Animation Ideas For Your Next Marketing Video

The key to successful video marketing is producing content at scale; to give your audience reasons to keep coming back and engaging with your brand.

As a creator, you need to give your watchers something new to get them hooked on your channel and continue growing your brand.

The only problem with that is: regularly coming up with new ideas is hard and too often you find that many of your ideas have already been used.

But don’t worry because this is where animations can help you.

Animations are one of the best ways to step up your video content with a sprinkle of creativity. From fancy text to moving images, with a little extra detail, your audience will be hooked.

In this post, we’re going to provide you with animation ideas including intro ideas that you can use to produce better video content.

We’re going to cover animations that you can use in your video intros, transitions, and mid-content. Let’s dive in.

Animation Ideas For Your Introductions

Intros are the most important part of any video because if you don’t immediately captivate your audience, this could be all they watch.

According to Facebook, 65% of people that watch the first 3 seconds of your video will watch it for at least 10 seconds. But if your intro isn’t up to scratch, your audience could fall in the 35% blackhole.

Branded introductions are an excellent way to make your mark on your video content. Especially when it’s the first thing they’ll see, with a strong branded intro, your audience will recognize your content and keep watching due to the goodwill you’ve generated..

And for those who don’t know your brand, it’ll build brand awareness by making them focus on your company name and tagline for a few crucial moments.

Search Engine Query

This animation template is all about search. With this template, you can make a video that looks like you’re searching for your video topic without having to actually put it together yourself.

Google even says that how-to videos earn the most attention than any other category on YouTube. So appeal to those searchers and give them the answer they’re looking for.

You can customize the text of this template so that the search is exactly related to your content. For example, if you’re creating a video on editing photos, try putting in the exact question your viewers would search for so it would be “How to edit photos easily?” And you can customize the audio too!

Photo Opener-Horizontal

This template is the definition of visual with the chance to add a whole bunch of images. It makes the perfect intro to your videos.

You could add screenshots from previous content or even add product photos to clearly show what your brand is about. You can also change the text of this template to fit your creative title.

Animation Ideas For Outros

While an intro might introduce viewers to your brand, your outro is all about getting them to take action. To close your video, you need a strong Call To Action so that your audience knows what to do next.

Whether that’s visiting your website, buying your products or following your socials – every marketing video you create should have an end result in mind that prompts your watchers to take action.

And instead of just adding some basic text that will probably go unnoticed, you want to make it look attractive and obvious. Otherwise, it’s a great opportunity missed.

According to KISSMetrics, a CTA within a video gets 380% more clicks than their normal sidebar CTAs. So if that hasn’t convinced you to use one, nothing will.

Animation Ideas For Scene Transitions

Transitions are the parts that make your story fit together seamlessly by progressing each scene.

If you want a high-quality video, clips that are chopped together aren’t going to work.

Modern internet users expect a flawless viewing experience, if they find your video editing to be jarring, they’ll most likely abandon your video there and then.

Stop this from happening by using animated transitions to hide your scene changes and provide a flawless viewing experience.

In addition, with a little customization, you can make transitions that add an extra brand touchpoint to your content, which is crucial!

Thorough branding throughout your videos will increase its ROI and raise the profile of your business.

It includes your logo so that throughout your video your audience will see your brand. And any new viewers won’t be able to forget it! You might not get a seamless transition with this one, more of an edgy one that will fill your viewers with nostalgia.
