How do you make a video without any border?

6 replies
Hi there,
I was wondering if anyone can guide me how to make a video without any border or should I say white border.

Here is an example

Gmail Mind Tricks - Mind Reader Marketing

And how can I make sure the buttons pop up at the time I want?


Thanks

    Not sure about your problem but the video that talks about Google in your link, how they monitor your supposed ***PRIVATE*** emails and read them, then market to you according to your content, is pretty sickening in my opinion and really makes the process of sending emails a ***NON PRIVATE*** affair.

    Hope they get sued for lots of money to be quite honest, and we all get in on a huge class action lawsuit.......

    If you right click that video you will see the player that they use which is EZS3.

    The video is nothing more than an flv in a player that has no visible controls or boarder.

    My own Transparent Video Player also offers that feature

    As for how to make buy buttons or a form appear at a certain point in a video the way we do it is by triggering an anchored dhtml layer that is a feature built into our Transparent Video Player which is anchored in a position below the video location. There are many other ways you can do it with our player as well like popping up in a popup the form or oder buttons or scrolling to another location in a page automatically at the end of play or redirecting to a new page at the end of play.

    I am not sure how its done in EZS3 but they may have a feature for that as well since that is the player he used in the example you reference.

      Josh, I really like your products, as soon as I get some extra money I will be purchasing at least the transparent player, its pretty powerful, especially being able to re-direct people on the page.

      Is it possible with your player to overlay a call to action such as BUY NOW, or a Auto-Responder email form?

        Yes, but different strategy than overlay... ours can trigger replacement of the dhtml layer so that new layer appears with the form in it...

        Another something we have tested is to have submit trigger new video to appear where you can do something like give them whitelist instructions... alernatively if they close without opting in your can trigger a alternate video to appear saying something like... I see you did not opt in let me give you another reason and then trigger the optin to appear again etc. Creative options are endless.

        The drawback is that our current offering is not for neophytes and requires basic copy and paste html skills and the ability to read and comprehend documentation. We are building a web based interface version though that will dumb it down a bit.

          Thats sounds great, as long as their's good documentation, I am very comfortable with html and css coding, so that should be no problem....
