About the Full Video On The Channel animation

The Short-to-long-form handoff, made for the last two seconds of a clip. The length goes in the caption, because the number is what decides it: twelve minutes reads as watchable where full video reads as homework. Leave the channel name out; the profile is already on screen.

Where it fits

  • As the Short-to-long-form handoff, in the last two seconds of a clip.
  • On a teaser cut from a longer video.
  • In a podcast clip, pointing at the full episode.

Filling it in

The length goes in the caption, 12 minutes, on the channel, because the number is what decides it: twelve minutes reads as watchable where full video reads as homework. Leave the channel name out; the profile is already on screen. The band colour is the stripe.

Format and timing

Full Video On The Channel 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 3.2 seconds at 30 frames per second. It arrives in 1.5 seconds, holds for 0.8 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 Full Video On The Channel

Why not say the channel name?

Because on a Short the profile is already visible. Repeating it spends the one line on something the viewer can see, instead of the length that decides whether they go.

Can I use it to point at a podcast episode?

Yes. Change the caption to the episode length and where it lives, 48 minutes, on Spotify. The screen sliding up reads as any longer thing.
