Why use Vimeo & Stornaway Interactive Video?
Vimeo has been around for over 20 years and has over 200 million global members. The platform prides itself on its ability to deliver high-quality videos to viewers and offers the ability to have videos without adverts.
You might have content of your own on Vimeo. So how do you connect it together? And how do you use it as part of a wider story that involves more of your content on other platforms?
That’s where Stornaway Voyager comes in.
🦄 What is Stornaway Voyager?
With Stornaway Voyager, you can take content from around the web and place it inside your Stornaway project.
Voyager completes our vision for Stornaway as a new type of application – an Interactive Experience Designer that lets you turn your static passive content into guided interactive conversations and journeys. With a human touch.
So now – each section or slide or Story Island (as we call them in Stornaway) can contain videos and content from anywhere: Youtube videos, Loom, Microsoft Office and Google documents, Adobe, other websites, Live stream video, Spotify playlists and Tiktok clips. Whatever you want.
