The prompt behind the picture
Hand-drawn picture of a simple pond and forest ecosystem: a bright yellow sun in the top left corner, one leafy green tree on the left, a patch of green grass along the bottom, a small blue pond on the right with one orange fish visible in the water, one brown deer standing on the grass eating, and one small bird flying above the pond. Only these six things, plenty of empty space around them. Nothing else in the picture. Coloured pencil and watercolour marker, clean black ink outlines, warm off-white paper, no text.The picture came from an image model; any finished illustration works the same way, including one you drew. Use the prompt as a starting point for your own topic.
How this clip was made
The picture above was made with an image model from the prompt above; WhiteboardAnimation.ai then drew it, stroke by stroke, as the clip at the top of this page.

Ecosystem, step by step
A script to read over it, timed to the drawing: the lines go down first and the colour arrives on the last beat.
- 0:00Line artAn ecosystem is a place where plants, animals, the weather and the land all work together, like a bubble of life.
- 0:12Its living parts are plants, animals and other living things, like this tree and the grass.
- 0:24The non-living parts matter too, like rocks, how warm it is and how much water is in the air.
- 0:37Animals depend on plants for food and shelter. The deer eats the grass, and the fish and the bird live here too.
- 0:49Every part depends on every other part. If it gets warmer or colder, different plants may grow, and the animals have to adapt or move away.
- 1:01ColourEcosystems can be very large or as small as a tide pool. The whole surface of Earth is a series of connected ecosystems.
Where this ecosystem animation fits
Use it in a science lesson on living things and their habitats, to start a topic on nature and the environment, or as a short clip in a geography video. The same process turns your own diagram into a clip.
