An animated pitch video for your startup

Accelerator applications and investor emails often ask for a short video. An animated pitch tells the story of the problem and your solution clearly, even before you have polished product footage.

Pitch video structure

Problem (who hurts, and how much). Solution (what you built, in one line). Proof (users, revenue, a pilot). Market. Team. Ask. Two minutes is plenty. Each part becomes a scene or two.

Paste your pitch as a script to keep your exact words, which matters when investors compare the video with your deck.

  • Under 2 minutes
  • Your words, your numbers
  • Add a founder clip at the end in any editor

Animation plus a human face

Investors back people. Use animation for the story, then end with 15 seconds of you on camera. The mix is memorable and honest.

Questions and answers

How long should a startup pitch video be?

Usually 1 to 3 minutes. Check each accelerator's limit; many ask for one or two minutes.

Should a pitch video be animated?

Animation is great for explaining the problem and product. Include a short real founder clip too, since investors want to see the team.

Can I use my pitch deck?

Yes. Paste the script you speak over your deck and Motion2D animates it.

Your next video starts with one sentence.

Type a topic. Motion2D researches it, writes it, draws it and voices it.
