In short
Freeze the snap and draw the plan first: from the palette pick the arrow and draw the blocks, and everything on the frame opens your video. Then press the record button and talk; pick the path tool and draw the motion while you explain it, so the drawing and your voice land in the video together. Press stop, go to Export, and the breakdown is ready to send to the team. Everything stays on your device. iPhone and iPad.
Step by step
Draw the plan first
Freeze the snap and draw your idea first. From the palette, pick the arrow and draw the blocks. Everything already on the frame is in the first shot of your video.
On screen: Palette → Arrow: draw the blocks before you record. They open the video.
Record and draw live
Then press the record button and talk. Pick the path tool and draw the motion while you explain it, so the drawing and your voice land in the video together.
On screen: Record button → talk and draw: the motion path goes in live, with your voice.
Stop → the video
Press stop and the breakdown becomes a video. Go to Export, and it is ready to send to the team before the next practice.
On screen: Stop → Go to Export: the breakdown is a video, ready for the team chat.
