Go from an empty story to your screens in four steps. Each step explains the basics and links to the full article.
1. Create a story
On the Stories page, click New Story at the top right. Give your story a Title, choose the Location and the Base Setup: the setup you're building it for. Then click Create. If your organisation has only one setup, Location and Base Setup are filled in for you.

2. Build your first scene
Your story opens in the Composer with one empty scene. Add a background first, then add media and text from the top bar and place them on the canvas. Select anything to change its settings in the property panel on the right. Everything is saved automatically.
