Explainer Video: How to Secure Your Social Media Privacy in 4 Easy Steps

Overview

This explainer video teaches learners how to secure their social media privacy settings in four simple steps. It breaks down a technical online safety task into a clear, visual, and easy-to-follow process.

​

Purpose / Intended Audience

This video was designed for teens who use social media but may not fully understand how privacy settings protect their personal information and reduce online risk.

​

Process

I wrote a short instructional script and organized the content into four clear steps. I used Powtoon to create simple visuals, character-based guidance, and visual cues that support the narration without overwhelming the learner.

​

Outcome

The final video makes social media privacy settings easier to understand and apply. This project shows my ability to simplify a technical process into a short, learner-friendly multimedia experience.

​

Design Reflection

One challenge was simplifying social media privacy settings without overwhelming teens with technical information. I focused the video on four essential actions and used visual cues to reinforce each step. This project reinforced that effective instruction often depends on carefully deciding what learners need now and what can be left out.
