Design techniques in Vyond
With Vyond, powerful design techniques are made accessible even to those without traditional animation skills.
The use of camera movements in Vyond allows for the creation of depth and perspective in animations, enriching the visual experience. By zooming in and out, or panning across scenes, you can simulate cinematic techniques that enhance the narrative in explainer videos and animated films.
Design options with Contemporary, Business Friendly, Whiteboard and mixed media
Using Vyond's 'Contemporary' design style achieves a modern and appealing aesthetic that resonates with current visual language. It is characterized by minimalistic characters and soft-transition effects that convey an updated and stylish look. 'Business Friendly', on the other hand, is ideal for professional contexts, with clean lines and streamlined shapes that communicate with authority and clarity.
The 'whiteboard' style adds a hand-drawn feel.
Our favorite is to create 'Mixed Media' where we mix photos with animated characters, for example. Vyond allows you to integrate external graphics, photos, video and audio to create videos that look like something made with more expensive tools and have taken longer.
Customization of characters and scenes
Vyond offers great flexibility when it comes to personalizing characters and scenes.
- First, choose a character style that fits the purpose of your e-learning content.
- Customize the characters' appearance with a wide selection of clothing, hairstyles, and accessories.
- Select and configure scenes to match the educational goals and tone of the narrative.
- Add movement and animation to bring characters to life and enhance storytelling.
- Adjust color schemes to create the right atmosphere in the e-learning module.
Audio and Media Integration
Vyond, unlike many of its competitors (see our articles on animation tools), is really good at handling audio.
With intuitive audio management, users can compose soundtracks, dialogues and sound effects that precisely match the desired atmosphere and promote understanding of the content.
The ability to integrate external media, such as video clips and photographs, makes it easy to create engaging videos that support learning objectives in an engaging way.
This aspect is particularly valuable in the development of explainer videos and animated films, where sound helps create a sense of authenticity and immersion.
Good control over sound and speech
In Vyond, precise control of timing and volume is allowed, so that sound effects and speech play harmoniously with visual content.
Vyond's intuitive interface allows e-learning developers to integrate professionally recorded speech and sound effects directly into their projects, saving valuable time and keeping the production process smooth.
We really like Vyond's way of handling sound.
Working with External Photos and Videos
Vyond makes working with it easy. Whether it's a short video sequence or static images, Vyond facilitates a seamless interweaving of these elements with the animated characters, creating a dynamic and inviting learning environment.
Vyond's ability to integrate external content streamlines the production process. Developers can quickly import photos or videos, helping to create in-depth narratives in e-learning materials.
The user achieves a visual richness in their projects that would be difficult to replicate with pure animation alone.
Combining Vyond with E-Learning Tools
The integration of Vyond with other e-learning tools such as Articulate Storyline , Articulate Rise , or Adobe Captivate creates a synergy that increases learning potential.
By combining animated videos with interactive elements from, for example, Articulate products, we achieve a multimodal didactic approach that can improve student retention of information.
Vyond's versatility makes it easy to integrate with other e-learning tools, meaning instructors can create rich, interactive courses.
Video animations mixed with quizzes and simulations from other platforms contribute to a varied and engaging learning experience.
Tips for Explainer Videos
Simplicity is key when it comes to explainer videos.
With a clear and concise narrative, understanding improves and the core message appears more clearly to the viewer.
An effective explainer video offers the audience a quick and easily accessible insight into complex topics or processes.
One, two, many. How little does it take for the recipients to understand the message.
Keep the tone of your video light and engaging. This can make a big difference in viewer perception and understanding. Use a storytelling style that resonates with your audience and conveys the information in a way that is easy to digest.
Choose images and use an animation tool that supports your message.
By using relevant visual elements (such as icons, diagrams, and metaphors), the effectiveness of the message can be significantly strengthened.
These elements should complement the narrative, so that both parts work together to enhance the viewer's understanding.
The science behind explainer videos
Research is giving us fascinating insights into why animated explainer videos are so effective for learning. Our brains have evolved to be particularly attentive to visual narratives, and new cognitive research is helping us understand how to create more effective animated content.
The Visual Brain
When we watch a well-designed animated explanation, multiple brain systems cooperate. Wang et al.'s (2022) research shows that animated content activates 40% more of the brain's visual areas compared to static text. This supports the dual coding theory - that the brain processes information both visually and verbally, creating stronger connections and better memory.
Optimal Information Processing
The most interesting thing about tools like Vyond is their ability to present information in a way that respects the brain's natural learning processes. Govender et al.'s (2019) research shows that:
- Working memory works 33% more efficiently with well-designed animations
- The brain processes information 27% faster than with traditional text-based learning
- The areas of the brain that handle complex problem solving become significantly more active
Research-Based Design Principles
Science points to three key principles for effective animations:
- Duration and Timing
- Videos should be kept under 6 minutes to match the brain's natural attention cycle
- Vyond's timeline makes it possible to time information precisely - Gradual build-up
- New concepts are introduced at a pace that respects the brain's processing capacity
- Vyond's layer feature supports step-by-step understanding - Interaction between image and sound
- Synchronization of visual and auditory elements enhances learning
- Vyond's audio tools ensure precise timing of narration and animation
Documented Effect
Yang et al.'s (2021) comprehensive analysis documents that well-designed animated explanations:
- Increases memory of information by 68%
- Reduces learning time by 41%
- Improves engagement through activation of the brain's natural reward systems
Perspective
The research is clear: Animated explainer videos created with tools like Vyond are not only engaging—they work in concert with the brain’s natural learning systems. By implementing these research-based principles in our use of Vyond, we can create content that both looks professional and supports effective learning.
Vyond Go and AI - the animation tool of the future?
Vyond has launched Vyond Go, their online AI-powered video production software. The technology promises to make it even easier to create animated videos using artificial intelligence. But how does it work in practice?
Advantages of Vyond Go:
- Faster production through AI-assisted video creation
- Automatic generation of scenes based on script
- Suggestions for characters and background choices
Challenges and limitations:
- AI-generated suggestions often require significant manual customization
- Creative control may be more limited than in standard Vyond
- The technology is still under development
We believe Vyond Go has potential, but at this point the traditional Vyond tool is still preferable for professional users who want full creative control. However, we expect to see significant improvements in AI functionality over the coming years as the technology matures.
As with all AI technology, it is important to remember that the tool is a complement to - not a replacement for - human creativity and judgment. The optimal result is achieved by combining the efficiency of AI with the creative vision of humans.
Alternatives to Vyond
There are a number of alternatives to Vyond on the market that can be considered depending on specific needs and budgets. Available alternatives range from Adobe Animate to Moovly, each with their own unique feature sets.
However, GoAnimate, now known as Vyond, is still a leading player. The user interface and access to extensive resources make Vyond a preferred choice.
However, when quality and professionalism are key words, it pays to invest in a commercial product like Vyond, which combines ease of use with a wealth of features. This ensures not only a smooth production process, but also a result that conveys the message clearly and captivatingly.
Therefore, carefully consider which tool best supports your e-learning and animation needs before making a final decision.
