Can I add a video background instead of an image?

Yes, if you are on any of our paid plans you can use video backgrounds for your videos instead of still images.

FAQ

#1 - Is there a video size limit?

We only accept videos smaller than 30MB at this stage.

#2 - What if my video has audio?

If the video you upload has existing background sound/audio, when you click the "Next" button after adding your animation, it'll ask you to select which audio to render as the main background audio for your video (to avoid overlapping audio). 

You'll see an example of this below (on/off switches for either the sound effect of your selected animation, or your background video's existing audio).

#3 - Does the length/duration of my video matter?

No, as long as your video is <30MB then it will work. The animation you select will automatically loop for the duration of your video. You can learn more about controlling loops and the duration of your video by clicking here.
