What is Whiteboard Animation?
Whiteboard Animation is a minimal and creative style of animation. It is designed to look like the graphics are being drawn on a whiteboard in real-time. Because of the hand-drawn effects, whiteboard animations evoke a certain nostalgia and warmth, which helps you connect with your audience.
This style is particularly suited to communicating complex information through easy to understand animations. This makes it ideal for whiteboard explainer video, tutorials, and how-to videos. Whiteboard videos are also popular for educational videos, marketing videos, and social media.
As a versatile form of video marketing, these videos can be used in business presentations to illustrate a new service or case study. They can be used to show how a business process works. Whiteboard animations can also be used to elevate emails, landing pages, and infographics.
As a whiteboard video production company, we produce and promote high-quality videos that are tailor-made for your marketing goals and target audience.
What is Whiteboard Animation?
Today’s online space is saturated with information. To get a message across, companies need content that will cut through the clutter and connect with their target audience. Whiteboard videos have great potential to do so.
The best whiteboard animation companies create videos with clear narratives, attractive visuals, and high-quality productions. Add in music and voice-overs, and videos become memorable and compelling. They can keep an audience interested, impart the necessary information, and build a relationship with them.
Whiteboard explainer videos also break down complicated topics much better than plain text or static infographics. This helps position you as a credible source of information and a thought leader in the industry.
Moreover, whiteboard videos are easier, quicker, and more economical to produce, making them perfect for budget restraints or time-crunched campaigns. They also improve on-page SEO and search engines page rankings by encouraging visitors to stay on your website longer.

Writing the Script
The first step is writing an engaging script, whether we are making a whiteboard explainer video or a social media video. This forms the backbone of the video and is fundamental to its success. Our team of writers use their marketing expertise and storytelling prowess to weave an impactful narrative that includes all your key messages.
Style Frames Preparation
Style Frames are static images that give you an idea into what the finished animation will look like. Preparing style frames helps us create a logical and organic flow of information. We also ensure that no important details and facts are left out at this stage.
Storyboard Development
A storyboard positions the style frames into scene segments and serves as a visual representation of the whiteboard video. This is when we brainstorm the right style, tone, typography, and colour palette for the videos. We also work to incorporate icons, logos, and visual elements associated with your brand.
Voice Over Recording
The voice-over narration is an essential component in whiteboard animation. Even though the graphics are minimal, they can be difficult to follow without a formatted voice-over. The voice-over grounds the viewer in the narration and offers something to lean on as they watch the video, greatly improving their understanding of the concepts presented.
Animation
While creating the animations, we combine the script, voice-over, and brand-specific style frames into one cohesive whiteboard video. We plan and align animation timings with the other components. We combine traditional animation, whiteboard animation, and digital animation as needed to create the desired results.
Sound & Music
Sound and music can be a powerful element in whiteboard video production. It helps create a stronger memory of the video and aids audiences in recollecting information better. Our team picks the perfect audio effects and music to go with the animations to give your target audience a complete experience.
Post Production & Edits
Once the animations are created, we put it together along with any required music or sound effects. Our editors work to create a concise and compelling video that tells your story in the best possible way. We ensure that the video encourages understanding and elicits the intended response.
Delivery
The last step of the process is compiling everything into a finished product. Depending on where you plan on using the videos, we deliver them in the necessary formats. Whiteboard video animations can be used on websites, social media, emails, business presentations, and many other marketing content forms.
