2022 brings with it a new set of trends in the world of marketing videos. Working everyday with hundreds of companies, large and small, we are sharing the insights we’ve gained over the last few months in this blog. Below are 5 ways you can get the best results for your animation and motion design videos.
1. Combining 2D Animation and 3D Animation
This year, 2D animation and 3D animation styles are likely to be frequently combined in animated explainer videos and marketing videos.
Many designers and animators are choosing to combine the two styles to create a new, engaging and immersive visual effect. The most popular manifestation of this trend is the incorporation of 3D characters in a 2D environment.
This technique can be used not just in big-budget video ads, but also in promo videos, explainer videos, demo videos and small budget digital ads.
2. Deconstructed Characters
The recent trends in animation show that animated characters don’t have to be realistic to be relatable and engaging.
Schematic and cubical characters are rapidly becoming 2D animation trends in 2022.
3. Industry Focused Animation Companies
Animation is now used widely for explainer videos, promotional videos, social media videos and demo videos, across diverse industries, both B2B and B2C. But finding the right animation studio to help create your marketing videos is key. Marketers from different industries will see the best results if they create their explainer videos through the best animation companies in their specific domain. That’s why today, explainer video companies are specializing and becoming laser focused on particular industries and animation styles.
In 2022 you will see more specialized animated explainer video companies in Bangalore, Pune and Mumbai.
4. Restricted Colour Palette
Designing web animation videos using a restricted colour palette is a trend that’s emerged to help convey emotions. Colour is an excellent mood setter and this 2022 trend can actually simplify the video creation process for you.
Animated videos with a limited colour spectrum are both simple and sophisticated at the same time. Graphics created with a restricted, soft colour palette can also easily play into the “comfortable colours” web design trend. Despite a limited colour palette, a masterfully created animated video can be eye catching. Explainer video makers in 2022 should take advantage of this animation trend.
5. Kinetic Typography
Kinetic typography is an animation where words are used as images, mimicking concepts and working like visuals. This trend is all about being creative with fonts and turning reading into an exciting interactive experience. Here’s the kicker: businesses that used video elements with kinetic typography experienced a significant improvement in customer attraction and retention.
How does that work? Well, the beauty of kinetic typography lies more on the psychological side than the actual visual experience. When these “moving words” are accompanied by just the right background music and an emotionally touching script, the re-enforcement created by highlighting essential points takes the persuasiveness factor to the next level.
