Channel Bar
Classic Corner Tag
Avatar, handle and a live dot, small enough to sit through a whole video.
A channel bar sits along the lower edge of the frame and carries your name and mark without covering the shot. It is the graphic a viewer sees most often, so it is the one worth making yours.

How this one is built
Classic Corner Tag is built from 2 shapes, 1 image and 1 text layer, using a shadow 60 pixels deep. Its colours are near-black, white and red. Type is set in Inter.
The avatar, handle and live dot rise into place at 0.1s. The whole run is 10s at 60 frames a second.
It sits along the lower edge to the left of a 16:9 composition, spanning about 24% of the width at 470×108 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.
- Keep it out of the controlsYouTube draws its progress bar and controls over the bottom of the picture. A bar pinned flush to the edge is the one that gets covered.
- 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.
