media usage

❗ Do not edit here. Edit the README in the repo. ❗

##Usage
Bullets describing situations Media is good at addressing.

###Layouts Single or spanned (full width).

###Mobile fall-back On mobile it resizes to a single width span, so keep headings relatively short: as with the Narrative, you only have one phone-width line to fit them on.

###Accessibility

• Make sure you include a transcript or captions if necessary. For more complex videos, you might need to include a separate audio track with detailed descriptions.

• Ensure that any videos don’t present content that flashes more than three times per second.

##Tips

Here are some techniques for getting the most from Media:

• Have you got a message that should be delivered by a key member of your organisation? You can use the Media component to show a talking head video or a narrated slideshow.

• Sometimes processes are best understood if they’re shown, so use a video to walk learners through.

• Think about combining a video or audio case study with an assessment component. Perhaps a call centre colleague is giving an answer over the phone to customer—how would you rate their call? If you’ve got a video scenario, you can identify behaviours or body language.

• Media components are also useful for showing animations created in another tool and then exported as video—see the demo for an example of this.
