Keynote Video Question

I am creating a Brady Bunch intro using keynote for a birthday gift and I need to know how to make sure all the videos play from start to finish in all slides from beginning to end.

All the videos must play at least 25 seconds but are located among many different slide.

How do I get each video to start together and keep playing during the duration of the movie I'm creating until the last slide.

It looks wonderful so far but the videos jump around when changing from slide to slide.

I am hoping I made this clear to those who may be able to help me.

If not please google the Brady Bunch theme intro and watch how all the characters in the boxes

have a continuous running video...thanks so much!

Mac mini, OS X 10.11

This is called Picture in Picture, its just two or more videos placed on a single slide

to create this in Keynote:

1

Place relevant video files on the first slide

size & position the videos on the slide

Select all

go to Inspector > Animate

Click Build Order button

In the Build Order list, Click in the Start Dropdown Menu and select: After Previous Build

edit the video files so they all start at the required time and have the same duration:

click to select the 1st video on the slide

Go to: Inspector > Format > Movie

de-select Start Movie on Click

drag the Trim handles to the required In and Out points, the video on the slide will display the changes

Repeat the process for the other video files

To finish, repeat the above for the other slides that will contain video
