A retention rail creeping toward a marker, for the payoff that is still a few seconds away.
Retention is the number that decides whether a short travels, and telling people something is coming is the cheapest way to hold them. Put a real figure in the time field, because an honest fourteen seconds beats a vague promise, and only use it when the ending actually earns the wait. It sits low in the frame so the footage stays clear.
Put a real figure in the time field, 0:14 LEFT, because an honest count beats a vague promise. The headline can stay as STAY TILL THE END or name the payoff. Use it only when the ending earns the wait. The rail colour tints the bar creeping toward the marker.
Stay Till The End 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 0.7 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.
The rail animates over the clip's own three seconds. Cue it so the figure you typed is roughly true when it appears, and the creeping bar sells the rest.
Low in the frame, above the caption zone, so the footage stays clear. It is a retention rail, not a title, and it should read as a small promise rather than a banner.
