Interactive video (award-winning project)

This project was designed to engage salespeople in using proper sales techniques and technical inspection skills.

Check the demonstration.

We employed an interactive first-person video approach. Instead of prioritizing clicks, we focused on a web series format, similar to Netflix episodes. To enhance realism, we simulated interactions with customers and products, and the use of video allowed us to showcase details of tools, environments, materials, and even appropriate body language.

At the end, rather than completing a linear course, students will have tested their decisions and learned from successes and mistakes in a safe digital environment, enabling them to repeat the experience and make different choices while comparing the consequences of each action.

In this tutorial I explain my production process. 

Thank you!

    Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m thrilled to hear that you appreciate the project and see the "video-game" quality in it. I completely agree that creating engaging scenarios can really enhance the learning experience.

    I’d be happy to share a quick outline of how I achieved this in Storyline! I’ll put together a brief overview of the key steps and techniques I used, so others can apply similar concepts to their own courses. Thanks again for your encouragement!

        Hi, just uploaded a tutorial with the making of. Check the post above.

  • This is so cool. I love that this has a sort of "video-game" like quality to it. Such a simple way to infuse engagement into almost any concept just by putting into a scenario that feels "real." Thank you for sharing this! 

    I bet some other folks would love to see a quick outline of how you achieved this in Storyline so that they can apply it to their own courses if you're down to share.
