Requirements
You can’t walk the great wall of China, without taking your first step.
This course will show you how to make your first SVG image, that you can use in your whiteboard animation software (videoscribe, Doodle, Explaindio, etc) in 5 minutes.
You will have then taken your very first step.
From that 1st image, you will be introduced to new tools, that will allow you to generate different affects.
By the end of the course (12 videos), you will be able to assemble and repurpose complex scenes confidently and quickly.
My name is Dr David Kyte and I have been making whiteboard videos for 10 years. I use the techniques shared in this course with every whiteboard video I make.
I am sharing these skills, as they are simple, easy to learn, and gives you the freedom to tweak your current image library, making the PERFECT image for your next video shot.
