Read on for Squideo’s advice on how to find the right pick for you. Let’s dive in.

Freelancers

Freelancers are, well, freelance. They’re lone operatives and as such that means they won’t always be able to offer you a full range of whitelabel services that an animation agency could, like scriptwriting and in-house voiceovers. It is a diverse group to pick from however; there are currently over two million freelancers in the UK. 

The majority of freelancers, 1.77 million to be precise, freelance as their main occupation. You might find someone with limited experience, looking to build a portfolio, or a seasoned professional who decided to strike it out alone. 

Freelancers can be found through advertising sites like Fiverr and Freelancer, small business notices, social media and online. The process of working with a freelancer may be more informal than working with an animation agency; the freelancer may not offer a contract and might request upfront payment. Always discuss these details before you agree to start working together. 

Animation Agencies

Animation agencies like Squideo have an entire team at their disposal which means they provide a range of customer services and whitelabel extras to ensure you receive a video that meets your every requirement. With an animation agency, you can expect:

01. Dedicated Account Manager

An Account Manager is on hand to support you every step of the way, discussing your ideas, filling in the gaps and implementing your feedback through each stage of production.

02. Music and Voiceover

With an array of extras included such as a voiceover, licensed music and subtitles, your video can be understood anywhere by anyone. And unlike other video production companies or freelancers, Squideo doesn’t charge for these basic inclusions. 

03. Scriptwriting Service

A professional Copywriter can turn even the most complex process into an interesting and engaging message for your video script. Squideo offers unlimited script revisions, taking another burden off your team.

04. Digital Marketing Team

An in-house marketing team can provide you with full-service digital marketing skills to drive traffic to your website and generate video views.

05. Global Experience
