Get Started by going to the Place It website

Go to Envato Placeit by clicking here.

This is the website we will be using to create this quick Intro Video. You will have the option to purchase just the video that you create or purchase a monthly or annual subscription. I personally started with the monthly subscription and I actually love it! I use this platform frequently, therefore paying $14.95 per month for unlimited access vs. $9.95 for only one video made much more sense to me!

Step 1. Find 3 Images to use for your Intro Video

You will need 3 great images to use for the video. I love to get Free Stock Photos from Pexels and Unsplash all of the time. Go to your favorite stock photo website and download the 3 images that you will be using.

Step 2. Make you Logo the right size

You will need to use a logo that is sized to 1500px x 1000px. I went to Canva in order to do this. 

• Login to Canva
• Click on > Custom Size
• Enter in 1500(Width) x 1000(Height) and be sure that (px) is selected. 
• Click > Create New Design
• Click > Uploads and upload your logo file. (You want to be sure that your logo has a transparent background.)
• Add your logo to the page and size the logo to fit.
• Download the logo as a (PNG) File Type and be sure to check the (Transparent Background) Box.

Step 3. You are now ready to create your Intro Video

• Go back to the Envato Placeit   template for the Intro Video by clicking here.
• Choose 3 short words that you will use for the video. My words are Bonjour, Boss, and Lady.
• Type your first word in text box 1 and choose the font and color that you would like to use. Choose a font that matches the overall look of your brand.
• Type your second word in text box 2 and choose the font and color that you would like to use. Choose a font that matches the overall look of your brand.
• Type your third word in text box 3 and choose the font and color that you would like to use. Choose a font that matches the overall look of your brand.
• Upload the 1500px x 1000px logo file in the Logo section.
• Add Photo 1 and crop to fit.
• Add Photo 2 and crop to fit.
• Add Photo 3 and crop to fit.
• Set your Playback Speed to .5, 1, or 1.5
• Add an Audio Track if you prefer. If you don’t want Audio, simply uncheck the box.
• Choose Background Color. Use colors that match your brand.
• Choose Text Layer 1 Color. Use colors that match your brand.
• Choose Text Layer 2 Color. Use colors that match your brand.
• Choose Text Layer 3 Color. Use colors that match your brand.

Step 4. Click Play and Wait!

Now that you are done editing all of the sections, click > Play All and wait.

You can go back and keep editing until you are satisfied with the finished product. Once you’re satisfied with the finished product, you will click on “Download"

Yahoo!!! Now you have a professional Intro Video! Give yourself a pat on the back. You did it!
