Hand drawn and sketch-style video editor

Hand drawn videos.
Show the idea taking shape.

Use a drawn visual language to support your narration. Our hand drawn video editing service combines agreed illustrations, text, cutouts and motion into sketch-style explainers, educational stories and commentary.

The approach

Hand drawn video editing that follows the explanation

A sketch-style edit can introduce an idea one element at a time: a label, an arrow, a character or a comparison. We plan those visual beats around the voiceover so viewers see the relationship being described. The drawing treatment, background, typography and pace are agreed from your reference before the full sequence is built.

Hand Drawn 01 is the sample in the homepage Hand Drawn section. Use it to show which parts of the treatment you want for your channel. For footage-led explanation, see YouTube explainer editing. For episode scenes and cartoon commentary, explore cartoon video editing.

A visual sequence for the narration

We break the explanation into visual beats and choose when each label, drawing or comparison should appear. The order of the edit follows your approved script.

Illustrations and motion to scope

The edit can use supplied drawings, character cutouts and agreed assets. Original illustration, frame-by-frame animation and detailed custom diagrams are discussed separately in the brief.

One coherent sketch treatment

Line appearance, textures, colors and typography stay consistent across scenes. Transitions and sound support the explanation and give each visual enough time to be understood.

Build the brief

Build a brief for a hand drawn explainer

Send the final script, narration and a reference with timestamps. Include any drawings, brand assets, characters or diagrams already available. Tell us whether new illustration is needed, what the finished runtime should be and when you need delivery.

We agree which assets are supplied, sourced or created, and how much animation each scene needs. For a recurring series, the same visual language can carry across episodes. Export formats and any editable-project handoff are included only as agreed in the quote.

A clear scope before we start

Plan the edit and the budget.

Growth editing starts at $60 per video up to 10 minutes at the volume rate. Signature After Effects editing is $400 for a 15-minute video. Footage review, research, animation and extra versions are agreed in the quote. Monthly partnerships are available for recurring uploads.

New clients can request a free 1-minute sample edit using their own footage and brief. Send the reference, runtime and deadline so we can confirm the right scope.

Before you start

Hand drawn explainers questions

Can you edit a hand drawn explainer video?

Yes. We can build a sketch-style visual sequence from your narration and agreed drawings, text, cutouts and source assets. Hand Drawn 01 is the reference sample for this service.

Is this the same as original character animation?

The service focuses on editing and supporting motion graphics. Original character design, illustration or frame-by-frame animation needs a separately agreed scope.

Can you use my existing illustrations?

Yes. Share the available files and explain which parts need to move. We can confirm the asset preparation and animation approach before quoting.

How much does hand drawn video editing cost?

The quote depends on runtime, the number of scenes, asset preparation and custom illustration or motion work. Send a script excerpt and visual reference so those requirements are clear.
