How much does a 60-second animated video cost?
Pricing varies, but most basic 60-second explainer videos start from £750 depending on the complexity, style, and whether you need scriptwriting or voiceovers.
What’s included in the cost of an animated video?
All Squideo videos include 2D animation, sound design, and unlimited revisions. You can also add scriptwriting, voiceover, multi-language options, and more. Check out our 9-step process above for more detail.
How long does it take to produce an animated video?
Turnaround time varies from 6–8 weeks depending on your deadline and feedback speed. Speedy options are available if you need it faster, but there is an increased charge.
Can I get multiple videos created as part of one project?
Yes! We offer volume discounts up to 15% for multi-video projects. Whether it’s a training series, onboarding toolkit or campaign rollout, we’ll help you scale your content affordably.
Do you create voiceovers in different accents or languages?
Absolutely. We work with a wide range of UK and international voiceover artists and can provide accents, tones and even translated voiceovers to match your audience.
Do I own the video once it’s completed?
Yes, you’ll receive full rights to your final video, ready to use across your website, social media, presentations, or paid ads.
What Affects the Cost of an Animated Video?
Animated video pricing can vary depending on the complexity and scope of the project. Here are some of the most common factors that influence cost.
- Scriptwriting & Storyboarding - Crafted to clearly explain your message and keep your audience engaged
- Animation Style - Choose from whiteboard, motion graphics, cartoon, infographic, or custom styles of 2D animation
- Voiceovers & Sound Design - Professional voice artists and audio production elevate the quality and clarity
- Video Length – Naturally, longer videos require more time and animation effort
- Revisions & Feedback Loops - While some studios charge extra for multiple rounds, Squideo offers unlimited revisions to make sure you’re 100% happy with the final result. No hidden fees, just clear collaboration.
- Turnaround Time - Short deadlines may incur a rush fee to prioritise your project
- Custom Characters & Scenes - More bespoke or detailed visuals increase production time
- Multi-Language Versions - We offer both translated voiceovers and on-screen transcripts in multiple languages. We always recommend starting with an English version first, then we can localise your video for global audiences.
- Interactivity & Call to Actions - Interactive elements or clickable CTAs can also influence pricing
- Number of Videos - Volume discounts apply if you need multiple videos at once
Every project is different and that’s why we’re happy to provide a tailored quote if you need something outside the box.
