Key factors

What actually affects video production cost?

Not all videos are built the same, so the cost can change depending on what you need. To keep things transparent, here are a few key factors that usually affect pricing:

Video length

Longer videos take more time to script, design, animate, and polish.

Animation style

A simple 2D animation will usually cost less than something with complex motion, detailed scenes, or 3D elements.

Revision rounds

More feedback means more iterations, which can add to the overall production time.

Timeline

Need it quickly? A shorter turnaround may require more people working on the project at once, which can affect the cost.
As a guide, our pricing usually starts from around $3,480 for a standard 30-second video
and can go up to around $7,300 for a 150-second enhanced video.

How it works

How our calculator works

  1. Quiz-style answer cards with options A and B, one of them selected
    1
    Our cost calculator works a bit like an online quiz. You’ll go through a few simple questions, choose the options that best match the video you have in mind, and in some cases use a scale to show the level of complexity you are looking for.
  2. A form window with a slider and the Motion AI badge
    2
    In around 5 minutes, you’ll receive an email with a close estimate of what your video could cost. It is still a ballpark figure, but it gives you a pretty accurate starting point for planning your budget.
  3. A checklist of chosen options next to price placeholders and a team member avatar

    Then, within 24 hours, one of our team members will reach out to walk you through the estimate, explain what affects the pricing, and help you understand the best next step for your project.
