🎥 How to create videos and voiceovers using Fliki:

Editor

The editor is where you create and edit your videos, audio files, or images. It's like a digital storyboard where you piece together your project.

Here’s what the editor looks like:

Files and Folders

Creating a Folder

Navigate to the Files page.
Click on the "New folder" option in the top right corner.
Enter the folder name and click "Submit."

Fliki's files serve as projects where users can create and edit their content. There are three main types of files available, namely video, audio and design files.

To create a video file, jump to the video file section.

To create a design file, jump to the design file section.

Scenes

A Scene refers to a sequence or segment within a Fliki file. When creating a video/audio in Fliki, users often organize their content into different scenes to structure the narrative or flow of the content. Think of them like chapters in a book. They're arranged in a list from top to bottom, making it easy to see the order of your project.

Adding a scene

You can add scenes to your Fliki file and create a sequence you desire. Follow these steps to add a scene:

Click on the + symbol right below the first scene to create a new one.
You can also add scene(s) between 2 or more scenes via the same process.

Deleting a scene

You can delete or remove a scene you do not need in your sequence. Follow these steps to delete a scene:

Take your cursor on the scene you wish to remove.
Click on the Delete icon right under the scene.

Moving a scene

You can move the scenes in files to rearrange and reorder the flow of your script. To move a scene, follow the steps:

Take your cursor on the scene you wish to move.
Hold the drag handle (⋮⋮ icon) and drag up or down to move your scene up or down, respectively.

Note: The drag handle (⋮⋮ icon) is only visible on the collapsed scene.

Duplicating a scene

You can create a duplicate copy of your scene and make further changes as you desire. To duplicate your scene, follow these steps:

Take your cursor to the scene you wish to duplicate.
Click on the Duplicate this scene button to replicate your scene.
A duplicate scene will be created right below the original one.
