Quick Answer
To prepare a logo watermark for video, export a transparent image and place it in a video editor. The image Watermark Adder on this site works on still images; it does not edit or export video footage.
Settings for this task
| Decision | Starting point | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| Asset | Transparent PNG | Keep the original logo proportions. |
| Display | Set in the video editor | Position, duration and opacity belong to the video workflow. |
| Preview | Moving light and dark scenes | A static white background is not enough. |
Worked example
A 192-pixel-wide logo over a 1920-pixel-wide video occupies 10% of the frame width. That is an example starting point, not a universal watermark standard. On a smaller player its lettering may become unreadable.
Step-by-step workflow
- Export a transparent logo at sufficient resolution.
- Import it as an overlay track in your video editor.
- Set its scale and position clear of captions and important action.
- Review moving footage and export a short sample before rendering the full video.
Limits and final checks
Low opacity may make the mark disappear on bright footage. A subtle outline or approved contrasting variation may work better, but no watermark prevents copying.
