Explainer Video Bern

No. What matters is not where your agency sits, but whether it understands your topic and delivers reliably. Videodesign works from Lucerne for all of Switzerland; we have no office in Bern, and you don't need one.

We gladly hold the kick-off workshop at your place in Bern, at ours in Lucerne, or online. After that everything runs digitally — two feedback rounds per phase (concept, design, and animation with sound), the same dedicated project manager from first conversation to final sign-off. That is how we regularly work for Bern clients such as Berner Kantonalbank, Gebäudeversicherung Bern, Kanton Bern and TCS — since 2012, over 4,500 videos, for public administrations and SMEs alike.

The same as anywhere — only the starting point is flexible.

1. Kick-off workshop, at your place in Bern, at ours in Lucerne, or online: topic, messages, audience and a schedule with all milestones.
2. Concept: storyline and script, plus voice artist demos in every language you need — you choose the voice.
3. Design and storyboard: proposals for your illustration style, matched to your CI/CD.
4. Animation and voiceover: trained voice artists and the right sound put the icing on the cake.
5. Handover: your video, ready for every channel.

Two feedback rounds per phase are included, everything runs digitally — no trips to Lucerne. Standard: four to six weeks. The full process is on our explainer video production page.

The same as anywhere in Switzerland — Videodesign prices by style, not by location: whiteboard CHF 7'500, flat design CHF 9'500, isometric CHF 12'500, each for 90 seconds in one voiced language, excl. VAT. Included: concept and script, storytelling and storyboard, design and animation to your CI/CD, dedicated project management with two feedback rounds per phase. A kick-off at your place in Bern changes nothing: the price in the quote is the price on the invoice.

Every extra 15 seconds costs CHF 950; further languages come as subtitles from CHF 480 or a studio voiceover from CHF 2'000. No small print, no billing by the hour. PDF quote within 24 hours — free and without obligation. All packages: our explainer video pricing page.

Four examples from our video studio. For the Organization of the Federal Assembly we explain how parliament works in the Federal Palace in Bern — clearly, for the public. For the Inselspital Bern, colourful animated figures and on-screen text explain the admission process to waiting patients — no narrator, no voiceover.

"Smart Claims" shows communication at eye level: a light-touch case study of insurance claims after damage, as 2D cartoon animation with voiceover. The Debit Mastercard video is an explainer video from Bern, for Bernese — voiced in Swiss German. Parliament, hospital, bank, insurance: from a silent waiting-room video to dialect voiceover.

Watch all four right on this page. We also work regularly for Berner Kantonalbank, Gebäudeversicherung Bern, SBB, Kanton Bern and TCS. More from over 4,500 projects: our explainer video examples.

No, both terms mean the same thing: a short, usually animated video that makes a complex topic understandable in one to two minutes. "Explainer film" is the more traditional label, "explainer video" the more common one today — in Bern, too, people search for either and mean the same product. That is why this page carries both: more clarity with your explainer film means more clarity with your explainer video. The price is the same too — the same fixed-price packages apply.

More important than the word is the craft: sharp script, well-thought-out storyboard, custom illustrations in your corporate identity, clean animation, professional voiceover. Videodesign has delivered that since 2012, across more than 4,500 projects. Everything about the complete package is on our explainer video page — or contact us for a free consultation.

Yes. German, French and Italian are our standard languages, and English too; further languages on request. One professionally voiced language is included in the fixed price.

Every additional one comes as a subtitled version from CHF 480 or a studio voiceover from CHF 2'000 — professional voice artists record in the studio, and we adjust the animation to the new track so timing and emphasis land. You choose the voices: as early as the concept phase you receive voice artist demos in every language you need. For communication across the canton or nationally that means one concept, several language versions, with volume discounts.

Dialect is possible too — for a Bern product video project we produced the voiceover in Swiss German. Plan language versions early and the adaptation gets faster and cheaper. Prices are on our pricing page.

For anyone offering something that needs explaining — and Bern has plenty of those: more than half a million people work in the canton, and SMEs and startups in particular face considerable competitive pressure. An explainer video pays off if you want to show the added value of your product, if your service is specific or needs explaining, if you want to create understanding and reach customers — or win more qualified enquiries. Our Bern projects show the range: parliament and the Federal Assembly, the Inselspital with its admission process, banking and insurance products.

You bring the topic and your expertise, we translate it into a video your audience understands on first viewing — hand-illustrated, in your corporate identity, all from one team. Thanks to the fixed price you know the cost before you start. Since 2012, over 4,500 projects, for corporations, public administrations and SMEs.

Especially so. Bern is the federal capital, and public-sector communication is one of our most frequent jobs. An explainer video reaches citizens directly: it makes a procedure, a service or a proposal understandable in about 90 seconds — in the audience's language, not official jargon. The best example stands in the middle of Bern: for the Organization of the Federal Assembly we explain how parliament works in the Federal Palace; the Canton of Bern is a client too.

Multilingualism is part of it: German, French and Italian, further languages on request, with volume discounts for several language versions. And the sign-off process suits public bodies: with two feedback rounds per phase, specialist units and communications teams can weigh in without derailing the schedule. Thanks to the fixed price the budget is accountable from the start — the price in the quote is the price on the invoice.

Four to six weeks as standard, from the kick-off workshop to handover — even with your team in Bern, because the collaboration does not depend on location. Before that, things move fast: reply within 12 hours, fixed-price PDF quote within 24 hours. In the kick-off — at your place in Bern, at ours in Lucerne, or online — we set a binding schedule with all milestones, aligned with your launch, campaign or proposal. Your feedback rounds set the pace: quick sign-offs put you closer to four weeks; many internal stakeholders, plan for six.

Tip: one bundled response per round, and clarify early who signs off. Deadline burning? That is what Videodesign's Express line is for: AI-assisted and curated, with the same standard of clarity. Tell us your date in the first conversation — we plan backwards and tell you honestly whether it holds.

Yes. Videodesign provides video production and film production for companies and institutions in Bern, from concept to delivery. Depending on the goal, we create an animated explainer video, a product video, a recruiting video or a live-action image film. We hold the kick-off at your place in Bern, at ours in Lucerne, or online.

For a shoot, our film crew brings image, lighting and sound equipment to your location; animation, editing, colour grading, sound design and voiceover are handled by our production team. One dedicated contact guides you through every step. In the free consultation we settle which format shows your topic most clearly.
