Headshots buttons with mp4 audio link

Mar 24, 2021

Hi All, I am trying to try create a headshot link to a short audio message from a content expert in RISE. Is there a way to do this or will I have to create in power point, import to Storyline and then upload into RISE? 

 

Many Thanks, 

Dave

 

PS Would prefer to create directly in RISE if possible.

Hey Dave! Are you looking to include a headshot image with the option to play audio? If so, you can use an image & Text block and an audio block together to create that effect. Here's an example of what that could look like. 

If you're looking to do something else, can you please share a little bit more detail?

Thanks so much Sarah,

Yes I have suggested similar with a quote block above or else cropping headshop into square as we want to put a series of quotes in from the same person so need to keep image small. Ideally it would be a button of the person’s face, about the size of the button stack button. I have seen this as an example lesson on Articulate 360 (created in power point I think) which the learner would like in to hear content expert speak (audio). I have a feeling I need to create this in storyline and then upload into RISE course.

Best Wishes,

Dave

Hi Tom,

This is the blog I was looking for, thank you so much ! I skimmed through, can you use this button to play audio in RISE? It looks like a button stack but I think I have established that audio recordings with this shaped button would have to be done in Storyline and imported. Is that correct ? 

Best Wishes,

It's a button stack. 

Here's an easy way you can do something similar. I added my image to a PPT slide, added audio, and saved as video.

There are three versions in the example. The second one I left more white space on the bottom to accommodate the player. The third one I added text since there's no video/text block in Rise.
