In this video I'm going to show you a step-by-step tutorial on how to use Placeit
to do t-shirt videos for places like Pinterest and other social media accounts. Let's go!!
Thanks for joining me on this video. My Name Is Juna with Detour Shirts. I've been designing and
selling T-shirts online since 2005 and in this video I want to show you how to use an
app called Placeit. I did a video recently this one right here on how to do Pinterest pins and
one of the pins that I did was a video pin now you can do this using Placeit and a lot of you
asked to do this video or for me to do this video to show you step by step on how to use
Placeit that's what this video is about I'm going to show you how to use Placeit for videos as well
as mock-ups we're going to use some of the same kind of ideas for the mock-ups for the video so
it's the same size I'm going to show you how to size it right and show you how to make it step by
step you can easily follow along now there's only one free video on there if you're not a
member you're gonna have to sign up to use all the other ones but you can use the free account
to just try this one and I'll show you which one it is and how to find it and if you do like it I
you're going to have to pay a monthly fee to use all the different videos but there's lots
of places you can use videos and with TikTok being so popular right now in the short form
videos being very popular I think this could really help you if you're gonna do these for
social media accounts like TikTok and Pinterest and you know you got reels on Instagram and you
got shorts on YouTube and all this stuff so short form video is really uh something cool right now
and hot right now so you can use it for that as well as ads on Amazon so sometimes you can put
videos on Amazon as well to sell your t-shirts so a lot of good things and they don't just do
videos on places they could do lots of other stuff I'm going to show you some of the other stuff that
they do on there too so it's a great deal if you decide to do video you get all this other
bonus stuff so without any further ado let me go to Placeit and show you exactly how to do this
so here we are on placeit.net right there that's how you find it and this is the place that I use
personally for mock-ups for t-shirts you may have seen my Instagram I have T-shirts like this where
their mock-ups nice square ones that I put on there and then I just put my logo on the T-shirt
now I'm gonna do it for video but you're gonna do it exactly the same way for these so there's
a certain size that place it uses and we're going to do that we're going to show you how to do that
in Canva but you could do the certain size in Affinity Designer or whatever it is but before
we do that just look how many things are on here if we have Placeit. so we got the mock-ups we got
designs you can use this for t-shirt designs as well they also have logos that you can kind of
use for t-shirt designs but you can manipulate them and change them a little bit there's also
videos is what I'm going to show you we got gaming stuff as well which is really huge
We know video gaming is a big Niche especially in print on demand on Amazon so this is great
for that too and they'd also teach you how to design and market and and do all that kind of
stuff so place it 101 if you don't know how to use it there's tutorials here and everything so
um very cool I use it personally like I said and the pricing is right here if we scroll down you
can see it starts at 7 47 so if you do want to do it after this tutorial if you find out that this
is something that you really want to do you can do it here I'll put a link in the description as
well so you can see it's going to be an affiliate link so if you want to help me out you can you can
do that for Placeit but let me show you how this works first thing you're going to do you'll need
to sign up for a free account so just go here and then you're gonna have to create an account it's
just your name and password but it's going to make you so that make it so that you can use place it
so they do have an account but it's absolutely free this is the free account and you can try
their things right so that they can download and send it to your email your downloads and things
like that so uh and then I'm gonna log in here later on so that you can see how many things you
can actually use when you're signed up but first let's do the video so I'm gonna do free video
like this uh mock-ups right here and then it'll show you I thought there was just one but there's
one vertical and one horizontal so there's actually two for free this one's not a video and
I believe these are just plain oh this is a video I guess this is another one it's kind of creepy
so there's three um and then there's this is kind of a video this would be a cool one for tick tock
with some music so when I thought there was one there's actually a lot more for free so you can
try all of these for free and I'm going to show you how to do it so let's pick this one right here
which is the one I thought was the only one for free and the first thing you're gonna do is gonna
insert an image so it's gonna pull everything up with the video you can kind of see a preview of it
so like someone's sitting in a bus or something so like maybe for a bus driver or something like that
and then you can see here insert image so click on here and you're gonna see that the size you need
is 750 pixels by 1200 pixels now this is really important this is the size for all of them so
this is the size for video as well as mock-ups so let's use that 750 50 by 1200 what I'm going to do
is I'm going to go to Canva and show you a design I made in canva at 4500 by 5400 and I'm going to
show you how to size it down really easy in canva now you could use Affinity designer whatever app
you're using just make sure you size it down to this size otherwise it's not going to work
out so let's go to canva right now just really quickly so I can show you how to size it down
so here I am on canva canva.com I made a few t-shirt designs on here I have a lot of them
actually so let's click on here you can see this one's 4500 by 5400 I'm going to open it up
and I'm just going to copy everything so I'm going to scroll like this with my mouse and
hit command C like that and then I'm going to start a new one so let's go back to home
and I'll create a new design custom size remember it's 750 by tab 1200 right 750 by 1200 and hit
create new design and we're just going to hit V command V here and you can see it instantly fits
to this size right so now what I'm going to do is we don't need to put the background anymore let's
just click here and download so if you don't have canva Pro which I do you're going to have to be
able to knock this background out so hopefully you already have your background another thing
you could do is if you have a design that you already made with the background knocked out
you could just drag it in here and put it in here so you don't have to knock it out again but I'm
going to download this one I have my transparent background because I'm a pro version of canva if
you don't have canva I have a link to that in the description as well I'm going to download
this now that it's going to be 750 by 1200 I'm going to bring it back into place it so right here
I'm gonna do upload from my device right I'm here I'm gonna go to my downloads folder
and this is the design I just downloaded and you can see it fits perfectly now I'm gonna crop it
and while it's cropping it's thinking about how to do it it's going to pull up uh it and put it
on the T-shirt now we're going to be able to click the color or the shirt color right here it doesn't
look good on white but it does look good on black so I'm going to pick uh black here and it's going
to load it and there you go that's the video we can play a preview of it here we can play all
sides we can add more to this video as well so if you kind of want to Stack the videos you can do
that and you can add audio so this is something really cool as well um you can pick audio right
here and we can play some of these things what I would do because it's a 90s design is I would
find something that matches it so maybe some club music or something like that I'll go here and then
I'll play one of these things so you can listen to it let's see what if there's anything huh
disco in old school so I'll play that and then you can hear that and this is what it sounds like
and then we'll stop that so we can put that music inside so let's pick that select that
and now when we play this video Let's see play a preview of it
so it's going to take a little while to process so I'm going to skip through
the processing part and I'll show you what it looks like on on the other side
so here's the full video with the music
see how it works there and if you want to download that you just hit free download full video
so of course it's going to ask you if you want to do a subscription but if
not you can do the free download and if you haven't signed up yet it's going to ask you
to sign in right so I'm going to sign in and I'll show you what happens after that
so after you sign in you'll see this free download button so let's click it here
and you're gonna say please wait this works as well for the mock-ups so the flat t-shirt
mock-ups will also show this it's going to process it's going to take a little longer to process a
video than a t-shirt a flat photo t-shirt but it's going to go here to my downloads they're going to
send you an email as well as right here so once it shows up here you'll be able to download it
so you can go to your downloads you can see it's still processing because it's a video
so when it's done and you if you're still on place it it will show it right here to click
to download now this will download to your downloads folder or if you've gone away from
place it it will also send you an email and you can download it from the email so I'll
show you how to do it from here you can see it's downloading right here so once you've downloaded
it it will be in your downloads folder you can see it's kind of big 11 Megs but I'm going to
open it up here and you can see it's a really good size and you can play it again let's play
it right here you can see pretty good video and this is for free guys this one's for free so
you can put this on places like Pinterest or this could be an ad on Amazon or whatever it
is kind of advertising your T-shirt now I want to show you now that I have uh place it that I
signed in to place it I'm going to show you all the videos let me just type in t-shirt videos
not free
take a look at how many videos they have so you signed up for seven whatever it is a month
you can have videos every day for over a year check this out all of these are videos and they
work the same way you just have to use that 750 by 1200 and I'm gonna you can see all of these if
you hover over them they can show you what the video kind of a preview of what the videos are
and look at that 26 pages of videos so tons of them on here so if you really want to get into
the video space with your t-shirts and use this you know like I said like on TikTok or any of the
places that do video most of them are tall so they fit like the reels The TikTok and stuff like that
but you also got horizontal that can work for other things too so have fun with this some of
them are very creative some of them uh you know have this kind of thing on it look at that that
one's pretty cool right some of them are are very different so I would say scroll over all of these
and see if you like them before you buy before you sign up see if you would use any of these videos
and this is just the videos so I think even if you just use this for videos the seven dollars would
be worth it but you can see there's some really cool ones very and they keep adding more and more
every time and this is like I said just one of the many things that they do here you got mock-ups
um just regular flat mock-ups that aren't videos you got designs that you can use if we click here
you know some design t-shirt designs you you can use them just like this but this can be a
great template for starting points so if you want to maybe use that design but change the
change the words or do change the colors and do that so you could do that and as well as logos
you can see if you're doing one you can create a logo and stuff so I'm not going to show you
how to do all of this let me know if you want to learn how to do every single one of these I can
do a separate video for it but today was just about videos uh you can see how easy it was to
make a video and how many other cool stuff you also have intro videos if you're doing YouTube
slideshow videos Instagram and promo so lots of different other videos that you could do as well
so lots to learn here on Placeit like I said I use it personally for mock-ups I've been using
it for well over two years on Instagram and I use it all the time so it really helps with that and
you can use these mock-ups for stuff like Etsy as well as your own store and stuff like that
so have fun with this hopefully this video is really helpful for you now you know how to use
Placeit just really easy the hardest thing is to get it that right size that 750 by 1200 but
once you get that you just put that Design Your Design into it make sure don't you don't have a
you have a trans transparent background make sure the background is out but that's what you have to
do for print on demand anyway so you just have to size it down so hopefully this was really helpful
for you and now you can go make some videos and put it on social media so that is it for this
video hopefully this video is really helpful for you if it was make sure to give it a thumbs up
