About the You Asked animation

Use it in Q&A videos when you answer something viewers keep asking. A bubble with the viewer's question appears, typing dots follow, then your answer arrives with your avatar and handle. Change Viewer, Question, Handle and Answer, upload Avatar, and pick an Answer colour that suits your channel. Keep Question and Answer to one short sentence each so the bubbles stay compact.

Where it fits

  • In a Q&A video, before each answer, so viewers see which question you're on.
  • Over the start of a vertical reply video, quoting the comment that prompted it.
  • Midway through a tutorial, when you pause to answer a common question.

Filling it in

Write Viewer as a handle followed by asked, the same way the default does. Only name a viewer who asked in public, and keep their words close to the original. Pick an Answer colour that stays readable over your footage.

Format and timing

You Asked is built at 640 × 360, a 16:9 landscape frame, the shape of a YouTube video, a stream layout and most editing timelines, and runs 4 seconds at 30 frames per second. It arrives in 1.7 seconds, holds for 1.5 and clears in 0.8, so cue it a beat before the moment it labels. Export it as an MP4 for a timeline or a feed, a GIF where video will not embed, or a MOV with an alpha channel to lay it over footage with nothing behind it. Renders go up to 4K on a paid plan. The free plan shows a watermarked preview.
