What is a whiteboard video?
A whiteboard video is a custom explainer that uses drawn illustrations and narration to teach a product, process, or idea. Website Talking Heads produces whiteboard videos for businesses that need clear, on-brand explainers—not stock kits. They work well for product education, process walkthroughs, training, and B2B campaigns where diagrams beat a talking head alone.
Whiteboard video FAQs
What is a whiteboard video?
A whiteboard video is an explainer that uses hand-drawn or tablet-drawn illustrations—often with a voiceover—to teach a product, process, or idea. Talking Heads produces custom whiteboard videos for marketing, training, and sales, not stock templates with your logo slapped on.
When should a business use a whiteboard video instead of a talking-head spokesperson?
Use whiteboard when the story is conceptual (how it works, multi-step process, abstract benefits). Use a talking-head spokesperson when trust, personality, and direct address matter more than diagrams. Many campaigns use both: a spokesperson open/close with a whiteboard mid-section.
How long should a whiteboard explainer be?
Most B2B whiteboard videos land between 60 and 180 seconds. Shorter for ads and social; longer for training or complex product walkthroughs. Length should match one clear job, not every feature.
What does Talking Heads need to produce a whiteboard video?
A clear goal, audience, and draft script or outline. We refine the script, storyboard the visuals, illustrate, record voiceover (or sync to your talent), edit, and deliver web-ready files. Brand colors, logos, and product references help keep the piece on-brand.
Are whiteboard videos the same as motion graphics or animation?
No. Whiteboard emphasizes drawn illustration and teaching pace. Motion graphics lean on typography, UI, and kinetic design. 2D/3D animation can be full character or product cinema. We produce all three when the brief calls for it.
