How do I create my whiteboard drawings videos?<\/h3>\n

I run a Youtube channel<\/a> where I post whiteboard drawings videos to explain sustainability concepts. I have been asked how I make them several times over the last few years year so here is a tutorial to make one yourself. Whiteboard animation videos have become very popular over the past ten years, in part thanks to famous ones such as RSA Animates<\/a> or The Story of Stuff<\/a>. They can be very effective to explain something complex or abstract with drawings when words are not enough. In 2013, I decided to use whiteboard drawings videos to explain on sustainability concepts<\/a> on Youtube<\/a> in an engaging way. Not knowing anything about making whiteboard drawings videos at the time, I figured out myself a way to do them. This is the process I am explaining here.<\/p>\n

There are 4 \u00a0steps to my process<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Writing the script;<\/li>\n
  2. Preparing\u00a0all the drawings to illustrate the script;<\/li>\n
  3. Recording the voice-over;<\/li>\n
  4. Recording the drawings in a\u00a0movie format and putting the video together.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
