Video Background

Jun 17, 2016

Anyone know how I can remove the black background from my video clip?  I just want the video to show with no background as it sits on the slide.

Thanks
Brenda

Hi Brenda,

Perhaps you will want to look at editing the video outside of Storyline to see if you can include transparency? Another option would be to look at if you're seeing the placeholder image for the video or Flash file in the slide, as it can appear as a white, black, or transparent rectangle. Although the content will work as expected when you publish, this can make it difficult to see the placeholder while you're developing your course in Storyline.

To make it easier to see, right-click the placeholder and select Set Poster Frame, then browse to an image file to use as your placeholder image.

Tip: If you configure the video or Flash file to start when clicked or triggered, learners will see the poster frame image in your published course.
