Livestream Announcement

A livestream announcement video template

A LIVE pill with a blinking dot, the time beside it, three poster-size title lines snapping in from the left, and a sticker-style guest photo landing top-right. Neon magenta on near-black, six seconds, vertical.

The format that makes people set a reminder

An announcement video has one job — say what, who and when in the first second, then give the viewer something to tap. This one puts the LIVE badge and the timeslot at the top before anything else moves, so the promise is on screen from frame one. The three title lines then snap in from the left in sequence, each one at 200px, which is large enough to read at a thumbnail size.

The middle line carries the accent colour, which is how the eye finds the hook without you writing anything extra. The guest photo lands top-right as a tilted sticker with a frame and a handle underneath, and the bottom of the frame holds a SET REMINDER button and a waiting count. Every one of those strings is yours to change; none of them is baked into an image.

The call to action
The SET REMINDER button and the waiting count settle at the bottom with the handle line, and the whole card holds still long enough to read.

Three steps to a stream promo

01
Write the three title lines
Line 1, line 2 and line 3 are separate controls, so you decide where the phrase breaks instead of fighting a text box. Line 2 is the one that takes the accent colour.
02
Drop the guest photo in
Upload a square photo of the guest, the host or the product. It lands in the tilted sticker frame with the same scrim and the same handle caption underneath.
03
Set the accent and export
The accent runs the LIVE pill, the second title line and the glow behind the frame. Pick it, choose your aspect, and export a file that is ready to post.

First second

The badge is on screen before anything else moves

The LIVE pill and the timeslot slide in ahead of the titles, with the dot blinking on a two-and-a-half-second cycle. That means someone who watches one second of the clip has already been told the important part.

Snap, not fade

Three lines that arrive with weight

Each title line comes in from the left and overshoots slightly before settling. Set at 200px in a condensed display face, they carry a festival-poster feel rather than a slide-deck one — which is what makes an announcement look like an event.

Your guest, your handle

A photo slot, not a placeholder graphic

The guest image is a named control. Swap it and the tilt, the frame, the scrim and the caption stay exactly as authored, so the sticker treatment applies to your photo rather than only to the demo one.

What you can change

Seven controls run the whole announcement. The timeslot, handle, button label and waiting count are text layers you can click on the canvas to edit directly.

Why not just post a graphic

A static announcement graphic gets one impression and no motion signal. The same information as a six-second vertical clip gets a feed slot that rewards video, holds a viewer through the whole message, and can be reposted as a story with the same file. This template is the cheapest way to get from the first to the second: you are writing three lines and uploading one photo.

Livestream Announcement: questions, answered

Is this announcement video template free?+

Yes to open and edit, and free accounts get 3 free 720p exports a day with no watermark. 1080p is a paid export. No watermark is added at any tier.

What aspect ratios can I export?+

9:16, 16:9, 1:1 and 4:5. It is authored vertical at 1080×1920 for stories and Reels, and the layout retargets to the other three instead of cropping the guest photo out of frame.

Can I change the copy and the colours?+

All three title lines, the accent colour, the type size and the guest photo are named controls, and the smaller strings — the timeslot, the handle, the button label, the waiting count — are text layers you click and edit on the canvas.

Do I need After Effects?+

No. Nothing to install, no project file, no plugin. It renders in the browser and exports an MP4 directly.

How long is the clip?+

Six seconds, with the title fully landed by 2.7s so it works as a still poster too. The speed control runs 0.5× to 2× if you need a different length.
