How to simulate taking a photo
I'm curious if anyone has ideas on how to simulate taking a photo in Storyline 360. What I'd like to do is:
- Show a digital camera or phone on the screen.
- Allow the learner to move it around the screen to frame a shot.
- The thing they would be framing is a video that's playing on the slide.
- Once the learner has the framing the way they want it I'd like for them to be able to take a "picture" (I imagine it being a freeze frame of the video).
- I would then like the learner to be able to view the picture.
I can imagine a situation with a 360 image, but not a video.
So, the second slide of this experiment simulates a ship window. You can grab the view in the window and move it to "look around". You could You could put some interactive hotspots on the 360 image that would link to a slide of a "photo" of that region to continue navigating through the course.
I created the "window" with a donut shape over the 360 image. If you use a circle, the "fill" will get in the way of interacting with the 360 image.
Here's an idea for doing it with a movie:
Animate hotspots that link to screen-shots of the photos!
