Add media to your library, and then editing it is easy.
Decide on how you'd like to structure your media
When you click Add Media, you will be offered the following options. We strongly suggest creating a series for your media, even if you intent to only upload one episode of content.
- Create New Video/Audio Series (Recommended)
This is our recommended option for new content. This allows you to create a series, and then add as many episodes to it that you wish.- Your series has a title, a series synopsis and an image (This should be square, 1200x1200 Pixels. Learn more about Media Graphic Assets).
- Each episode can contain one video file, one audio file and one PDF file, or any combination of those.
- Each episode should contain a title, episode synopsis (could be the same as your series synopsis if you wish), the date the media was created, the author or speaker, keywords/search tags, and your copyright information.
- Add Episode to Existing Series
This is our recommended option for adding an additional episode to an existing series. (ie. Week two of a five part series). It contains all the options above for your new episode, while the series name and image will be re-used. - Add Stand Alone Episode (Not Recommended)
This option does not require you to create a series for your media, but rather just creates an episode. This is ok for small apps, and Podcasts, but we recommend using one of the options above to improve the display of your media visually, and enable your media to list within carousels as a series.
