FAQs

Be clear about what you need. Describe the video or animation project and the specific effects or graphics you need. Mention the style, such as cartoonish or realistic, and any deadlines. This helps the freelancer understand your project and if they can do it.
List the specific tasks you need, like a 2-minute animation or a logo reveal. Include file format requirements, such as MP4 or MOV. Set a deadline for the draft and for the final video. This makes sure you and the freelancer know what to expect.
Share details about your brand and project purpose. Explain the video's goals and audience. Add any elements or graphics provided, such as logos or images. This helps the freelancer create a video that fits your needs.
Freelancers may use different versions of Adobe After Effects. Confirm they have or can access the version you need. Some effects may not work in older software, and this avoids compatibility issues.
Ask the freelancer to send regular updates or drafts. Set milestone deadlines for parts of the project, like storyboard completion or effects review. This keeps the project on track and allows for adjustments if needed.
Have a kickoff meeting. Discuss the project's goals, timelines, and expectations. Review examples of the videos you like and clarify the style you're aiming for. This sets a good starting point for the freelancer.
Share examples of work you admire or past projects you've done. If possible, provide a draft script or storyboard. Discuss quality benchmarks, like resolution (e.g., 1080p or 4K). This guides the freelancer in creating a video that meets your standards.
Agree on how and when you’ll give feedback. Decide on the number of review rounds. This helps the freelancer make changes without confusion and ensures you’re happy with the final product.
Yes, especially in the United States. Discuss any legal guidelines, like HIPAA if applicable. Clarify branding rules, such as font and color use. Clear communication prevents issues later.
Explain your long-term vision if you have multiple videos in mind. Discuss future possibilities and negotiate terms for ongoing collaboration. This prepares both you and the freelancer for potential future projects.
