And finally…More testimonials.
When I first came across examples of video scribing on YouTube, I wasn’t sure I had found the vehicle I’d been looking for to re-energise our annual strategy communications. But the more examples I found, the more convinced I became that this could be a powerful new visual medium with which to tell the story of our 5-year strategic plan. This led me to Ydraw, who have now created two video scribe clips for us for internal strategy communications.
Both clips were received extremely positively by employees, with a resultant improvement in engagement that I could not have anticipated when I started out on this journey. I found the overall process overwhelmingly positive, despite ambitious deadlines and geographical distance. Curtis delivered everything we asked, guided us throughout, and interpreted our story effectively through pictures. Our clips are now going global throughout our business, adding views each day. A resounding success.
Ydraw has been an exceptional company to work with! The video they made for me has impressed everyone that’s seen it. I’ve already referred 5 colleagues, and I haven’t even released it yet. Curtis made the process super easy and fun. What impressed me the most is how they took my script, helped me polish it, then made it come to life. Curtis understood what images needed to be in place to emphasize the emotional affects of the video, and draw the audience’s attention to the action. Not to mention the ease in which we chose a talented voice-over! (Much better than all the times I would have tried it myself!) Thanks so much to the Ydraw team and Curtis’s talent!
There are times when referrals don’t come easy to me…but in this case, Ydraw proved to be an excellent partner in the development of Parentlink’s video. They were responsive and flexible, they came in on budget and on time, and were very professional throughout the entire process. I did speak to three other firms before landing on Ydraw and none were as agile and customer-focused. Many had drawn out timelines that could not be adjusted to fit our schedule. Others were just way to expensive. Curtis and his team wrote the script with very little input from us and we were pleasantly surprised at how spot they were and willing to adjust as we worked our way through message development. We absolutely loved their work! I highly recommend them.
Awesome. Thanks for working with us. Truly your company has been a walk in the park to work with.
I’ll forward all that along and get back to you shortly!
Thanks,
I’ll forward all that along and get back to you shortly!
Thanks,
The FPC client showed the video at their sales conference not too long ago and it got a great reaction from senior level folks…everyone was very impressed!
Thanks so much for holding our hands through the whole process:)
It was fantastic working with Y-draw on our project. They delivered everything on time and without delay. The animations exceeded our expectations and we were extremely happy with their work.
I was very fortunate to work directly with our Ydraw Project Manager, Annie Miller. Our video was to be an important promotional asset for our launch, so we were very exacting. In fact, this was the second video production company we worked with, after the first video fell short of expectations. From managing the scripting and animation processes, to helping us select just the right artist, voice-over talent and background sound effects, Annie was exceptional professional and get things done, even under difficult circumstances. Annie is also very easy to work with, unassuming, able to absorb and process our complex requests, and basically just a very nice person. I highly recommend Annie Miller and yDraw.
Thanks so much Annie, it was a pleasure working with you guys. You were fast, smart, and a lot of fun! I will definitely recommend you if I get the chance, and maybe I’ll be back soon for another video 🙂
Best,
FYI- My presentation was PERFECT! I think I used 3 Y-draw videos throughout the whole thing. They LOVED it and I closed the deal. THANKS!
Sincerely,
Your team did an outstanding job of taking our vision and turning it into an unforgettable message.
Thank you, Ydraw!
You found the artist that we wanted and were very flexible in the editing and art to get it just like we needed it. We were not the easiest clients but you worked with us and our client is very happy with the end product.
We’ll definitely be back for more videos. You guys have a great process, talented folks, fast turn around and a beautiful end product. Thanks! We love it and are very proud to show it off.
I can’t tell you how grateful we are to have found you and YDraw. I suspect you’ll be hearing from others at AIR for future work – our corporate communications team were VERY impressed, especially when I told them about the incredibly professional process we went through.
And – here it is! We launched the product Tuesday! www.patientfamilyengagement.org
Again, our deepest thanks. You all are treasures.
Very enthusiastic and extremely creative help was offered to us to make the process move smoothly. They did an excellent job with good questions and interpreting what we said into good copy.
Ydraw was very easy to work with and the final result was better then we expected. the people we worked with were professional and made the process quick and easy!
I just wanted to follow up with you concerning the Pilot Pay Shortage video that your team created. In the less than one week that it has been available on our YouTube Channel, we’ve received nearly 50,000 views. That’s in addition to a separate upload on Facebook that has received many thousands of additional views. Even though those numbers may not be that impressive compared to a lot of videos that are on YouTube, for us it is our most viewed video ever… by far. The message and imagery are really resonating with our pilots, and your team did a great job of making that happen.
I just wanted to say thank you for making the process so easy on us and for developing such a top notch product in such a short timeframe. I was told that payment had gone out to you, but please let me know if that is not the case. Take care and I hope we work with you again in the future.
We really enjoyed working with everyone at Ydraw and were impressed by their professionalism. We had a great experience with Ydraw and highly recommend them to others looking for a fun way to do a training for your company. The video has been well received with most saying they loved it.
It has been a pleasure to work with yDraw. From initial creative design through to final art & editing, the staff at yDraw has been professional, responsive and provided the out-of-the-box creative thinking we needed for our project. Not only are we extremely happy with our final product, but yDraw has been able to accommodate our aggressive timeline.
Enjoyed working with Ydraw, very thorough and approachable. Staff is willing to go the extra mile for you. I like that!
I couldn’t have been happier with the final product — and even above that, the personal care and attention my account received – notably from Annie, Jace and Bryan throughout each step. I could go on and on about how professional, courteous and easy to work with they all were but then it might sound like they’re writing this review themselves. Trust me when I say that its service and a quality product combination like this combined that means I will be coming back to Ydraw and recommending it to others that ask.
Wonderful. Thanks so much for your patience.
Wonderful. You guys are so pleasant to work with. I’m going to recommend you to everyone I know. Let me know if you need a testimonial.
You may not have noticed, but I am quite the perfectionist ☺
We LOVE it!! Thank you so much Annie, and please pass my thanks and praise to your team. We couldn’t be more pleased with it, and the changes are perfect.
I am so excited!! Yay!!
I am so excited!! Yay!!
Ydraw has been so awesome to work with; I’ve never worked with a more upbeat, willing to help, team of people. Everyone we worked with along the way made the process easy and enjoyable, and the talent your team has, is amazing!
I’m in love! ☺ The animation video your team created for us is amazing. Please send our huge kudos to Kelley. She rocked the house on this one! Great tone, intonation, ad-libbing to be more conversational – truly, an awesome job. Great script. Amazing graphics. Color and sound accentuations at the right place and time. Certainly a video we’ll be proud to show our clients to represent our capabilities. Thanks again. 🙂
Hand on heart the experience of working with you has been sensational. Working with Ydraw has been the most straightforward and enjoyable experience I’ve had when it comes to buying creative services. We were nervous the timezone would be an issue (we’re in the UK). We barely noticed. In fact Annie Miller might be the best client facing person I’ve dealt with. When we took AGES to decide on a voice artist, extending the project significantly, she took every change of heart in her stride and was incredibly professional.
ANNIE! This is FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so excited – I truly, truly love it. I also just showed this to our sr. mgr who also ABSOLUTELY LOVES IT!!!!!
I am SOOOO IN LOVE with this… thank you, THANK YOU! It was a HUGE hit with our boss; you have no idea! You guys knocked it out of the park! I’d be thrilled to write a testimony for you and your team. Just let me know how and when.
Thanks. Well, I guess we’ll see if this video encourages people to find out if the app is all I hope it will be. It’s coming along nicely right now. If I launched it today, it would still be different from everything else out there. However, this next phase will make people decide it’s not worth competing with us over it ☺ That’s the goal. That’s why I love your videos. They are unlike most advertisements out there and that really goes along with what we are creating.
Someone with severe ADHD wrote me about the Star Wars video you just created and said “I have severe ADHD which doesn’t allow me to focus for very long. But your video captured my attention the entire time and gave me a lot of details that I was able to understand. That’s powerful!”
That’s a great quote and testimony to what you do!
Yay!!! Send us the final invoice because this one is approved and done!!!!!!
I have to say that Adam seems to try very hard to hide a smile every time he talks to me about this. He is extremely happy with it and just told me he “loves it.” I couldn’t be happier and I am very grateful that Ydraw decided to take this on and give us a great rate to see it happen. Adam showed our “client” the other day, before these last little tweaks, and he loved it as well.
I am very excited to have taken our whiteboard videos to the next level. Nice work from your entire team.

October 15, 2014
| First Name | Barbara L Murray |
| Company Name | BBA Aviation |
| What did you like about the scripting process? | The project kickoff was very good: the pre-launch questionnaire was a good thought starter; Annie the Project Manager is an excellent communicator. That said, the scripting phase was the most difficult because we struggled to articulate what we really wanted to say. I had expected that your team would facilitate that thought process more than try to write down what we were saying. I felt I had to do more than one major rewrite of the script. I did like that the scripter had a framework for dividing our script into 3-4 art scenes. |
| Any Ideas on How can we improve the Scripting Process? | Invest in the skill of facilitating the creation of the message. Also, I kept getting cautioned by the scripter that I was ‘going over’ my agreed words/minutes. It was more important for me to get the content right than to get it in under the 2 minute time limit. |
| What did you like about the art and editing process? | It was a big surprise to me that I had to come up with the ideas for the images. When I said: let’s have a sales person, the question back to me was ‘what do you think a sales person looks like?’ When I said: let’s show data flowing between an airplane and our customerservice agent, the question to me was, ‘what does data look like to you?’ The toughest question to me was: what does an inverted pyramid look like? I thought, if I knew all this, I would draw it myself. That said, the final images were adorable and really nailed our Vision. I loved how well Annie communicated with me to ensure we got it right and quickly when necessary. |
| How can we improve the art and editing process? | Facilitate the ideation of images rather than toss it back to me to come up with the ideas for images. I am not an artist. I was so frozen by some of the questions I avoided the project for a while and focused on other work that I COULD do. This caused project delay. |
| Overall how can Ydraw improve? | I want to mention the narration phase: we decided to use our own internal narrator, obviously not a pro. Annie gave us great tips for producing our best effort, and once we sent over our file, your team did a wonderful job of cleaning it up. And we LOVED the sound effects you added. |
| Testimonial | Your team did an outstanding job of taking our vision and turning it into an unforgettable message. Thank You Ydraw. |
