Hire Freelance Animators for Your Brand
Looking to grab your audience’s attention? Animation might be just the thing. With a ClearVoice content strategist on your team, you can create and implement quality content marketing programs designed to drive success.
What is a Freelance Animator
An animator uses software to make otherwise static imagery come to life. We often think of cartoons when we think of animation, but there’s much more to it than that!
Animation in advertising saw a boom in 2020 when the COVID-19 pandemic made live-action video production nearly impossible. It remains a cost-effective solution for brands and advertisers today.
Like a graphic designer, an animator uses imagery to make complex ideas easier to digest.
Animated videos in content marketing can include:
- Explainer videos
- Sales videos
- Promotional content
- Social media
Animated videos are a fun way to reach your audience with the video content they demand, and thanks to current technology they are frequently cheaper to produce than live-action video.
Why should I hire a freelance animator?
A specific type of content production like animation requires a specific skill set. While there are a number of user-friendly animation programs available these days, they rely heavily on templates and don’t offer much in the way of customization.
If you want a custom product, you need to hire a professional.
An animator has the experience to know what resonates well with an audience and what doesn’t. And unless your content marketing strategy is predominantly animation-focused, having an in-house animation team might be unnecessary overhead.
Working with a freelance animator means you can hire them on-demand and they’ll work efficiently to deliver the product.
You’ll Get Better Quality
Hiring an animator means you’re not just hiring their expertise, you’re also hiring their tools. Professionals will utilize professional software and equipment to deliver their projects. Your company may not have a need for industrial-grade animation software, but you can guarantee the animator you hire will. Higher-quality tools in the hands of a pro mean you can expect a higher-quality result.
You’ll Build Trust with Your Audience
When it comes to animation, you often get what you pay for. If you try to cut corners with your explainer video, the end result will likely not instill a lot of confidence in the audience you’re trying to win over. The quality video you’ll receive when working with a professional animator will communicate to your audience that you’re invested in your brand story.
And a professional animator will be able to work within the confines of a brand identity to ensure that your videos maintain a consistent feel.
