Having an educated team isn’t just a best practice; it’s a requirement. The more educated the team, the healthier the bottom line. The challenge lies in keeping teams informed and wanting to learn more about their roles in the industry. With dry content centered around policies and procedures, how do you create a story that engages a learner and makes an impact? By using animated videos that are relatable and fun!

In this session, you will be introduced to animated videos with relatable, current, and fun storylines. You will see how one team turned a learning challenge into an eLearning style guide and design template for use internally and externally. You will learn how they worked with internal and external SMEs to create storyboards and scripts that focused on critical factors affecting their industry: compliance, quality, and efficiency.

  • How to sketchnote and storyboard using Paper by FiftyThree
  • How to capture the importance of using good audio techniques
  • The basics of using GoAnimate
  • How to create fun and engaging learning videos, even with dry and boring content
