Adding media (images and video)

·
3

Some templates let you drop in your own images and background footage, like player photos, arena shots, or warmups. Here's how to get media that looks great.

Resolution and format

  • 1080p or higher for video, and high-resolution images (at least 1000px on the short side)
  • Standard formats: MP4 or MOV for video, PNG or JPG for images
  • Match the shape of the template: wide for video boards, tall and thin for ribbons

Length and looping

  • Keep clips short, a few seconds is usually enough
  • For ribbon and board loops, pick footage that loops cleanly so there's no jump when it restarts

Keep it calm behind text

Media that sits behind text should be low-contrast and not too busy, or your message gets lost. Darker, quieter clips read best.

Where to get it

  • Your own game and practice footage
  • Your athletics media library
  • Licensed stock (make sure you have the rights)

Quick checklist

  • High resolution
  • Short, and seamless if it loops
  • Not too busy behind text
  • You have the rights
