Video Scribing - Jon Air
Introduction
cavemanThere was a dinosaur, a caveman and a whiteboard
This book will take you from the dank caves of prehistoric Europe to the New York Stock Exchange. We’ll go to Jurassic Park to learn how to make dinosaurs, and to the tenth birthday party of Facebook.
We’ll meet a type of video that helps us remember things – better and for longer. We’ll see how these videos are persuasive and three times more likely to be shared than a talking head. And we’ll find out how just one of these videos can make you $100,000.
What is the video type?
Some people call it video scribing. Others like to say whiteboard animation or fast drawing. Either way, its effect is magic.
Video scribing starts with a blank whiteboard – and lets you tell your story with bold images and absorbing voiceover. It’s a highly contemporary medium that has revolutionised communication for companies and individuals across the world.
But what makes a great scribe? And why is video scribing so powerful?
Drawing on expert knowledge, detailed research and a collective wealth of experience, this book provides a unique introduction to the history of scribing and what makes a great scribe video – one that will engage a viral audience and bring your message to life. We also look at how to make your scribes technically superb, eye-catching and memorable in Part 2 – a practical guide to whiteboard animation.
What’s your story?
Communicators throughout the ages – from Zhuangzi to Jesus, Aesop to Jay-Z – have known that stories are one of the best ways to convey a message.
Scribing is a perfect medium for stories and visual metaphors, as it will, quite literally, draw in your audience and capture their interest throughout.
You might be struggling to communicate your business’s unique selling point or USP. You might be dying to shout about an idea in a way that will actually make people sit up and listen. You might want to spark off a little more imagination in your class of teenagers.
Video scribing is the tool you’ve been waiting for. Let’s find out why.
