Follow Everywhere

How this one is built

Follow Everywhere is built from 8 shapes, 8 sparkles and 6 text layers, using a 30-pixel backdrop blur behind frosted glass rimmed in white and a shadow 34 pixels deep. Its colours are white, near-black, red, teal and green. Type is set in Inter.

The title rises into place at 0.2s, the subtitle rises into place at 0.4s, the youTube chip scales up at 0.6s, the youTube label rises into place at 0.6s, and 8 further beats follow before the end. The whole run is 6s at 60 frames a second.

It sits through the middle of the frame of a 16:9 composition, spanning about 79% of the width at 1510×328 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.
• Place it where it readsA handle is only useful if it stays legible on a phone, which is where most of it is watched.
• 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.
