Frequently Asked Questions About Our Whiteboard Videos

Exaltus is an award-winning visual storytelling studio that specializes in turning your complex information into a compelling story that engages your audience, sparks emotion, and moves them to act.

Here are the answers to some questions you may have before scheduling your consultation. If you have other questions or are ready to chat with us about your project, please contact us today. We can’t wait to hear from you!

We generally recommend that you keep your video to a maximum length of 2-3 minutes (or 300-450 words). Training videos can be a little longer. A series of shorter videos is usually a better choice than a single, much longer video.

We aim to complete the average 2-3 minute whiteboard video within 6 weeks, but we’ve been known to work faster when necessary.

You can use your whiteboard video to consistently tell your story across multiple channels, even when you can’t be face to face. For example:

  • On your website or in your app
  • In your presentations
  • In your training & onboarding
  • On social media
  • At events
  • In your email marketing

For actual examples of how our clients have used their videos, please check out this post.

We follow a time-tested, 6-step process to deliver your video. Here are the key milestones of our whiteboard animation process:

  1. Discovery
  2. Script
  3. Storyboard
  4. Illustration & animation
  5. Voiceover
  6. Music & sound

We manage the entire process, from soup to nuts, but you get to sign off at every stage. For more details on our whiteboard animation process, please click here.

Just the right amount! Enough to know what’s going on every step of the way and have a chance to ask for changes before it’s done. Not so much that you have carve out hours of time from your already hectic schedule.

You supply the raw material and we will turn ir into a high-quality video script that turns your key messages into a great story. 

Some animation studios are only that: animators. They’re good at adding illustration and animation to your words. 

But pretty pictures don’t make a good story. And stories make it much easier for your audience to assimilate and remember information. More importantly, it’s the stories that illicit emotion and move your viewers to act.

So much the better!

Ideas can change the world. But only if you can communicate them in a clear and engaging way that moves people to act. The trouble is that some of the best ideas are often the hardest to explain. Especially for the people who are closest to them.

We pride ourselves on having the smarts to understand your complicated information and the artistry needed to make it meaningful and engaging. We like to think of ourselves as sculptors: Bring us your lump of clay and we’ll reveal and refine the parts that matter, and shape them into something meaningful.

Yes! No stock imagery here. That means that we can reproduce your proprietary products, reflect your company’s diversity and even draw characters that are reminiscent of your team members.

At Exaltus, we’re pretty picky about how we tell your story. And that means assembling exactly the right team to make your video the best it can be. To do that, we’ve vetted hundreds of freelancers from around the world to create a roster of experts in each field.

You may not know it yet, but there are so many stories you could tell to engage your audience, spark emotion, and move them to act.

Here are just a few examples of potential stories you could tell:

  1. Your origin story
  2. Your brand story
  3. Customer success stories
  4. Your values as a story
  5. Your strategic narrative
  6. Employee stories
  7. Compliance stories
  8. An investor pitch

Absolutely. We simply ask that you provide the translation for the script and on-screen text. We’ll do the rest. We evaluate the costs of the additional video on a case-by-case basis, but it’s never close to the cost of a second video.
