Fall is here, and so are the new features we are releasing. Most of you have been working with Ken Burns effect and now, we're excited to announce its upgrade to animation. Another highly requested feature is Voiceover in Storyboard. You got it. Now you can quickly add voiceover to create powerful stories without switching to Timeline. Want to choose a custom thumbnail from your video? Change it when you publish or even after that from your video page. Dashboard got an overhaul to make it easy for you to take quick actions from one place.
Let's go over the full list of new features.
Fast or slow, subtle or abrupt, animation in videos adds an extra layer of depth to your story. Easily add movement to those static photos, or better yet, your titles and text. The best part - you don't have to learn anything new; we transitioned Ken Burns into the new Animation tab and added convenient fading controls.
You'll notice the "fx" icon now on the clips. We made it easier to apply multiple effects to your clip. No more digging into the Edit menu - just click it, select the effects you want and done.
The new improvements we made on the dashboard come in handy for business or multi-user accounts. Quickly set up your Info Card or CTA from here and get access to most common actions in the Hub.
Easily choose your video thumbnail by just dragging a slider at publish or on your video page.
We optimized the recording of audio and now saving it is faster than ever.
Look for the drop-down icon on selected projects/folders - it will offer you all available actions.
The editor now is translated into Vietnamese, Greek, Romanian and Indonesian languages to bring it to a total of 22 languages!
Our Academy now has a home on our website. Find all the videos you already love on this new page.
Multi-user accounts now have the option to assign a Lead role to users. It's ideal for supervisors who manage a group of users without the responsibility of the Administrator role.
Accounts that have call-to-action available will now have the option to set a default CTA and/or custom ones per video.
