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?

  • 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.

    Good news its very possible. It took a couple steps to get the iframes to display correctly, I'll probably make a vid if anyone is curious, and this will probably work with other media shared posts like instagram etc.

  • Greetings!
    I didn't see anything on the roadmap, so I'm curious to know if there are any future video placement enhancement options coming up for Rise 360. 

    I have used Tabs and Accordion for placing videos and they both work great. I've found many times; it is more impactful to show a video and content side by side.  We have videos that don't have sound but could be showing a key feature in a process or how to navigate to a new process so it would be great if the video just played to the left or right of the text either in a Rise lesson or in a microlearning.  Thanks.

      Hello JenniferTeegard

      Thanks for reaching out! I appreciate you sharing how modifications to video placement will impact your workflow and course design in Rise 360. We do not have any updates to share at this time. I've gone ahead and shared your insight with our product team. We'll be sure to update this thread in the future with any news and updates so that all are in the loop! 

      Have a wonderful start to your week! 

  • Seems like an incredibly popular add-on. I've created video and text side-by-side slides in PPT then exported them as an MP4. Works fine and can be saved as a template. Not exactly what everyone wants, just another bandaid. Any thoughts on prioritizing this functionality on the development workflow? Thanks.

      Hi MatthewRosenber,

      Thanks so much for sharing your workaround with the community!

      I've shared your thoughts with our product team as well, and will let you know when we have an update.

  • This needs to be on the road map. It's the same thing as Image and Text (side by side) but instead of image file, video file. Seems like it should be a simple build that everyone in the community would use a lot.
