Concepting & Creating animated explainer videos.

When one learns to use video editing software, it can feel very overwhelming to get familiarized with massive number of tools and terms. But, the editing is only the tip of the iceberg when creating animated content. It's always best to start with a simple script for either voiceover or text overlays. From there, it's incredibly important to have an overview storyboard, in order to plan out your scenes and get buy-in from all decision-makers. Making changes to a video after its done is terribly inefficient, so the more upfront effort that can be made, before editing, the better off you'll be.

I learned to write effective voiceover, capture it via audio equipment, create graphics and characters, layout storyboarded scenes and timelines, import all content into Adobe After Effects, animate and add effects, control timing and transitions, export to useable formats, and store online for multiple uses. All in my free time while still performing my regular duties, saving my company time and many thousands of dollars in outsourced projects.
