We want to make sure you feel confident that our service is right for you. Here we’ve looked to address some commonly asked questions. If you have any more specific questions, don’t hesitate to get in touch with a member of the team.

What are training videos?
Training videos are recorded learning tools built to teach a task or a policy, combining visuals, text and narration. Unlike marketing video, the objective is strictly instructional, which makes them a consistent way to share knowledge across a whole company regardless of location or time zone.
They also suit different learning styles, using sight and sound at the same time, and they let people learn at their own pace. Someone can pause, rewind or skip until the material lands, which a live session can't offer.
They take several forms, including step-by-step demonstrations for physical tasks, screencasts with voiceover for software, animation for technical or abstract concepts, and talking-head presentations. Most corporate programs cover six areas, which are onboarding and orientation, compliance, health and safety, product and service knowledge, technical skills, and cybersecurity awareness. Our guide to training video production goes deeper on each.
How long should a training video be?
Keep each training video to two to five minutes, covering one topic. That's the length that supports microlearning and keeps people watching to the end.
A single 20-minute module is where retention collapses, because viewers lose the thread and can't find anything again later. Splitting the same material into short modules also makes the library easier to update, since you only remake the module that changed.
What are the essential steps for producing a professional training video?
A professional training video needs a modular approach rather than a promotional one, which means tight pre-production planning, clean audio and visuals, and rigorous editing. Each video is built as a lesson, not a pitch.
The steps we run are a free sample so you can see the visual direction before committing, then planning and scriptwriting, then storyboarding every scene so you can see the whole video before anything is animated, then asset setup and animation, then your revisions. Nothing moves to the next stage until you've signed off the one before it.Two structural decisions matter more than the production quality. Keep each video to one topic, and design for updates from the start, since animated content can be revised remotely without rehiring anyone.
How do you create engaging employee training videos?
Engagement in employee training is mostly a structuring problem, not a production problem. Keep modules to two to five minutes, use clear audio, write conversationally rather than like a policy document, and give people something to look at that isn't a slide.
What loses viewers is cognitive overload. One topic per video, one idea per scene, and no narration competing with dense on-screen text. Animation helps for a specific reason, which is that you can show a process happening instead of describing it, and that's what makes it stick.
We run this as a four-step workflow of strategic planning, asset preparation, detailed storyboarding, then revisions, using 2D and 3D animation, branded motion graphics, UI animation and Lottie web assets. If you're building this into a wider customer or employee program, our customer enablement guide covers how video scales it.
What do you need from us to make a training video?
Your existing material is usually enough to start, like SOPs, policy documents, slide decks, a recorded walkthrough or screenshots of the system. One call with the person who knows the process fills in the rest.You don't need a script. We write it from your material and send it for review, and your subject expert checks it for accuracy before anything is animated. If you have brand guidelines, send those too, so the whole library looks like it came from your company.
Are our internal materials kept confidential?
Yes. Internal training content is handled under an NDA, with secure file transfer and limited access, and we can run secure data destruction at the end of a project if you need it.
That matters here more than in marketing work, because training material often contains policies, systems and customer data you'd rather not circulate. You also get full commercial rights and the source files for everything we deliver.
What formats do we get, and will they work in our LMS?
You get MP4 files with captions and subtitle files, which upload to any LMS or intranet, plus the source files and any platform versions you need. If you need SCORM packaging or another specific format, tell us early so we can plan for it.
We also deliver Lottie and web assets when the training sits inside your product rather than in an LMS, which keeps file sizes small and the quality sharp on any screen.
Can you update the videos when our policies change?
Yes. Because the videos are animated, we can update the scenes that changed instead of remaking the module, with no reshoot and nobody to rehire.
This is usually where a training library falls over, since policies change and filmed content quietly goes out of date. If you're updating regularly, the subscription works better than paying per video, because you can keep refreshing the library as part of the same monthly cost.
Can you produce the videos in more than one language?
Yes. We deliver multi-language voiceover and subtitles, with more than 40 UK and US artists, plus over 20 artists across six further languages.
Because the animation is built once and the audio is swapped, extra languages cost far less than producing each version from scratch. Tell us which languages you need before we start, since on-screen text has to be built to allow for it.
How much to charge for a training video?
Across studios that publish their rates, standard corporate training modules land between $1,000 and $5,000 per finished minute, and the full spread runs from about $300 to over $20,000 per minute. What moves the number is production style and instructional complexity, not runtime.
It breaks into four bands. Screen recording and talking-head sit lowest at roughly $300 to $1,200 per finished minute, which suits software tutorials and quick internal updates. Standard live-action runs about $1,000 to $5,000 per finished minute with an on-camera trainer, light scripting and basic graphics. Animated modules run about $2,000 to $8,000 per finished minute with custom storyboards and 2D or 3D animation. Full enterprise courses are quoted as a package rather than per minute, often $15,000 to $75,000 or more, covering several modules, workbooks and LMS integration.
The real cost drivers are pre-production, meaning instructional design and scriptwriting, the logistics of a live shoot with talent and crew, and post-production work like localization. For context, a 60-second animated training video from us is $5,140, which sits in the middle of the animated band. Our 2D animation cost guide breaks the pricing factors down further.
How much does it cost to hire a company for custom training video creation?
With us, a standalone project starts at $3,480 on fixed price, or $3,680 a month on a creative subscription if you need a series rather than one video. The total depends on instructional design complexity and animation style more than on runtime.
There are three tiers. Basic runs from $3,480 to $5,580 for 30 to 120-second videos, delivered in 4 to 10 business days. Premium runs from $4,080 to $6,200 for the same durations with more creative resource, in 8 to 18 business days. Enhanced runs from $5,140 to $6,700, in 10 to 20 business days, and adds 3D and enhanced sound design. Anything longer than 120 seconds is quoted individually.
Two things change the total. Timelines can be halved by doubling the production team, which costs 30% more, and professional voiceover with full commercial rights runs from about $460 to $850 depending on length. Every project is scoped around what the training needs to achieve, so if you're working to a set budget, tell us early. All the packages are on our pricing page.
What are the affordable training video production options?
The cheapest route is to make them in-house, using AI video tools, screen recording software and a basic setup, which removes external crews and studio rental entirely. For internal updates, that's often the right call.
A few things decide whether the result is usable. Write a precise script before you record anything. Find a quiet room, because bad audio ruins a video faster than bad visuals. Use screen capture instead of filming a monitor. And build reusable intro and outro templates so every module looks like it came from the same company.
Where that stops working is scale and complexity. A compliance module that has to be right, or a series that has to stay consistent across dozens of videos, takes more internal time than it saves. That's when a managed option makes sense, and ours starts at $3,480 per video with no internal logistics on your side.
What is the best software for training video production?
It depends on your workflow. At one end, AI tools turn text into presenter-led video in minutes with almost no learning curve. At the other, desktop editors give you precision, with screen capture, multi-track timelines and cursor tracking. Both are viable, and neither makes the editorial decisions for you.
We've tested a lot of these tools and written up which AI tools are worth using in motion design. If you'd rather not run any software, we're the alternative to in-house production, turning technical data, compliance rules and onboarding processes into modular training videos of two to five minutes each.
What are the top companies offering training video production services?
Training video production services come from specialist animation studios, corporate production houses and e-learning agencies. Motion The Agency is a specialist studio, and we build modular animated learning content around your actual L&D needs, covering onboarding, compliance, health and safety, product knowledge, technical skills and cybersecurity awareness.
What separates us from traditional production houses is that we simplify complex B2B and SaaS material into visual stories, and we publish our prices. Production runs in modules, starting with a one-to-one consultation, then digital storyboarding, asset mapping, then iterative editing with your feedback.
You can see the work on your own material first, since a free sample comes back within 48 hours, with a 14-day money-back policy after that. Because a subscription bills monthly rather than per project, you can keep refreshing the library as policies change, which is usually where training content falls over.
