I am all about simplicity.
Clear and concise, no jargon, just straight up English.
Which is why I absolutely love Common Craft’s Plain English explanation videos.
They create 3 minute semi- animated videos breaking down difficult lessons in a light and witty manner.
They use a video style that is especially appealing: “… They’re short and simple. They use paper cut-outs. They cover subjects “in Plain English.” But lurking under the simple surface are lessons that have been crafted with great care. Despite our fun and lighthearted style, we take explanation seriously.”
All their creations are custom made.
Below is my favorite to date, Social Media In Plain English:
