Mascots and comic art are powerful marketing tools that businesses of all sizes and types can use to effectively communicate their message to audiences of all ages and completely transcend language barriers.

The Power of Comic Strips

Comic strips can communicate concepts and ideas to audiences of all ages and completely transcend languages. They can be used to give friendly reminders, offer tips, and provide educational material. For example, Coca-Cola assigned me to create wordless comic strips to remind people to recycle cans which were printed directly on the cans. These strips can also be used for internal purposes such as employee training and skill development, corporate training and executive briefings, or to enhance presentations and PowerPoint slides. They are also a wonderful media for e-learning or educational material.

The Power of Custom-Created and hand drawn Explainer Videos: Why They’re Worth the Investment

23/02/2023 | Comments: 0 | Posted by: idmarsden | In: Advertising, art of illustration, brand recognition, business, Business Illustration, clean illustration, conversion rates, cost-effective, custom-created explainer videos, customer retention, engagement rates, experienced illustrator, explainer illustration, explainer video, explainervideos schweiz, hand-drawn explainer videos, Ian David Marsden, illustrateur, Illustrateur France, Illustration, Illustration Deutschland, Illustration France, Illustration Schweiz, Illustrator Deutschland, Illustrator Schweiz, Marketing, Marsden Illustration, startups, Whiteboard, Whiteboard Animation, whiteboard schweiz, Whiteboard Video

Explainer videos have become a popular tool for businesses and startups to market their products and ideas in an engaging and informative way. But not all explainer videos are created equal. Cheap productions that use reusable clipart and avatars may seem like a cost-effective option, but investing in custom-created and hand-drawn explainer videos can have numerous benefits for your business.

Custom-created and hand-drawn explainer videos offer an elegant and tailored solution to suit any product or presentation. With the art of illustration, any scenario is possible for a reasonable budget, making it a more cost-effective option than traditional methods such as a photoshoot with models, influencers and moviestars and tons of costumes and props in a fancy studio, or on location on a yacht or a private jet. (Why not just draw all of these elements?)

I am frequently called upon to create drawings for presentations and explainer videos or advertising videos or education videos.

My style of drawing videos and explainer videos differs from the vast majority of video productions because they are actual drawings which unfold, drawn by an actual artist who knows how to draw. The appearance can vary in different illustration styles, we can use color, we can use painterly brush strokes, pen, or pencil sketches. It is an actual work of art unfolding. The intrigue also lies in what unfolds first and what unfolds next.
