As most people do, before going in and coding the HTML/CSS of a site, I usually like to create the design in an application such as Photoshop (and for recent projects, Affinity Designer) and then export the design as an image so that I can send it to the client and confirm they like the design.

I want to show that a design has a video background, and I'm not quite sure how I'd do this. I would just put a still from the video in the design, but then it isn't clear that it's a video and not an image, so I'd need to explain to them that it's a video, and they would need to be able to visualize it as a video.

I was thinking that perhaps I could somehow embed the video into the document and export it as a video, and just place that video in a HTML page so that it occupies the full width & they can scroll down it. This doesn't feel like a very good solution to me, especially since most design programs do not support this. However, I can't think of any better ideas on how to present it.

What are some good ways to present a design which has a video background as a key element in the design to the client, without having to code the whole website and (potentially) having to scrap it all?
