What whiteboard animation is

Whiteboard animation is a video style in which illustrations are drawn on a white background as the viewer watches, usually by a visible hand, synchronised to a voiceover. Because the picture is still being built while the narrator talks, the format suits longer explanations that would lose an audience as a slide deck.

  • Classic hand-drawn and modern digital whiteboard styles
  • Professional scriptwriting and voiceover included
  • Multi-language versions and subtitles from one master
  • Files delivered ready to drop into your LMS or intranet
  • Series work with a shared style guide across every episode
Why it works

What you get with whiteboard animation

πŸ–ŠοΈ

Built for step-by-step

Processes, procedures and rules explained in the order a learner needs them, not the order the manual happens to use.

🌍

Any language

One master production, then voiceover and subtitle versions for every market your teams work in.

πŸ“š

Series-friendly

Modular episodes with a shared style guide, so module twelve still looks like module one.

Where whiteboard animation works best

Compliance and safety

Rules people have to follow, explained once, clearly, and the same way for everyone.

Onboarding and process

New systems and internal procedures, drawn out in the order they actually happen.

Education and how-to

Longer teaching content where the drawing keeps pace with the explanation.

Complex or sensitive topics

Subjects that need care and clarity rather than fast cuts and stock footage.

Whiteboard or 2D: which should you choose?

Whiteboard suits longer, teaching-led content where the viewer is there to learn. 2D animation suits shorter, marketing-led content where you need brand styling, characters and a faster pace. If the video is going on a landing page, start with 2D. If it is going in a training module, start here. We will say so honestly either way.

FAQ

Common questions

What is whiteboard animation?
Whiteboard animation is a video style in which illustrations are drawn on a white background as the viewer watches, usually by a visible hand, synchronised to a voiceover. It is most often used for training, education and step-by-step explanation.
Whiteboard or 2D animation: which should I choose?
Whiteboard suits longer teaching content where the viewer is there to learn. 2D suits shorter marketing content where brand styling and pace matter more. Tell us where the video will be used and we will recommend one.
How long should a whiteboard video be?
Most training modules work best at three to five minutes. Longer material is better split into a series of shorter episodes than compressed into one long video.
Can you match our brand colours?
Yes. Classic whiteboard is black on white, but we regularly work brand colours, logos and accent styling into the drawing.
Do you provide subtitles and other languages?
Yes. Subtitles, transcripts and additional voiceover languages are all produced from the same master animation.
Will it work in our LMS?
We deliver standard video files plus captions and transcripts, which drop into any LMS or intranet that accepts video.
Can you work from our existing training material?
Yes. Send us your slides, manuals or standard operating procedures and we will turn them into a script first, for your approval, before anything is drawn.
