Live Now Bar 4K
Live badge with a pulsing dot and viewer count.

How this one is built
Live Now Bar 4K is built from 3 shapes, 3 text layers and 1 image, using a 54-pixel backdrop blur behind frosted glass rimmed in white, a red gradient and a shadow 140 pixels deep. Its colours are near-black, white and red. Type is set in Inter.
The bar rises into place at 0.1s, the live badge and live label scale up at 0.6s, the pulse dot scales up at 0.7s, the channel rises into place at 0.7s, and 2 further beats follow before the end. The whole run is 6s at 60 frames a second.
It sits along the top to the left of a 16:9 composition, spanning about 51% of the width at 1960×236 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 clear of the edgesWhere an overlay can sit without colliding with the player, the end screen or a caption.
- YouTube Overlay MakerBuild an overlay from nothing, with the transparency decided by you rather than inherited.
- 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.
