# Start on a page that has our Canvas 3D component

3. You will see the annotations component popup. Looks like someone already created an annotations context here
4. Click on Add Action Item
5. Click on the temporary title
6. Type your new title, here it will be contextual so those coming behind you will know what we're talking about. "Replace guard?"
7. Click on Create Annotation
8. Click on Content Type
9. There are four types of annotations we can add.
Text is standard text, Image URL is the direct URL to an image, Video URL is a direct URL to a video, e.g. mp4, and iframe will load whatever page you want in the context of the annotation

11. Repeat as needed; remember to save periodically.

18. Lets take a look, Click on the annotation, number 2
19. We see the video now when selected, Click on Play to view and hear the video
