Here are the 8 tips, I'll go over in this video:
00:00 - INTRO
Before we get started, I'm telling you about my 3 years of experience, with more than 200 videos under the belt.
00:18 - KEEP THE PEN ALIVE
In the first tip, I'll show you how you can make your animation video more engaging by keeping the pen alive at all times.
01:00 - IMITATE A REAL WHITEBOARD
Then I'll show you can take the best from real hand-drawn whiteboard videos and use in tools like Vyond and Videoscribe.
02:12 - DON'T IMPORT PROPS
Next up, I'll show you some do's and dont's when you want to import your own illustrations and pictures into your video.
02:38 - KEEP THE VOICE OVER GOING
This tip is huge! Your video's voice-over is the backbone of your whiteboard animations. The speak dictates what the hand draws. Therefore, you want to keep the voice-over going.
03:03 - SAVE TIME BY STICKING TO ESSENTIALS
After that, I'll give you my best advice on what to leave out of your video. If you are short on time, you'll like these tips on leaving out sound-effects, exit effects, scene transitions and camera movement.
03:52 - USE BETTER MUSIC
To be honest, the music libraries in most animation tools like Vyond, Animker and Videoscribe are not the best. To raise the quality of your video, you want to look for music on e.g. RUclips and Wistia instead.
04:20 - MIX STYLES GENTLY
Towards the end, I'll share my view on how to mix styles the right way. Whiteboard drawings and full-color animations can work well together. But you need to consider the colors and effects you use.
04:54 - MATCH ANIMATIONS AND VOICE OVER 1-1
Finally, I'll show you how to match animations and voice over. This is the golden rule I use in all my courses back at RuedRiis.com. And it works beautifully!
All in all, you'll have a list of tips that will help you create better whiteboard animations that get more views, longer watch-time and happy subscribers. Enjoy!

Thanks helped me
You're welcome!
Made my first custom made whiteboard animation with your tips using illustrator and after effects. To imitate real whiteboard I kept my strokes size consistent and just used two widths throughout the video (It was easier too). For transition, I found that doing a erase type animation with a very thick stroke works great. Looking forward for more such videos.
Btw I would love it if you can take a look at it and let me know how is it and if I can improve in some way. You can recognize the video from the whiteboard style thumbnail.
I think it looks awesome - really well done! One thing you can work on is strengthening of the connection between 1) voice-over and 2) animations. Sometimes, it's hard to see the immediate relation between the two - as a viewer of your video.
Keep up the good work!

@@RuedRiisCom Thanks for the feedback, really appreciate it. I think I know the problem, I did the illustrations on the go without storyboarding, that should've helped a lot.
I'm a new subscriber of you 💗
Happy to have you! 🎉
You said not to animate objects. but at the end of this very video, an animation representing you was waving.
You got me 🤗
Thanks for advice.
Np :)
@@RuedRiisCom can you advice for free white board animation software with interfaces and option like doodly. Currently li I am using Benime but it has some duration time problems and export issues so. Help me out!!!
I am still using VideoScribe!
Fair enough - I need to give it another go in 2023 and update the review :)
hey, is it possible to insert small videos into videoscribe? or are only images possible?
Sir I know it's a silly question, but from where I can get these svg icons?
Thank you for this video and your tips, it looks great too. The whole whiteboard animation process is starting to seem much easier now!
Can you tell me what font type did you use for the "MY BEST TIPS" text in the initial scene? (I'll be creating my first test videos.)
By the way, both VideoScribe and Doodly now allow you to import images and props with the added benefit of allowing you to create draw paths for the imported stuff -- making them look exactly as the native imagery.
I think the font was called something with "hand". It's one of the default in Vyond, so you'll find it easily.
Yes, I hear that but it doesn't seem that interesting to me.. I work fast and use what the tools have already - rarely important anything other than logos, which I let remain as they are. How do you use it?
@@RuedRiisCom Thanks for your reply and info.
I think I am going to design some elements (characters and props) myself and then import them into the whiteboard tool I'll be using and creating the necessary draw paths to make it look like they're native to the tool. The thing is that I don't seem to find all the elements I need in the tool (or maybe I'm not looking hard enough). :-) Well, these are only my plans. I've been doing some other research first before actually taking the plunge and start doing it.
Keep up the good work!
Very informative! What whiteboard application you recommend or you use?
Thanks!
Vyond :)
@@RuedRiisCom what about videoscribe?
awesome
Thanks! I'm gonna do a micro-survey with you then, and ask why you don't subscribe to my channel? 🤗
I struggle to understand why everyone loves my videos, but so few subscribe 😁
@@RuedRiisCom subscribed, thought i was..cool all ya had to do was point that out..😆
@@RuedRiisCom plus i get that quite a bit as well, they tell me they are annoyed with all the email notifications of Gene Gene posted another video.
I tell them to adjust settings , they must think by subscibing i automatically drain money from their account ..lol
great video! how many hours does it take to do it? And another question, don't you think that with videoscribe it becomes faster?
Took 1-2 days to do the full thing, I think. Hm, hard to say, I work faster in Vyond, but yeah VideoScribe is able to give you something pretty quickly, but then there's the question of whether that something is valuable and interesting enough to watch.
Can you make more videos related to whiteboard? I would really appreciate it.
Sure, I'll include it in the sheet with future video ideas :)
Nice video👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 🥰
which whiteboard animation do you use?
I'm a long-time Vyond user :) You can read more and get the software on RuedRiis.com if you're interested 🤗
There are a lot of complaints from creators on RUclips support website that their channels were denied monetization because they use whiteboard software. (Even if the content was original and they used human voiceovers). Apparently, it fails the "autogenerated" policy just because the software (VideoScribe.. etc) that automatically draws the images was used.
Yeah, that sounds wrong. Are you sure that's the reason why? Because then you should ban all tools that help you create animations - like the ones I use. If VideoScribe is the only tool being questioned, consider doing your whiteboard-videos with Vyond instead.
Rued
Hello,
First great work!
I have one question this type of video (video which is created be software "autogenerated") can be monetize?
Thanks. This isn't auto-generated-took 8-10 hours to do the animations, 1 hour to do the voice-over and 3-4 hours to research for and write the script. So it's original work, and that can be monetized on RUclips without a problem.
@@RuedRiisCom Yeah, i think the same way! But i read a lot of comments where people says the can't monetize their videos. So if i use doodly for example and i use my voice over i'll be able to monetize my channel?
@@tonimanolov980724 If you create original content and have 1000+ subscribers, you should be able to monetize your content, yes :)
I find it hard to do point number 8. Is there any tips to do so?
It takes practice indeed. My best tip is to think of visuals that support and elaborate on the voice-over. Less is more, and delete anything that confuses more than it helps. Timing-wise, it's a technical thing - you need the sync in order for it to be easily digestible.
Hey which Software do you use
Are you serious? 😁 I talk about Vyond in pretty much all my videos - that’s why I’m asking 🤗
What was the software used in this Video?
It’s called Vyond :)
How much time you need to make this long video?
Good question :) In total, I think I spent 6-8 hours on writing, narrating and animating for this video. Although it was spread out over 3 days, in between other tasks. If you are super efficient with your work, using what I call "The Explainer Pyramid" with writing, narrating and animating in that order, you could have a video done in 1-2 days.
@@RuedRiisCom please , give your SVG image pack for free ...😮
@@sdproduction786 It's made in Vyond.
Dear Rued is paying Doodly one time is better or the monthly and annualy way is better
They have a complex pricing setup-but I believe the one-time thing is close to worthless, as it will prompt you to upgrade all the time. I'd say an annual subscription is probably the best, if you've decided this is something you want to learn and use for real.
