How to Make a Whiteboard Animation Video Tip Guide
‘How to make a whiteboard animation video‘ tips are essential for any business that is attempting to make their own unique and detailed whiteboard animation video for internet marketing or sale purposes. Ydraw provides new helpful tips to promote a better whiteboard video.
Although this will not get the best results when looking for increased traffic and conversion rates, this technique will provide a way to get an extremely cheap alternative to Ydraw’s whiteboard animation videos.
Essential tools include a dry erase board, a camera, a computer, a desk, some dry erase markers, a chair, and a light. With these tools the artist can now set up their workstation. Place the light on the table, along with the dry erase board, and rig the camera to the light so that it can be right above the dry erase board.
How to Make a Whiteboard Animation Filming Guide
With the camera hooked up to the computer, all one needs now is for the artist to start drawing with the dry erase markers. If the artist makes a mistake, it is easy to rewind the video filming, erase the drawing sequences and start again. Decide how many scenes are wanted, the desired length, and work to intricately detail every scene, taking a break and video taping the whole scene without an artist’s hand in it for a period of time.
How to Make a Whiteboard Animation Editing Guide
To edit the whiteboard animation video, use editing software that is found on an existing computer. One can download cheap editing software programs on the internet finding them through searches on Google, Yahoo, Bing, or other related search engines. Take tutorials on the software and if there are questions about one of the tools, it is easy to look up the answer through forums found by searching on Google. The artist needs to find out how to speed up their sequences through their video editing software, so that the whole whiteboard animation video comes to life in detail and precision.

Animated explainer videos are essential for improving landing pages
Ydraw believes this, and wants to share with others the benefits of using animated explainer videos in landing pages.
Animated explainer videos improve landing pages in many areas, and here are four that are defined in detail.
Expanding Technology
Because technology is continually expanding and businesses are always looking for ways to increase traffic and improve their conversion rates, learning more about the current trends in advertising and promotion are very important to businesses. Just because a website was fabulously popular a year ago doesn’t necessarily mean that it is still making conversions at the same high rate. Many people are finding that using an animated explainer video is an excellent way to improve conversion rates.
Interest Level
One reason for this is the interest level that videos have over simply having text to read. In today’s world, interest must be grabbed quickly and is easily lost. Being able to grab and hold attention is the key to getting conversions. Animated Explainer Videos move quickly and constantly as the scribing follows along with the voice to keep a person’s attention much longer than just text or an audio clip. The clever pictures that are drawn and the injection of appropriate text keep the viewer interested and guessing what will come next. This keeps the attention focused, which is what most businesses want to happen on their landing pages.
Increased Conversion Rate
Statistics seem to uphold the notion that video keeps attention longer than just text does, as companies have reported increased conversion rates when using video on landing pages. When the overall marketing strategy has a landing page video to focus on, then email, social media, PPC advertising, SEO, and all promotions can drive prospective customers to the landing page where the video provokes a higher conversion rate.
Focal Point
Whether the animated explainer video is designed to instruct for the purpose of training, describes the company and what it offers, explains a service provided by the company, or demonstrates a product, its fast-moving animation keeps the customer’s attention riveted. The combination of visual and audio input provides more information to the customer who is then more willing to make a purchase or at least take the next step to learn more.
