How do I use Boast video automations?

Each video you collect on your form can be added to the timeline once.

Conditional Elements

Each video is added within a “conditional element” section - any items in this section will only be added to the final automation video if the video was actually collected. If the submitter does not record a video, the video and anything else in the condition section will not be included in the final video automation. Custom videos and title slides can be added inside of this conditional space.

Lower Thirds

You can add a “lower thirds” section to any of the form videos. This will display submitted info in the corner of the video, such as a person’s name and organization.

Custom Videos

Custom videos can be added to the automation as well. These could be used for custom intro and outro sequences.
