The Storytelling Tour (Throwback videos!)

When Rance's book, Instructional Story Design, was published in 2020, Vyond saw a natural partnership. "Our users know how to produce animated videos, but they need storytelling skills."
The Storytelling Tour, an 8-week tour of Rance's book, was born. Over 1,500 instructional designers attended the sessions. Here are six of the intro videos to the sessions. Enjoy these snapshots of the principles of Instructional Story Design...and animated Rance...before Vyond had a beard option that looked like his!
