The story
From manual assembly to a storyboard first
This is a small education story from one student project, not a university-wide software rollout or endorsement. The project needed a marketing promotional video and a clearer way to plan the message before production.
The old way
Before ngram, the project came together through Canva and FFMPEG. That tool mix could produce a video, but the hard part came before editing: deciding the script and planning the structure.
The switch
Ease of use
What changed
The biggest change is speed in the early planning work. SNair described the new promo-video process as much faster and more accurate than before, with hours of time saved. The response did not give a clean publishable number, so that time savings stays qualitative.

The outcomes
Less planning drag
The script and plan no longer have to start from a blank page.
Storyboard before production

Faster promo work
