Use Whiteboard Animation to Communicate Effectively
explain
something new or complicated to a group of people
persuade
others to take action or to change their behaviour
inspire
others with your vision and ideas
Even when you master your subject matter, your communication efforts can fail.
Maybe you’re too close to your topic. Maybe you feel too attached to every detail. And so you throw the kitchen sink of information at your audience.
But instead of getting the results you’re after, you leave them disinterested and confused.
It’s frustrating because the information you have to share is valuable. If only you knew how to communicate it effectively.
Exaltus can help.
Whether you’re talking to employees, customers, the board, or investors, poor communication comes at a cost.
Our whiteboard animation company specializes in using the power of visuals to turn your complex information into compelling stories.
Our award-winning videos attract and hold attention, build trust, engage your audience and move them to act.
Our whiteboard animation packs a punch.
Because they’re so different, whiteboard videos attract and hold attention. They create anticipation and keep viewers engaged, as they wait to see what is being drawn out.
Compared to talking head videos, research from University of Hertfordshire’s Professor Richard Wiseman shows that whiteboard videos:
- Are rated as 33% more entertaining
- Deliver a 15% higher recall rate
- Are 66% more likely to be shared
And a 2023 independent study of Exaltus whiteboard videos revealed that our videos increase their viewers’ knowledge, confidence levels and motivation to act, with more than 90% of respondents saying that watching a whiteboard video had increased their motivation to act.
Communicate Consistently Across All Your Channels
Ensure that your message is communicated the right way, even when you can’t be in the room. Make your messages land with clarity and consistency… from a tweet to the boardroom. Think of whiteboard videos as a multiplier for your marketing mix. They make every interaction count:
On your Website or App
In Your Presentations
In Your Training & Onboarding
On Social Media
At Events
In Your Email Marketing

“I’m a writer. A word person. So when Carole approached me about creating a short video based on my work I’ll be honest: I didn’t see it. I said okay but internally I threw up a side eye. Like… why?
Then she showed me what she created. She distilled my words into a visual story and… WOW! She made my thoughts come alive in a fun, tangible way that made the ideas more accessible and more joyous.
Carole: I’m sorry I doubted you. I get it now.
And you there… ? Reading this? Hire her. She’s awesome.”

“When I presented the new whiteboard explainer video at our annual sales meeting everyone went crazy! They loved it! Carole and her team nailed our message.

The Exaltus team made suggestions that improved the process throughout…and continued to support us as we launched the videos they produced. An incredible experience we are sure to repeat.“

After showing everyone the videos, they were amazed!! There were lots of chuckles at the illustrations and sound effects, and even some “wows” at the statistics and facts that we have included. They have heard us talk about these facts and figures endlessly, but I think it really resonated with them when they saw the way that you presented them. It was exciting to see their reaction.

“We consider your videos the crown jewels of our campaign. We are proud to have partnered with you.”
“It is a delight to work with Carole Alalouf and Exaltus. Carole has enabled me to create educational messages that are dense with content but are presented in clear, accessible images. She converts complexity into clarity. She listens and she delivers- quickly and effectively. Her whiteboard animation is brilliant for linking multiple concepts into a simple, coherent whole.
I am so impressed by how quickly Carole ‘gets’ what I am trying to say and how quickly I have product to review. We have worked together for a few years now and she has never let me down. I lucked out when I ‘discovered’ Carole and Exaltus. I could not recommend a professional more highly.”

Is Exaltus Whiteboard Animation Right for You?
Our whiteboard videos aren’t right for everyone. If you have a simple story to tell, you know how to write your own script, and you’re able to get by with stock illustrations, then you can probably find someone to animate your video for only a few hundred dollars.
An Exaltus whiteboard video is right for you if:
You’re struggling to communicate your message in a clear, concise, compelling, and memorable way and you could benefit from the expertise of experienced storytellers who know how to wrestle your information into an effective script.
You want a say in the creative decisions that will go into the production of your whiteboard video to ensure that you are happy with the finished product and that it reflects your corporate identity.
Your video needs made-to-order visuals—not just generic stock imagery—so that you can portray your specific subject matter, team, offering… and/or everything that makes you unique.
You want a top-tier video of the highest quality that sets you apart from competitors and creates a lasting impression. Our award-winning animation studio has been producing whiteboard videos since 2014 and we make it our mission to one-up ourselves with every video we produce.
