Whiteboard Animation Video? Get It Cheap Here

Looking for a cheap, but engaging whiteboard animation video? I will do it for you. It's a good quality one and originally hand drawn, no clip arts or stock images.

I have been doing this for around 4 years but mostly I win projects in Indonesia. Anybody who want something different from what you usually see on YouTube, you can try to compare it to my work. See the example here.



For those who haven't known the benefit of having this kind of attractive presentation, please be there in the classroom. Research has repeatedly demonstrated that students learn better when they are fully engaged and that multisensory, hands-on learning is the best way to engage them. Interactive whiteboards facilitate multi sensory learning whether it is a collaboration exercise for math problem solving or a Google Earth tour of the Amazon rain forest.

This kinds of animation was initially not cheap. You had to spend more than $ 1000 for a few-second video and that's done traditionally. Now there are some softwares which enable anybody--even those who are not good at drawing--create an engaging presentation.

Another sample, look at this Tom Jones Without Love There is Nothing.



Well, I fell in love with RSA Animate style. and both these whiteboard animation samples are inspired by it. As you know, there are quite a few ways to make videos. The most common formats are: Webcam videos, where someone simply speaks into the camera. Videos shot with cameras or phones. Slideshow videos made with a program such as PowerPoint. Slideshow videos made using a service such as Animoto. The cost vary, from a cheap to the expensive ones. I might not say this two or three years ago, I guess.

Whiteboard animations surely function as a sales tool and it’s getting cheaper. One of the most effective uses of them is as a vehicle for sales message delivery. In fact, giving sales pitches via video offers a number of different advantages compared to standard, “stand and deliver” style Power Point presentations. On the one hand, the doodle art can go where salespeople sometimes can’t. Because these videos can be distributed digitally, they can be deployed on the web or via email in situations where an in-person meeting isn’t possible or practical. In this way, they can help increase sales where traditional presentation methods would have failed.

Okay, now just write your text. This is one for the example: The Reece School, which serves students in kindergarten through eighth grade, is one of the oldest non-profit special education schools in New York City. The school was founded in 1948 by Ellen S. Reece and housed for nearly 60 years in the home she owned on East 93rd Street in New York City.

In 2006, after decades of continual growth, the Reece School moved from its original home into a modern, high-tech new building located at 25 East 104th Street, next to the famous Museum Mile and Central Park.

Reece has a highly academic special education program for psychologically fragile students who may have learning disabilities, emotional dysregulation or speech and language impairments. In addition to the academic curriculum, the Reece School stresses the development of social skills to help children function successfully.

When you’re done with it, you can have a cheap, but engaging whiteboard animation video here. Thanks.

Some Silly Reasons Donald Trump Hates Islam, Obama?

donald trump hates islam, obama
Do you know the reason why Donald Trump hates Islam? Or Obama? Once upon a time, Mr. Flinstone got bored living in stone age and thought about having money more modern than just piles of leaves. He left his family and explored a remote area only to find nothing but a cave. He entered the cave and arrived in a jippy in the era of what so called globalization. There’s the Internet, and suddenly he stood there in some place like cafe with someone who didn’t really care about his presence, thinking about some silly things that he had done: Being here, how come?

It doesn’t really explain where his whereabouts. But he finds some enlightment, money is no more than piles of leaves and this stuff is not compulsary anymore. People can use check, ATM, credit card, PayPal, Pioneer, etc to buy anything they want. He gets to know that there’s someone very rich there in America named Donald Trump. And this tycoon doesn’t have to use piles of leaves for any kinds of transaction, he has everything men don’t, having piles of money invested everywhere. Then, he read the newspaper why should this rich man hate Islam? And why Obama seems like to support Muslims all the time.

Mr. Tycoon’s hatred came from his failure to understand the religion as what most people think: Muslims cannot perform their 5-day prayer with Mr. Flinstone dress and their women have to cover themselves all over in hijab. This decency is what he might dislike, how can America, the greatest country with free way of thinking, become better morally and look old fashioned? And how come Obama has Hussein with his name, it’s a Muslim name!

There will be no rock and roll, all night long parties, no Ms. Universe, no Hollywood actions, no night club, no beer, no pork, is that right? Come on, this is America, really hate if its’ all gone! That Mr. Flinstone got bored living in a stone age and thought about having money more modern than just piles of leaves, that’s nonsense. Logically men living on earth to make a living and protect themselves from danger, so they need to cover themselves from evil. Is Obama leading a massive campaign to support what is so called barbaric religion, but to the convert, it’s so peaceful?

Perhaps Donald Trump suffers amnesia when he cannot see these American Muslim Heroes living even before Obama became President. But not sure if It is the herpes simplex virus – chickenpox and cold sores – that is most likely to attack the hippocampus and temporal lobe, the parts of the brain responsible for memory.’ Symptoms of encephalitis include a flu-like illness, exacerbated by more specific warning signs such as seizures or an altered personality.

Trump might be shocked to learn that America not only has a number of Muslim athletic heroes, but he has also met several of them. In 2007, for instance, Trump accepted a Muhammad Ali Award at a charity event in Phoenix hosted by the three-time heavyweight champion of the world, who converted to Islam in 1964. There was no sign that he hated islam. Trump even took a picture with The Greatest.

And ... Oh, by the way, where is Mr. Flinstone anyway? What?! He’s playing golf with Obama?

5 Things Not To Do To Be a Great Man

In order to be an outstanding person, you have to measure your own self; your own expertise, fondness and goal in life. It is not recommended that you become a sissy while you're leading a meeting for the first time in your life. Or you cry out on the street claiming that you can outdo Arnold Schwarzenegger when it comes to body building. Do you want to add some muscles to show it off to your angry boss?

There you go again, Mr. Nurman,  Sure, I get bored writing about something serious, for this won't upgrade my income. Nobody will come to me asking me a favor to write about finance, or gadget or fashion and so on and so on, but anyway, seriously you just cannot do these 5 stupid things in order to be somebody, a person that many people adore. Forget about disjointed context. 

The don'ts

1. You wear a mask to school or office and the mask is one hundred percent similar to Spider-man's.
Even if you're sure you have some blessed super power and you want to confess that you are a strong man, this is a stupid thing to do to humiliate yourself.  
Look who's crazy now ...

2. Great people never beg for nothing, so don't beg, even if you have no money. Perhaps, you just can close your eyes in case you get laid off from your company and you're totally broke, you can start dreaming of having a bowl of noodle. Pretend that this noodle is food from heaven. Please chin up ...

3. Dance but without a great deal of people around. If you just wanna dance because you want to entertain yourself it is okay if you do it while sleeping. Do it seriously and better not have that fancy that you spontaneously become a Bollywood star and that everybody on the street turn to be dancers, to sing and dance with you. Absolutely, this is such a stupid thing to do and that won't make you a great man. 

4. No alcohol, no drug and so on. If you get drunk, you may become a great person for a while but your shadow will slap you in the face and will you feel sorry to see it cry all night long because of your addiction? Please don't wet the bed for this. 

5. Never feel sorry to revisit this blog in order to tickle your fancy. No matter what your status is, profession, ethnic and religion, you are welcomed here to be a great man. Sure, I'll treat all my guest as a king. So, anyway, what would you like to drink Your Majesty?

What?! You want to wear that Spider-man mask, instead? And beg for money, dance on the street, get drunk and decide never ever visit this blog?

Well, you're not a girl, not yet a woman, who's crazy now?

7 Extremely Strange and Weird Wedding Traditions

Guest Post By Lisa Cohen

Every human society in this world has one thing in common and that is marriage. It is a socially recognized ritual with the union of a man and a woman for the rest of their lives because this is what they have vowed about. It is the beginning of a new life when two people live together and share their happiness and sorrows all together. They experience celebration of new beings in their life and welcome some very beautiful memories. They tackle all the ups and downs and never let anyone break this bond.


Apart from all this a marriage begins with celebration and what we call it is a wedding. Ringing bells, bride and groom, maid of honor, flower bouquet and a list of some beautifully written vows are all part of this beautiful experience. But that’s not all; weddings around the world follow some traditions and cultures that are set for hundred years. Whether these traditions are crazy, gross, hilarious, terrifying, confusing or mixture of all you somehow have to follow them just to save the day and your marriage. But going through the following list, you will get a perfect idea how strange some weddings can be and how weird they can get.





1. THE BLACKENING OF THE BRIDE


This is the most disgusting tradition of Scottish weddings that the bride experiences during the ceremony. One can’t image what the level of disgust it can be. It is a pre-marriage ritual where the bride belonging from certain parts of Scotland is covered all in grossness and then tied up with a tree. The throwing of all black material continues and the pre-marital humiliation continues. If you can handle this kind of situation you can handle anything in life. Even they don’t let the bride try out some wedding hairstyles for long hair because she is too busy in destroying herself.




2. LISTEN TO THE SALTY SONG


This very awkward yet hilarious tradition comes from China where Tujia people plays with the emotions of the bride and every female in the family. They take the matter to the whole new idea where they force the bride to start crying for an hour daily 30 days before her marriage. After 10 days the mother joins in and both of them practice the annoying cry. Then later after 10 days grandmother also start to do the same. By the end of the very month all the females of the family practice crying with the bride. It is supposed to be an expression of celebration and joy as the entire women cry in different tones and it seems like a salty and wet song.




3. THE CHICK LIVER TEST


These Chinese traditions are way too awkward for wedding celebrations. People known as Daur from the Chinese Inner Mongolia have some special tradition to follow before a wedding. To finalize the wedding the bride and the groom has to go through some bizarre rules. They have to slit a chick while holding the knife altogether. They both have to gut the chick and check for the liver. If the liver is in good shape than the wedding is finalized else they continue doing this until they find a satisfactory liver.




4. MARRY THE TREE


This very old Indian wedding tradition is just a hurdle for the upcoming marriage. In India when a baby girl is born Manglik as per labeled by their astrologists which happens when Mars and Saturn are both under the influence of the 7th house. God better knows what they want from all this. It is basically a curse on the girl and if she marries like this her husband will die within few days. To remove the curse, the girl is first married to a tree which is then destroyed to break the curse. Later on the girl’s proper wedding ritual is done with a live man, poor tree having a bad time.




5. THE TALE OF A WHALE


This pre-wedding tradition is from the country Fiji which is indeed strange yet very tough to do. In Fiji if a man loves a woman and wants her hand in marriage then he has to go through a tough test. The man is not only expected to ask his father in law for his daughter’s hand in marriage but he also has to present a whales tooth as a token of love for his daughter. This isn’t an easy job because a whales tooth is either available in black market or you have to get it from its mouth deep in the sea. That is what you call a true love.




6. THE TRASHY WEDDING TIME


It is one of the weirdest and grossest traditions of all times. Being the very civilized nation of this world, France has many old and trashy traditions to follow. A French wedding is not complete until the friends and family of both bride and groom make them gulp all the trash and ugly stuff from the toilets bowl. They collect everything dirty and gross and force the bride and the groom to drink it out. But now this trash is all replace by chocolate and other stuff but you are still drinking out brown stuff which in reality real from the toilet bowl.




7. THE AIMING TRADITION


Chinese cultures are often very strange and weird and it is really hard to believe that in reality they use to perform such rituals and still doing that. In Chinese Yugur culture the broom has to actually shoot his new bride with a bow and an arrow three times before a wedding. In actual the arrows don’t have any arrowheads, but still the bride has to be hit with something which is similar to rubber bullets. Once this process is complete the groom collects all the arrows thrown and breaks them into pieces just to ensure that they will love each other till their last breath. To get your true love, no doubt you have to follow some strangest things around.

Why Yoko Ono Likes Me

I am grateful Yoko Ono likes me. She cannot live without me. She's been with me the rest of her life. Ono grew up in Tokyo, and studied at Gakushuin, I know it. She withdrew from her course after two years and rejoined her family in New York in 1953. She spent some time at Sarah Lawrence College, and then became involved in New York City's downtown artists scene, including the Fluxus group.

I also know she first met Lennon in 1966 at her own art exhibition in London, and they became a couple in 1968. Ono and Lennon famously used their honeymoon as a stage for public protests against the Vietnam War with their Bed-Ins for Peace in Amsterdam and Montreal in 1969.

But there's no story about Yoko Ono liked doing mountain climbing in Indonesia, India or Pakistan. Do you like mountain climbing, anyway? Mountain climbing doesn’t require power-lifting skills, but it does require a fair bit of strength. After all, you’re not just hauling your body up the mountain, you’re also probably hauling a large pack on your back and your body needs to be able to move vertically with that extra weight.

But we're not talking about mountain climbing here, we're talking about my relationship with Yoko Ono. As Lennon's widow, Ono works to preserve his legacy. She funded Strawberry Fields in New York City, the Imagine Peace Tower in Iceland, and the John Lennon Museum in Saitama, Japan (which closed in 2010). She has made significant philanthropic contributions to the arts, peace, Philippine and Japan disaster relief, and other causes. Ono continues her social activism, inaugurating a biennial $50,000 Lennon Ono Grant for Peace in 2002 and co-founding the group Artists Against Fracking in 2012.

As the one to serve not only yoko Ono, I have so many uncountable fans all around the world. Once she said, "John loved chocolate. I didn’t. But after his passing, I went for chocolate, and I liked it. Now, I’m trying not to eat too much of it."

Ono likes to have orange juice with grated ginger and garlic mixed when she comes home from a long trip abroad, But she cares about me much than that.

Okay, now I just cannot hide myself from you all guys if you're so curious about me. First, do you know what she eats? She doesn’t crave for big fat steak, Just a little bowl of rice and kimchi will do for her lunch. Kimchi is her favorite thing.She eats mostly vegetables. She can’t stand how we are treating the animals.She eats fish off and on. But actually, She feels the best when she is just eating good, fresh vegetables.

Now, why she likes me, because I think she and most Asians agree that their stomach will cry if they don't see me in a day. Okay, ladies and gentlemen, allow me to introduce myself. Name is rice and here is my partner kimchi.

why yoko ono likes m
Hm... Yummy ...

Why I Hate Darren Kavinoky

Do you know why I hate Darren Kavinoky? It's because as a termite I never see him supporting what I have been doing with my colony to have fun in this world. He never thinks that termites play a vital role in nature. We enjoy breaking down dead wood and other cellulose materials. In His office not even once he cares about the ecosystem and the balance of nature, how come? While now, I'm proud of being a pest that causes over $5 billion in damages in the U.S. each year.

See? You cannot even see me in this picture!
Do you know the meaning of cryptic? we, termites don’t come out into the open. And we want him to be open to us. Once I saw this guy walking down the street. I wondered why he doesn't want to creep as what we do. That's cool, you know? God, I really hate Darren Kavinoky, not because he is an American criminal lawyer and television journalist who is the creator of the television show Deadly Sins on Investigation Discovery, but because he never understands what we feel about one another. We really want to be human and treated equal, and we want him to declare that this idea is brilliant. We want him to spread this message through his Twitter, LinkedIn or any other social media that we deserve a new life.

I really envy that Kavinoky was named a Thomson Reuters Super Lawyer Rising Star in 2005 and 2006, and was named a Super Lawyer in 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013. I just want to outdo him. I really want to win a Super Termite Star contest if it's available, but when will that time come into being?

So, guys, how to attract Darren Kavinoky's attention so that he cares about us? Should I say a keynote in public speaking is not only a talk that establishes the main underlying theme, but also a talk about marginal population--us? I really hate to hate human being, but you know, human beings like browsing on the Internet and reading something like how to kill termites, how to do it yourself and save big money. 

As a criminal lawyer, I don't think Darren Kavinoky will help me. Maybe he'll contact the author of this blog and say, your content is silly dude!
