DreamStudio Tutorial: Basics


The Dream Studio feature can be used exclusively by Sanriotown members, so non-users, be sure to sign up in Sanriotown!


From the Sanriotown homepage, users should sign in to their accounts. After they are brought to their mailbox, they can then access Dream Studio by clicking its tab at the top of the page.
Note to Firefox Users: Videos can only be made using the Internet Explorer browser. However, they can still view the videos made by the users with Firefox.


On the Dreamstudio page, users will be able to see the image below:

Videos open for public viewing are divided into the following: Most Recent, Most Viewed, Most Discussed, and Editor's Pick. If you've already finished your video and you can't find it on the main page, don't worry! If the video's new, chances are, there were also new videos posted the same time that you put up yours. Yours is still saved! Just click on the circle with the arrow in it and you'll be able to see all the videos under that category.


Alternatively, the tags may also be used to find a video. These (found near the bottom of the page) are made by the users along with their videos. These are used for easier classification. For example, when someone clicks on the “Hello Kitty” tag, all videos that users have tagged with “Hello Kitty” will be displayed. Make sure to click the other pages (page numbers displayed at the bottom of the page) if you haven't seen your video yet!


For those who want to make their videos, click “My Account.” The following should be seen: Create Video, Manage Video, Manage Collection, and My Favorite. These will be discussed more in detail in the next entries.


Create Video. For the making and producing of new videos.
Manage Video. Users can go here to edit or delete their video and/or its detail.
Manage Collection. Contains all the videos you've created and chosen as Favorites.
My Favorite. Contains all the videos you've chosen as Favorites so these can be viewed more quickly than having to search for these all over again.


That's it for this week! Keep visiting the blog for more info and news!
