There are three ways that you can share a Films on Demand Film. This is the same process for all the Films on Demand atabases.
You may share the film url through email. Students must be logged into the portal to open the url. To add a film to Canvas you have two options: embedding and linking. Embedding allows users to view the film from within Canvas. Linking takes the user out of Canvas to watch on the FFE website. Either way, click on Embed/Link to get the appropriate links.
To send a link to a film via email, choose the “Share” option.
From the image preview, hover over the image until the description and sharing options appear. Click the “share” link on the left to open an email sharing box.
You may also email from the "Share" link at the top left of some pages.

Copy the Record URL and paste it into your Canvas page. When clicked, users will be directed to a login page where they must enter their SID and last name, and then will be directed to the FFE website to watch the film.
Copy the Embed Code link and then paste it into Canvas. In your Canvas post, click the "Insert/edit media" icon.
Then paste the code into the Embed tab on the box that opens, and click OK.
You will see the film now embedded into your post. After you save it, the user will be able to click on an audio selection and view the film within the Canvas post. From off campus, the user will have to enter their SID and last name first.
