Free animated arrow overlay for your videos

An arrow that draws itself toward the thing you are talking about, a hand-drawn circle around it, or focus brackets. Pick one below, set its colour, thickness and label, and export it with a transparent background.

Exported free with a small VidTraffic mark in the corner. Open it in the full editor — free with a Google sign-in — for no mark, all 216 templates, effects, and several overlays at once.

How it works

  1. Pick an arrow or a circle

    Curved, hand-drawn, straight or block arrows, a circle, focus brackets or a scribbled underline.

  2. Set it up

    Choose the colour, thickness and a label like “Click here”.

  3. Export and place it

    Export a transparent file and lay it over your video at the moment you point.

Questions

Does it 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, choose the MP4 on green and key the green out.

Can I point the arrow at an exact spot?

In the full editor you drag the arrow by its two ends, over a screenshot of your video, so it points exactly where you want. This page exports it as drawn.

Is there a watermark?

Exports from this page carry a small VidTraffic mark in the bottom corner. The full editor adds none — it is free too; you sign in with Google to use it.

Does it have sound?

Yes, unless you switch it off: clicks, dings and swishes timed to the overlay, in the exported file. The sounds are made by VidTraffic, so there is nothing to license.

Do I have to upload anything?

No. It is drawn and exported in your browser. Nothing you type here is sent to us.
