Adding a Logo

So now that my group has learned how to key frame and layer the video, we liked the idea of using our chosen Music Channel's logo in our video to give it more of a professional feel to the video. So we added the 'MTV Rocks' logo to the top left within our video due to our research we had done on other videos within MTV Rocks channel. Within this research it was easily shown that the MTV Rocks logo was at the top left of the screen as shown in the pictures below.


So to do this we had to import the image of the logo and save it as a PNG file as this would get rid of the white background within the image and turn it transparent. The image was then dragged into final cut and placed within the V2 column so that it would layer on top of the video.

When the image was first placed into the video it filled the whole canvas, so we checked the option for image and wire frame so that we could adjust the size of the image and place it where we wished. After this was done we attempted to stretch the image across the whole video but it would only go so far, so in the end we made multiple copy and placed them next to each other so that we could have the image through out the whole video. In doing this we gave our video a much more professional look and helped give it realism.
