Animated Video

Create a stop-start video

This template can be used to add interactive videos that are split into parts - or keyframes. This means that the video will play and stop at specified time intervals. The user will need to tap the screen/click to continue the video.

In the example video below, the keyframes are set so that the video will stop after 5 seconds, and again after 9 seconds.

How To Use It

Insert your video (.mp4 and 16:9 ratio) and set one or more keyframes. For each keyframe, you need to specify the time (in seconds) when the video must stop. To add your keyframe, you must select the "+" icon.

It is recommended to keep video size below 10MB to avoid exceeding the story size limit of 100MB.
