Video Content Management

Episodic delivers a content management solution built to scale from just a few videos up to thousands of broadcast-length episodes. From videos published months ago, to footage that’s hot off the press, you have at your disposal an incredibly flexible set of tools for categorizing, editing, and finally publishing every piece of content you keep inside Episodic.

Slots Add Structure To Video

Every piece of content in Episodic can be displayed and edited as a simple video timeline. This timeline makes it incredibly easy to splice in more video, such as a favorite intro reel, or a new credit reel at the end.

Without having to re-edit your content or upload it again, you can easily add, remove or change your content, and instantly push out these changes to anywhere your videos appear.

Placing Ads in Your Video

Using the same timeline editor, it’s simple to decide where ads appear in your videos. By just dragging and dropping ad markers, you can decide whether a video includes a pre-roll, mid-rolls or a post-roll ad.

Add Content On The Fly

Adding new content to your video is as easy as dragging and dropping a marker into the timeline.

Without having to re-embed your content, or re-upload it, you can simply drag these ad markers around, save your work, and almost immediately the new ad positioning is available everywhere your content appears.

Putting on the Finishing Touches

Once your video is ready for air, the final and perhaps most important piece is to decide what thumbnail your audience will see before deciding to click on and view your video. Episodic offers a way to easily test many different versions of a thumbnail for a video - once there’s a clear winner, we’ll automatically choose that for you and make sure clicks continue to go up.

Setting a thumbnail

Picking an appropriate thumbnail is an incredibly important part of airing a successful clip.

Almost as important as picking a good thumbnail is to decide what sort of information you want to store with the video - whether you’re simply tagging the video, or adding a unique identifier that ties back to content on your own site - Episodic offers a completely extensible set of fields for storing custom information along with your content. All of this can be easily set up and managed through our easy-to-use interface.
