An explainer video is a short, animated video that is used to explain a product, service, or concept in a simple and engaging way.

Music plays an important role in explainer videos as it can set the tone, create emotions, and enhance the overall viewing experience.

The right background music can help to convey the intended message and keep the audience engaged.

Hi, I’m Mik, one of TunePocket music composers. I went though our catalog of royalty free music and picked 12 music tracks that will work great in most explainer videos. Watch the video below or jump straight to the playlist.

what’s the best length for explainer videos?

Explainer videos are designed to educate and inform the viewer, and to persuade them to take a specific action, such as purchasing a product or signing up for a service.

It’s best to aim for a video length that keeps the audience engaged, yet is long enough to provide all the necessary information.

For simple topics, we recommend a 30-second video. For more complex subjects, a longer video of 1-2 minutes may be needed to fully explain the details.
