The message you want to convey, the corresponding storyline and the resulting animation are the heart of every Upscale Film.
To achieve this, the time- and resource-intensive production of an explainer video involves several steps, including careful planning, scriptwriting, storyboarding, design, voiceover recording, animation, sound design, review, and distribution. Each step requires collaboration between several experts (and sometime with you) to create a cohesive and engaging final product.
That's why a high-quality, fully made-in-Germany (!) explainer video can't be quite as cheap when you factor in all the salaries of the experts you don't have to pay yourself.
For you and a better buyer experience, however, we have broken down this complex internal process and structure into just four stages that require a collaboration with YOU:
Kickoff + Script: At production start, we check if we got all the necessary information. If anything is still unclear, a consultant will contact you in writing or, if you wish, in a online meeting. A professional scriptwriter will create the script for your explainer video based on the provided information. All we need from you is your valuable feedback.
Storyboard + Voiceover: Once you are 100% satisfied with the script, our voice actor will record the audio track and a designer will create a storyboard for internal use. For this step, too, we need your feedback.
Animation: Once you are 100% satisfied with the voiceover and the storyline, our animator will start working on the animated images (animation). One last time, we still need feedback from you.
Delivery: At the end, you will receive the final and reviewed animated explainer video. A quality assurance manager and success manager will also monitor and double-check the entire process and perform the final inspection.
Each of these stages, can have multiple feedback rounds with you (= revisions or change requests).
