Answer A Multiple Choice Question Then Record A Video

The Scenario
One of our users wanted to force people to answer a simple multiple choice question and then get them to record a video.  The multiple choice question was required to give the user the option of which topic they would prefer to speak about during their video recording. The example topics were:  health, wealth, future and feelings.

The solution is achieved using 2 event files and RightBooth's event flow features.  Event flow allows you to design multiple event files that have different functions and then make them run in a particular sequence, giving your users the impression that they are running a single event.  In this article we will use RightBooth's event flow features to answer the scenario.

Create two event files

• Run RightBooth.
• From the main screen, click the New button to create a new event.
• Then click Save As to save this event file with the name 'topic'.
• Now click the New button to create a second new event.
• Click Save As again and save this event file with the name 'video'.

Design the 'topic' event file

• Open the topic event file.
  
• Click the Design button.
• In the Event Type tab, tick Questions, untick Video and untick Photo(s).
• In the Event structure tab, untick the 'Include Thankyou' screen
• In the Event structure tab, untick 'Include Instruction screen'  (under Miscellaneous) 
• In the Event flow tab, in the section 'On completion, start...'  select 'next event' then click Browse and choose your video event file.
• In the Event questions tab, add a single multi choice question as follows...

• Save the topic event file.

Design the video event file

• Open the video event file.
  
• Click the Design button.
• In the Event Type tab, tick Video and untick Photo(s)
• In the Event structure tab, untick the Start screen.
• In the Event flow tab, select 'next event' then click Browse and choose your topic event file.  Repeat this on all 3 sections of the event flow.
• Save the video event file.

You are now ready to start the event.  Open the topic event file again and start playing the topic event.
Here is what will happen...

• The user will be presented with the Start screen of the topic event
• When the user interacts with the screen, they will then be asked to select a topic from the multiple choice question.
• After choosing a topic, RightBooth will then automatically play the video event file and the user will be asked to record a video.
• When the video recording is complete, the 'Thank you' screen will be displayed.
• RightBooth will then automatically open the topic event file again (at the Start screen) ready to repeat the whole process for the next user.
