Best way to play multiple videos in sequence from the one slide in storyline

Hi I'm totally new with Storyline.  I have a slide which has fly in paragraphs that explain a point and then click on the button to play a video (there are 3 paragraphs and 3 corresponding videos)...
storyline 360

Hi Sharna

Welcome to ELH forum

You could place each video on a separate layer and then add

  • trigger on base layer to show layer 1 when video completes on base layer
  • trigger on layer 1 to show layer 2 when video completes on layer 1
  • layer 2 will have the final video

if this doesn't work for shout and help someone will try and help you.

    Hi Wendy
    Thanks for your help! I'm wondering if I've made a simple task more
    complex...
    This is what I've got in my mind:

    1. Slide opens with first paragraph fly in text then button for play
    video 1
    2. Next second paragraph flies in text then button for play video 2
    3. Third paragraph flies in text then button for play video 3

    Is this easy enough to do or should i just create 3 separate slides... one
    for each video

    Thanks again

    I am having the same issue. When I tried this then none of my animated text would show on the new layer. (If I copy/paste the animated text on the new layer than if would effect the timing of my text.
