How to choose the right animated video production company
Four things to compare before signing a contract:
- Turnaround speed. Industry standard at traditional studios is 4 to 8 weeks. Shootsta delivers a first cut in 48 hours.
- Pricing model. Per-video freelancer or agency rates run $3,000 to $15,000. Subscription production brings unit cost down significantly for teams producing more than 5 videos a month.
- Portfolio depth. Ask to see work in your sector and at your scale. Three videos in a deck is not a portfolio.
- Global coverage. Single-city studios struggle with distributed teams across time zones. Look for offices in your primary regions.

Frequently asked questions
What is an animated video production company?
An animated video production company is a vendor that scripts, storyboards, illustrates, animates, and edits video content for businesses. Most produce 2D character animation, motion graphics, kinetic typography, whiteboard animation, and infographic videos. The best ones include scriptwriting support, brand kit integration, and revision rounds in their service. Shootsta is a global animated video production company with offices in Sydney, London, Singapore, and San Diego.
What is video animation for business?
Video animation for business is animated video content produced for commercial use rather than entertainment. The most common formats are explainer videos that break down a product or service, product feature overviews, internal comms animations for HR or policy rollouts, social media animations, and animated infographics. Most business animations run 30 to 90 seconds and are designed for distribution on a website, in sales decks, or across social channels.
Why do businesses use animation instead of live action?
Businesses use animation for three main reasons. First, animation explains abstract concepts (software, financial products, processes) better than live footage. Second, animation does not need a film crew, which makes it the right format for distributed teams or topics where filming is impractical. Third, animations age slower than live footage because there are no dated wardrobes or office settings, so the content keeps working for two to three years rather than six to nine months.
How do I choose the right animated video production company?
Look at four things: turnaround speed (industry standard is 4-8 weeks; Shootsta delivers a first cut in 48 hours), portfolio depth (ask to see work in your sector), pricing model (per-video freelancer rates run $2,000-$10,000; subscription models bring unit cost down significantly for teams producing more than 5 videos a month), and global coverage (single-city studios struggle with distributed teams across time zones).
How much does an animated video production company charge?
Traditional animated video production companies charge $3,000 to $15,000 per video depending on length, style, and complexity. Subscription-based production companies like Shootsta bring unit cost down significantly and let teams produce 5-50 animated videos a month at predictable monthly rates. Pricing depends on volume, animation style, and video length - get in touch for a custom quote.
How long does it take to produce an animated video with Shootsta?
You can receive a first cut of your animated video within 48 hours after submitting your brief. That compares to 4-8 weeks at most traditional animation studios. Faster turnaround options are also available depending on your plan.
