Introduction:
In finance, trust is built on knowledge. Investors who understand concepts like diversification, risk, or compound interest are more confident and more loyal. Video has become the preferred medium to explain these topics—viewers retain 95% of a message via video versus 10% via text. No surprise then that 89% of businesses use video as a core marketing tool and that marketers call it their most effective format.
But producing high-quality financial explainer videos consistently is hard. Traditional production means scripting, filming, editing, and compliance review—a cycle that can take weeks. For teams aiming to release daily market explainers or weekly how-to guides, the old model is too slow and too costly.
This is where Akool’s Image-to-Video tool changes the game. With it, marketers can transform static visuals into animated financial literacy videos in minutes—no cameras or editing suites required.
Benefits: Why Financial Marketers Choose Akool
From Static to Dynamic Explainers
Akool animates charts, infographics, or portraits into motion videos. A static graph can transform into a talking “presenter,” making concepts like interest rates or inflation easier to digest.
Speed and Scalability
Videos render in seconds instead of weeks, so marketing teams can match the pace of the markets. Daily “tip of the day” videos or timely explainers after economic news become realistic deliverables.
Consistent Branding and Compliance
Using the same digital presenter across all content ensures consistent branding. Since narration is script-based, firms can lock in compliance-approved language—no off-script risks. Updates are as simple as editing text and regenerating the video.
Multilingual Reach
Akool supports 150+ languages with lip-sync accuracy. Marketers can release the same explainer in English, Spanish, and Mandarin in hours, not weeks, expanding financial education globally.
Stronger Engagement
Financial topics can be dry, but animated, human-like videos boost retention and trust. Investors are far more likely to watch and share a short, clear explainer than read dense PDFs.
Real-World Example: Fintech Platform Engages Users with Daily Investment Advice
A fictionalized fintech inspired by Akool case studies, wanted to improve customer literacy by sharing daily 30-second videos. Each clip would cover a topic like “What is a P/E ratio?” or “How diversification reduces risk.”
Before, this plan was impossible. Filming daily meant hiring staff, coordinating shoots, and weeks of editing. With Akool, FintechX uploaded a photo of a digital “advisor” character to serve as its presenter. For each video, the marketing team wrote a short script, added a friendly AI voice, and used Image-to-Video to animate the advisor delivering the lesson.
They quickly scaled up production, creating multilingual versions for global users. Engagement soared: play-through rates and shares doubled, and investors praised the approachable style. Best of all, FintechX’s team could keep pace without burning out—AI handled production while they focused on messaging.
Step-by-Step: How to Create Financial Videos
1. Plan Your Script
Pick a financial topic—definitions, product how-tos, or market updates. Write a short, clear, compliance-approved script.
2. Select an Image
Upload a photo of a person, character, or branded mascot to serve as your digital presenter. Charts or slides can work too.
3. Animate with Akool
Log in, upload your image, and add a simple text prompt describing how it should move (e.g., “advisor smiles and gestures to chart”).
4. Add Audio
Paste your script into Akool’s text-to-speech feature. Choose from hundreds of voices or clone your own. Add subtitles and background music if desired.
5. Generate and Review
Click “Generate.” In seconds, you’ll have a preview of your animated explainer. Adjust prompts or audio until it’s perfect.
6. Localize and Scale
Translate scripts and regenerate multilingual versions. Reuse the same image presenter to ensure brand consistency.
7. Publish and Track
Export in HD or 4K and share across apps, websites, and newsletters. Track engagement and iterate topics based on feedback.
