Younger Characters
I am developing courses for a younger audience, and really need younger characters for this. I see it's been a feature request for years. Does anyone use an alternative source of images beyond Articulate? It seems a bit bizarre that this feature request seems to have been pushed back for so long.
The more specific one's request is for certain character traits, the more likely it is that filling the request will require licensing characters from a company that focuses on that service, buying images from a stock photo agency, or even paying for a custom photo shoot.
Here are two sites that provide cut-out characters:
• https://elearningart.com/
• https://www.elblearning.com/create-learning/asset-library/cutout-peopleNote: Cut-out characters from other sources are put into Storyline via Insert > Picture (not Insert > Character).
any free stuff out there or at least VERY cheap? Asking for a friend....
These sites offer free cutout characters: Freepik, Vecteezy, Vectorstock, and paid subscriptions - see their terms for usage, license, legal. Quite a few of the biggest stock sites do offer 'cheap' subscriptions. The added bonus with a subscription is that in general the company *always check their terms* takes legal responsibility for copyright violations etc., if your usage is within their terms.
Hi Viv!
Thanks for sharing that you'd like to see younger characters in our Content Library! We just released new characters in December and are continuing to add others, so I will share your request with our team to let them know that you'd like to see young children included in the selection. I'll update you in this discussion when I have an update to share.
Agreed! I am developing courses for teenagers in high school and need to use their peers in scenarios. Please add me to the list of course developers with this immediate need. Thanks!
I would like to renew this as an immediate need!!!
