Bitesize Notion

Hey Notioneers, Let’s Get Creative!

Notion isn’t just about text and to-do lists; it’s a dynamic workspace where you can integrate various forms of multimedia. From images and videos to audio files and web content, Notion allows you to bring your pages to life. Let’s dive into how you can enrich your Notion pages with multimedia elements.

Adding Images and Videos:

• Enhance your Notion pages with images or videos by using the “/image” or “/video” commands.
• You can upload files directly or import them from the web such as Youtube videos, then watch them in Notion
• With “/image” you can search and add free stock directly from Unsplash or add content from Giphy

Embedding Audio Files:

• Whether it’s a podcast episode, a music track, or a recorded meeting, you can embed audio files in your Notion pages.
• Use the “/audio” command to upload audio files or link them from platforms like SoundCloud.

Incorporating Web Content:

• Notion allows you to embed web content directly onto your pages. Use “/embed” to add web links, which can be a great way to reference external resources or websites.
• This feature is particularly useful for research, project planning, or as a part of a digital portfolio.

Creating Interactive Pages with Multimedia:

• Combine text with multimedia to create interactive and engaging pages. This is especially useful for educational content, project presentations, or digital portfolios.

Organizing Multimedia Content:

• Use Notion’s gallery view to create a visual database of images, videos, or other media files.
• Increase or decrease the size of the multimedia with the handles on either side
• Hover over the media to see additional options such as crop, download, add a comment
• Be mindful of the file sizes, as large files can impact the loading speed of your pages.

Integrating multimedia in Notion can transform your workspace into a vibrant and interactive hub. Embrace these features to make your pages more engaging and informative.
