How to add video and text side by side in Rise

I would like to  build the text narrative to either the right or left of the video created in Peek instead of text only showing at the bottom.  When the video starts, if the viewer doesn't have a headset or speakers, they will not be able to follow along with the video.  Instead of having the text at the bottom, is there a way to display it either to the right or left of the video with the ability to scroll down either automatically or by the user?

  • hey Phil—so nice of you to respond! so if our programmer follows your instructions in the source code—once it is created in that course can it be saved as a block template or do we need to modify code for each instance? Your work is absolutely beautiful by the way!

      Thanks Francesca, and yes unfortunately it needs to be done on each individual course after export, as we are using the block id number to get the desired layout. When authoring your course in Rise just make sure the video block comes just before the text block that you want to be side-by-side.

  • Hi! I have 3 shorts from tiktok I'd like to place in one page side by side, is this possible in Rise now?

      Hi Marion,

      There isn't a way to place videos side-by-side in Rise 360, but you can do this in Storyline 360 if you'd like to consider building your course there. You can place videos in a 3-column layout in a Storyline 360 course and then embed the finished product to make it available to your learners.
