About the Merch Drop Alert animation

Merch Drop Alert is built for the minute a new item goes on sale during a stream. The product photo appears with a chip above it, the price counts up beside the Product name, and a Shop the drop button finishes the alert. Replace the Product photo and set Chip, Product name, Price and Button for the item you're releasing. Keep Product name to a few words so it fits the alert. The button is a graphic, so viewers still buy through your own store link.

Where it fits

  • Right as a hoodie goes on sale, played over gameplay so viewers see it straight away.
  • In a launch clip for social, cut in after you hold the item up to the camera.
  • At the top of each hour during a launch stream, as a repeat reminder that the drop is open.

Filling it in

Type Price with the currency sign, such as $48 or $60, and the number counts up to it. Keep Chip in caps, like NEW DROP or RESTOCK, and Button to three words or fewer.

Format and timing

Merch Drop Alert 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 1.2 seconds, holds for 0.3 and clears in 1.5, 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.

Questions about Merch Drop Alert

Can the price show a different amount?

Yes. Price is a counter, so type any amount and it rolls up to that figure.

Does Shop the drop open my store?

No. It's a graphic. Share your store link in chat or the description.

What size is it?

It's 640 x 360, a 16:9 overlay that runs for 3 seconds. It has a transparent background, so it sits over your footage.
