Storyline templates/backgrounds
Curious how people usually create / acquire their Storyline backgrounds. Do you create from scratch, have your graphics department assist, or?
Looking for ideas. Thanks!
Outside of generic stock content, I'd say that the backgrounds are usually contextual to the content.
From what I see, most backgrounds are what I'd say are contextually decorative. For example, business courses, may have an office type background. Or medical course, some sort of waiting room.
Those are easy enough to find in content library. If you need something that is contextually accurate, then you probably need to build it or have someone build it for you.
I like to look to games and apps for inspiration on designs, layouts, and color schemes. For example, if I was building a medically themed course, I'd look at how web template sites create their look. Or I'd go to a creative design site like dribbble and see how real graphic designers approach those contexts.

I've been using generative AI tools increasingly, each of these are samples of Rise courses which use images created with ai- you can generate photographic, geometric repeating textures, illustrations, using prompts that describe what you want.

What a great idea! I will play with that. Thank you!
Cool. Thanks for sharing the examples. I do the same. I find that working with Midjourney lets me create more specific imagery than what I'd get with stock content which is never going to be specific enough.
