Something nobody tells you about making a whiteboard animation video: Most of it gets decided before you ever press Create. What question does it answer? How long, and which way up? Which look fits? Below is the whole path from idea to upload, the way we'd do it, with real videos along the way.

From idea to upload
-
Start with what your viewer would type into search
"Why is the sky blue?" will beat "Light and color" pretty much every time, because a question gives the video one clear job (and hey, you've got your title too).
-
Lock the length and shape before writing
Rough guide: Shorts, 30 to 60 seconds, Portrait. Lessons, 2 to 4 minutes in Landscape. Stories and deep dives, 5 to 10. Skip this step and watch your script wander off somewhere.
-
Decide how much you want to write
Just a topic is fine, we'll write the narration. Got notes? Your points stay, in your order. A finished script gets read word for word, as long as it fits the length.
-
Pick the look
Whiteboard when you want calm teaching. Color Board for fast feeds. Got characters and a plot? That's Animate.
-
Watch it yourself first
Names, numbers, facts. Check them. Something off? Fix the text and make it again, it's quick.
-
Post it with the extras
The SRT goes up as subtitles, the thumbnail's ready, and you can paste the title and hashtags straight in. Want a Shorts version too? Hit Try again and switch to Portrait.
What you end up with
Four mistakes we see in first videos
Questions about making one
Neither, promise. Open it in a browser on whatever phone or laptop you've got, and you'll find the drawings already baked into the video when it comes back.
Couple of minutes after you hit Create, typically. Long ones take longer. Close the tab if you want, it'll wait in your library.
Yep, free videos every day, up to 60 seconds each, and you don't need a card.
Something people ask you all the time, at one minute. Short enough that you can judge it fast, specific enough that it's actually useful to someone.
