Award-Winning Quality
The quality of our work speaks for itself
In Chicago, prices for professional animated videos start at 5,000 USD. The final budget depends on the animation style, level of illustration, script length, and the number of scenes involved. Our Emmy Award winning team delivers high-impact motion graphics with the same clarity and polish seen in our Explainer Video Production and Brand Video Production workflows, ensuring premium quality for Chicago brands.
Most Chicago companies see the strongest performance with 2D motion graphics, animated explainers, kinetic text, character-based storytelling, and product visualizations. These formats simplify complex ideas and create high-impact messaging. We tailor each animation to Chicago audiences using techniques refined across 3,900+ videos.
Most animated videos require 4 to 6 weeks, depending on design complexity, script length, and the number of animated elements. Our team manages concepting, design, storyboarding, animation, sound design, and revisions, using workflows mastered through our Product Video Production and Corporate Video Production branches.
Across Illinois, very few animation teams combine custom illustration, cinematic storytelling, and enterprise-level production like LocalEyes. With 7+ years creating motion content across the state and 3,900+ delivered videos, our animations include strategy, message design, and creative development at a level not commonly offered by local studios. We also integrate real customer insights from our Testimonial Video Production team to ensure messaging resonates.

Strong performance across platforms usually requires multiple formats, including 16:9 for websites and YouTube, 1:1 for feeds, and 9:16 vertical versions for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts. These adaptations ensure your animated content performs correctly on every channel. Chicago brands rely on this approach to maximize reach and consistency across their digital presence.
