What Does AI Do in Animated Video Marketing?

AI doesn’t mean robots making videos on their own. It’s about smart tools that allow humans to do things faster and more accurately. And it’s not just scripting that AI is helping with when it comes to animation.

Animation marketing teams are writing the script, generating voice-overs, editing the animation, and even tracking how well the video performs. Creamy Animation Explainers has begun incorporating these tools into early workflows, cutting down on deliverables and time spent on production.

Here’s how AI helps in each step of animated video marketing:

1. Helps with Script Writing

AI tools like ChatGPT and other content assistants can help draft video scripts. You just give a few points or tell what your product or service is about, and the tool will give you a basic structure or even a full script. Of course, it still needs your touch, but it saves a lot of time.

2. Voiceover Generation

There are many tools now that offer realistic AI voiceovers. You don’t always need to hire a voice actor. These tools can give you natural-sounding voices in different languages, tones, and styles. It’s very useful when you need to make multiple versions of the same video or do quick updates.

3. Video Personalization

Personalized videos are known to increase conversion. With AI, you can create custom versions of the same video for different customer groups. You can change the name, logo, voice, or even product details without having to edit everything manually.

4. Animation Style Suggestions

Some AI tools also help you choose the best animation style based on your content. For example, if your topic is technical, the tool might suggest using motion graphics. If it’s a fun app, it may recommend cartoon animation.

5. Editing and Post-Production

AI can help in background music selection, auto-syncing voice to animation, and fixing small errors in frame transitions or pacing. Tools like Adobe Sensei and Runway ML are already doing this in video editing software.

6. Audience Targeting

Once your video is ready, AI tools can help figure out which audience to show the video to. Based on past campaigns, user behavior, and engagement data, it can guide you to post the video at the right time, on the right platform, for better reach.

7. Performance Tracking

After publishing your animated video, AI tools track views, engagement, drop-off points, and help you understand what’s working and what’s not. Based on this data, you can tweak your content or script for the next video.
