Why TapVidChoose the information the motion must carry.
If your brief is a product explanation, begin with the source document and the questions it must answer. TapVid organizes that material into a reviewable brief before production.
The workflowMake relationships visible, not just animated.
A route is one kind of visual story; quantities and processes need their own structure. Use explanatory graphics when the audience needs to understand how parts or numbers relate.
The workflowMatch the narration to the planned scene.
Inspect the voiceover and screen action side by side. Use that checkpoint to direct how the explanation unfolds, rather than treating motion, text and narration as separate decisions.
Find your fitChoose for the video you need to deliver.
Choose TapVid
Choose TapVid when the difficult part is turning a product document or approved script into a clear sequence. Review what each scene says, what asset appears, and whether those two things match. Keep the production centered on the explanation.
Choose Motionvid AI
Choose Motionvid AI when the assignment is a map animation, geographic route, kinetic title, or another motion treatment you want to direct. Its current site also offers narration, music, and video editing, so it should not be described as a tool for isolated silent graphics only.
