As you create your video, we recommend that you preview your work as you go so that you can see how the content you configure—text, media, voice-overs, and more—plays in the video. Previewing is important for a number of reasons:

  • You'll be able to see how each scene plays and how the scenes transition from one to another.

  • You'll hear the voice-over and the selected background music.

  • You'll view the media assets that you have uploaded.

  • If your video includes personalization that you've implemented with 1:1 personalization or audience messaging, you will only be able to see the variations when previewing.

  • After each preview, you can make any required adjustments and tweaks.

Note:
If you would like to share a preview of the video with someone who does not have access to the platform, you can download a scene or the entire video to an MP4 file.

▶ You will see the content and hear the voice-over that are defined for all viewers.

(Optional) If you have configured dynamic messaging, you can select a value from the relevant drop-down list to see how the video will look to a specific audience. In this way, you can test samples of your data to make sure that your audiences see the relevant content.
