Brief Description
- "The purpose of this video is to show you guys that if you wanted to, you could make a whiteboard animation in one day. So if you have a project in mind, go for it!"
- As the title says, how to create a whiteboard animation in a day, but using software
Name 2 elements from each video that you liked.
- Covered the topics of the tutorial upfront, noting the price of the software
- Spent quality time explaining the purpose of scripting and their scripting process
Name 2 elements from each video that you disliked.
- This was software specific for both audio recording and animation. For 5 minutes of the video they demonstrated the software.
