Follow Rail Vertical

How this one is built

Follow Rail Vertical is built from 9 images, 6 text layers, 2 shapes and 2 press rings, using a red gradient and a shadow 34 pixels deep. Its colours are white, near-black and red. Type is set in Inter.

The avatar and follow badge scale up at 0.2s, the follow mark and heart scale up at 0.4s, the likes and comment scale up at 0.6s, the comments and bell scale up at 0.7s, and 12 further beats follow before the end. The whole run is 6s at 60 frames a second.

It sits across the lower third of a vertical composition, spanning about 64% of the width at 687×1137 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.
