Slick callout images

Jan 20, 2016

I am creating demo videos of a healthcare application. The demos need to look slick and modern and ultra professional. I'm having trouble finding suitable graphics to use for callouts/buttons etc. Can anybody recommend a good resource? I'm not good enough at creating graphics to make my own.

Hi Helen! Can you say  more about what you mean by callouts? If you're looking for icons there are a lot of great options like iconmonstr.com icons8.com iconfinder.com and more. You can use the by themselves or combine them with simple shapes like these I made: https://tmiket.wordpress.com/2014/12/24/powerpoint-skitch-style-icons/

Hi Mike, thanks for the reply. I'm looking for simple images that I can add text to and animate to slide into the edge of the screen to describe a step or explain what is happening in the screen recording, like a 'tab' I guess. I only really want simple shapes but so much out there is fun and funky. Which is great but not right for this project. I need high-tech, clean & scientific. I'll check out your suggestions, thanks!

Hi Helen! Have you had a look through our course assets hubs? There might be some downloads in the buttons and icons sections that you can repurpose. 

Here are a few nice options: 

For most of those, you'll find an .eps file as well as the .png images, so you can edit and customize as needed. I hope some of these are helpful for you!

These icon button sets that Kelly share are also great. If they don't work for you "as is" you can replace the icons/images with your own which you can find in places like: 

You might have better luck with the "science-y" stuff you're looking for. 

Let us know how it works out?
