About the Triple Ask animation

The whole ask in one pass, for the end of a video where stopping to explain three buttons costs more than it earns. The pill carries the state change, so the before and after labels want to read as the same button in two moments: subscribe and subscribed, not subscribe and thank you. It runs three seconds and asks for three things, which only works once the video has made the case.

Where it fits

  • As the whole ask in one pass, at the end of a video where explaining three buttons costs more than it earns.
  • Over the outro, under a spoken thanks.
  • In a series close, the same three seconds every time.

Filling it in

The before and after labels want to read as the same button in two moments, SUBSCRIBE and SUBSCRIBED, not subscribe and thank you. The pill colour is the button. It asks for three things in three seconds, which only works once the video has made the case.

Format and timing

Triple Ask 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 1.7 seconds, holds for 0.9 and clears in 0.4, 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 Triple Ask

What happens in the pass?

The cursor crosses the bar left to right: the like fills, the pill turns over to subscribed, and the bell takes its badge. Three actions, one motion.

Can I drop the bell from the pass?

Not from the fields. The three controls are the bar. Trim the exported clip before the bell if you only want two, though the cursor will leave mid-crossing.
