How to put a badge in the corner saying where the clip came from
Tell Vizard Agent what the badge should say and where it goes. It tests several sizes and positions against real frames before choosing one, renders the badge across the whole video and checks it on every shot rather than on the opening one, and compares icon options instead of taking the first thing that looks roughly right.
What do you type into Vizard Agent?
Tell Vizard Agent that it runs throughout, in those words. A badge added to the opening of a video is a title; a badge that persists to the end is a source mark, and those are two quite different requests that look almost identical written down in a single sentence.
Prompt
What does Vizard Agent actually do?
The work is not drawing the badge. It is making sure the badge reads on every shot the video contains. On a real commentary edit that needed a persistent source badge, Vizard Agent built things in more than one version and compared them rather than judging each in isolation. In the session behind this article it:
- Measured the graphic sizes already in the cut, then built three sizes of the element and compared them.
- Checked the graphic's timeline, tested two positions on real frames, and rendered with the graphic moved and its display extended.
- Built the flashing badge and checked it across the whole video, because a mark that sits well on the opening shot can land on a face, a caption or a bright window later.
- Rebuilt it in red with a camera icon, then enlarged the icon.
- Checked whether an icon font was installed at all, compared three icon options side by side, and re-checked the badge throughout with the chosen one.
When does this not work well?
Corners are busy places on a phone. Platform interfaces cover them, captions creep towards them, and a badge that survives everything in your own edit can still end up hidden behind a follow button or a progress bar once the video is posted. Vertical crops tighten the safe area, and a flashing badge on a fast cut reads as an error.
Common questions
How long should the wording be? Three or four words. Vizard Agent will tell you if it is too long.
Will it cover anything? Vizard Agent checks every shot and moves it if it does.
What if my icon is not available? Vizard Agent checks for an icon font and offers alternatives.
