Sometimes you just need to kick back and scroll through some YouTube. Why not learn something while you’re doing it?
We asked around the office to see what content creators our team thinks are making inspiring, top notch educational content out there.
Here’s a list of channels we enjoy and you should check them out too!
Kurzgesagt – In a Nutshell
Experts at taking some of the biggest questions in science and distilling them into easy to understand videos with stunning, distinct and colourful animation.
Crash Course
Interested in Economics? Botany? World History? They’ve a course for that. This channel offers well-produced deep dives into a bunch of different subjects, all broken down into easy-to-digest, short videos for learning at your own pace.
Game Maker’s Toolkit
Here’s one for the gamers! Mark Brown does an excellent job of breaking down the complexities of video games design in a thoughtful and easy to understand way. His video on accessibility was particularly interesting to us as video producers!
Climate Town
Climate Town takes the well worn “host speaks direct to camera” format and elevates it with a combination of location shooting and clever, humourous script writing. Well researched videos about environmental issues could easily veer into dry and boring territory, but Climate Town packages it all in a way that’s a joy to watch
Wealth Simple
While not exactly an entire educational channel, this video series from Wealth Simple is one of the best examples of content that supports an organization’s clients via learning. Informative and approachable with a dash of levity, this is a gold standard for knowledge content.
