- Welcome to Everyday Experiments with InVideo,
where we bring you raw experiments,
straight from our creative team,
that look to push the envelope
and create something extraordinary,
out of the ordinary.
In this episode,
I'm gonna show you the step-by-step process
to create an epic logo reveal
like the one you just saw.
If you want to follow along,
all you have to do is go to invideo.io
and sign up for a free account
if you haven't already done so.
And with that, let's go ahead and get started.
I'm on the home screen of Invideo now,
and I'm going to go ahead and select blank canvas,
and then I'm going to select the square size.
This is going to be a video that could go on Instagram
so we're going to go ahead and make it a square.
So I'm just going to hit and Make A Video
and then once the project is loaded,
the first thing you want to do is come to the Folders tab
on the side and create a new folder just so you can keep
everything organized.
So this folder, I'm going to call Logo Reveal.
And then I'm going to click on that folder and go ahead
and upload the image and the music that I want to use.
So those are uploading now.
If you don't have your own image or music,
you can go to the Image tab on the side here,
and then you can search through some stock photos
and find something really cool that you want to use.
And then for music,
you can go to the Music tab and same thing.
You can find some cool stock music.
But because I already knew the image
and music I wanted to use,
I just went ahead and uploaded them.
All right, so now I'm going to go ahead
and delete the title and the logo that are automatically
put on the canvas.
I just want to start with a completely blank canvas
and I'm also gonna turn it white
because that's what I want the background color to be
so I'm just coming up to canvas color on the top here
and then dragging that over to white.
And then I'm gonna go ahead and come back to my folder,
I'm gonna click on my eye image,
which is just gonna put it on the canvas for me.
And then I'm gonna drag it out to make it the size
that I want it so I want it to take up the whole canvas.
And also, I know I want this entire video
to be about 10 seconds.
So I'm going to just come over to the timeline
and edit the duration.
We'll make that 10 seconds.
So now it's expanded,
as you can see,
and then they have a music track that they automatically
put in there, but I want to add my own,
so I'm just coming over to my audio file
and then Add As Background Music, Replace Music,
because I don't need the music
that they automatically put in.
The next thing I'm going to do is come over
to the mask tool, which you can find on the side.
And then I'm gonna go ahead and search for a square mask.
I want just the basic square with the curved edges.
Here it is right there.
And then I'm gonna use these masks to create that pattern
that you saw, that kind of forms an overlay over the image.
So I'm going to make this smaller,
and then I'm using the image that I have in the background
as a reference right now.
So I know I want a square right over the eye,
right about there.
And then I'm gonna need quite a few more masks
that are the exact same size.
So what I'm going to do is just copy and paste that mask
and then drag it to the side and start to create
that arrangement that I want.
Control C, Control B, again.
(upbeat music)
Okay, great so there's my first row
and then I'm just going to keep going,
copying and pasting the mask to create that really cool
arrangement that you saw.
Okay, now I want to add a few of the triangle masks
that you saw in the arrangement.
So I'm going to go ahead and search triangle.
So here's the one I want.
So it's kind of like a square cut diagonally.
So I'm going to add that into the arrangement a few times,
which is gonna look really cool.
I want to drag it down so it's about the same size
as the squares.
And then let's see, we can put one in the corner here
and then let's go ahead and copy that and paste it.
And then this one I'm gonna rotate so that it kind of
fits in to the grid again.
So I can use the top here just to rotate it.
If I rotate it 180 that means I've rotated it exactly
halfway around.
So when you're rotating,
you want to make sure you hit either 90 or 180.
I'm gonna add in another triangle.
This one, I'm gonna go ahead and rotate 90 degrees.
All right, now I'm gonna go back to my folders
and now I'm gonna start to drag the image onto the masks.
So I'm going to start with the mask that's right
in the middle of the eye.
I'm gonna drag the image onto there.
And then as you can see, when I first drag it on,
the image is really small on there
and I want it to be bigger.
So I'm going to go to edit mask and then pull it out.
I want the eye to be kind of right in the middle there.
And again, I can use the image in the background
as reference.
Okay, great.
And then I'm going to go ahead and delete the image
in the back because now I have this mask
to use as reference and I want the canvas
to be just plain white.
So I'm going to delete this.
All right, so now, as you can see,
I have the white canvas and I'm gonna start adding
the image into all of the masks.
So again, drag it onto the next one.
Edit mask.
Make it bigger and then I'm lining it up
with the image on the first mask.
And I'm going to just repeat that process for every single
one of the masks.
(soft, upbeat music)
Okay, so now I have the entire image in place in the masks.
So the next step is gonna be to sync the masks
with the music so that they come in
as the music is playing, which is a really cool fact.
So what we're gonna do is hover over the scene
and then hit Timeline.
And now you can see each mask separately.
And then I'm gonna go ahead and zoom in a little bit closer.
And you can see on the bottom, we have our music track.
And then if I click on each mask individually
on the timeline,
it highlights it up on my canvas,
or I can go ahead and click on one on the canvas
and then it will select it for me down on the timeline.
So I know I want this corner one to come in on the first hit
of the music so I'm gonna go ahead and sync it up
just by dragging it out.
All right.
And then the next hit in the music doesn't come
for a little while so I'm gonna drag the cursor
over to that point.
And then I want this next one to come in on that beat
so I'm gonna click that on the canvas.
And again, just drag it to the point where my cursor is now.
All right, and then these next hits are happening
really quickly so I'm gonna zoom in a little bit more
so I can see better.
So I'm just gonna repeat this process for all of the masks.
(soft, upbeat music)
And I know I want the middle part of the eye to be the last
thing to come in.
So I'm just kind of working around it and having all of the
other masks come in first.
Okay, so now I'm doing my last mask,
which is the focal point of the image,
the middle of the eye.
Dragging that out to where I want it to come in
so now you can see they're all coming in
at different points.
All right, and then just kind of, as a finishing touch,
what we're going to do is add some animation.
So there's one note that kind of rings out.
So for that mask that comes in on that note,
we're going to add a little animation that kind of goes
with the music.
So I'm gonna click on that mask and then hit Animate
at the top, and then we're gonna animate in
so we want it to kind of bounce in,
a lot of really cool animations to choose from.
Let's go with this one for now.
And then I think I'm gonna make it a little bit shorter
and then that's it.
You're good to go.
And now all you have to do is come up to the top right
corner and hit Download and Share, and then hit export.
And your video will be ready to go.
