Add Text and Graphic Overlays

Adding text and graphic overlays is a powerful way to make your visuals more engaging and informative. Overlays allow you to highlight key messages, showcase product features, or reinforce your brand identity directly on the image or video. Using well-designed text and graphics can guide the viewer’s attention, increase recall, and make your content more shareable across social media and marketing channels.

Visuals alone can capture attention, but overlays communicate context, promotions, or calls to action clearly. For example, adding a “New Arrival” tag, pricing, or a short tagline can help your audience quickly understand the value of your product. When used strategically, overlays improve engagement, conversions, and brand recognition.

Use Cases​

Promotional Campaigns

Suppose you are launching a summer sale collection. You can add text overlays, such as “50% Off” or “Limited Time Offer,” and combine them with graphics, like banners or tags. This immediately communicates the promotion to viewers and increases the likelihood of clicks or purchases.

Product Features Highlight

For a clothing brand, you can overlay text and graphics to showcase key features of your apparel. For example, for a winter coat, you might add tags like “Waterproof,” “Insulated,” or “Eco-Friendly Material.” For a dress, you could highlight “Stretch Fabric,” “Machine Washable,” or “Available in Multiple Colors.” This helps viewers quickly understand the product’s benefits while keeping the visuals clean and engaging, making them ideal for social media posts, ads, or e-commerce listings.
