are you ready to make your video intro then let's make it happen we're gonna start with the logo from your ultimate vacation calm that Bethany my wife designed and what we want to do is take her logo and create an intro video that looks like this one you [Music] what you're looking at here is a bunch of sample intro videos that I made just to give you a general idea of what you're able to do each one of these took roughly five minutes to make and all of them were free does everything is done online there's no software to download no system requirements as long as you have a browser and access to the Internet you can make these all day long for free there are hundreds of different video options to choose from the ones you see here just the ones I thought would work best with Bethany's logo all the intro videos have matching audio in the background and the length of the intro videos is as little as 5 to 7 seconds all the way up to 30 seconds just depending on what your personal needs are what's nice is you can create as many intro videos as you like and they're stored online so at any point in the future you want to go back and access and they're available for you now that we've reviewed a bunch of sample intro videos using Bethany's logo we're ready to create our own video intro to do that we first need to go to our browser in my case I use Google Chrome and then you want to type in web you accom front / render forest then you hit enter when you hit enter it'll take you to the web unit of foundation partner page with render forest render force comm is when we're going to make our free intro videos but if at any point you decide to purchase a high-res version a portion of those proceeds will go directly to the web Yoda Foundation and in turn the web UI foundation will use a hundred percent of those proceeds to create more free training like the video you're watching now to get started click on the visit render force com button this takes us to the render force calm sign-in page to make free intro videos at render force calm all we need is an account so to do that we're going to click on sign-in at the top right and below the sign-in button it says sign up so we're going to click on sign up to create an account now in this case we're setting up Bethany's account for her website URL to it vacation com so we chose a title the email and then a password next we need to agree to render force terms so we click the box there and now we click the sign up button at this point we have successfully registered and now we just need to activate our account to do this we need to go to our email and look for an email from render forest open that email and just click the verify email button that'll take you back to render force calm and tells us that we have successfully activated our account now we can simply the login button and then from here enter our email and password and click sign in and we're ready to get started making our free intro video now to get to the section where we can make intro videos the easiest way is to click on Explorer and then choose intro maker at this point if you scroll down you'll notice there's a number of samples when you move your mouse across them they don't really do anything you can push the play and watch them but what I found if I scroll back up and click on the create Now button the samples it shows here when you put your mouse over it gives you some idea what it's going to do so let's go ahead and make a sample video just to see how this works so let's click on the hot explosion logo reveal it may have a different one for you when you come there but we're going to do this as sample now we'll click on the create now and it tries to walk us through the steps you can click on skip because I'm going to show you those steps then on the right hand side where it says your logo here we'll click on that we'll choose upload and then you want to go to the folder that has your own personal logo now if you don't have your own logo yet you can click on the link at the top right and it'll take you to a video on how to create your own free logo as well we'll click on the logo click on open and now we have the ability to make it bigger or smaller it automatically fit just fine so we'll hit confirm and notice our logo is now there and now for the text I find entering it over here works better so I'm going to put your ultimate vacation I can hit enter saving changes now I can click on preview and I can click on free preview and it doesn't take too long sometimes there's a little queue where you're gonna be next and then it'll prepare to make your video shouldn't take too long and then I'll start the exporting process which is basically creating the final product and by default this is gonna send us an email whenever it's ready well we're sitting here waiting on it so we can see it now if we scroll down we can hit the play button just review it now this is our free video and notice it has their little mark on the side and when you play it you can hear them in the background saying render force calm that's kind of what you're going to get if you're going to get a free version now at the top right we can click on our account and we can click on my videos you'll see that videos now been added now the question here is suppose this is fine you want to use this but how do you get to download it because they make it kind of cryptic to get to where you can download it well the answer to that is you click on preview and then you click on this icon right here at the bottom right and then it comes up with a download option you click on download and now you have your free download and you can open that in the folder and sure enough when you run it there's your free video so we've made a sample and we've seen how to download a free sample and now we're ready to make the real one for Bethany's website so we'll close the video preview we'll go back to Explorer choose intro maker choose create now and the one that we decided on for Bethany's is going to be this simple 3d logo pack so we'll click on that we'll choose create now now at this point the logo is already in there so when we click on your logo here we can just go to the media library and we can select our logo and at the bottom right choose insert at this point we can make it bigger or smaller in this case we can make it a little bit bigger to make it take up more space we don't want to be too big so that took us over the edge so we'll take it back a little bit we'll click on confirm and then we'll type the same thing over here your ultimate vacation hit enter saving changes now we can go to the preview and click on the preview and now we got to go through the same process the video queueing again that take too terribly long now that's preparing our media getting ready to create it for us and now it's exporting the final result now the export can take a little bit longer than you're seeing here I sped it up just a tiny bit just so we could get through it a little faster but it's really not that much of a delay now in the meantime I'm going to turn off email notifications because I don't want them to be every single time I make one shot if I email I can just look into my account and see when it's ready or if I'm sitting here I'll know that it's ready so now we can click on watch and here's our sample video simple easy to the point I'm happy with it but in our case since I want to use this as a real product for a YouTube video which you've already seen it in this one or in Bethany's website I'm probably not going to want the render force on the side and I probably don't want the sound in the background to say render force comm so to meet my needs I'm actually going to purchase one and I just want to show you how that works as you can see the process as well now for simplicity I go ahead and go back to my account and I choose my videos so here I'm ready to export this and for my purposes I'm going to export as 1080p but most people made use 720 and it'll cost a little bit less if we click on that we'll see that that's going to be giving us the three different choices and it so I guess it really doesn't matter which one of those we clicked on if I click on this one I get the same three choices so to get a 1080p I can spend $19.99 or I can get a lower version you're really not going to want the one down here if you're trying to use this for post-production for example for your website or if you're going to use it for a YouTube video like we're doing so now I'm going to click on the Buy button and you'll enter information you click on pay at this point I will go back to your account and it'll start preparing your media so that you can download it so you see now it's creating the high-res version so it has to go through the process again instead of just having a preview and now it's into the export mode and the export again takes a little bit longer I've sped it up a tiny bit in here because it's exporting a 1080p version a high-res HD version and said of just a little preview that we had obviously you expect it might take a little bit longer but we're not talking about ten or fifteen minutes you're talking about one or two minutes now the export process is complete our video has been successfully rendered took a little over two minutes to do that and we're ready to download and now we can simply click the download button to get access to our new video at this point it starts downloading at the corner just like the other one did and when it's complete which it already is we can click on show in folder and now we can look at the new high-res version [Music] and it's clear that's a lot better now if we make it even bigger let's play that again just to see really what we're looking at [Music] now again you don't have to purchase obviously there's no requirement you do that but for the amount of money we're talking about if you're trying to make a professional intro for a youtube video some kind of other presentation or for a website you really just can't deny how amazing this product is how quickly it made this remember there's hundreds of different ones to choose from to meet your exact needs takes you a couple of minutes to make it you know 15 20 minutes you're done out the door and for like 20 dollars that's all you have into it so it's really worth considering now if we close that and go back to the website at any time if you log into your account and you go to my videos you'll notice that now the download for that particular one is now activated you scroll down you can see that the other one is still not activated so you permanently have access to this download in case at some point you need to download it again from a different location so I already see a recurring question that's going to come up and that's how can I embed this in my own website well let's go ahead and embed it in Bethany's your ultimate vacation website so we're going to open in a new tab we're going to go to your ultimate vacation com front slash login so we can log in to the backend now if you're not using a wordpress website then you're gonna have to find an alternate solution so we'll click on login and now we're logged into Bethany's website on the left hand side we're going to choose media add new select files and it's going to be in your download folders if you just created it so we'll click on the new one that's right there the 1080p I'll choose open and now we can click back on media and we'll see that it's been added to our library now I want to click on that and over here where it has the URL I want to select that URL and then I want to copy it to the clipboard now I can close that and we're ready to add it to a page so we're gonna go to the left and click on pages and we're gonna scroll down to Bethany's homepage now her pages are built with element or page builder again if you're not using an element or page builder you'll need to have an alternate solution one alternate solution may be to use element or page builder it's free it's great we have a video that shows you exactly how to do that so if you click on this link up here it shows you everything you need to know to build Bethany's website the one we're looking at now and includes everything you need to know about Elementor well click on home edit with element or and her website currently has this intro we're going to be changing that intro out just for this example so we're going to choose this section by clicking right there we're gonna go to style and right here is a video link to a YouTube video we're gonna replace that with the one that we just created well click on update well create a new tab we'll go back to her website your ultimate vacation calm and just like that the video intro has been added to her website now I want to discuss the two biggest mistakes people make when using intro videos the first of those is putting the intro at the very beginning of your video and I can tell you I am guilty of that until I made this video what you really need to do is start your YouTube videos with what you plan to accomplish then follow it with the video intro and then follow it with the rest of the content the second mistake is making the video intro too long you really don't want it any longer than say 7 to 10 seconds anything more than that and you're just taking away from the point of the video you just want to take a chance your viewers jump and ship too soon I mean they came here for the content the bells and whistles are kind of secondary so I truly hope I've given you all the information you need to make your own professional intro videos now if there's something that I didn't mention or you have questions please leave them below I'd be more than happy to answer them for you and if I don't know the answer I'll say hey I don't know but if I do know the answer or I can find the answer I'll give it to you and maybe we can work on it together now I really enjoy doing this and really the only payment I'm looking for if I could get to subscribe and possibly a like out of this it'd be super helpful outside of that I hope you have a great day peace out
