# Add written or recorded context

Context helps a viewer understand a meeting moment without watching everything that came before it. Add only what the clip cannot explain for itself.

## Written context

Review the suggested introduction and notes for each moment. Edit them so they:

* name the issue in plain language;
* identify speakers or roles when that matters;
* explain a prior action or missing step;
* avoid repeating the first line of the clip; and
* distinguish confirmed facts from interpretation.

Generated suggestions are drafts. You are responsible for what the final video says.

## Record an intro

In the intro control, choose the recording option and allow camera or microphone access when prompted. You can record video or audio, review it, and try again before keeping it.

A personal intro can explain why the moment matters, connect it to earlier reporting, or let viewers hear directly from the journalist or civic creator guiding them through the meeting.

## Upload an intro

Choose **Upload Intro** to add an audio or video file from your computer. To record on a phone or another device, open the upload window and scan its QR code.

Do not include confidential material in an upload. Preview the selected intro before continuing and remove it if it no longer fits the clip.

Not every moment needs an introduction. A strong source clip with a clear headline can often stand on its own.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.seegov.org/create-video-highlights/add-context.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
