YouTube Annotations: The Interview

After fully filming our Interview and already began editing a few days ago, piecing it together so as all we had to do was create the annotations, so that the users decision skipped to the appropriate scene. We edited it on Adobe Premiere and made the video all on one timeline rather than skipping to various links. We felt this would be easier to create the annotations on YouTube all on one editing screen rather than going to and from different ones.
It worked well and our editing went smoothly. My first experience of using YouTube annotations was a good one and I enjoyed it thoroughly and would like to do another user interactive video some time. Our narrative was simple which I thought was neccesary for a user interactive video, I feel that if they were to come across some difficulties then they may not want to carry on, so the simplicity of it being a mans preparation to a job interview was okay, but the comical twist in the cut scenes allowed for the user to remain entertained throughout.

After presenting our video, we got the response we wanted, it had a fun feeling to it and gave some laughs. Please have a look at our video and playthrough some of the possibilities and I hope you enjoy watching.

 

 

Below is a list of the possibilities after choosing each path:

 

How to get the job: Short Preparation > Change Shoes.
                                       Long Preparation > Be Cheeky.

Failed to get the job: Short Preperation > Take The Risk

                                          Long Preperation > Lie

                                          Long Preperation > Truth
