Whiteboard history
Whiteboard animation was first created by Andrew Park for the RSA (Royal Society for the Advancement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce.) Their recorded talks were turned into videos that became massively popular on YouTube.
Our technique
While different whiteboard animation companies create the effect in different ways, our approach involves creating the art on a digital tablet and compositing a green-screened hand over it to create the illusion of drawing.
