The technology is affordable, it's the hired staff that is expensive - magazines have to support time spent with ad revenue and the numbers don't work out well


If you lower the bar and just show infographics (which you already produce for print) and possibly lightly animate them and some reading of the articles, video cost can be in the hundreds of dollars all-in per video.

I suspect a toolchain could be created to essentially automate the process of making these videos, using stock photos/clips, an animation library, etc.
