Let’s be honest, static icons can make your eLearning feel lifeless. Why settle for dull when you can add smooth, lightweight animations that grab attention and enhance learner engagement? At CraftUXD, we develop APNGs (animated icons) that Instructional Designers can effortlessly drop into their slides, instantly leveling up their development work.
Unlike static icons, APNGs maintain crisp quality with transparency, making them a perfect fit for Articulate Storyline, Rise, and beyond. No animating, no hassle, just plug, play, and impress. Watch this quick tutorial to see how APNGs work within Storyline.
How They're Made (But You Don’t Have to Do It)
We craft these APNGs by designing vector assets in Illustrator, animating them in After Effects, and exporting them using a specialized plugin. Sounds like a lot? You don’t have to do any of it, we’ve done the heavy lifting for you. Just drop them in and watch your course come to life.
Take a look at how we used this in our AML Use Case, seamlessly integrating animated elements to enhance learner experience.
