Video and Animation in eLearning - Dynamic visual storytelling representing the power of multimedia in engaging learning experiences.


The visual medium in
all its glory

An on-the-go
solution for
the modern
workforce

Every video tells a story. Thereโ€™s something about the perfect blend of audio-visual elements that speaks volumes. And even without talking heads, a simple message communicated through impactful moving images and subtle transitions does the trick.

Weโ€™re here to help you figure out just how you can use this medium to tell your story. Want to quickly communicate product info? Or share a critical leadership message?

For an employee base thatโ€™s on the field, between meetings, or on commute, a dedicated training time and space can seem like a challenge. For exactly such situations and more, thereโ€™s video and animationโ€”a great opportunity to bring your companyโ€™s message to life through rich media and clever use of sound, all directly to your employeesโ€™ phones.

Beyond just show-and-tell

Live video footage with real people or rich media in the form of custom 2D or 3D illustrations-our talented team can help you bring your vision to life. We think of three factors to help produce carefully crafted videos:

The Outcome

Why would employees need to see the video? Is it to know about a new policy or learn how to use new software? We help you drill down to the single key message the video is trying to convey.

The Core

Once we have the focus in order, itโ€™s about taking a step back and seeing what content the video will featureโ€”people having conversations? Your businessโ€™ brand story? Or a software simulation? The contents help us move closer to visualizing the final outcome and recommend the best visual style for impact.

The Expression

Even with the core in place, the language the video speaks makes all the differenceโ€”and not just the language the words used, itโ€™s the story the visuals convey. We focus on the way the video is perceived in its entirety and make sure itโ€™s built for engagement. If you donโ€™t already have a script, our experienced team will help you write that story together, making sure your message is treated with care.

Over the years, weโ€™ve had the opportunity to work on live-action videos, 2D/3D animated videos, and interactive videos. As a medium, theyโ€™re versatile; they can be made vibrant and can be very effective if done right. From product training to compliance training to simply endorsing your training initiativesโ€”videos and animations are your reliable go-to.
