5. GDPR compliance
If StoryBox detects that a person has been recorded in the video, a message about this will appear after the recording is finished, as well as a request to directly record a consent of the corresponding person.
To do this, click on Record Consent and get to the following recording screen:
A standard text is stored, which the corresponding person should speak into the camera to consent to the recording. This text can be interpreted freely and appropriately.
If the same person is recorded in multiple scenes, StoryBox may not recognize this and will prompt for re-recording consent. In this case, you can tap later and skip the recording.
This recording does not become part of the video and therefore cannot be found in the scene area.
It is stored at the end of all scenes, in the lower area of the scene selection, as a so-called metafile.
6. selecting a shot for the video
Several exposures can be made per scene.
Each saved exposure is stored in the corresponding scene for selection.
The exposure that is currently selected for use in the video is outlined in green and can be viewed in the preview screen of the scene.
