About the Facebook Follow (Side Slide) animation

The Side Slide is made for a passing follow cue during spoken content. Use the kicker to say why the page matters, keep the public handle intact and time the entrance to a natural pause. It can exit before the next visual beat instead of lingering like a permanent channel bug.

Where it fits

  • In a talking-head update, when the presenter mentions the page.
  • During a recorded livestream, at a natural pause.
  • In a tutorial, once, after the first useful result.

Filling it in

The kicker is the why: FOLLOW FOR WEEKLY OFFERS beats FOLLOW OUR PAGE. Keep the handle intact and let the counter do the count. Time the entrance to a breath in the speech, and let it exit on its own rather than holding it as a permanent bug.

Format and timing

Facebook Follow (Side Slide) 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 3 seconds at 30 frames per second. It arrives in 0.9 seconds, holds for 1.3 and clears in 0.9, 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, and the free plan exports at 720p with a watermark.

Questions about Facebook Follow (Side Slide)

Is there a follow button on the slide?

No. The slide carries the kicker, the handle and the count. It is a reminder rather than a call to action, which is why it can pass through mid-video without stopping anything.

Can I make it stay on screen longer?

Cut the exported clip in your editor and hold a frame from the middle of the hold. The entrance and exit stay intact, and the still section stretches as long as you need.
