Popcorn Maker is a GUI to allow anyone to create popcorn-powered rich media pages.
Popcorn Maker is a GUI to allow anyone to create popcorn-powered rich media pages.  It is a component of the Webmaker initiative.


By following the conventions of the [[Butter API]], developers and adventurous newbies can make their own templates. Just design a page using regular web technologies like HTML and CSS and give the popcorn-able elements some special attributes. Once you’ve designed a template to your exact requirements and specifications, you can import it into Popcorn Maker.
Popcorn Maker makes it easy to enhance, remix and share web video. Use your web browser to combine video and audio with content from the rest of the web — from text, links and maps to pictures and live feeds.
Use Popcorn Maker to create your own interactive newscasts, pop-up videos, multimedia reports, fan videos, guided web tours and more. Remix your favorite videos on YouTube
or sounds on SoundCloud, add your own comments and links, or drag and drop in
content from across the web.
 
The result is a whole new way to tell stories on the web, with videos that are dynamic,full of links, and unique each time you watch them. It's video beyond the box.
