Editing Video Clips

With options to trim, split, adjust audio, and control playback speed, Storylane’s video editing features make it easy to deliver polished, interactive videos that engage viewers.

• Trim Video

• Control Playback Speed

Trim Video

Trim your videos to focus on the essential parts of your demo, allowing you to cut out any unnecessary segments. This keeps your message concise and impactful.

Split Video with Hotspots

Turn passive viewing into an interactive experience by splitting videos at key moments and adding hotspots.

This feature lets you add breakpoints in longer videos, where Storylane automatically captures a screenshot and places a hotspot on it. This allows viewers to engage directly with specific steps or features.

🎬 Make Key Moments Stand Out Already using video in your demos? Now, there’s a quicker way to split it—just pause the video and click to insert a hotspot at the cursor. This makes highlighting important steps even easier!

Add or Mute Audio

Add audio to provide extra context in your videos and demos. If your viewers prefer a quieter experience, they can easily mute the audio. This lets you add a more personal touch to your demos while giving viewers control over their experience.

Control Playback Speed

Give viewers the option to speed up or slow down the demo to match their learning pace. Speed through familiar sections or slow down for detailed explanations. This flexibility ensures your audience can engage with your demo capturing every important detail.
