đź’ˇ Embed Best Practices

  • •Test embeds on the network where you'll present—some venues block external content
  • •Use autoplay sparingly—surprise videos can disrupt presentation flow
  • •Have a fallback: screenshot the video thumbnail in case embed fails to load
  • •For Figma, use "Present" view URLs—they load faster and look cleaner
  • •Keep videos under 2 minutes—longer videos lose audience attention
