What is GoAnimate?

Make professional animated videos Learning Curve easy. Low budget. Simple tools = ''do-it-yourself''.

High score results without headaches

Start immediately

You just need an internet connection. No configuration is required. Make Yourself Without big staff or budget. Just you and our easy-to-use tools.

Powerful tools at the click of the mouse. Add a character, swap a background, or start a scene just by dragging and dropping! Lip-Sync is Automatic! Give a character a voice and they sync with their lips – automatically! Give a voice track to the background and it becomes voice narration off.

Industries and professions

Really engage your audience. Choose from editable scenes that represent hundreds of industries, occupations, activities and concepts – with more added all the time. Create your own Recreate character, your clients, your administration or anyone else using our simple character creator. Be warned - this is really fun!

Why create an animated video yourself? GoAnimate lets you tell your story aloud! You are not passively capturing events with a camera. You are making emphatic points, clearly and without restrictions.

Represent Diversity

Characters can be customized in hundreds of different shades of color. Represent diversity effectively, without having to cast actors of a specific race or background.

Laws of Nature

Animation, with its ability to slide scales and bend the laws of nature, provides the flexibility to truly bring the benefits of the product to life.

GIVE CONTEXT TO YOUR IDEAS

Imagine starting at a closeup of a tree and then zooming in to show the entire forest and then exploding into the sky for the BIG top view. The animated video makes it simple to put everything into perspective. EXPLORE MORE DIFFERENT With animated video, you're not limited to video images. Change the backgrounds, move characters, add props. Test different ways to communicate your message. CHANGING THOUGHTS IN VISUALS The animation is good for demonstrating the steps of a process. It is even better to demonstrate the thinking behind a process, adapting from the literal to the concept with ease. TURNS THE TONE RIGHT Abstraction away from portraying real individuals allows animated video to reach a wider range of emotional tones. This can help address difficult issues frankly and effectively without getting the public to get their defenses.

A flexible workflow ''SCRIPTING AND STORYBOARDING'' Simply start – just visualize your audience. At the end of the video, what do you want them to think or feel or do? That's your goal. Now, break that goal in small steps. This results in your content sketch – a list of "mini-objectives" that lead the audience from point A to point B. Then comes the creative part – reaching visual elements to take these content points. Sketch these if you can – then write your current script to combine these visuals. VOICE RECORDING Add your voice acting (dialogue) or voice (narration) is an instant. You can import audio files, record directly on the platform or even professional crowd actors – and get a very quick turnaround! If you assign a dialog box to a character, it will sync with the lips automatically.

VISUAL EXCITEMENT

You may think it's hard to get the characters and props to move. Right. We have models and beginners so you get started quickly. Customizing things is as easy as dragging and dropping. The menus are all WYSIWYG. Our libraries have literally thousands of characters, backgrounds and props. We also make it easy to import your own elements, such as the company logo, the image of a building, or the screenshot. AUDIO DRAWINGS After "directing" the visual part of your video, it's time to polish the audio. Just find the right music track in our libraries – or import your own. Drop small sound effects here and there to really bring your moments to life. This is also just drag and drop. Adjusting the time is as easy as sliding an icon left or right.

PUBLICATION

Once your video is complete, you can publish it to GoAnimate and embed it on your website. You can also export it as an HD quality video to keep your computer or put on YouTube and other sharing sites. We also offer numerous one-click sharing options on major social networks and online marketing platforms.
