- Where do I get an animated subscribe button for my video?
- How do I add an arrow that points at something in my video?
- How do I make a lower third with my name on it?
- Is there a subscribe animation with a transparent background?
The overlays every video needs, in one place
A subscribe button that gets clicked and turns to “Subscribed”, a bell that rings, an arrow that draws itself toward the thing you are talking about, a circle around it, your name in a lower third, a chapter card, a countdown. Each one is a template you can change, not a fixed clip someone else made.
There are 216 of them in 13 families: Basics, Subscribe, Callouts, Lower thirds, Titles and text, Social, Reactions, Progress and timers, End screens, Cinematic, Comic and fun, App style, and Gaming and music. Search by what you need — “arrow”, “sponsor”, “countdown” — and drop it on the canvas.
Several overlays, timed together, in one file
Start from an empty 16:9 or 9:16 frame. Add as many pieces as the moment needs, drag them where they belong, resize and turn them, and set when each one appears on a timeline. An arrow is pulled by its two ends, so it points exactly where you want it.
To aim at the right spot, paste or drop a screenshot of your video behind the canvas. It is only there while you work; it never ends up in the file you export.
Effects that work on every template
Any piece can take an entrance, a loop while it is on screen, an exit and a filter: 26 ways in and out, 22 loops, 14 filters and 6 easings, or one of 22 ready-made styles such as Glitch, Neon or Comic. They combine with every template, so the same subscribe button can drop and bounce in one video and slide in with a glow in the next.
Exported with a transparent background
The export is one file: a WebM video that keeps its transparency, a sequence of transparent PNG frames that any editor can import as an image sequence, or an MP4 on a chroma-green background for editors that key out green. It comes out at 1920×1080 or 1080×1920, at 30 or 60 frames a second.
It is drawn and encoded on your own computer. The overlay, your scene and any picture you add stay in your browser and are not sent to us.
How it works
Pick a template
Search the library or open a family, and click a template — or drag it onto the canvas where you want it.
Make it yours
Change the words, colours, size and speed. Drag it into place, add more pieces, give each an effect, and set when it appears.
Export and drop it in
Export one transparent file and lay it over your video in your editor, at the moment you set.

Frequently asked questions
Is the overlay maker free?
Yes. There is a free plan — sign in with Google to start, with no card.
Does the export have a transparent background?
Yes. The WebM export keeps its transparency, and the PNG sequence is transparent frame by frame. If your editor does not read transparent video, export the MP4 on green and key out the green.
Which editors does it work with?
Any editor that can place one video over another. Use the WebM where your editor reads transparent WebM, the PNG sequence where it imports image sequences, or the green-screen MP4 where it can key out a colour.
Can I make an animated subscribe button with my own text and colours?
Yes. Change the button's words, what it says after the click, its colours, its shape and its speed, or give it an effect of your own.
Does it work for Shorts?
Yes. Switch the frame to 9:16 and the export comes out at 1080×1920.
Does it have sound?
Yes. The subscribe button clicks, the bell dings, an arrow swishes in — each sound timed to its overlay, and you can turn any of them down, off, or add one. It goes in the WebM or MP4, as a sound.wav beside the PNG frames, or as a separate file. The sounds are made by VidTraffic, so there is nothing to license.
Can I put my logo in it?
Yes. Add a picture from your computer — a logo, a photo — and place it like any other piece. It stays in your browser.
Is my video uploaded?
No. You never upload your video. If you add a screenshot to aim by, it stays in your browser and is not part of the export.
