The Madness Behind Whiteboard Videos: The Best Way to Deliver Your Message…Guaranteed

Many people wonder how Ydraw creates a whiteboard video. If you have no clue what a whiteboard video is you better check out the video above to see what we are talking about. The process and steps that Ydraw takes to make one of these videos amazing and we are going to walk you through the steps. Without giving away our secrets of course. In this video we included a bit of animation, funny business, humor and color. Most of our videos are just black and white, but we like color. Enjoy and read on…

Collaboration

First, the whiteboard animation video process starts with a simple idea. In this case, we decided  to create a video with no voice narration, something different, something completely mad. Brainstorming begins, and ideas are thrown around until a creative story is planned out that will fit the goals of each company perfectly while still sustaining entertainment.

Scripting

Once the story line is set, and a basic understanding of where the video is going to go, it is time to script. Scripting consists of dividing the story up into different segments so that a single piece of artwork can be developed into each scene plan. Then the text for the voice narration is planned out, but because there is no narration in this video, we skipped this step.

Storyboarding

When the scripting and scenes are plotted out and approved, they are then sent off to the artist for drawing. This process of drawing is where the artist creates the black and white previews of the artwork that will be featured in the video. Some of them come back with color, but in general they will come back as black and white images. We always get approvals on each step of the whiteboard video process.  We would hate for our clients to not be satisifed with the ending result.  Once we get an approval from the client we move onto recording.

Recording

It is now time for the magic to begin.  The artist is recorded from start to finish while they draw all the scenes for the final product. This is a very precise process, where the artist has to make sure that everything is perfect. If he forgets to hit record on the camera, he starts all over.  Which has happened more than a couple of times..:) There are some whiteboard video companies that use computer programs with a fake hand, but not us.  What you see is the real deal. During recording we may add color and other enhancements depending on the project and the budget of the client.

Voiceover and Music

In most cases, after the video is finished recording, the voiceover is then recorded. This video is much different than any of the other ones, and has no voiceover, so we skipped this step, and just let the soothing music and the animations tell the story.

Editing

Once all of the recording is finished and the voiceover and music are chosen and approved, all the video clips, voiceover clips, and music tracks are taken to Ydraw’s talented editors who then speed up the drawing sequences, making the video scribing video come to life.

Final Product

The overall process of making a whiteboard animation video with Ydraw takes between 21-30 days, depending on the time spent collaborating and approving scripting, storyboarding, voiceovers, music, etc. With on average 6-7 people working on one project at a time, Ydraw would love to work with you and create an amazing video scribing video for your company.  Have a great day.

Whiteboard videos have become a growing trend and is booming for many reasons. The past forms of getting a message across are cold and distant. Viewers seem ultimately to not care about what is being presented to them even if it pertains to their interests. Whiteboard videos can be engaging where text information leaves them unmotivated to carry on with the reading if every line is not stuffed to the top with dynamic and attractive word use, which can be difficult with some not so interesting topics to say the least.

 

Audio, such as radio advertisement, can be an improvement on this, essentially doing the reading for the listener but even those results can go downhill quickly. Different listeners can react differently to the tone of voice used by the voice actor or actress. This can cause major distractions that are going to decrease their focus on your message as it is only being conveyed with a single medium unlike whiteboard video.

However, with whiteboard videos, viewers are pulled in from the very moment you wish to convey our messages. The constant movement in their viewing window reels them in wanting more and more interaction. Video Scribing entices the viewer to remained focus as the video animation elements build and play upon each different element increasing the amount of the message that remains on their mind after the viewing process is over.

 

Even more beneficial, whiteboard video uses visual learning to display facts which has been proven to be the most common form of learning. This means that video scribing can present otherwise hard to convey details and facts about your product or service that would in other forms be too difficult to teach your viewers when utilizing only text or audio formats of message conveying.

Video Scribing Examples

So, why does video scribing and whiteboard animation work? Well there are plenty of reasons, but we will just go over a few:

  • The artwork developed on screen is extremely compelling to viewers because it is unusual, something that is not usually seen on a commercial, and so it keeps the awe and attention of audiences longer than other mediums of video
  • Animation is relaxing to viewers, because to many it reminds us of childhood, and is less strenuous for an audience to learn from compared to other videos, which might not be as entertaining
  • Video scribing is good for memory retention in helping the mind process information with visuals, and better remember branding and pictures so that they will be easily accessed and stored in the long term memory
This Les Olson Commercial is a great example of a 30 second clip of a converting, compelling, and memorable video scribing video that is created by none other than Ydraw.
