Employee training is critical for business success, yet Human Resources (HR) and Learning and Development (L&D) leaders face persistent hurdles—disengaged learners, forgotten lessons, and soaring costs. At Sharp Eye Animation, we’ve helped brands like Sephora, Apple, Applied Materials, & more tackle these issues with custom animated video.
Here are the top 5 employee training challenges and how our animated training videos solve them:
1. Low Retention Rates
Research shows 70% of training content is forgotten within 24 hours (The Learning Guild). Without reinforcement, employees lose skills fast, wasting L&D budgets. Video animation boosts retention—studies reveal people remember 95% of video messages vs. 10% of text (PopVideo, 2016). Our short, engaging animations simplify complex topics, making them stick.
2. Disengaged Learners
A staggering 90% of employees want fun, engaging training, but slide decks and long lectures fall flat (Shortlister, 2022). Boredom kills motivation. Our animated videos use on-brand and custom visuals, characters, and storytelling to hook learners.

3. High Training Costs
Companies spend $1,286 USD per employee annually on corporate training (Training Magazine), yet ineffective methods drain budgets without impact. Video animation cuts costs long-term. Our subscription model delivers unlimited custom videos—scalable and budget-friendly for teams of any size.
4. Scaling Across Large Teams
Mid-to-large enterprises struggle to train 100+ employees consistently, especially with remote or hybrid workforces. Our video training series scale effortlessly—delivered in 2-3 weeks, tailored to your needs. From onboarding to compliance, animation ensures uniform learning, anywhere. In fact many of our employee training videos are a core part of corporate training programs, and have been viewed thousands of times since publishing.
5. Complex Topics Confusion
Dense subjects like compliance or software adoption overwhelm employees, slowing adoption and performance. Animation simplifies the complex. Our work with RepairShopr—driving a 300% revenue boost—shows how clear, animated explainers turn confusion into clear understanding that drive results.
Why Video Animation Wins for Employee Training
Animated training videos don’t just address challenges—they transform L&D. With a 42% revenue increase tied to video use (Shift study) and Gen Z favoring visual learning (McKinsey, 2016), the future is clear. Our award-winning approach—no templates, all custom—delivers results fast.
