Video Player
-
Video player is most suitable to present a movie with a linear story such as tutorials, recipes, etc.
-
The video player can play uploaded videos but also external links like YT, FB or Vimeo
-
The video is ‘scale to fit’ in the bounding box, i.e. the video keeps its height and width ratio.
-
The Video player has video controls such as video scrubber, full screen mode and volume.
VideoBox
-
VideoBox is best used as a design element - as a fully stretched video on a container or a section, or as a decorative motion element
-
Best practice instead of using gifs is to use VideoBox with a video set to ‘loop’. This way the quality and the performance are much better
-
VideoBox has big range of design controls:
-
Pattern overlays
-
Full control over the size, position and color of the play button
-
Focal point (as it can be resized not proportionally and scaled to fill)
-
Flip & rotate function
-
Masks
