Reimagining Course Intros with 3D Motion
There’s more than one way to begin an eLearning course; and sometimes, sometimes the best way isn’t with text content, but with atmosphere. I’ve always been inspired by how airline safety videos set the tone before a flight begins. They take a routine moment and turn it into something memorable through motion, storytelling, and design. In this short navigation intro, I demo how to bring that same prelaunch energy into your course. With 3D motion and audio cues, you can instantly draw your learners in, before a single concept is even introduced. See it in action here: https://www.redesignedminds.com/Audio/story.html I designed this to spark engagement, proof that learning experience design gets fun when you experiment with 3D, soundscapes, animation, and visual storytelling. Here’s a quick tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=62MRlM1iz0MDesigning Immersive Phone Conversations in Storyline
Ever have two characters talk in a training module, but it still feels flat; even with speech bubbles, audio, and triggers? This (FREE) Storyline phone conversation template changes that. Whether you're designing for sales, compliance, healthcare, or support, it creates real, layered convos that feel like you're eavesdropping on a call. Animated phone effects Realistic voiceover dialogue Transparent APNG waveforms (way better than GIFs!) Custom triggers for pick-up/end call Clean, modern layout with animated text Watch how it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMpUcYJRNnE Preview the demo: https://www.redesignedminds.com/Discuss/story.html Download it free (attached below) If your training includes a conversation, this is how you bring it to life.Mindfulness
What do you do when your brain hits a wall? This project explores small, mindful actions to help you reset and reconnect. I used a soft pastel palette and flat icons to create a simple interaction where each tip gently morphs into view. The visual transitions are built around consistent layout and position changes to simulate a calm, flowing experience—no motion paths, just smooth shifts from one moment to the next. 🔗 View the Demo About Me Jayashree Ravi Curious about more e-learning innovations?

Simple interaction where you can click on different managers to learn about them. For the pop out effect I decided to go with a selfie of each person and then used a morph transition to the information slide. I used use AI to generate the images and background and I used AI Assistant to generate the placeholder text. See the demo here. About Me I love helping people learn to use the Articulate software to meet their needs at work. I especially like to help those new instructional designers who are trying their best to get a handle on things. I regularly contribute to the training team's blog where we assemble all sorts of tips and tricks. Follow it to stay up to date. I post every Wednesday to Articulate's company blogwhere I share more general instructional design tips. I used to write the Rapid E-learning Blog. Still lots of good tips & tricks in there.

I like the look of the avatars in this dribble account and the way the shadows were inside the box while the character popped out. See the example here.

Taking a breather after some intense experimenting with the morph transition! Here’s a simplified version of the classic shell game (I think that’s what it’s called?). I remember watching it as a kid — older guys would play it on the street, trying to earn a bit of extra cash. They’d use matchboxes, shuffle them around with a hidden object underneath. If you guessed right, you’d win a few coins. If not... well, better luck next time! I called it "Find a dog" for the purpose of this challenge. Find the Dog
