    There are many types of animation videos, even if you say it in one word. For example, whiteboard animation, illustration animation, pictogram animation, etc. Even if you don't have specialized knowledge or experience in animation production, you can create high-quality animation videos like a professional using Vyond. This time, we will explain how to use Vyond in an easy-to-understand manner.


    1. Basic Usage and Operation of Vyond

    Vyond is a tool that allows you to create animated videos simply by arranging materials such as pre-made templates and illustrations. With operations similar to creating PowerPoint slides, you can create animated videos. Additionally, by utilizing AI (Vyond GO), you can create animated videos with voiceovers in just a few seconds by inputting a few lines of text.

    ■ Basic Operations of Vyond

    The general process for creating animated videos using Vyond is as follows:

    ① Select a style
    Vyond offers three styles: Contemporary, Business Friendly, and Whiteboard Animation. Depending on the content and scenes of your video, you can choose one of these styles or combine them to create your video.



    ② Place Characters and Text
    Arrange materials such as characters. When selecting a scene such as an office, characters and desks are already set, so adjust them according to the content of the video.
    In addition, add materials such as characters and adjust the position, size, and color of the placed objects.
    Text is also placed as necessary for explanations within the video.

    ③ Add Movement
    Add movement to the placed character. Choose from various pre-made movements such as waving or bowing that match the content of the video.

    ④ Add Narration, BGM, and Sound Effects
    There is a text-to-speech function, so you can create character voices and explanatory narration. You can also select and place appropriate BGM and sound effects for the video's scenes and content.

    ■How to Use Vyond GO

    Vyond GO is an animation video creation tool that utilizes AI. With just a few steps and minutes, you can create an animated video by entering prompts and selecting the atmosphere, format, layout, and location from the optional menu.
    First, enter the prompts. Next, select the atmosphere, format, layout, and location from the optional menu. Finally, click the generate button and the video with audio will be created in just a few seconds. For more details, please see the blog below.

    3. With Vyond, you can create efficient e-learning materials depending on how you use it.

    We have explained the basic operations of Vyond so far, but from here on, we will introduce practical operations.
    As an example, we will introduce four functions of Vyond that are useful for creating efficient e-learning materials.

    ■Insert charts and graphs into animations

    By simply adding a small animation when conveying numbers, it becomes easier for learners to remember. You can select a pre-made template and insert charts and graphs.

    ■Create engaging videos for students with zoom and pan functionality

    If students continue to watch monotonous animations, they may become bored and have difficulty focusing on the content. By using zoom function, you can highlight objects and attract students' attention. And by using pan function, you can change the perspective of the video as if the camera is moving horizontally, creating a dynamic video that keeps students engaged.

    ■ Make dynamic animated videos with the effect function

    The effect function includes "Enter Effect" (effect to display characters, etc.) and "Exit Effect" (effect to exit), which can be used to make animations more dynamic.

    ■ Explain video content with mask function

    The mask function is a feature that allows you to incorporate another material into the material. For example, you can place a character inside a circular material, or insert a video into a monitor material to explain or supplement the content of the video.
