Explainers

Explain a concept, principle or method. Use these templates for science, algorithms, mathematics, mechanics, history and spoken explanations. An occasional chart does not make an explainer a data story.

Choose one main category for the purpose of the finished video. Check the template’s aspect ratio, duration, parameters and media slots, then add your content and preview the result.

Frequently asked questions

How should I choose a main category?

Use the primary purpose of the complete video. Animation techniques and visual styles do not determine the main category.

What if there is no suitable template?

Browse other categories or upload your own .motion template. The publishing form always offers all 10 categories.
