Make an explainer video yourself or have it made?

Videos are currently on everyone's lips, because they offer enormous potential in online marketing. It is important to follow this trend and expand your marketing strategy in this field.

Although the tools mentioned offers many features and templates, it is not an all-round solution. In fact, detailed animations are difficult to impossible to implement. This is also the reason why most videos today, unfortunately, look similar.

Diversity is missing.

That's where Videobakers comes in. We create professional videos. What tools do we use for that? We rely on Adobe tools like Adobe after effects, adobe animate, adobe illustrator. Because besides the pure graphical realization, your video needs a convincing story, gripping background music and a professional voice over.

Markus Hauken

Sehr empfehlenswert, gute Qualität, faire und passende Preisgestaltung und vor allem sehr angenehmen Zusammenarbeit und Kommunikation. Kundenorientiert und flexibel, bedingt durch eine Umfirmierung mussten wir ein gerade fertig gestelltes Video nochmals anpassen, dies wurde sehr schnell und zu einem minimalen Aufpreis schnell und unkompliziert gelöst.
