About the YouTube End Card Bar animation

The bar layout is what a wide frame actually wants, rather than a column down the middle. The subscriber count runs on the press and holds at whatever figure you type. Use it as the closing frame of a long-form video.

Where it fits

  • As the closing frame of a long-form video, with the thanks above the bar.
  • As the outro of a documentary-style upload.
  • As a channel trailer's final ten seconds.

Filling it in

The kicker and headline are the thanks, ONE MORE THING and THANKS FOR WATCHING, and the bar carries the channel and the count. The subscriber counter runs on the press and holds at whatever figure you type, so set it to your real number with commas.

Format and timing

YouTube End Card Bar is built at 1920 × 1080, 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 0.9 seconds, holds for 1.9 and clears in 1.2, 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 YouTube End Card Bar

Why a bar along the bottom?

Because a wide frame wants a wide layout. A column down the middle of 1920 pixels leaves both sides empty; a bar uses the width and leaves the top for the thanks.

Where do end-screen elements fit?

Above the bar, in the space the headline does not use. Keep the video and playlist tiles to the upper corners and the bar stays clear.
