You can upload different types of media to create engaging scenarios in Warp Studio, such as immersive (180°/360°) videos and photos, as well as traditional (flat) videos and images. This article explains how to upload media into Warp Studio and what happens after uploading.

🎦 Uploading media

1. Open a scenario and go to the Media page.
2. Click the red Upload media button in the top right.
3. Select the type of media you want to upload and choose the files from your device.

👩🏻‍💻 Transcoding

After uploading a media, Warp Studio will automatically transcode it into optimized formats for different devices.

This may take a few minutes.

When transcoding is complete, media thumbnails will appear in the Media page.

❗️Important Behaviour Notes

180° media

If interactive elements are placed outside the visible 180° area, a warning message will be shown.

Immersive photo

• Auto-transition elements do not work with Immersive photos.
• All interactive elements appear immediately when the scene starts.
• There is no timeline slider for images (unlike immersive video).

⏭️ Next Steps

Once your media is uploaded, you can:

• Link a video or image to a scene
• Add and edit interactive elements in the Video Editor

For supported formats, resolution, codecs, and recommended settings, see: Media Upload Specifications.
