Introduction

Adding brand elements like logos and overlay styles elevates your video content to new levels of professionalism. This tutorial will guide you through the process of integrating logos and custom text assets, ensuring your brand shines through in every frame. For this tutorial, we’ll add Kyvos’ branding to a video through image and text assets and see how those can be modified to enhance the content of raw footage. Although this is a quick example, the possibilities are endless! We look forward to seeing your experiments with these building blocks.
