No Time to Sketch? No Problem!

Here Susan Yeates shares strategies to overcome common barriers to sketching such as time constraints and lack of inspiration, encouraging viewers to find small, manageable ways to include sketching in their daily routines. The editing supports the instructional content between direct-to-camera shots of Susan sharing her tips from multiple angles throughout her home art studio and fun on-screen moving animations that emphasise certain points, keywords and emotions. Furthermore, the use of smooth transitions and clip overlays help maintain focus on the content, creating a calm and approachable viewing experience.
