Insert Preview phase with the cabability of adding a local audio background music/fx track. #75

Open Robin-rempel opened 7 years ago

In the Dramatize phase, after all the slides have been re-recorded dramatically, before the user moves to the Finalize/Export phase, there needs to be a way to encourage or "force" the user to go back and listen (proof) every slide in the story to make sure it sounds good/right.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? After the user dramatically re-records all the slide in a story, they will be (automatically?) returned to slide zero for a final check. Now on the screen for each slide there appears a red circle check mark (similar to the one used in the Consultant Check phase). They will be required to tap the triangular play button on the lower recording bar at least once before the red circle check mark can be tapped which will turn it green (to indicate that the user thinks the slide is ok). All the circle check marks need to be tapped green before a video can be created in the Finalize/Export phase.
If the user goes to the Finalize phase before making each circle check mark green, should we have an alert message appear saying something like "Please confirm/check that the voice narration sounds good in all the slides before finalizing your video."? I suppose another option would be to lock the Finalize phase until the Dramatize check is done, but that feels a little bit extreme to me. If the user tries to create a video before all the circle check marks are green in the Dramatize phase, an alert message will appear saying something like "Please confirm that the text and/or voice narration sounds good in all the Dramatize slides by ticking each red circle to make it green."

Please provide any additional information below This issue replaces issue #29.

Maybe an additional Preview phase needs to be added between the Dramatize and Finalize phases. This will probably be necessary also for enabling another local music audio track. If end-users want to make their video be accompanied by their own local music, they would have to record it while the story is playing straight through all the slides/clips.
