Accessing scripts for filming
You can access your scripts at any time via both the VideoMyJob web dashboard and the app, but most importantly you can easily access your scripts whilst in filming mode.
Here's how:
- Once you have selected 'Record a Video' and are in filming mode, on screen you will see a silhouette and sample script
- Tap the blue pen next to the script OR click on the actual text of the sample script
- This will open up your 'Scripts'
- Select a script of choice OR write one, it will automatically load into your video
- By default, your most recently edited script appears when you begin recording
Accessing your existing scripts to make changes (in the app)
- Expand the menu in the top left and select 'Scripts'
- This will open up your script library
- Here you can edit an existing script, delete an old script or create a new one
