You can create a new scene in the following ways

You can also delete, copy, and move scene order on the storyboard

Each scene is made up of elements (or scene elements). These can be used to present:

Elements are added to the session from the content sidebar on the left

They can be moved, resized, rotated and edited, allowing you to design your each scene in your session

You can position yourself (the host) anywhere and control your size, shape or event rotation.

Similarly, you can add the session participants (your audience) anywhere on the scene, change the layout, number of people shown at the same time, change their shape, size and more.

In scenes with specific speakers, you can use the Speaker element to select specific participants and show them separately from the other participants. This is good for a planned guest speaker, a panel or even a planned Q&A / debate between participants.

Wordcloud - Asking your audience a question and presenting the results in a form of a wordcloud where more common answers are displayed larger.

Reactions - allows people to react to what’s happening in the session with gifs and sounds (sounds can be turned off).

Scribble - allows all your participants to scribble right on the scene and see each-other’s live cursors as they do this.

Buzzer (or ‘First to Click’) - a big red button that shown the live video of the first participant to click on it. It’s great for adding a fun gameshow vibe to your session.

Whiteboard - allows you and your participants to collaborate and create ideas together. This is a more elaborate live app that allows everyone to add text, free-style scribbles and shapes to capture your joint work.

Music visualizer - allows you to add beautiful visualizations to any music or sounds that play during the live session.

Poll - A multiple choice question where participants can choose between 2-4 options you set in advance and the results are shown to everyone when ending the poll.

Yes or No - a special type of poll where participants select one of 2 answers - yes or no.

Quiz - Similar to the poll, but here you can set one of the possible answers as the correct answer. When ending the quiz each participant gets a fun Right or Wrong reaction.

Share screen - allows anyone to share their screen and present it to everyone else.

Sticky notes - Allows you and your participants to quickly jot down ideas and arrange them on the scene.
