    Hi,

    I want to add a small banner of text on a mini video clip i'll make. The clip will be about 30 seconds, but id like a banner basically showing a web address?

    Any ideas

    Thanks

    You mean something like this:
    [​IMG]

    You can do it (and it will look crap) with Windows Movie Maker. Or you can do it in After Effects with a transparent PNG and it will look nice.

    PM me if you want someone to do it for you (for a few $) :)

    I very much to you recommend to try Watermark Master. This program is specially created just for your needs. I use her rather frequently, she is rather simple and also very powerful during too time

    with Adobe Premiere you can do it easily and put anywhere you like and what size you want..you can also put animated logo in your videos..that's cool:)

    nic - thanks for the suggestion. I tried to get hold of water mark master, but the site appears to be closed.

    As for Adobe Premier - how easy is this to use, if you have never used it before?

    It's used for video editing. You can use it to watermark videos on the fly or change the video from mepg to flv or what ever you want. It's a handy little tool but 99% of shared servers wont offer it.

    I'd like to do the same thing with a small watermark on the corner of the video's that get uploaded to my site. I was thinking of using a script like clipshare and wondered what I would have to do to enable watermarking?

    Thanks
    Britt
