Animation video production company announces 3 new tips on social media marketing for video.
Through research on some top video marketing articles and blogs, Ydraw has put together this guide for marketing to social media networks. The one main point that the animation video production company Ydraw found of most importance in every social media video marketing campaign is having personality, and gearing your social media towards mutual benefit to viewers and oneself. Let your viewers know who you are. That way they will be familiar with who you are and the quality of your service. If they can connect with your company on a more personal level they will become much more loyal customers.
Tip #1: It is important to keep video posts on social media platforms interesting, engaging, and to evaluate how they impact users daily, seeing what is more interesting to them and adjusting accordingly. There are various tools that can be used to help in analyzing social media, with one of the main tools that analyzes across different platforms being Klout, which helps in strengthening connections between websites like Facebook and Google+.
Tip #2: Another good tip for businesses is to make sure that one does not mix business and personal relationships. Businesses should have a separate page for a personal social media account and a company social media account, not mixing the two. Business contacts are not commonly interested in seeing pictures from a family party, and friends on social networks are probably not interested in seeing in depth animation video production company business statistics.
Tip #3: From various video marketing experts, the majority vote tells users that it is more important to build a following of a brand by sharing significant video content, as opposed to buying “likes.” Build a following by creating great content that people want to share. Appeal to viewers on a personal level, whether that’s by making them laugh or by inspiring them with your video, create something that will strike a chord with them and cause them to share it.

In this video however, it is a lead pencil that is made alive by the scientist who then proceeds to encouraging it to draw.

Animation Video Production – a new addition to Ydraw’s company specialties.
The process to complete a short 1 min 30 second video is much like the video scribing process, where creativity, technical skill, and detailed drawings play big roles in completing a successful animated video.
The animation production process is much like that of Ydraw’s video scribing and whiteboard animation process. Introducing Ydraw’s animation based video and going trough the steps below will give viewers a better understanding on how animated videos are created, and what clients can do to help along the processes for a great video. Though it tends to be a long process, Ydraw is a company that meets the needs of all clientele, working to provide the best services, in the least amount of time, for the best price.
The Development Phase
Determine the Parameters: The length, style (whether cartoon based or realistic), number of characters, if there is dialogue, how many scene changes to have, and what the target resolution is.
After the parameters are determined, there are five simple steps to completing the first phase:
- Story Development: Plan out the Plot, Conflict, and Characters to be used in your story
- Scripting and Outlining: Physically write out the complete animation production story, or outline it on paper
- Designing Characters: Draw out how each character should look
- Environment Design: Draw out how the environments and props should look
- Storyboarding: Draw out the main scenes for later use in references and planning animation
The Pre-Production Phase
Digital Element Creation: record and process the animation production vocals first. Then it is time to turn the storyboards into a video with the vocals. After this, model all the characters, environments, and objects, and then apply all the materials and textures to the modeling. Now it is time to rig your characters, test the animations, then decide where the render files are going to save and how much space is needed for them.
The Shot Phase
Assembling Each Shot: Pre-plan camera movements for minimal animation time, use rough animated solid objects to time everything correctly, and preview everything for precise timing of each shot. Characters then should be precisely animated and fixed to perfection, so everything works smoothly and correctly. This is also the time where lighting and render tests should be done, to get more work out of the way. Once the animation production is completely rendered and everything is spot on, do the final rendering for the final images.
The Post-Production Phase
The Final Touches: replace the animation with the renders, add layers of background and sound effects, have a composer write a score or find royalty-free music to accompany the animation production, combine the music an sounds to balance the video, and add titles, credits, and combined picture with sound.
The End
Now That the 4 Phases are finished, the animation video is ready to be released. Ydraw’s animation production is precise, detailed, and worked to perfection. Who would have thought it took so many processes to make a simple clip of an animation video?
