Videos can come from your imported video assets. Use it as a standalone video or as an <a href="/nodalin-docs/how-to.../instancing.md">instancing</a> target for other Source nodes. </td></tr></tbody></table>

#### Assets

The Assets dropdown lists the videos currently imported into Nodalin. Select a video asset to use it as the Image node’s source.&#x20;

You can add your own videos at any time using the Add Video button. You can also import videos through the Assets pane as described in the [UI Overview](/nodalin-docs/quick-guide/ui-overview.md#the-assets-pane)
