A detailed review of the OnePlus 7T from :wired:

I TEST A lot of phones here at WIRED. Smartphones incrementally change each year, and they’ve become more of an essential utility and less of a source of the tech world’s greatest innovations. I often appreciate their new features, but few of those enhancements spark actual joy. The OnePlus 7T, however, has done just that. Putting down the glossy, fingerprint-plastered Galaxy Note10 to review the matte glass 7T was both a relief and a reminder why OnePlus has continued to gain popularity as a smartphone brand year after year.

Like the company's previous devices, the 7T is a phone that showcases much of the best smartphone tech introduced in 2019 at a $600 price—more than $100 cheaper than many top rivals from Samsung, LG, and other manufacturers. What I’ve come to appreciate more is how it uses all that latest tech to enhance my life, often by getting out of my way. Its touch interface is simple and looks just like the brand new Google Android 10 OS it runs on, only a little easier to navigate. It’s just more pleasant, like a PB&J sandwich where mom cut the crust off just because she loves you.

Smooth and Frosty

If you’ve seen an expensive smartphone in the last two years, you know what the 7T looks and feels like, but I’ll describe it anyway. It has a 6.5-inch AMOLED display (that means deeper blacks and richer colors) that takes up its entire front. A teenie teardrop cutout hanging from the top of the screen holds a 16-megapixel selfie camera.

Like the similar and more expensive OnePlus 7 Pro, this display has a 90 Hz refresh rate, which makes the entire interface noticeably smoother. OnePlus calls it a Fluid AMOLED display, and it may live up to that name. Phones have been bumping up the resolution (this one has a 1080p HD screen), but the bump in refresh rate is more noticeable. Everything feels smoother and faster, with richer color than many displays.

The power and volume buttons are in all the right places, and OnePlus has kept its sound/mute/vibrate switch on the right side. It’s a dead-simple little toggle and worth every millimeter of its cutout, letting you easily silence your phone or perk it up anytime.

OnePlus was one of the first companies to introduce an in-display fingerprint sensor, and the latest iteration on this phone is faster than ever. I’ve had trouble with Samsung's on-screen sensors in the Galaxy S10 and Note10, but the optical fingerprint reader in the 7T does the trick in a way that’s more convenient than the fingerprint sensors on the back of many phones like the Google Pixel 3A.

The phone's frame is metal, and the back is covered in shimmering Gorilla Glass because ... well ... trends. It’s silly that the back is made of glass at all, given that we probably drop our phones more than anything besides our keys, and there's no big advantage to the glass here since the 7T doesn’t have wireless charging. But the “glacier blue” color certainly is sleek, and the frosted texture repels fingerprints better than some phones. OnePlus thankfully includes a clear case in the box. I suggest you slip it on.

All Spec’d Out

Between all that glass is a list of luxury technical specs. The 7T runs on a Qualcomm Snapdragon 855+ processor, which is half a tad speedier than the 855 on some earlier phones this year. It also comes with 8 gigabytes of RAM, and 128 GB of storage. (Sorry, no MicroSD slot; that’s all you get.) These are all fantastic numbers, as are the numbers you’ll see from benchmark performance tests. It’s a powerful phone, right up there with the best.

OnePlus doesn’t make a lot of changes to Android 10, but the changes it does make seem to (mostly) improve the phone's performance. You can more easily swipe up or down from anywhere on the homescreen to access the notification shade or pull up your entire list of apps. I also like the gesture controls that mimic recent iPhones, and the option to turn the back button into a swipe from the left side of the phone has worked well for me. Your mileage may vary, but you can disable these gestures controls and go back to a traditional back-button setup if you like.

The fact that the 7T even has the latest Google OS is a testament to the company’s focus on delivering software and security updates. It promises two years of updates for buyers of the 7T, and has demonstrated a positive track record on updates for older phones. This is notable—despite costing close to $1,000, most Android phones outside of Google’s Pixel line and Motorola's handsets do not get regular software updates, leaving security vulnerabilities exposed and new features out of reach.

With stereo speakers and a gaming mode that optimizes graphics (and can also restrict notifications and calls so you can play without interruption), this is an ideal machine for playing Mario Kart Tour, or any other high-end title, until your eyeballs fall out. Netflix looks lovely, as well.

I’ve ended most days having spent four or five hours with the screen active, and seen about 50 percent battery remaining. A few nights, it’s been closer to 30 to 40 percent, if I stay up late. This is good, but somewhat normal battery life. If you want to improve your power efficiency, you can turn the 90 Hz refresh rate down to a more normal 60 Hz. In a pinch, the included charger is very quick. It can juice the 7T up significantly in a half hour.

Sadly, like many high-end phones, there’s no audio jack (and no adapter in the box), but OnePlus sells an adapter for $13. And this phone also isn’t IP-rated for water resistance. OnePlus claims it will handle some rain pretty well, but you won’t want to drop it in the tub.

Ready to Zoom

When it comes to smartphones, you ain’t cool unless you have three rear cameras these days, and OnePlus always wants to be cool. Like the 7 Pro, it has a 48-megapixel standard rear shooter that outputs extra sharp 12-megapixel images, a 16-megapixel sensor beneath an ultrawide lens, and a 12-megapixel telephoto. This lets you take shots that you can both zoom out a bit, and zoom in to 2X. There’s also a portrait mode, which adds a bokeh effect, the shallow depth-of-field trick that keeps the subject in focus but blurs the background in a close-up photo.

I had a great time shooting plenty of outdoor shots around Tulsa, Oklahoma, in the past week, and I've even enjoyed the extra stability of the Super Stable video mode, which uses the wide angle lens to better stabilize 1080p video; 4K 30 fps video is also available. Everything looks good, especially shots in the Nightscape mode. Like the new iPhone 11 and the latest Pixel phones, the 7T enhances night shots, adding more light, color and detail to areas that would have just appeared as black splotches on older phones. Night shots require a steady hand and a second or two wait, but they are a definite improvement.

In some of the above shots, you can see some examples of Nightscape mode and Super Macro mode. If you press the flower icon in the upper left side of the camera app, you can move in closer to small objects and still see them stay in focus. The effect isn’t perfect, but I was able to get closer to some plants and ants than I ever have before using a smartphone. It’s a blast to play around with modes like these, and they solidify the OnePlus 7T as a phone for shutterbugs.

Plus One

OnePlus isn’t tampering with the formula that got it to the dance, and that’s good. The 7T is one of the most powerful phones you can buy, and it costs hundreds less than its peers. It also runs on all four major US carriers, and T-Mobile sells it directly.

I've recommended the Pixel 3A ($400) as the best phone to buy for a few months now, and given the performance it offers for the price, for many of you it still is the best phone. But if you are willing to spend an extra $200, the OnePlus 7T will give you a taste of the luxuries you’d otherwise miss out on.

Correction: I referred to the display as a "Liquid" display. OnePlus calls it a "Fluid" display.

“May your heart be your guiding key” (Full thoughts on Kingdom Hearts III below!)

Graphics:

Ø  The game is bloody gorgeous, which helps mitigate the long and frequent cutscenes

Ø  The lip-syncing rarely fails

Music:

Ø  The new remixes are awesome and the brand-new tracks don't disappoint either

Ø  What does though is the actual audio mixing:

More often than not I struggled to hear the music over the sound effects during gameplay and the voiceovers during cutscenes

Ranking the Worlds:

Ø  #1: Corona: The world is huge, with varied terrain and a kick-ass final boss

Ø  #2 Olympus: The sheer scale and scope of the world took my breath away, plus we (finally!) get to fight all four titans

Ø  #3 The Caribbean: Assassin's Creed IV meets Kingdom Hearts, what's not to like

Ø  #4 Monstropolis: While not as eye-catching as some of the other worlds the way it intersects with the broader KH lore is really neat and the final cutscene was a delight in that it averts the Disney characters being useless when dealing with the original KH villains, on top of which its straightforward design is a nice change of pace, my only complaint is that there are only four types of Unversed

Ø  #5 San Fransokyo: The story is surprisingly short, which means you don't really get the chance to explore the environment, which sucks because the verticality and day/night cycle are awesome, plus there are a number of memorable boss fights

Ø  #6 Twilight Town: If it had been fully recreated based off the KH2 version the world would be much higher on my list but despite how small it is I love the liveliness, not to mention how peaceful it is in comparison to the other worlds, the same can be said for Hundred Acre Wood

Ø  #7 Keyblade Graveyard + Final World + Scala Ad Caelum: Though jaw-dropping in terms of visuals and audio they're not fully realized worlds, the same can be said for Dark World

Ø  #8 Toy Box: I loved the final boss as well as how the story tied into the larger plot of the game and I would be lying if I said I didn't enjoy exploring Andy's room while "You have a friend in me" played in the background

Why then is Toy Box so far down on my list, world design

Even with endgame stats (LV40-45) the Gigas are tough to take down and as a result they come off as gimmicky in the worst sense of the word, beyond that the fact that the majority of the world is set in Galaxy Toys made me feel constrained and claustrophobic, which could have been partially alleviated if we'd been allowed to make our way through the parking lot outside, finally, the story kind of got repetitive with the backtracking whenever the characters were about to leave because "someone went missing yet again"

Ø  #9 Arrendelle: Though it has one of the best final bosses in the game along with Corona there is so much wrong with this world that I wonder if it's less Square Enix's fault and more Disney placing an insane amount of red tape on their favorite cash-cow:

1) Elsa does not become a party member even after you beat the world

2) You do not get to explore the city or the ice palace despite the latter being fully rendered on the map

3) Larxene, a lightning-based character, randomly traps you in an ice labyrinth when that would have made a lot more sense both logically and thematically if it had been Elsa

4) Speaking of Larxene, she does practically nothing the whole time you're there unlike Marluxia and Luxord, who are at least semi-active

5) You climb a mountain and get knocked off of it so many times that even Sora gets fed up

6) The bloody minigame where you have to find Olaf's body parts

7) Forcing us to watch the entire "Let it go" sequence and then having "Do you want to build a snowman" play over Anna's voice as she's explaining herself to Sora

8) So much of the story is excised that you have little clue as to what's going on to the point Hans appears for all of five minutes, doesn't say any lines, and isn't even named when it would have been cool, not to mention, just plain better, if he had started off as a guest member of your party

9) As a result of #8 Sora, Donald, and Goofy's presence feels like even more of an afterthought than usual in the sense that them not being there wouldn't have changed anything at all apart from Hans' Heartless then having no one to defeat it which can be seen by the fact that when they leave no one tells them goodbye unlike in every other world

10) The visual design was bland and tiresome after a while

11) The world's gimmick was uninspired to say the least

12) Fighting alongside a giant snowman (AKA Marshmallow) was awesome and in terms of pure gameplay the labyrinth was actually quite fun

Story Pros:

Ø  Master Xehanort's new voice actor is good but after hearing Leonard Nimoy's voice for the past couple of games the change is a bit jarring

Ø  The way previous games are referenced and tied together is a nice way of bringing new players into the fold while also setting up the finale's resolutions

Ø  The game has a better sense of humor than previous installments

Ø  Sora is more like his KH2 self than the bland caricature we saw in 3D and quite a few characters display some degree of genre-savviness

Ø  Master Yen Sid gets out of his chair to lend a hand for once

Ø  Donald Duck is the most powerful mage in Square Enix canon (and I am not making that up)

Gameplay Pros:

Ø  Being able to switch between different save points in the same world is a welcome addition

Ø  The secondary ability of all shotlocks to airstep is ingenious

Ø  You can have more than two party members finally!

Ø  The secret ending isn't too hard to unlock

Ø  You can upgrade your Keyblades, which means older ones aren't automatically relegated to redundancy

Ø  Donald and Goofy are useful again after being nerfed into uselessness in KH2

Ø  Towns and cities are actually populated by fully-voiced NPCs!

Ø  Cutscenes in Theater Mode are unlocked after completing each world rather than after beating the game

Ø  I never tried the Classic Kingdom minigames but the cooking one with Remy was a nice break from the normal gameplay (I suck at the egg-cracking one though)

Ø  The camera doesn't get in the way like it infamously did in KH1

Ø  I like the new main menu design (Feel free to disagree though)

Ø  The Gummi Ship is entirely optional outside of a few mandatory boss battles

Ø  Moogle Tickets are a nice way of giving players a second chance during difficult encounters (I do wish they didn’t activate so quickly though) 

Gameplay Cons:

Ø  The game never once tells you that you can switch between Situation Commands using L2

Ø  The game never once tells you that you keep all your lower-tier magic (Fire, Fira for example) and that your shortcuts don't automatically update to include the higher-tier version of whatever magic you have equipped

Ø  There's no real incentive to switch between Keyblades (That being said, my favorites are Wheel of Fate, Nano Arms, and Happy Gear/Ever After)

Ø  Attractions lose their charm quickly and completely ruin the flow of combat

Ø  Summons aren't too big of a deal since I only ever ended up using them once and even then it was by accident

Ø  Donald still heals you at the wrong time more often than not

Ø  Even on Proud Mode the game is way too easy for the most part (Apparently Critical Mode addresses this but I can't confirm that)

Ø  There is a lack of sidequests and post-game content that contributes to the feeling Square & Disney gave us half a game (For example, there is only one secret boss, said secret boss has a generic design, no ties to the story, and can be defeated at LV40 on your first attempt)

Ø  Hollow Bastion, Mysterious Tower, and Destiny Islands are not playable

Ø  The parkour from 3D has been nerfed too much in terms of distance to actually be useful

Story Cons:

Ø  Nomura fridged Kairi and he worfed almost everyone the first time you arrive at the Keyblade Graveyard!

Ø  The wrapping up of plot points and character arcs from prior entries was a little too nice and neat for me

Ø  The out-of-nowhere introduction of Subject X

Ø  Pete and Maleficent do literally nothing the whole damn game

Ø  The pacing is awful:

Almost all of the game's resolution is held back until after you've beaten the last Disney world

Ø  There are two important cutscenes in the Final World that you can accidentally miss because for some reason they are optional

Ø  We don't get to see what happened to Lingering Will, which also means we don't get any more insight into the third aspect of being (AKA the soul)

Ø  There are no Final Fantasy characters in the game, not even Sephiroth!

Ø  What happened to Demyx?

Ø  Master Eraqus has absolutely nothing to do with Terra’s restoration

Changes I’d make:

Ø  Require us to go through the Disney worlds a second time like in KH2

Ø  Have Aqua and Ven be saved halfway through the game instead of at the end, they could then spend the second half of the game resting or join you on one of the Disney worlds to refresh themselves

Ø  Have Lea and Kairi join you on one of the Disney worlds to get practical experience

Ø  Make the Keyblade Graveyard sequence be a series of one/two/three-on one battles so that members of Organization XIII can use their full arsenal of attacks from previous games

Ø  Let us play the second battle between Lingering Will and Terra-Xehanort

Ø  Speaking of Terra-Xehanort, we should have fought him alongside the Guardian Heartless

Ø  Have us explore Scala Ad Caelum while hunting down the individual replicas before then making us fight all of them in a boss battle

DLC

Ø  The presence of it says a lot about the game and not in a good way

Final Score

Ø  7/10-8/10

Paladins Patch 1.3 Thoughts

So now that it’s a bit after the fact, I figure I might as well organize my thoughts more about the upcoming patch! Everything is under the cut, and I apologize in advance to mobile users. The patch notes for 1.3 are already up if you’re interested.

The Emote Wheel, and Gold Sinks

Okay so first off, just the addition of being able to equip multiple emotes and sprays on its own is such a good addition! But also as one of those folks currently sitting on a mountain of gold right now, we REALLY needed this sort of gold sink:

From the looks of it to upgrade to each additional slot for both sprays and emotes, the amount of gold will be:

Slot 2: 50,000g

Slot 3: 100,000g

Slot 4: 150,000g

Which works really well for me. Fernando has so many good emotes, I can’t be expected to pick just one! Speaking of Fernando though -

Please excuse the quality of this image but my BOY is using his SHIELD like a SURFBOARD! I don’t care if its Battle Pass exclusive, I WANT IT

...Okay back on topic. I’m not sure if you have to unlock these additional slots for each champion on their own, or if its a universal unlock yet - only PTS will tell. I honestly have enough gold that I’d probably be set either way though...we really needed a gold sink that doesn’t revolve around buying champion levels. I only buy champion levels if I want to unlock their talents, but nothing beyond that. No sir, I like to EARN my gold skins!

The other gold purchasable addition to the game is additional language announcer packs - 25,000g each. I think we’re definitely going to see someone playing champions of a specific nationality along with their respective announcer pack in youtube videos. So, Fernando with the spanish announcer pack for example. It just seems like an inevitable thing that’s gonna happen, haha

New Map, New Queues

So first off, the separation of TDM and Onslaught and the reintroduction of multiqueue are GREAT and I’m happy to see this happen. It looks like Snowfall Junction will also be added to the TDM queue, so that will be interesting to see how it works out. More importantly, the Rise of Furia event map isn’t going entirely to waste; I really love the look of the modded version outfitted for a classic TDM match, and the creation of points of interest with the spawned pickup that gives you a full ult charge sounds neat on its own as well. A sort of objective in an objectiveless game mode if you will.

The fact that the old Throne Area at the top of the Spire during the event will still be accessed from the custom match lobbies is just the icing on top.

I honestly would love to see more of an emphasis on new map additions over new champion additions in the future. We really are in sore need of new maps. Hell, I’d love to see the reintroduction of the test map queue just on its own.

Balance and In Game Adjustments

Fusillade Nerf: Both necessary AND welcome!

Cherish Nerf: I’m gonna miss that extra burst, but I can also see why this was necessary.

BUCC: It’s a bit of a mixed bag here, isn’t here? Self Sustain nerfed, but buffs to his ensnare as well. Then you have the reload changes; kinda makes me wonder if he’s one of those champs that’s going to receive yet another rekit later in the future because these tunes he always receives tend to be all over the place.

Bug Fixes:

Grumpy Bomb no longer deals 3x damage to Shields: AS A FERNANDO MAIN, THANK YOU

Overall audio fixes: these were a long time coming, I especially noticed the Mal’Damba one brought up.

Fixed an issue where Furia’s Wrings of Wrath Projectiles were sometimes tracking and moving through walls: Thank u lord.

Seems like a lot of map collision bug fixes went through too

Misc:

You know that thing where you’re making a Loadout, the queue pops, then you get sad because you can’t finish the loadout before the match? Now you can – until all the other players have accepted!

This is a quality of life change that I sorely needed considering how many times this has happened to me, lol.

Skins + Battle Pass

So the Battle Pass looks to have more concrete stuff this time around though they did up the buy in price - from 500 to 600 crystals. So, some skin reviews.

Crimson Serpent Mount

I actually kinda dig this mount; its nice to have another non-horse addition, and the fire trail effects are also neat.

Makoa – Akuma Skin

While the fact that there are elements that remind of Bowser is pretty fun to me, this is overall not a skin that suits my personal tastes. It feels too overdesigned, too cluttered, too clunky, too many unnecessary spikes everywhere. I guess I’m just not...too into edgy aesthetic skins though overall so I’m biased here.

Cassie – Dragoncaller Skin

When the visuals for her first dropped with the splash art for the new mount, I deadass thought this was going to be a Lian skin because of the hair and the royal vibe, but no it’s...Cassie. Honestly this feels more like Cassie cosplaying Lian more than anything, right down to the voice pack. Seriously the voice pack has HUGE Lian vibes to it, its the high born haughtiness. I guess if you’re into that, this is your skin. I do admit though, Dragon Ziggs is pretty cute, and the crossbow is alright.

Mal’Damba – Shadow Lord Skin

CONGRATULATIONS TO HI REZ FOR BEING COMPLETELY INCAPABLE SO FAR OF PUTTING OUT MAL DAMBA SKINS THAT I DON’T LIKE. This skin goes so against what kind of aesthetics I usually go for, it’s very “edge” but my snake boy pulls it off and I love him. The only downside is that the voice pack is very generic and is definitely outclassed by all of Mal’Damba’s other voice packs by far. It’s situations like this that really make me wish they added voice pack customization back so that I could equip his halloween voice pack with this skin.

Oh also who gave snek a knife?

If I get this battle pass it will be purely for the Fernando emote and this Mal’Damba skin, and I suppose the mount as well.

New Champion: Koga

Okay so visually? I don’t find Koga appealing at all. The colors just clash so much, especially that orange, and once again this is a character with Too Much Stuff and Clutter. Visually a lot with Koga gets lost to me; again, it’s just...too much. Sometimes, less...is more. As to his recolors, I do like the concept they’re continuing with in terms of recolors having slight tweaks to the model; in this instance, its the recolored version not including Koga’s mask:

It would be neat if we had multiple gold purchasable recolors for champions like we used to outside of masteries, but that ain’t happening anytime soon. That’s visuals though; kit wise, I do dig what he brings.

I think the concept of working off a resource meter for all abilities instead of using cooldowns is interesting, and his mobility looks super fun. While I am dissapointed that his claws serve no melee functionality outside of his ultimate, I do like the way their attacks tie in similarity with Zhins flame sword attacks. I was hoping for another weapon switch champion along the lines of Strix, but the way the claws function as a weapon switch is much more of a set time focused thing, since using your claws eats up resource meter. He has a talent right off the bat that restores energy when he uses his submachine gun, and if I had to guess that’s probably one of his talents that’s going to get a future nerf. Again, that’s just if I had to guess.

Seeing Koga’s passive wall climb ability and his dash is a bit dissapointing in some ways though, since much of his mobility is things people have suggested in the past for Skye in terms of a rekit. Before Koga, it was Skye that was our resident Ninja Themed champion. The woman wears kunais, uses stealth and smoke bombs, she’s clearly meant to evoke a stealthy ninja assassin in terms of how she operates. While we already know Skye will receive a visual reworking first before we see any rekit, its still going to be a hard pill to swallow for most Skye mains out there. Speaking of Skye, we did see her visual revamp teased during the Koga trailer:

I am NOT a fan of this wristbow redesign. If Koga is meant to evoke a more aggro ninja archtype, than Skye is meant to evoke a more stealthy one; besides that, Skye has always struck me as the more sleek and elegant type. This giant cumbersome crossbow she’s wielding here just DOES NOT fit the bill. Well, at least we know for sure that she’s still going to be purble (the lighting in these screenshots is affected by a firey background so its a bit misleading color wise).

I can also definitely see Maeve mains being salty though; while Street Justice has been the talk of the town, that talent really has been the ONLY thing going for her, as her base kit and mobility has been nerfed multiple times. When you look at Maeve’s large cooldowns and compare them to Koga’s resource meter, its quite the disparity. What I’m trying to say is, Maeve and Skye mains should stand in solidarity against this injustice and maybe commiserate in a bar over drinks later I guess.

I feel pretty positive about the new additions overall though, and I’m kind of looking forward to this patch which is nice for a change. Let me know your thoughts too!

Why Whiteboard Videos Are So Effective

For decades whiteboard videos have been used to make a variety of kinds of videos, from sales to explanation. In such a rapidly changing field how have whiteboard video clips stood the years? The key to success lies in the small details.

Whiteboard movies give viewers a unique viewing experience through the scene and characters created with a pencil. In essence, they make you are able to watch each moment unfold while the narrative progresses and, most of the time it feels like you're in the middle in the narrative.

Whiteboard videos consist of three parts comprising a white background drawing hands and a continuous black drawing. This implies that they are simple and simple to comprehend. In conjunction with the fact that whiteboards provide a constant reminder the classroom (the environment where we learned the most complex of concepts) it's impossible to not see why whiteboard videos are an easy to comprehend. According to experts, they offer the most straightforward and efficient method to convey complicated concepts to your students. What's the psychology behind the whiteboard video?

How effective are whiteboard videos?

There has been a lot of debate regarding the psychological effects that come from whiteboard animation videos. One researcher named the Dr. Richard Wiseman, conducted study through comparing whiteboard animation videos against the classic "talking-head" videos.' After studying these results, the researcher came to the conclusion that whiteboard video held a significant 15% advantage in terms of memorability in comparison to their "talking-head" counterparts. What is the reason for this?

It's easy. The first thing to note is that whiteboard videos are enjoyable. It's a proven fact that our brains retain the most information when studying is enjoyable. Additionally, they are easy. Therefore, it's simple to get away from the complexity of ideas and be absorbed by simple explanations. In essence, whiteboard videos can be great tools for education.

1)Script

This is the script to be used in the film. Because scripts tell the story to be followed in the future it is essential to write a good script. What's the real difference between a poor script and one that is effective? A good script will explain three essential factors: the who the how, what, and the reason.

What problem do your target audience have to face?

What does your product do to help solve the issue?

What makes your product top-of-the-line or the most effective?

When a potential buyer sees the video, they're trying to find a solution for their issue. This is why it's essential to frame your message in a way that your customer believes that you are aware of the root of their issue (you don't want a physician to insist on treating you leg even though your arm hurts is it?). It is then that the script describe the way the product you offer addresses the specific issue and convince your customer that you are the most appropriate solution for the problem.

2)Storyboard

This is the second stage of your animation process. A storyboard is table that details every aspect of your video (in details).

In contrast to storyboards in other kinds of animation whiteboard videos' storyboards are distinctive and require focus on the details. This is due to the fact that, in whiteboard video, each frame is linked to the following. Because one of the primary elements of a whiteboard video is drawing with a hand the scenes as a whiteboard animator can't afford to make too many changes without the danger of being unable to maintain the consistency which distinguishes whiteboard video.

3) Illustration

As mentioned earlier whiteboard storyboards need an intense focus on detail. They must keep the simple style in mind and still explain the concept in its entirety, no matter how complicated. Therefore, your images should be designed with exact proportions and be placed in the correct places. In order to convey the message of your presentation, it may be necessary that you zoom into and out of distinct sections. This allows you to have the possibility of providing more details without using too many changes. Since this process is quite complex, it's recommended to collaborate with an experienced artist or animator to ensure the video will be exactly as you would expect.

4) Whiteboard Animation

In the past this process was done through the use of a professional illustrator drawing the sketches. Technology has transformed the field. In the present, based on the software you're using, you are able to select and then include a drawing hand in the video. Additionally, you can create a unique video by adding a characters in your video. This can significantly improve quality and appeal of the video. However, be careful not to overdo it.

5) Voiceovers, Music and Sound Effects

This section determines the time to the clip. Actually, it is a key element in the process of creating the storyboard because the animation's transitions have to be in sync along with the narration. But, it's usually included last in the video. To ensure the authenticity and efficacy in your voiceover, it's crucial that your narration is done by an experienced speaker , so that they can accurately capture regional dialects, accents,, and languages. This will allow for a better relationship with your target audience. The most important thing to consider is that the audio and the sound shouldn't be in competition with the voiceover but should rather create an enjoyable listening experience.

How do you get your video's rights?

It is by far the most crucial element. Without any characteristics, your whiteboard video could appear dull and uninteresting. But don't worry about it, there are ways that you can make your video more distinctive.

1.) Make sure to include your logo colors

This is the best method of claiming your video. For example in the event that Facebook created whiteboard videos however, it could lose some of its appeal and impact without Facebook's famous blue color. However, do not use a full color pallete. The video must always feature a white background (otherwise it's not an actual whiteboard animation video).

2.) Create a visual representation with your intended audience in your mind

It is equally important. One reason why whiteboard videos work so well is because they let viewers be a involved in the story. But, if the characters don't have any connection to the audience in any way it could be difficult to convey your message to the audience. Promoting your product and attracting new customers to visit your store can be accomplished by educating customers through animated videos, such as whiteboard animation. What is a whiteboard animation video? In Whiteboard animation Services, you will get a style of video that is designed to look like the content is being hand-drawn on a school whiteboard or white background. It's a particularly popular way to communicate more complex information because simple graphics are easy to understand.

You can now create a captivating whiteboard video to promote your brand. Be sure to make it easy with high-quality and concise The video is meant to be enjoyable.

Best PS5 Accessories For 2021: PlayStation 5 Headsets, Controllers

The PlayStation 5 launched with a range of first-party PS5 accessories, from the DualSense Wireless Controller to the Pulse 3D Headset and PlayStation Media Remote, but while each of these can enhance your experience in different ways, they're not the only accessories for Xbox worth picking up for your new console. Brands like Logitech, Razer, Samsung, and SteelSeries all have quality products designed specifically for the PS5 (or that will work via backwards compatibility), and now that the PS5 has been on the market for some time, you can find a PS5 accessory for pretty much any specific need at this point. With that in mind, we've rounded up the very best PS5 accessories worth picking up so far, from standard controllers and headsets to flight sticks, racing wheels, external storage, and more.

For more recommendations on PS5 software and accessories for playstation, check out our guides to the best PS5 games of 2021, plus the best PS5 headsets and controllers beyond just the first-party options.

Sony's PS5 DualSense controller is a fantastic upgrade over the PS4's DualShock 4, reshaping the controller to give it a more comfortable, ergonomic shape and more easily visible light bars on either side of the touchpad. Its standout feature is the haptic feedback that, when fully utilized in compatible games, creates immersive vibrations that really let you feel what's happening in the game. Adaptive triggers work in tandem with this as well to further enhance PS5 games, offering different levels of resistance in the L2 and R2 triggers to simulate the feeling of, for instance, drawing back a bowstring. This can also be used to make different weapons, like guns, feel different when switching between them. Overall, the DualSense is an excellent controller that feels kind of magical when its features are fully utilized, and now that two new colors, Midnight Black and Cosmic Red, are available, there's good reason to pick up a second one just to have for multiplayer or switching to while your first controller charges.

Sooner or later, you're probably going to want to pick up a charging station for your DualSense controller, and this official one from Sony can charge two at once, meaning you'll always have a controller ready to go when you get that low-battery notification. It takes a little getting used to, but when you slide a controller in, you'll hear a slight click and see it light up, letting you know it's connected and charging. In terms of convenience, this is easily one of the best PS5 accessories to pick up as soon as you can. No one likes messing with a charging wire.

Surprisingly, the PS5's first-party headset option, the Pulse 3D, is on the more affordable end of the spectrum for quality headsets; however, this is paired with a build that does feel somewhat flimsy, cheap, and easy to break. On the flip side, it delivers rich audio using Sony's proprietary Tempest 3D AudioTech, which really brings surrounding environments alive in PS5 games like Spider-Man: Miles Morales, letting you hear subtle sounds and get a better sense directionally of what's around you. It also supports both wireless and wired connectivity for not only PS5 but also PS4, PC, and Mac, with a battery life of up to 12 hours. At the end of the day, it's still one of the best PS5 headsets to buy, especially if you don't want to break the $100 mark, but there are even better third-party headsets we recommend that fall between $150 and $200.

SteelSeries headsets have been very popular for years, and the Arctis 7P is its next-gen headset designed specifically for PS5, though we like it for its versatility, as you can also use it with PS4, PC, Android, and Nintendo Switch thanks to an included USB-C dongle. Featuring 2.4GHz wireless audio and a low-latency connection, the Arctis 7P also pairs nicely with the PS5's 3D audio tech with excellent sound quality for such a versatile headset. Like the BlackShark V2 Pro, it's also a more durable and comfortable option than the Pulse 3D, with a lightweight steel frame and elastic ski goggle band for an adjustable fit. It also has a retractable, bidirectional microphone for clear voice capture and a 24-hour battery life to last during all-day gaming sessions.

For those planning on streaming their PS5 gameplay on Twitch or YouTube, the PlayStation HD camera is one essential accessory that'll make the entire process a breeze. Featuring 1080p capture, the PlayStation HD camera lets you record yourself and your gameplay by using the DualSense's share button, and by using the PS5's built-in background removal tools, you can add yourself to gameplay videos while streaming in picture-in-picture mode. You can crop the background or even lose it completely if you have a green screen.

The Razer Raion has long been one of our picks for the best PS4 controllers, and it still works great for playing backwards-compatible PS4 games on PS5. Though its layout may look strange, the Razer Raion is optimized for fighting games, and its six-button layout resembles what you'd find on a fight stick. It has a fantastic, clicky D-pad and is lightweight enough to comfortably hold in one hand, letting you tap on the rows of buttons piano-style. However, it also has digital buttons for every DualShock 4 shoulder button and trigger if you prefer to use it that way. Also convenient is the fact that you won't need to switch between the Raion and a more fully-featured Ps5 controller faceplate for things like character customization, as it lets you map the D-pad to the left and right analog sticks. Though the Razer Raion isn't for most PlayStation games and certainly not every type of gamer, for fighting game fans, it's a budget-friendly option that will take your experience in games like Mortal Kombat 11 and Tekken 7 to the next level.

The Victrix Pro FS is on the expensive end of fight sticks, but for hardcore fighting game fans, it's worth every penny, and it's forward-compatible with PS5. The Victrix Pro FS has a premium build made of durable aluminum and authentic Sanwa Denshi parts, its buttons are satisfyingly clicky, and the joystick is equally satisfying to use as well as accurate in its movements. In addition to all the essential fight stick buttons, it has several added features including three programmable buttons, customizable audio, lighting adjustments, and an easy access door for swapping out components. It's also a travel-friendly stick with a removable joystick, a plastic organizer to wrap your cables around, and handles for carrying. Costing as much as a console, the Victrix Pro FS isn't for everyone, but if you're serious about having the best fighting game experience on Ps5 dual charging and competitive play, this is an excellent investment.

As with fighting games, you can certainly use your regular old DualSense with racing games, but if you're passionate about the genre and want a more realistic experience with games like Gran Turismo Sport and Assetto Corsa Competizione, a racing wheel and set of pedals is designed for just that. Released in August 2020, Logitech's next-gen racing wheel, the G923, has everything you need for the best racing experience on dongle Ps5. Its TrueForce technology delivers next-gen force feedback with a physics engine that's directly connected to the wheel for heightened responsiveness. Essentially, the wheel synchronizes with your gameplay to deliver a more immersive and realistic experience. The downside is that right now, TrueForce is supported for only a handful of games: Grid, Assetto Corsa Competizione, iRacing, Gran Turismo Sport, Showrunner, and Dirt Rally 2.0.

The Logitech G923 also features a programmable dual clutch launch assist to get you off the starting line cleaner and faster, a progressive spring brake to simulate a pressure-sensitive brake system, a built-in rev indicator that can show you when you're redlining, and a whole set of customization options via Logitech's G Hub software.

Most flight sticks out there are designed for PC, but with flight sims having a bit of a resurgence recently thanks to games like Star Wars Squadrons and Microsoft Flight Simulator, we're starting to see more options for consoles. The official PlayStation-licensed Thrustmaster T.Flight HOTAS 4 is an affordable option that, crucially, is also widely available to buy. It'll work great with games like Star Wars Squadrons and Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown.

A great entry-level flight stick for those just dipping their toes into the flight sim genre, the T.Flight HOTAS 4 features adjustable joystick resistance, a detachable throttle, and a dual-rudder system that operates by rotating the handle with an integrated locking system or by the progressive tilting lever. The flight system has five axes, 12 action buttons, one rapid-fire trigger, and one multidirectional hat switch for navigation/panoramic view.

The democratization of music production has meant that just about anybody can make music from their personal computer. As a result, there's a lot of great music coming out from people who wouldn't have been able to create anything 10 years ago.

That said, whatever personal DAW (digital audio workstation) you choose as your preference, you'll need to use plugins in order to procure certain sounds that you'll need for your music. The Complete 2021 Synth & Sound Software Bundle from Applied Acoustics sets you off immediately with a collection of 10 software kits that include psychoacoustic effects, piano tones, strumming patterns, sound effects, arrangements, and more.

Specifically, you'll get the Objeq Delay filter, which grants effects ranging from echoes to modulations to loops. On top of that, the bundle includes a variety of arpeggiators from composer David Kristian, a collection of folk loops from Celine Dion's keyboardist, and a bunch of other stuff that, in total, almost completely encompasses every possible preset or filter you could ever want for creating your own music. You can go through the different plugins yourself, but suffice it to say that musicians have raved about the different features included here. Whether you are an accomplished musician, like many of the contributors to this bundle are, or a novice beginner who is looking to dip your toes into an ocean of different DAW software, there's something of value for everyone who purchases this expansive bundle.

To put the cherry on top, you can get the Complete 2021 Synth & Sound Software Bundle from Applied Acoustics for just $30. If you've bought music plugins online before, you know how expensive they can be, so the value of this deal stands out even more at an average price of just $3 per individual software pack within. Start creating at a higher level and invest in your musical career with Applied Acoustics.

The Beginners Guide to Selling Ebooks Online (With Real-Life Examples)

Are you thinking about writing an ebook to monetize your skills?

Then your eyes are in the right place. Ebooks, just like their printed counterparts, have been around for decades. But in 2020, they are poised to grow like never before.

By 2025, analysts expect the ebooks industry to grow at an annual rate of 3.7%, reaching a projected market volume of US$19,997 million.

The opportunity is loud and clear. With the right attitude and tactics, you can take advantage of it and be one of the many entrepreneurs who make a living off their skills and knowledge.

Today, you will see how you can start selling ebooks online and make a living with everything you already know.

Research, Research, Research

The barriers to write and sell an ebook are few and easy to overcome. The challenge isn’t whether you can sell an ebook, but whether you have something worth writing about.

To write an ebook, you need a skill, experience, or knowledge others are willing to pay for. The best way to know if your book meets these criteria is by applying a simple rule of thumb: if anyone has ever paid you (or someone else) for the skills you have, you can use it in your ebook.

Think about it this way: if you are a designer who makes money creating logos, then the fact you have made money with your logo design services is proof that you can make money with an ebook about that topic.

Another way to check the potential of your ebook is to look for competitors. If others are writing about the same topic as you, then it’s a good sign.

Go to Amazon and search for your skills. Let’s say you were a content writer like myself, and you were interested in teaching others how to write content.

There are 20,000 books about the topic of content writing, with many successful authors in the results. If you were interested in writing about that topic, then this is already a good sign.

Once you have verified the viability of your ebook’s topic, you want to define a specific angle. You can sell an ebook on writing, but you can make it about grammar, storytelling, journalism, etc.

To find the right angle, you want to dig deep into the audiences your ebook will cater to. This research will also help you later when you decide to promote your ebook to this audience.

Reddit and Facebook groups are sites that beam with activity in specific niches from every topic imaginable. In our example, this could include the subreddit r/Writing or groups like Writing tips for beginners.

Read through dozens of posts and see what people talk about. Look for patterns in the pains and problems that arise. The more people explicitly wish for a solution, or the more they complain about a problem, the more attractive your ebook will be.

1. Create the Ebook

Writing and creating an ebook worth buying is a topic that could take a whole new post. But without a well-written, well-designed ebook, your chances of succeeding become smaller, so we can’t ignore this step.

The bad news is that writing an ebook can take months of hard work before you can decide to launch it to the public. But as James Scherer said before, you can hack your way through your ebook creation process by reusing existing content.

Tim Ferriss, the author of the popular book 4-Hour Work-Week, wrote his latest two best-selling books, Tribe of Mentors and Tools of Titans, based on his popular podcast.

If you have ever published content about your ebook’s topic in any format—written, audio, video, etc.—you can take this content and build an outline with it. You can then add more ideas, take out unnecessary ones, update them, and improve them.

Before you publish your ebook, hire an editor to fix any grammatical mistakes and clarity issues. An editor will make your ebook look professional.

Then, hire a designer to create a cover and a template for the rest of the book. An ebook cover will also showcase a professional attitude, raising the perceived value of your ebook.

2. Collect Leads

Before you even start editing your ebook or designing its cover, you want to start working on its marketing. You want to launch your ebook to an engaged audience and not to the sound of crickets.

The first step to building an audience involves collecting leads on your website from potential buyers. Two tactics you can use to do so are pop-ups and quizzes.

Pop-ups have earned a bad reputation, but they work. They allow you to capture the visitor’s short attention span and offer them something of value. Among the many options available, you can use:

Exit-based pop-ups trigger when a visitor hovers the top part of the site, indicating they are about to close the tab.

Entry-based pop-ups trigger as soon as a visitor enters a website.

Time-based pop-ups trigger after a predefined amount of time.

For example, Wishpond uses an entry pop-up that leads to the pricing page.

Consider offering the reader the opportunity to get your ebook before you launch it to the public. Better yet, offer them a discount.

Quizzes are an alternative way to collect leads. Unlike pop-ups, quizzes have the visitor assess themselves on a topic of their interest. For example, Netpeak Software, an SEO software company, offers a quiz that helps SEO practitioners see whether they prefer “white-hat” or “black-hat” SEO techniques.

After the visitor finishes the quiz, they can get the answers in exchange for their email address. The more interest your quiz generates, the larger your email list can grow.

Whatever list building tactic you choose, you want to create an automation campaign for your leads. You can use a marketing automation campaign to notify your subscribers about the launch of your ebook, among other news related to your ebook.

3. Create Landing Pages

As you finish your ebook and build an email list for its launch, you want to create a landing page. The landing page will work as the base for your entire ebook promotional campaign.

Compared to creating a website from scratch, which involves designing a web template, setting up your hosting, and so much more, creating a landing page is easy. With the help of a landing page builder, it’s only a matter of knowing what you want to say rather than how you can bring the page to life.

Your ebook landing page should have, at least:

A clear, powerful headline.

Concise and persuasive copy.

An image of your ebook’s cover.

A button—i.e., a CTA—that motivates your visitors to buy.

A money-back guarantee.

The design of your ebook landing page doesn’t have to be fancy. Take a look at the landing page Kai Davis uses to promote one of his ebooks:

Above the fold, you see the benefit of the ebook—“Selling Discovery-as-a-Service”—a short explanation of the ebook, and a brief, exciting introduction to the topic. The rest of the landing page includes an explanation of the ebook’s premise, price, testimonials of past customers, and a risk-free money guarantee.

You can also create a landing page as a tool to collect leads before and after your ebook launch. Traditionally, marketers use landing pages as a B2B lead generation tactic, where you offer a free ebook in exchange for your visitor’s email address.

In your case, you can offer a free chapter to entice your readers. Nathan Barry has used this tactic to generate leads for his ebook, reporting conversion rates between 2.4% and 5.2%.

4. Promote Your Ebook

The final step is where the fun begins. There are countless ways you can promote your ebook. Below, you will see that merit some consideration.

Share It on Your Website

The first and most crucial channel where you can promote your ebook is your website. In it, you can communicate not just what your ebook is about, but who you are. People will want to see more about you—your background and experience—your website will do that for you.

Within your website, you can promote your ebook with one of your pop-ups, as described above. You can even add banners and static opt-in forms about it.

Mark Manson, a blogger and best-selling author, shares a link to the books he has published right on the homepage. He adds more links to them throughout the site.

You can also make the ebook a part of your overall content strategy and create articles around the ebook’s sub-topics, promoting the ebook in between.

You can even write a post to promote your ebook, before or after the launch. Amy Hoy, the writer behind the blog Behind the Stacks, promoted the pre-launch of her latest ebook in her blog.

Find your highest-traffic posts and pages and add a banner or link to your ebook. If you have promoted other products before, replace the links to the landing page of your ebook.

Share It Online Communities

The key to any successful marketing campaign is to be where the buyer is. For you, this means the online communities where they hang out.

Use the communities you found previously and use them to build trust in the community. Share your content, offer free advice on the topic of your ebook, or simply help others. This can take months, but as you build clout in a community, people will start to follow you.

Chris Guillebeau, the author of several books on entrepreneurship, has used AMAs (ask me everything) in popular entrepreneurial communities as channels to promote his latest books.

Online communities will force you to continue to research your audience and create rapport with them. By the time of the launch, the people in the community will trust you, making it easier to promote and sell your ebook.

Run Facebook Ads

Facebook’s advertising network is one of the most scalable and effective marketing channels where to promote your ebook. Facebook gives you the option to add ads in the sidebar or news feed of its users, targeting the exact demographics you want to attract.

With the help of Facebook Audience Insights, you can target pretty much any audience you want. For example, this is how an audience interested in content writing would look like if I were to run ads to them:

Add the Facebook pixel to your website, especially your landing pages, so you target your ads to the people who visited your ebook landing page. You can even create lookalike audiences, targeting those who are similar to those who visited your landing page.

A Facebook advertising campaign can get costly fast if you don't track its performance closely. To avoid burning your cash irresponsibly, create a custom URL for your ads, and follow the effectiveness of each campaign and ad you run. Optimize your budgets to avoid overspending in the wrong ads.

With Facebook ads, you can directly promote your ebook, leading visitors to your landing page, or you can offer a free chapter before you ask them to buy it.

If your ebook is expensive—something that depends on your pricing strategy—you can consider the latter. Those who don't know you may not be willing to invest over $50 to buy an ebook whose author they don't know. But if you price ebook like an average Amazon book—think under $20— then you can lead your visitors to your ebook's landing page directly.

Start with a small budget, targeting a small audience—especially if this is the audience who visited your landing pages. There’s much more to mastering Facebook ads, so take your time to learn the most effective ways to use it.

If you don’t see positive results or see that the costs are too high, you can try some alternatives to Facebook ads. They are all equally effective, depending on your goals and budget, but if you want to diversify your advertising profile, consider trying:

Twitter ads.

Instagram ads.

Pinterest ads.

Summary

With your knowledge and skills, you can create and sell an ebook. All it takes is the right mindset and the right tactics. The process laid out here shows the overall process you need to use to launch an ebook that you can profit from successfully.

And with the right tools, like the ones Wishpond offers, it will be easier than ever to launch and promote your ebook.

Just how to Create a High Conversion Sales Video Clip (Component 1)

Absolutely nothing converts like an excellent video.

There are plenty of researches showing how efficient video clips go to turning visitors into customers. Definitely, video has actually been among the most valuable additions to my advertising toolbox and also I have actually been doing video clip for a long period of time.

However exactly what goes into making a high-conversion sales video clip? Exactly how do I tackle creating these video clips by VidSell and also what aspects are consisted of to see to it the video is involving, interesting as well as results in sales?

These are questions I obtain asked a lot as well as below is the most extensive solution I can give in a blog-post layout.

What you find below is a really detailed breakdown of my most recent sales video (one I made for a pre-release of a Thrive Themes product). The video clip was exceptionally effective, based on the conversion prices that were attained on this deal.

This is some extremely in-depth, nearly unfiltered behind-the-scenes insight right into just how I compose advertising and marketing messages. This is not fancy, not made for rapid usage and not dumbed down for blogging and very easy social shares. Just for the major. [/thrive_text_block] You can watch the full video by clicking on the web link listed below. Nonetheless, the individual components I'll be speaking about are all playable separately (simply click on the video clip strip heading photos), so I advise you watch each part, read the breakdown of it and after that maybe re-watch it.

Wish to see how they all meshed? View the whole video clip right here.

Component 1: I' ts Everything about the A

Focus, Interest, Desire, Action. AIDA is an advertising and marketing formula mentioned so usually, it is becoming a platitude. That does not make it less useful, though.

The first part of the video clip is a caution message and also it's everything about getting the visitors focus as well as stimulating their interest.

Harmonizing Act

Creating this component was a harmonizing act, due to the fact that I do not want to make the caution message as well severe or too tacky. In the sloppy waters of the "generate income online" niche, cautioning messages are usually utilized at the beginning of videos. The warning is normally extremely significant as well as totally severe on VidSell. Not to mention that it typically additionally includes some over-blown promises thrown in for good step.

Unlike this, I maintained my warning message short and the tone playful. My objective is to stimulate a "what is he yet?" response.

Favorable Organization & & Knowledge

For the layout, I attempted to make the slide look comparable to the "FBI Caution" titles that you in some cases see in motion pictures. This is a calculated choice. The association I'm going for is that what comes after that is something the visitor is enthusiastically eagerly anticipating seeing (like a new film).

Component 2: Preparing

The objective of the 2nd part is to establish the foundation. By the end of this component, the visitor ought to get on the very same web page as me and we ought to both recognize and also recognize what we are and also aren't talking about.

Rhetorical Questions

I open this area with a question: "Do you love WordPress?"

When you encounter a concern, your mind immediately engages and also you can't help however address the concern in your head. Rhetorical questions such as this can be made use of as a sly means to virtually require the audience's brain to react.

Dividing the Chaff from the Wheat

One more vital work this component has is to remove one of the most interested audiences in the audience: I make it clear that what I'm about to present is for individuals who use WordPress and also particularly people that use it regularly.

Whenever possible, do the filtering at an early stage in your message. This does two essential points:

For people who aren't in your target group, VidSell avoids losing their time. Think of if you enjoyed a tasty, 10-minute video about a brand-new item of software application, just to discover at the actual end that it's constructed for WordPress ... and you do not use WordPress. I 'd have wasted you time and also you would lose several of your rely on me. In every future message, you would certainly be supporting on your own for one more frustration.

For individuals who remain in your target group, it grows their engagement. When you involve a point that clearly claims "this is for you, however except those other individuals", you come to be extra committed to the message.

Optimal acoustic conditions, indicating fans should be as quiet as feasible as well as audio insulation from other cubicles ought to be close to perfection.

IT specialists in simultaneous interpretation field created systems that can work alone or in combination with conventional translation hardware. Synchronised interpretation applications are mobile systems that stream real-time sound on audiences' phones via regional wifi or audiences' mobile information. The audio speaker's stream is transmitted to interpreters that then, with an unique broadcaster or standard consoles, stream their analyses.

Analyzing is a resource language . One of the most typical 2 modes of translating are synchronised analyzing, which is done at the time of the exposure to the resource language, as well as consecutive interpreting, which is done at breaks to this exposure. Translating is an old human activity which precedes the development of composing.

9 Must See Internet Marketing Tips

After A Few, Highly Actionable And Highly Effective Internet Marketing Tips? Here Are 9 Of The Best That Have Been Gathered Together By Squirrly SEO.

1/ How To Create The Perfect Instagram Post (7.4M Posts Researched)

With more than one billion active monthly users, Instagram is definitely one of the most popular social media platforms; one that you should use to promote your business and brand.However, the fact that a lot of people use Instagram doesn’t guarantee your success. From the types of posts to the hashtags used, to the caption subject and length, every detail must be carefully thought through and measured. So, how does the perfect Instagram post look like? To come up with an answer, Social Insider looked at 7,433,417 posts, and their study has revealed a few key ingredients for creating the most engaging Instagram posts.  Here are some of the internet marketing tips main takeaways from the study: Publish more carousels. Carousel posts were shown to receive a higher engagement rate per post - up to 5.13%. Keep your captions nice and short. Writing short captions of under 10 words increases the average engagement rate per post to 3.13% for carousels, 2.54% for images, and 2.35% for videos. Add more emojis. Data shows that the best performing posts have 20 to 24 emojis. That may seem like a lot, considering that most brands tend to only use one or two emojis/post. However, by using more emojis than most of the brands out there, you can stand out in people’s feeds. Create more contests, giveaways, and DIY posts, as they perform better than regular posts. Source: Social Insider

2/ Changing One Word Led To 46M Registrations (A Case Study)

Ten years ago, as consumers were just starting to discover digital photography, James Currier, a four-time CEO and co-founder of multiple venture-backed companies, helped create an online photo repository. However, despite the initial enthusiasm, Currier found it challenging to pick up new users. For their main call-to-action, they decided to go with “store your photos”. But they noticed that the word store was triggering people’s protectiveness, sparking user’s motivation to defend and collect.So they decided to experiment with a new call-to-action and replaced the word Store with the word Share.  ‘STORE your photos’ became ‘SHARE your Photos.’This made people feel like there were others involved in the concept, so suddenly the user psychology changed - as did the motivation.Sharing is an inherently social activity that most of us associate with affection and acceptance. It’s something that simultaneously triggers users’ altruistic motivation, as well as the motivation to show off.After making this seemingly small change, Currier's site dramatically boosted uploads per user, the rate at which users were sharing photos, and signed up 46 million people in just six months.“Just by changing that one word, we were able to motivate each person to send it out to 120 of their friends,” says Currier.Source: Reforge

3/ 68% Improvement In Conversions

As a marketer, pain is one of your greatest weapons. Of course, it’s not about causing your potential customers pain. It’s about leveraging the pain they already feel. Whether it’s anticipatory pain (the pain of something negative happening in the future), loss aversion pain (the pain of losing something) or current pain (something negative is happening), you can leverage it.  One way to do that is in your landing pages. Make sure that as soon as they land on your page, visitors are reminded of their biggest pain points. Then show how your product or services helps make their pain go away. It works! Instapage used a loss aversion headline to create a 68% improvement in their landing page conversions.Headline A: “Pinpoint and Eliminate Duplicate Content. ”Headline B: “Avoid Losing Traffic, Rankings, and Money.”By switching from a benefit-oriented CTA to one that instead focused on the pain of loss - losing rankings, traffic, money - they improved conversions by 68%. Source: Crazy Egg

4/ 86% Of Consumers Want To See This On Social Media (Research Study)

Today’s customers enjoy learning about brands through social media; there is no doubt about that. Companies know this, which is why it’s becoming harder and harder to cut through the noise and stand out on social media. One way to do it is by prioritizing authenticity. According to a recent study by HubSpot, 86% of users prefer a brand with an honest, authentic, and personalized social media presence.Internet marketing tips on how to build brand authenticity on social media: Share stories about your brand that connect with readers (this can be anything from a short story about the company’s history or a personal story about an employee) Focus on personal interactions. Comment on positive customer experiences and reply to any possible negative comments in a way that helps consumers see your organization as a team of real people dedicated to serving them. Share original images instead of generic stock photos. Post pictures of your team; behind the scenes images from office events, and so on. Source: Small Biz Genius

5/ 7.32% More Views On YouTube (Case Study)

By adding closed captions to their YouTube videos, Discovery Digital Networks (DDN) saw an overall increase of 7.32% in views for their videos.The greatest gains in views were seen during the first 14 days after adding captions, with a 13.48% increase. If you have a YouTube channel, consider adding closed captions. Closed captions are similar to YouTube subtitles.However, unlike subtitles, they not only supplement for dialogue but other relevant parts of the soundtrack – describing background noises, phones ringing and other audio cues that need describing. Both subtitles and closed captions (CCs) are valuable because they help open up your content to a larger audience, including deaf or hard of hearing viewers or those who speak languages besides the one spoken in your video. Plus, closed captions are indexed by YouTube search and boost your traffic.If you’re interested in adding your own subtitles and closed captions to potentially get more views, here’s a step-by-step resource from Google on how to do it. Source: 3playmedia.com

6/ Increase Dwell Time On Your Site (SEO Booster)

Dwell time is the length of time a person spends looking at a webpage after they’ve clicked a link on a SERP page, but before clicking back to the SERP results. Not to be confused with bounce rate or time-on-page. You can see why a metric like dwell time could be very important in determining searcher satisfaction (something Google cares greatly about).If you have a content-rich page, you’ll want people to stick around and absorb all that information after they land on your page from Google. It’s one of the ways you know that visitor finds the content on your page to be interesting and relevant. However, keep in mind that some people like to read articles. Others like to listen to someone else read them. Using a tool like Amazon Polly - a speech-recognition tool that will read the entire article out loud to visitors - can help you engage both groups to increase dwell time.If you’re interested in this but don’t want to use Amazon Polly, you can also check out some alternatives here.  Note! Dwell time must be considered in a mix of many factors, so it shouldn't be the only focus or reason you do something. Generally speaking, you should focus on broader improvements for a website that increases user engagement, and dwell time may increase as a result.Source: SingleGrain 

7/ How GrooveHQ Grew Their Customer Exit Survey Responses By 785%

Learning the reasons why your customers leave can be quite painful sometimes, but it’s always incredibly valuable.Whether they stop their service/product subscription, cancel their accounts, or unsubscribe from your mailing list, knowing why someone chooses to leave provides a way to continuously improve and move forward. However, it’s not easy to collect feedback and get people to share valuable insight. Alex from GrooveHQ knows this firsthand. He wanted to know why their customers cancel their subscription, so he decided to give customer exit surveys a try.He started sending emails to every customer who canceled their subscription: Subject: "Quick question"Body: "... Why did you cancel? ..."The result: almost nobody completed the survey (a whopping 1.3% survey completion rate). On top of that, most of the data they collected was useless. Then, he made a small change.Instead of “Why did you cancel?”, he asked, “What made you cancel?”The change led to a 19% response rate.One possible explanation is that “why did you cancel?” sounds somewhat cold and distant, putting the reader on the defensive, whereas “what made you cancel?” doesn’t have the same accusatory tone.Source: Groovehq

8/ Optimize Content For Featured Snippets And Get More Traffic

The holiday season is upon us, so for today’s hack, we want to share with you a quick SEO improvement you can make in less than ten minutes and actually see your traffic go up.  The hack: Use tables wherever it makes sense in your content. For example, say you have an old blog post that’s got some good information and data in it. You could go back to it and see if there’s a way to put that information into an easy-to-read table.Why? Because that’s going to help you out with SEO, in part because it’s going to help you land more Google featured snippets. A featured snippet is a search response shown at the top of a search engine results page that contains a summary of the answer taken from the page. There are 4 types of featured snippets that you’ll come across: paragraph, list, video, and Table.Here’s an example of how a featured snippet looks like:

The featured snippet shows up right under the paid ads, but before the rest of the search results. This result position is known as “position zero,” and it’s definitely a great place to be. So, go through some old posts that contain data and add some tables. It’s likely to help you snag some featured snippets that you didn’t have before.   Also, as you continue to create new blog posts, ask yourself if it would be better for the reader if it was in a table format. If it would be better for the reader, then Google will want to put a table out there as the snippet.  That’s how you’ll win that much-coveted position zero and most likely improve your rankings outside of the snippet as well. Give these internet marketing tips a try.  Source: Income School

9/ 22.3% Higher Engagement Rate - One Word

Landing in your customers/leads’ email inbox is almost like stepping on a landmine. Most emails will be deleted without ever being opened, and some won’t even make it out of the spam folder.Only the strongest emails will survive in this fragile and crowded place.However, it’s becoming increasingly hard for businesses in all niches to create strong emails that stand out from the vast majority of promotional emails that their audience receives on a day-to-day basis. Writing captivating subject lines remains one of the most effective ways to make sure your emails survive in the Inbox. But while it’s safe to assume that email recipients will prefer certain words over others, what exactly those words are is a lot harder to guess. SendGrid (email delivery platform) analyzed 5 million unique subject headers in nearly 18 million emails and here’s the internet marketing tips they highlighted: Subject lines referring to “yesterday” and “tomorrow” have higher engagement rates (20.5% and 22.3%, respectively) than “today” (11.8%). By using Tomorrow in your subject line, you can get a 22.3 % Higher engagement rate. Subject lines with “soon” have higher engagement rates (21.9%) versus subject lines referring to “now.“ Email subject lines that use the word “free” have significantly lower engagement rates (13.1% versus 17.2% for subject lines without “free”).

Backstory

Sound Bite Fight. Loot. Survive. Learn.

Executive Summary Neverending is a twin stick, rogue-like shooter where you will explore and fight your way through randomly generated dungeons in order to uncover the mystery as to why you are trapped in what seems like an endless loop. No dungeon playthrough will ever be the same as you get various buffs that will alter the way you approach different encounters and you have three different classes to choose from.

Inspiration I love rogue-like games. I have played Dead Cells (Motion Twin, 2018), Binding of Isaac (McMillen, 2011), Enter the Gungeon (Dodge Roll, 2016), Hades (Supergiant Games, 2018), and a multitude of others. I wanted to create a rogue-like experience that you could legitimately take with you in your pocket. The general inspiration came from the fact that a lot of these have a fairly large time commitment in one sitting if you want to make any real progress, which isn’t ideal for being able to play it while you are in a doctor’s office waiting to be called back for an appointment. So, the general design is based on this aspect: short spurt style dungeons with a boss at the end that will save all progress along the way so that if you have to put your device down, you can come back knowing that all of your progress is saved. That really was the inspiration to Neverending. In addition to the overarching, top level design I wanted the game to have an old school feel to it, so I opted for it to be two-dimensional and utilize pixel-based artwork. When it came to the sound effects, I wanted them to be pleasing to the ear and satisfying. The music needed to instill some adrenaline, so it felt like some intense orchestral music would be my best choice.

Capstone Game Scope The original scope that was planned for my capstone was a bit too large for what I would have been able to accomplish in the compressed time frame with my level of experience with game development. So, the overall scope for the capstone ended up getting scaled back to what is essentially a fully functional, albeit limited, game that acts as a phenomenal prototype for what the game can expect to become provided I give it more “time in the oven.”

The capstone game scope is comprised of one biome with two enemy types and one boss inside of that biome. The player has the choice between three different classes (knight, rogue, mage) to choose from where the attacks and statistics are similar but there are subtle differences. All of them throw projectiles at the enemies. The knight has no special abilities and simply does a high alpha strike style of attack. The rogue’s attack does no upfront damage but apply a damage over time effect to the enemies that it hits. The mage’s attack is a fireball that does less initial damage to the enemies but has an area of effect explosion that will also damage nearby enemies. The two different enemy types are a melee skeleton and a ranged goblin wizard. The melee enemy utilizes an A* pathfinder to move toward the enemy and, once in range, attacks the player up close. The ranged enemy stays in one place and simply shoots at the player. However, there is a timer in place that will cause the ranged enemy to teleport to a random location inside of the room. The dungeon is procedurally generated outside of the menu and boss level, so the overall layout is different with every run. The boss is comprised of two different attacks (a whirlwind attack and an AOE projectile spread attack) and one overall phase. The boss will randomly perform an attack toward the player. The overall game is setup to be run repeatedly with the goal of unlocking all of the lore. If the player dies, their progress and stats will be reset back to zero to facilitate the rogue-like elements to the general design. The player will power up with buff potions and be able to carry two inventory items for use as he/she progresses through the dungeon rooms.

Ideal The capstone game scope is essentially a stripped-down version of what the ideal game scope would be. Ideally, the game would include multiple biomes with more enemy architypes than just two. I think that having 10 biomes with 5-7 total enemy architypes per biome. There would be approximately 3 times as many possible room layouts as what is included in the game in its current form. There would also be 2-3 bosses per biome. Bosses would have 3-5 unique attacks and 2-3 overall phases that the player would have to react to. Speaking of the player, there would be a much larger cast of classes for the player to choose from where the differences are inherently more unique. There would be melee and ranged classes with plenty of differences to enable them to stand apart from each other. The movement and shooting would be more refined as well. In its current state, the movement and shooting are locked to variances of 45 degrees. I would want to open this up and have an omnidirectional input approach. In addition to having lore unlocks, there would be other unlocks and rewards that would drive the player to continue playing. For example, there would be more traditional achievements and then what could be equated to a trophy case where the player could visually see different objects that the player has acquired from killing bosses. There would also be a statistic portion where the player could see how many dungeon runs they’ve made, what their longest streak has been, how many hours they have played, etc. I feel that this is the ideal visualization of what Neverending could be.

Demo Screencast

  The Critique: What went right

Design & Aesthetics The aesthetic design really could not have gone any better in my opinion. Granted, I am no artist, so it was nice to be able to get onto the Asset Store to find some pixel-based art assets. Some of the inventory items are mine and I edited some of the other art assets. When you just apply a light source, instead of having it full bright, it really conveys the sense that you’re in a dungeon! So, as a general whole I would say that the aesthetic design was an overall win.

Project Management It took me a little while to get used to Underdog, but once I had a good handle on it, I feel like it did a great job of keeping track of the time spent and keeping track of the overall milestones that I was working on. There at the end when I was crunching, I used Trello as well to really have a fast view of what was immediately important for me to work on. I do believe that I will be utilizing Trello again in the future. In terms of my completion, while I had some missteps, I am can confidently say that the progress that I made was consistent and adequate during development.

Development Overall development of the game was handled well. While I was learning both Unity and C# while I was creating this game, it all was pretty intuitive for me to pick up on to implement the functionality that I needed to implement. The biggest achievement that was achieved was implementing the A* algorithm into the game. In fact, instead of utilizing a standard array or list to sort through all of the nodes to calculate the fastest route to the player, I implemented a heap. That took the calculation times down from an average of 19ms to an average of 4ms.

Testing The good aspects when it came to testing the app was the ease in which I was able to put it up on Google Play. Because of that I was able to easily share it to people to try out to give me feedback on. Once I figured out how to use Unity’s profiler, it was a great way for me to simply verify that my game wasn’t too resource intensive. Overall, there isn’t too much to add here about the testing.

Business Model/Plan The positive aspect about the business model is the fact that there is a monetization method in place. It wasn’t the planned implementation, but after looking at different ways that the game could be monetized throughout development, it only made sense to include a means of letting the player revive in a rogue-like game by watching an ad. The player may not want to give up their progress and watching an ad then benefits both parties.

The Critique: What went wrong

Design & Aesthetics This is the aspect of the critique that has given me the most issues. Overall, I am super happy with all of the design and aesthetics inside of the game. So, I think that the only aspect that went wrong was simply running out of time. I would have loved to add light sources to the portals and then make the torches and candles light up once a room is cleared. Those were (and still are) on my list of things to accomplish, but when it came time to turn in the final build, there were more important things to fix and implement.

Project Management What went wrong with project management also is what went wrong with development. So, I’ll outline the problem here, go into depth as to what failed with the project management element to the overall development, and then I’ll focus in on how it failed inside of the actual development in the next section.

Overall, when I received the green light for development, it was for a game that was completely outside of the scope of my abilities as a novice game developer. So, at some point in month two of development it became apparent to me that I wasn’t going to be able to implement everything that was slated. This drastically altered the project management plan I had in place to get everything implemented. That meant having to completely remove everything that was currently applied in my Gantt and starting from scratch in that regard.

Development The development issue came in that when it was apparent that I simply didn’t have the skill level to be able to churn out the amount of features that I had originally planned for, I needed to figure out what to develop that would provide enough value to the game so that I could remove the other elements. This made some of the systems that I had already put in place inside of the game utterly pointless for the sake of this turn-in. Overall, it was rather difficult for me to really pinpoint different elements of project management and development that I could call a failure. I suppose another aspect would be that when I first started to implement the game systems into the game, it was coming from a novice’s understanding. As I progressed through development I discovered that there were infinitely better ways of implementing some of the features that were already in the game. However, because that would have required me to go back and restructure almost everything that I had put in place, I chose to continue with the overall direction that I had taken in the beginning so that I could keep the progress moving forward. It isn’t the smartest or best implementation of different features and best practices were not utilized.

Testing While the testing model that I used for having other people test the game and get their feedback to me was so very helpful, the test code that I attempted to write a couple of times throughout development was an utter failure. This is something that I now truly realize that I don’t have a good grasp on. It’s something that I really need to focus in on post-graduation as writing tests for my code is something that will be extremely helpful to learn, not only for my projects, but also for any employer that I may have in the future.

Business Model/Plan The primary issue that I ran into was having to cut the in-app store from the game due to the fact that I wasn’t going to have the amount of time to be able to implement it. This WAS the primary means of monetization for the game. When I objectively looked at all of the remaining requirements after I restructured the overall approach to development, it didn’t make sense for me to keep the store in instead of some other, more important aspects to the game.

Summary

In the end, while the overall differences between the planned version of the game and the finalized version are quite different, both versions still hold the same core principles that the overall design was attempting to reach. The majority of everything that went wrong can be attributed to my inexperience and necessary design changes that cropped up during development.
