Whiteboard animation, drawn on as you watch
VideoScribe makes the hand-drawn explainer where a marker fills the frame while a voice talks over it. That format is narrow and VideoScribe is the tool that does it properly, with a library of images and the timing controls to match a script. Download limits are per plan, so the cheap tier is five finished videos a month.
Our note
If you want whiteboard animation, this is the tool that does it, and the five-download cap on the cheap plan is the only thing to check against how you work. Doodly and its imitators cover the same ground; VideoScribe has the better asset library.
Animated explainers without an animator
Vyond builds character animation from a script, with lip sync and gestures handled for you, which is why it ended up as the default for training video. A creator selling a course gets a house style without hiring anybody. It is priced for companies, and the cheapest seat costs more per year than most video tools cost in three.
