My spirit animal, the American Buffalo.

I have to admit that I am more of a fan of the term Buffalo but it is because of the symbol of the creature and not so much the actual factual about the creature. I love that historically they had their own territory as they roamed the vast North American continent. These amazing creatures roamed from Alaska to the Gulf of Mexico. Although these most powerful creatures once numbered in the excess of 10’s of millions they were once hunted to near extinction and only with massive intervention have they recovered to roughly 31,000, even if these numbers are restricted to only a select number of national parks and a few reserves. 

The sacred white buffalo “Big Medicine” represented all the sacred power of the mystic and real world around us. The buffalo symbol represents the sacredness of live and the abundance of resources around us. The buffalo is a symbol of self sacrifice and it will continue to give until nothing is left to offer. 

I love the idea of living up to the symbol of this great creature and one small way for me was to create this fun little drawing. 

The tale of two Networks

What a great video to work on with some great people. I have always enjoyed being able to throw a little homage  to other creatures and this was the perfect chance to say thanks for the work of previous animators and game makers. I think we did a pretty good job of creating a corporate video in this hand drawn style. 

Boat Ride

I don’t get to draw on the white board for every corporate video we produce here at Wienot Films, but there aren’t many that I don’t have the honor of working on initial storyboards. This video for IHS Markit was a fun quick storyboard to work on before I got to hand it off to the computer animator. I really like the look of the hand drawn video but this one is a great style. It is an amazing product for some effective marketing. 

Who’s afraid of the dentist?

We’ve had a really fun project at Wienot Films to take a previously produced whiteboard video and update and bring it up to current needs for an awesome client working his wizardry to produce beautiful smiles and reducing the pain of his patients.

I really don’t know much about what had gone into the development of this awesome technique of the good doctor but when we look at producing an explainer video or a corporate video for each and every client we have we put everything we have into its production. That’s a real mouthful to say we really put our all into each marketing video and we work hard to make it awesome and amazing.

I personally really liked working on the characters in this video to find just the right look for the girl to give her a little visual appeal while maintaining the presence of her pain at the beginning of the video!

A break in production to explain a break

Every once in a while we take a moment away from the corporate video making to do a little marketing of our own or maybe just to have a little fun. It so happened at this time we were looking at the beginning of the school year and wanted to thank those people that are traditionally working so hard to keep the kids busy and active all summer.

At Wienot Films we take a few minutes here and there to try and improve our job at producing some of the most amazing hand drawn whiteboard videos on the planet.

This little explainer video is simple a fun little view at the crazy home life of the parent at home with the kids and then the break that is required when the kids start school again! Feel free to have a watch and maybe suggest something fun for our next fun promotional video!
