Production Process
Production Process
Animation is among the most resource-intensive options for video production. A video might be completely animated, but more often, animations are used selectively within a larger video to communicate concepts with a strong visual component.
Scripting for animation will be more involved. Significant planning needs to go into visual design, timing and accompanying narration. You may need to work more closely with Educational Technologists and Graphic Designers on these portions of your script. But in turn, when animation is used appropriately, it can offer significant advantages to your students by taking full advantage of video's strengths as a visual medium.

In addition to the usual scripting process, you will be asked to contribute to a storyboard, which is a more detailed visual planning document detailing the visual design of an animation, its timing, and flow. For complex animations, we recommend a meeting with the Educational Technologist and Graphic Designer to discuss the best way to represent and communicate your material.

An Animator or Graphic Designer will handle the hands-on production of animated content. For this reason, planning and scripting are vital; these are how you will communicate to the person implementing the visual design, who may not be a subject matter expert. As such, any important details to student comprehension should be specified. You will be asked for feedback and clarification throughout the animation process.

Once animations are completed, they will require final approval before being integrated into full videos and included in a complete course site.
