Jenn, you showed me more about Doodly in 20 minutes than the same time spent trawling their site. Exactly the in depth review I wanted. Hilariously, at the exact point your play of the final product finished, KZfaq started playing the Doodly ad and it flowed in seemlessly. I was kinda confused till I realised the ad had stitched in. If my planned video project is half as good as this I'll be deliriously happy.

I love that you don't up-talk or exhibit any other kinds of annoying speech patterns that seem so prevalent these days, especially on KZfaq. Your style is a breath of fresh air, and I truly appreciate it. Usually I cant get through videos of this nature in their entirety because the speech cadence of the presenter is like nails on a chalk board to me. Your very professional and well spoken, articulating things clearly. That all being said, I wondered about the audio timeline issues and if perhaps using an audio editor like Audacity to chop up the voice-over would help make timeline editing any easier.

I really enjoyed your video. It was good to see Doodly from the viewpoint of a video production professional. I haven't looked at Doodky since I bought it in their prelaunch promotion. I think that might have been in 2016? I never did much with it. After I bought Doodly I discovered Explaindio and loved one feature of Explaindio that Diidky didnt offer. That feature was to be able to take an image and do it as a line art drawing and then fade in the color image to replace the line art. They went ine step further however. You could do the same thing with a video. In Explaindio you also had the ability to insert videos into scenes. The ability to add a transition from doing a line drawing if the first frame into the video starting to play made me choose Explaindio over Doodley. I have not needed the whiteboard software in a while but I am starting a project where i believe it will be a useful tool. I would like to hear what you think about Explaindio and if there are any other tools that are worth checking out.

Hi Jenn! Thankee for this VERY useful tutorial. I'm the marketer and have some questions about this topic: 1. For what video-formats (I mean guides, demonstrations etc.) Doodly will be handy most of all? 2. Could I mix up an animated video with real video (while editing process)? For instance, video on my phone + Doodly animation. 3. Maybe, we should pay attention to other services, which could be more cheaper and convenient? What could you advice?

I was thinking the same thing as a Premier Pro and Davinci Resolve user...why take ages learning a new software? However I really wanted the hand writing animation in my videos so decided to give doodly a shot and spend a day watching doodly videos and practicing it. It is so much easier to learn everything you need to know in one day unlike video editing software that takes forever! Now I use doodly to make a base video from my narration...then put that video into davinci resolve and add stuff in to enhance it. It is so good!

I put together my first Doodly video. I think you did a good job reviewing it. It's not as robust as I had hoped it would be. It's good for producing a basic video but I wish it had more features. I had to figure out a lot of work arounds to get some simple affects like adding color to an image. What I like best about it is that it allows you to import your own images and add the drawing path (takes a long time but worth the outcome). I hope they keep adding more features and improving it.

Thank you for reviewing this software, although I think I would have been less frustrated and actually watched your video entirely if you had run an example of the finished video first to build engagement and interest, then broke down your process, these explainer videos work much better if peek your audience's interest or they have a finished image in mind to share your interest and understanding of the steps you are expanding on from the start rather than holding their attention hostage for the climax in the end with the video reveal. This likely serves those who own the software well because you do go into great detail. The truth is I was hoping this would be a good introduction for my daughter, who has been all over me to download Vyond for her, and I have been trying to find her something a little more affordable I thought your video might be a little more influencing for her than it was, even still it is a great video I am sure for those who do own the software and are aware of what the finished videos look like. Thank you again!
