When creating videos, I use a variety of tools including Adobe After Effects, Character Animator, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Audition, and Adobe Premier. However, sometimes, speed is required, and in those moments, using pre-build tools available to quickly produce How To and Explainer Videos is an great solution. Finally, even Microsoft Office can be used to create animated videos from PowerPoint.
The videos below represent all of these methods for producing motion graphics and videos. In fact, several of the videos were created using all of these tools together. What is important to note, is that despite the variety of tools used, brand consistency is maintained and the flow feels natural.
