Any Size - You can set the height and width to any value you like, or the system will use the videos you upload to determine size. You can also set the border width to any value. Any Color - You can set any of the following colors: Border Color, Controlbar Foreground, Foreground 1, Foreground 2, Background, Highlight Foreground, and Highlight Background. Any Language - You can use any language from english to Chinese to Arabic in your script. Unlimited Segments - Your video can contain from 1 to a million video segments, so you can make it as complex as you need. Any Media - A segment can be a video, an image, a flash animation, an audio, or even just plain text. Transparent Background Support - Allow your videos and choices to have a completely transparent background, for better integration with other parts of your website and webpage. Accessibility Options - You can enable close captioning, oversized fonts, and compatibility with Screen Reader technology. By default, a number of other features that make a ClicFlic interactive video are enabled, including hot keys for all user input, tab stops for all user input elements, and natural tab orders. Faciliates easy Section 508 compliance. Section 508/Accessibility Features Demonstration Unlimited Choices - When you present a choice to a viewer, you can set any number of choices for them to choose from. Choices Can Appear Anytime - Choices can appear at the beginning of a segment, in the middle, or at the end. You can also set different choices to appear in the middle and at the end. Choices Size, Positioning, and Color Control - You have complete control where choice links or buttons appear within your video. This enables your video characters to point to choices when they appear, creating the image of tight integration. You can also control the separation between various choices, to highlight a particular choice or separate different kinds of actions. You can also customize the color scheme for any single choice, and you can control the size of the text that appears in a choice. Of course, you can use images or animations instead of text if you want for any choice. Choice Inputs from HTML - Full API for controlling your interactive video from other parts of the webpage. You can send messages to stop, pause, start, and to activate any viewer choice. You can also set 'blank' viewer choices, so that no choices appear over the video, but other parts of the webpage can be used instead. Mouseover Choices - You can set choices to appear anytime the viewer mouses over the media window. Button, Link, Image, Animation, or HotSpot Choice Formats - You can have the choices appear as buttons, images you upload, animations (flash) you upload, simple links, or choices. Form Elements Choices - Rather than choices, you can present any number of form elements to the viewer. Text, checkbox, and pulldown menu (select list) elements are allowed. Pulldown menus can have any number of choice options and can be set to allow the viewer to add their own choice if the desire. Values entered in any text field are captured and available through the monitoring features (below). You can also set initial values for all elements, including use of state variables (below). Designate any or all fields as 'required.' Set specific response options to activate when various fields are left blank. Include an optional skip button. Additionally, you can use any input with the text matching feature to determine the next response to show the viewer. Form Pre-Fill - Optionally, allow your interactive video to store and remember form field inputs, so that a person does not need to repeatedly type in his/her name or email every time a new interactive video is started. External Form HTTP Post - In addition to normal form posting back to the ClicFlic servers, you can designate any form choice to automatically post the user input to a URL that you specify. This is very useful for automated capture of customer data for contact forms, newsletter subscriptions, and other items required and automated or immediate response. Salesforce.com Integration - You can designate that the system report viewer data automatically into your Salesforce.com account upon any form submission. Any Choice Background Opacity - You can set the opacity of the choices to any value (0-100%) so that the viewer can see through to the media, or not. Automatic Choice Selection - You can set any choice to become the default selection after a specific amount of time. This way, the video will continue (if you like) even if the user does not interact. Multiple Start Segments - You can create different start segments and have the system choose randomly, or select based on whether this is a new visitor or a return visitor. Automatic Segment Replay (with offset) - You can set any segment to replay automatically if the viewer does not respond. You can also set an offset so that the restart begins at a different point than the original play. This allows you to have the character appear to be waiting for the viewer to act without freezing. Previous/Next Navigation - You can enable previous/next navigation to allow the viewer to backtrack within an interactive video. Buttons for next/previous can be placed in various locations on the media screen as well as on the control bar. Replay Feature - You can allow the user to replay any video segment if they need to view it again. Click For Me Feature - Have lazy users? You can give them the option of allowing the computer to click for them, so they can sit back and watch their interactive video unfold. State Variables - You can define up to three state variables, which represent values that are tracked throughout the interactive video. These values can be incremented when a user selects a specific choice and the value can be used to control when a choice is presented, or to select which choice is selected by the user, and even which response is presented after the user makes a choice. You can elect to show the value of each state variable to the user, either for all segments, or for specified segments. When showing the value, you can show the value as a numerical value (with units you define), or as text, or as a graphical display. Text Matching - When the viewer makes a choice using a form element, you can select the next response by matching against the text of their input. The text matching algorithm allows any number of match options and uses a percent-match approach to select the right response to show. Viewer Comments - You can set any choice to also allow the viewer to make a text comment in addition to their choice. Feedback Segments - Great for training - you can attach a sidebar video or segment to any segment in order to provide some coaching or other information to the viewer before they make their next choice. Quality Controls - You can set the video datarate of the videos to manage quality vs bandwidth. Media Control Bar - You can elect to show or hide the video control bar, which appears at the bottom of every segment. More Info Link - At the end of the interactive video, you can set a link the viewer can click on to get more information. Interstitial Media - If you want to play an advertisement video prior to starting the interactive video, you can embed that right into your interactive video. Post-Video Media - At the end of an interactive video, you can show the viewer a final video segment that is dependent on the outcome segment they reached. This way, you can end the video by telling them their outcome, then gently direct them to a next step. External Hyperlinks - Any choice can direct the viewer, either in the current window or in a new window, to an external URL. Duration Control for Static Media - When you present response segments that contain static media, like text or images, you can manually set the duration of the segment, or rely on the internal duration algorithm instead. Outcome Points and Types - You can assign points to viewers or categories to viewers depending on the outcome they reach. Media Window Click Control - You can direct what happens if the user clicks on the media window during any segment. Options include doing nothing, start/stop the video, or advance to a different segment. |
Inuitive Web-based Interface - Perform all functions using our online interface. No software to load or manager. All files and data available 24x7, no matter where you connect from. Unlimited Collaborators - You can add as many collaborators to your interactive video project as you like. Collaborators can have read/write or read-only privileges. Add and remove collaborators at any time. No Specialized Knowledge Required - You focus on writing the script and creating/uploading the video segments. There is no special software to use. Organize Your Script With Scenes - Due to the branching nature of interactive videos, large scripts can become complex in a hurry. You can define an unlimited number of scenes that you can use to group segments logically. Script Overview Tools - The Edit Script screen lets you look a the entire script in one place. By mousing over various segments, you can see what other segments point to them, and whist segments they point to. View Pathways Tool - To view all possible pathways through your script, you can use the view pathways feature, which shows all possible pathways. Can be scene, segment, or entire script based. You can also download in .CSV format for use in MS Excel or any other popular spreadsheet program. Print Script Tool - Choose from two formats - Standard and ScreenPlay format to print out your script sequentially. Our sequencing algorithm orders the segments in the most intuitive order, so you can use the script for recording video segments prior to uploading. In-Progress Testing - You can test your script at anytime, even before you upload any video files. The system will simply present the text of your script as if it were a video. This way, you can see how the script flows down various pathways by actually trying it out. |
Upload and Forget - Once you upload a media segment for any particular segment of your interactive video, the system takes it from there and manages the media file for you. Automatic Conversion - If your media file requires conversion or other adjustments, like inserting metadata or resizing, the system will automatically perform this for you. Video - .MPG, .MOV, .AVI, .MP4, .F4V, .FLV, .WMV (unprotected files only) Audio - .MP3, .MP4, .WAV (uprotected files only Images - .JPG, .PNG, .GIF, .BMP Animations - .SWF Microsoft PowerPoint Presentations - .PPT Import one slide, several slides, or all slides. Automatically creates interactive video segments and connecting navigational buttons. |

Embed in Any Webpage - The system will give you HTML code that you can embed in any webpage, anywhere on the Internet. Embed in iFrame - If you wish to embed more than one interactive video on a single webpage, we recommend the iFrame deployment method, which allows you to place an unlimited number of interactive videos on the same page. Provides HTML code that you can cut and paste into the page. Co-Branded Micro Site with Your Logo - You can upload your corporate logo and manage your own 'micro-site' that can host any number of interactive videos.
