Want to get started on YouTube but terrified of being on camera yourself? Then this could be the perfect answer for you.

Animated whiteboard explainer videos are a great skill to learn if you are planning on creating a new YouTube channel, or want to incorporate some new techniques for an existing one.

* Please note, in Dec 2025, VideoScribe have two versions of their amazing software. One is a browser version, the other is now called "legacy". This course was created for the original (now called "Legacy"). If you wish to use the browser version, then the concepts are still the same but the technical instructions may vary. If there is enough demand I will create a browser version too - let me know :)

Here's some of the things you will learn:

How to create professional animated videos quickly and easily
Why people love animated whiteboard explainer videos
Example YouTube channels that use this technique
What makes a great animated whiteboard explainer video
How to structure your videos
How to master whiteboard video software even if you’ve no experience
How to choose your theme and style
How to effectively use images and text
How to add music and voiceovers
How to add motion and movement

This course was designed for:

Beginners with little to no experience in creating animated videos, but are willing to learn
Experienced Video Creators who want to develop a new technique to enhance their creative talents
Anyone who wants to improve their knowledge of animated whiteboard explainer videos in order to create content they are proud of

This course is packed full of interesting lessons that uncover all of the skills and techniques you need to go from a blank canvas to your very own animated explainer video.

There are many applications that you can use but for me the best is Videoscribe. Whilst this is a paid application, you can get a 7-day free trial, which allows you ample time to run through this class.

For me, Videoscribe is perfect for beginners. It is uncomplicated and effective, we just need to master the basics which is why this class will help you.

All you need to do is follow along, ask questions if you are stuck, and you will soon realise how simple it is and wish you had started earlier!

Are you ready to start creating your own videos? Great! Let's do this!
