the brief into a script in plain English. You mark it up, we tighten it, and every line is signed off before anything gets drawn.

  3. 3Storyboard

    See every scene before it moves.

    Rough sketches show what happens on screen, line by line. No surprises in the final cut.

  4. 4Voice & music

    Any accent. Any language.

    Pick a voice that suits your audience. Licensed music and subtitles come as standard. Try a language:

  5. 5Animate

    Then it comes alive.

    Characters and scenes designed for your brand, storyboarded and produced by our team. You see a first draft and tell us what to change before anything is final.

  6. 6Deliver

    One video. Every channel.

    We cut versions for your website, LinkedIn and Stories. Training videos can live on Squideo Smart Hosting, with tracking built in.

Robert Griffiths

Fast turnaround and high quality. They were very good about making small changes to improve the final product.

Mick Silver

We get approached all the time by 'explainer video' co's from around the world - most produce very average output at exorbitant prices. But Squideo are different, young, bright, efficient & talented - they 'get' the message you wish to convey and produce a great product at a very good price = excellent value and I highly recommend them. Mick Silver - CEO Moovshack - the ultimate property app

Juniper Research

We were very pleased with our final video, which was very professionally produced at a very reasonable cost. The service we received was very friendly, and the turn-around times for amends was very quick. We would definitely use Squideo again for any future video projects.

Cherie Howlett

Professional videos, created quickly with excellent customer service.

Purple Tasche

We would highly recommend Fifty Squid for business videos. The service throughout was great and the final animation was better than we could have imagined.

Kevin Smart

Excellent service. Very easy to choose my style of video, sound, voice-over etc and then they managed to understand very clearly what I required based on my script and storyboard. The draft version was pretty much spot-on and only needed minor changes to get to final version. Friends and family who've seen the finished product are very impressed, as am I. Would heartily recommend Squideo. Kevin from TaxiPals

Chameleon Marketing

Squideo provided us with an extremely high quality, professional service, with a quick turnaround. They were attentive to our business needs and the final product was something that we felt really represented our brand! Thanks to all the team, would highly recommend! - Chameleon Business Interiors

Andrew Steele

Both of our businesses have used Fifty Squid to produce corporate videos and we could not be happier. The process is quick, simple (and extremely good value for money) and the results were stunning. We could not be happier and look forward to using them again in the very near future.

Matthew Craig

Fantastic results from the team at Squideo. Callum had the ability and patience to ensure that delivery of the final product was the standard required.

Rebeka Croshaw

I would recommend Fifty Squid to anyone! I had a brilliant little video made for my business and have had so many compliments about it. Thanks so much guys.

Nistor Busuioc

Great service, highly recommend. They have met my expectations and even much more.

Easirent Car Hire

Incredible Value for Money. We found this company through Twitter and contacted them for some advice which they were more than happy to give. The team have been helpful, professional and honest throughout and once we received our videos we were so happy with the quality. There was a slight worry the quality wouldn't be as good as expected due to the price being so low but we have been blown away both times with the effort put in and the ease to amend our products. Can't thank them enough, well done Fifty Squid. You're a model business! With Thanks, Easirent Car Hire
