Overview
As you create your video, you may want to send a draft copy to others in order to gather feedback. In doing so, you can review and make edits to the video before you approve and share it.
Note:
A video that is downloaded as a draft includes watermarks. To download a video without watermarks, see Downloading a Video as an MP4 File.

Following are the key points to know about the video that is downloaded:
- The video specifications are HD 720p (1280 x 720 pixels)
- When you play the MP4 file, the buttons in scenes are not clickable. We therefore recommend that you not include buttons in the video that you are downloading.
- If the MP4 file is played in the QuickTime player, closed captions cannot be displayed.
Downloading a Draft
A draft can be downloaded from either of the following two access points:
| 1. | On the Video Page, select the Edit tab. |
| 2. | Click Download a draft on the right side of the page. |
| 3. | (Optional) If your video includes personalization, you can create a viewer profile that defines what content is included in the draft video. |
| 4. | Preview the video to make sure that it looks exactly as you expect. |
| 5. | Click the down arrow by Download MP4 and then select Video only or Video + CC (to include captions in the downloaded file). |
| The draft video is downloaded to your computer. If you have included captions, the video is downloaded to a zipped folder containing two files (see example below). The MP4 file contains the video and the WebVTT file contains the captions. When you extract the files, make sure to keep them together in the extracted folder. ▶ If the video does not include personalization, the file name convention is [video name] ▶ If the video includes personalization, the file name convention is [video name]_[viewer profile name] In the example below, the video name is Employee Celebration and the viewer profile name is Individual. |
