Producing videos with manim
Published:
I often refer students to the excellent YouTube channel 3Blue1Brown by Grant Sanderson who produces videos that explain various mathematical concepts. To produce these videos Grant wrote the Python library manim and released it for anyone to be able to use. The learning curve is a little steep at first but with the help of the documentation written by the manim community it soon becomes straightforward to create your own videos.
This video here was my first attempt. After generating the video file with manim I used the iMovie application on a Mac to edit the various scenes together, record the voice over and add the background music. I have only dabbled with manim and plan to produce more videos when time allows.
