Reaktiokehyksillä

Reaktiokehyksillä, known in English as reaction frames or reaction boxes, are a visual communication tool primarily used in online interactions, particularly within video content platforms and social media. They typically consist of a small, often square or rectangular, frame displayed within a larger video or stream. This frame displays a user's facial reaction, often captured through a webcam, to the content being watched.

The primary purpose of reaktiokehyksillä is to add a layer of personal engagement and commentary to shared viewing experiences. Viewers can see the streamer's or content creator's genuine emotions and reactions in real-time, which can enhance the entertainment value and create a sense of shared experience. This can range from laughter and surprise to shock or contemplation, depending on the content.

These frames are particularly popular in live streaming, where viewers can interact with the streamer and their reactions directly through chat. They are also utilized in pre-recorded reaction videos, where creators compile their responses to other media. The technology behind reaktiokehyksillä involves video capture software that allows for the overlay of a secondary video feed onto a primary one. While often associated with gaming content, their application has expanded to include reactions to movie trailers, music videos, news clips, and various other forms of online media. The visual element provided by reaktiokehyksillä contributes to the dynamic and interactive nature of modern online content consumption.
