Introduction to Brand Configuration
Before you begin working on the individual scenes of a video, we recommend that you first create a brand configuration based on your brand guidelines. A brand configuration includes the following components:
- A logo
- Colors that are used for the various scene components (background, text, button, and accents)
- Text styles that are used for the on-screen text in the scenes
- A button shape that defines how buttons appear in the video
A brand configuration is applied to every video that you create. You can apply the same brand configuration to many videos.
Your account comes with one default brand configuration but you can create as many brand configurations as you need. Generally speaking, you may decide to have a main brand configuration that you use for most of your videos and then create additional brand configurations as needs arise.
Following are examples of scenarios that may require a new brand configuration:
1. |
You are creating a video for the holiday season that requires a different logo than your company's standard logo. |
2. |
You are creating a video for Black Friday deals. In order to differentiate the videos from others, you need to use a different logo and colors. |
3. |
In one of your videos, you want to make changes to some of the colors. |
Warning:
As mentioned above, a brand configuration can be applied to more than one video. If you edit a brand configuration, any change you make will affect both the video you are currently working on as well as all videos using the same brand configuration. We therefore recommend proceeding with caution.
