Learn how to create an interactive video using a bookmark and an overlay.
In the all-new Adobe Captivate, you can create interactive videos using Adobe Captivate by combining video elements with interactive slides using bookmarks and overlays.
Bookmark
A bookmark is a point in the timeline you want to visit later. Bookmarks allow you to divide your course into smaller modules and make navigation across modules easy.. You can bookmark important points in the video, which learners can seek based on their interaction with the course.
Overlays
Overlays allow you to add additional interactive content on top of your main eLearning project. Overlays provide a way to enhance the learner's experience by including elements such as pop-up messages, videos, images, or other content.
In this example, you'll add a bookmark to a video. When the learner reaches the point in the video, a quiz appears as an overlay, which the learner can take.
