I got a scenario.


If a client wants to send me their own custom made title(s) to use for a production, what file format does it need to be in? I imagine it would be a png file if I'm not wrong? What if it has an animation?


Thank you!

static title yes as image is possible ( into a GT title)

with animation , probably best as a video and convert to an image sequence (or if they can send that even better) and put that in a GT title or as a image sequence input

all depends if text needs to be added/changed during production

Best imo is make the title based on the design partially images, partially GT graphics and text fields

Gotcha. I mean, I could technically import a .png file and size it up and assign it to an overlay, correct? For a static image..


But if they created an animation, they would have to save the file as a xml? I just want to clarify. Thanks again!

this is a very bad scenario imho (unless you want troubles)

ask your clients graphics elements like logos, presentation graphic charter including fonts, colors, etc... and create all the visuals yourself

Yes upsizing an image will look good NOT !

why would you have to save as a xml file? check out some of the vMix videos regarding image sequenses
