Best way to embed short and wide videos without large headers/footers in RISE?

Hey E-Learning Heroes!

I am trying to embed short and wide slim videos throughout my RISE course, but when I embed them using the media upload block or the embed (Vimeo) block, the video is housed within a large white box with 16:9 dimensions. This creates weird spacing issues and defeats the purpose of the slim style videos.

I was trying out the new custom blocks, which are very exciting, and it was promising, but the video option there is upload only and I cannot figure out how to enable captions. 

Video dimensions: 1920x493 px

Any ideas??

Thank you!

    Hi LMCKelseyLarson​ You can use an iframe tag to lock in your video size. Here's an example and example iframe code.
