A click, and it’s interactive

Tuesday 3 June 2025

All you need to make a video interactive, is a click. Seriously, that’s all it takes: a click and a jump. Well, that and a timeline. I kinda forgot about that part, but if you make a video that jumps all over the place, you need a way to see where you’re going. And I know that you’ve all seen a timeline before, but making one that feels good to use is actually pretty tricky. So, when you play around with the latest version of the rich video editor, I would really appreciate some feedback on that part: does the timeline make you feel good.

Anyway, what can you use this for? Well, for starters, you can use it to create interactive tutorials that explain how to create interactive tutorials.

Now that you know how to do that, you can also use it to create an exciting choose-your-own-adventure video. For example, you can tell a tale in which you present your viewers with the harrowing choice of whether you put in the tea bag before the water, or after.

That is so exciting! Isn’t it exciting? I’m so excited!

If you want to see the interactive videos in action, you should head over to the rich video website. And, of course, you can also create your own rich videos. So exciting!
