What is Brainient?


Now knowing the project and finding out we are branding, selling and advertising a product. I thought it would be a good idea for a first bit of research and get to know the software!


Brainient, is a interactive advertising software. This means you can have interactive links over your video. An image below shows a quick example of the software.

As you can see the image on the right shows that they have used the software to advertise the product and gives additional information of the product and company. 




The software it self seems fairly simple: Below is a quick example I made within about 5 mins. This gave the names of the actors and had links on their names leading the viewer to their personal blogs.


I use my own blog as an example.


(Above) I took my youtube link then clicked on edit in BrainStudio, now I can add the interactive elements I want over-layed on the video.

I now have options where I can use to ad and import things I want to add. For this test I just want to add text that has a interactive link when clicked on.

Here I have added the names over the people in the shots. They have been timed to disappear when the actor is off shot and someone new is there.


Adding the link was simple. Now when I click on my name it will take me to my blog. 


This was a quick try at getting an idea of using the software and kind of things it can be good for. 

Me and the group are meeting Tuesday where we plan to set some tasks and deadlines.
