How to Watermark Videos for Instagram & TikTok
Social media moves fast. Ensure your viral moments are credited to you by adding a watermark before you post.
The Challenge with Vertical Video
Instagram Reels and TikToks have UI elements (buttons, captions, likes) covering the edges of the screen. Placing a watermark in the wrong spot means it might get covered up or cropped out.
Best Placement Strategy
For vertical videos (9:16 aspect ratio), the "Safe Zone" is generally in the center-middle or slightly elevated. Avoid the very bottom (captions) and the far right (action buttons).
