New Explainer Video Workshop: Spring 2024

Get updates via the Common Craft Newsletter

Do you have a policy, product, or service you need to explain? It's easier than you think, and you already have the tools to do it: Powerpoint or Keynote.

I'm hosting a ​new workshop​ starting April 17th. We'll meet on Wednesday afternoons (Pacific time).

I will be your guide through every step of creating an animated video that clearly explains your idea. This workshop, our third, has a limit of five participants so I can be a personal resource for you.

The workshop includes:

  • Explanation skills and tips
  • Responsible and productive use of AI in the creative process
  • Writing your script
  • Developing your storyboard and visuals
  • Animating each scene
  • Producing your video

I am happy to respond to emails if you have questions or need direction between sessions.

"The workshop puts you on the spot to deliver your explanation. I found that it's the practical aspect of actually doing it that matters. The workshop was excellent!"
