What Our Clients Say
Luke recently produced a variety of high quality animated explainer videos for us at Joiin and the support, service and advice we received throughout was really great. It was one of those projects where you're not really sure where to start, but Luke provided the guidance we needed that helped us get up and running with both scripts and ideas.
Luke delivered everything ahead of schedule, made you feel like nothing was too much trouble and brought everything in on budget. Highly recommend.

Who we work with
Pricing
Every project is unique
, but here’s a general guide:
A one-minute animated explainer film, including storyboard, AI voiceover, and music licensing, starts at £1,000.
Since each film is bespoke
, pricing depends on factors like style, length, and specific needs.
Some of the factors determining the price are:
Script
- We can collaborate on a script from scratch, or work with a script you’ve prepared. Either way, we’ll shape the visuals to deliver your message effectively.
Style
- Whether you envision detailed drawn scenes, minimalist infographics, or a mix of 2D and 3D elements, we’ll help choose what best aligns with your brand and goals.
Length
- While length affects cost, it’s not always the biggest factor. For instance, a complex, character-rich one-minute film may have similar costs to a simpler five-minute animated infographic.
Voiceover Options
Traditional voiceover artists typically charge between £150–£500 for shorter films (under 5 minutes).
AI voiceovers
are a high-quality, cost-effective alternative, allowing for last-minute tweaks without additional fees.
