Break Timer
A corner countdown for a break you said would be short.
A stream graphic arrives because something happened rather than because an editor put it there. Alerts come in from an edge so they never cover the middle of the picture, and the scene cards — starting soon, back shortly — are the ones an audience actually sits and looks at.

How this one is built
Break Timer is built from 2 shapes and 2 text layers, using a 24-pixel backdrop blur behind frosted glass rimmed in blue and a shadow 60 pixels deep. Its colours are near-black, blue and white. Type is set in Inter and IBM Plex Mono.
The pulse and timer plate fade up at 0s, the label and countdown fade up at 0.4s. The whole run is 10s at 60 frames a second.
It sits along the top to the right of a 16:9 composition, spanning about 20% of the width at 380×110 pixels.
What to do with it
- Make it yoursChange the words, the colours and the timing without breaking the animation that was built for the shape.
- Export it with transparencyWhich format your editor actually reads, and why a black rectangle behind your graphic means the wrong one was chosen.
- Get it into OBSA stream alert has to sit over the game with nothing behind it, which is the one thing an ordinary MP4 cannot do.
- What exporting costsOpening this template, changing it and watching it back are free. Getting the finished file out is $5 once for this project, or a plan if you make them often.
