In a corporate world where deadlines loom and meetings linger, a hearty laugh can be the secret ingredient that transforms the entire workplace. Incorporating humour into internal communications lightens the mood while fostering engagement, creativity, and community amongst your employees. Unfortunately, humour isn’t exactly on the rise in the modern workplace. Artificial intelligence (AI) has seemingly permeated every corner of the corporate world, and internal communications have become even more stiff and impersonal than ever. However, when study after study shows the beneficial effects of humour in the workplace, it’s time to “un-AI-ify” your corporate comms!

Animation offers a unique platform to incorporate humour into internal communications and more easily conveys scenarios that can be difficult to depict through live-action videos. Animated characters can exaggerate expressions and situations, making the content funnier, more relatable, and much more entertaining. This is a big part of why animated explainer videos from professional studios like Sliced Bread Animation are so popular. Visuals have a lasting impact, sticking in our memories better than the spoken or written word. When we combine animation with humour, we can convey key messages more effectively and help the information resonate with employees.
