Editor
The Editor is the interface where Admins, Broadcasters, and Creators can take recorded content from the Studio or the Recording Booth and edit it. Creating a single high-quality video with an intro, outro, branding, nametags, and logos is easy and quick with the Socialive Editor. We recommend using Editor for the following purposes.
Short (1 hour or less) video content
Applying presets to short snackable video content
Editing a single video recording
Self-recorded content
Additional notes when using Editor
When creating recording booth content, it can be edited in either the Studio or the Editor. The advantage of using the editor is that you get both sources automatically with a preset layout so that it doesn’t need to be done "manually," as would be done in the studio.
In Editor, overlays are the visual job the assets are displaying in the recording, any media asset in the space can be selected as this visual. In Studio, the overlay is both the job the asset is doing in the run of show. In Studio, there is an account-specific pool of layout assets from which to choose.
