Follow the tutorial below to start styling and designing the content around the video now!

3. You will see your blocks on the right-hand side. Select the Video block.

4. You will immediately see layout options to position your text around the video. You can position the content how you would like (top/center/bottom) and also wrap the text around the video. Select the option you prefer.
