Choosing a story size

Hi Heroes. I'm curious as to what story size folks use and your rational. I've set my default to 1920/1080 but I get the feeling most others go smaller or 4:3. Care to share?

 

  • Hi Jennifer,

    I tend to use the 16:9 because I like for the slide to fill most of the player. I also work in medical education, so I'm using a fair amount of text and images (EEG, MRI, etc) on the slides so I like that it leaves room for white space. I hope this makes sense!

  • 1280x720 most times or this may seem odd 1280x820 for desktop to give 100m pixels of on slide controls and still have a full width video.

    Sometime 1920x1080 but the larger the course the larger the media and 1280 gives a nice balance between loading times and a good experience.

      Thanks Phil - I like the idea of the added 100m for controls, though my projects don't often have a ton of video, I'll keep that in mind for next time.
