hello and welcome to the penguin prof
channel this episode is for educators
and that number one question I have been
getting how do I do drawings for
tutorials and videos I'm gonna recommend
an app called explain everything it is
available on all platforms there's also
a web-based browser version for it I
think it is worth a look some of my
colleagues say that the learning curve
is a little steep maybe it is compared
to some standard whiteboard apps but I
tell you it's worth it because of the
number of things under the hood that
this little guy can do so I'm going to
show it to you on my twelve point nine
inch iPad pro 2018 I've got a
second-generation Apple pencil with it
I'm going to go ahead and record my
screen so you can see everything behind
the scenes as well as what they explain
everything video looks like in terms of
what it will output when we are making
an actual video so I'm gonna show you
kind of how I go about using it
everything you see within the red frame
is what will be in the eventual video
when we start recording everything
outside on the rest of the canvas that's
for you so what you can do is have
pre-made objects ready to go and then as
you're recording you can drag them in
and resize them and do stuff with it it
allows for an extremely dynamic
presentation which i think is what we're
all going for here this is called
stealth mode by the way but it's
brilliant I'll show you what I mean by
that in a second so when you go along
the left side these are the tools that
you have so this allows you to import
all kinds of files which you can draw on
top of and interact with this is the pan
move zoom tools that this allows you to
move things either while you're
recording or before if you use two
fingers you can pinch and zoom I have
this on a rotation lock so I can't twist
it but naturally you could do that as
well here we have a pen tool lots of
different color Atwell infinite colors
and and lots of sizes a highlighter tool
and eraser tool this is Phil this is
shapes you can make lines and shapes
here you have a text tool you have a
lasso different types of selection tools
super super helpful that's how you get
rid of objects very quickly this is
going to be a laser pointer you have
differ
sighs pointers and arrows and things for
the actual presentation the next one is
your inspector so when you select an
object this this is super powerful this
allows you to group and ungroup objects
and orient them lock them down if that's
what you want all kinds of stuff there's
a fabulous undo button very important
how can apps not have an undo button
I just don't know and then you can
control the type of presentation that
you want to have okay so when you look
along the bottom you have your timeline
now I have previously record have
previously recorded this video so I did
a previous recording and as you can see
it looks like a regular Video Editor but
what I want to do is make a new
recording and when you want to do that
you can select either an overwrite a mix
or an insert brilliant I'm going to
overwrite the whole thing so we're going
to start from scratch but I absolutely
love that they give you this option so
I'm gonna hit record and it asks you are
you sure you want to overwrite I'm gonna
say yes and now here we go so it's
recording it's recording everything that
I do on the canvas and it's recording
everything that I say that's optional
there's a microphone you can either mute
or not so what I want to do generally is
pre draw a lot of stuff obviously I
already have these little images drawn
and while I'm giving the presentation
that's when I want to be labeling things
highlighting things for the students to
pay attention to so these are the
ligands acetylcholine this is a
nicotinic receptor so this is a method
of signal transduction if you are not
aware so I would label these and talk
about them this is what the whole setup
looks like when the channel is closed
when I'm done talking about this
I can go back to the little hand tool
and resize the whole thing but I want to
keep it visible I want them to be able
to see that but now I'm going to talk
about what happens when two molecules of
acetylcholine bind to this receptor and
boom so now I bring that in and now the
channel changes shape now I can talk
about how the channel for mono valent
cations is open so sodium is going to
flood in some potassium can move out and
and so forth and what I can do while I'm
talking about these things is use the
little laser pointer arrow tool and
you'll notice now that I can talk about
how you know it takes two molecules of a
si
calling to bind in order for this
conformational shape to occur if you
don't like the laser pointer you can use
arrows so now I can point so this allows
you to interact with your drawings in a
very dynamic natural way I'm going to
hit stop and now what you see as we go
back through this in time all of the of
course my voice as well as all of the
pen drawings tools resizing everything
all of that is recorded and of course
you already saw the output in real time
on the screen but that's the idea I hope
you can see how powerful this is I
absolutely love this I recommend it to
everyone and I urge you to give it a try
so explain everything I'll put the
details down below I hope this was
helpful if it was please give me a
thumbs up and hit the bell and hit those
buttons and also in the comments let me
know what you would like to see next
because I would like to help in any way
that I can thank you so much for
visiting the penguin Prof channel good
luck
