How to Make an outro for free 

This is seriously like the most helpful video I've ever seen on RU-vid. I don't think I'd have ever been able to make an awesome and professional looking outro thanks to you. Awesome stuff bro, keep it up. :D

yes, and in my opinion one of the best free softwares out

Thank you for putting the steps in the description. It really helps.

Click on the textbox (text) using the text tool (the tool that looks like an "A"), highlight the text, then there should be a box over the textbox that is filled with your foreground color (black), click on that, and you can adjust the color, then click done, and you've changed the color for the text.

yeah thanks :D it was pretty early in the mourning when I made this. 5:00AM if i recall correctly.

Damn everything was going smoothly right up until the background part. My background didn't cover everything, it didn't cover anything. It just showed up as a very tiny image. Gotta figure this out!

alright I will, it will probably be out by Monday because I'm taking Sunday off. Sorry I didn't make a tutorial on this sooner, it was heavily requested but I've been putting it off.

thanks for notifying me, I'll add one later today

If it doesn't work than you could use the freemake video converter or any video converter for that matter and convert it to avi and import it to wax, it's really the only way to get video into your outro, however, the trial of sony vegas should work

BTW everyone who has got stuck with the picture in picture part of this AMAZING video wat u gotta do on i movie is click on imovie at the TOP LEFT of the screen and then go to system preferences then make shore the show advanced tools box has a tick in it if not then just click on it. (i am happy 2 help)

I left a few links in the description; wax, or the trial version of sony vegas pro, I highly suggest the trial of sony vegas pro though

yes but I prefer to work with 1080p because it allows me more room to work with, even though I usually decompress the file to 720p

slight change of plans, wax wouldn't accept my jpeg file, so after an hour of messing around with codecs, I just decided to save myself some time and show you how to do it with sony vegas pro (the trial) it's free, and its 10 times easier than wax, so I think you'll like the video, sorry if you already downloaded wax though

wow thanks, I'll make sure I'll do my best to get that video out ASAP

the editor would be iMovie and once you have a new project opened you go to iMovie at the top-right and then go to preferences once that is open click show advanced tools, then once you have your photo you photo drag it into the project that you made and then you put your video that you want in your all good :)

no but it does work with the trial of sony vegas pro which is a free windows program and I made a video on it, it's the second link in the description

I have a question can you do step 5 with windows movie maker and if yes please make a tutorial

Wax is compatible with avi, so just go onto google and download format factory, and transfer your video file to an avi

Oh my god thank you so much i have been looking everywhere for tutorials and yours is the most easiest to do. Thank you so much, subscribed :)

no I exported it to a jpeg. All you have to do is go into gimp, open up your file, click file, click export. Then just drag the image into imovie (the .jpeg one) And I'm sort of confused by your last 2 sentences.

I left links in the description, two movie editing softwares that I suggest are the trial of sony vegas pro, and wax. the trial of sony vegas pro works better so I suggest using that

I'm pretty sure using images from iconspedia isn't copyrighted, that's why I put a link to it in the description. However, I use google images all the time in most of my videos, and I have no copyright strikes/claims AND I'm partnered as well. So don't worry about it :D, but if you want to be extra careful then be my guest (I'm just saying it isn't quite necessary)

select the layer that contains the twitter icon, go on layer, and select scale image. then scale the image to whatever you want the size to be.

THANKS ALOT MAN I HAD NO TROUBLE MAKING IT AFTER WATCHING YOUR VIDEO THANKS ALOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This tutorial is very complete, thanks it was very useful for me who is thinking about creating a youtube channel!

I dont get how you dont have 100 000 subs yet?! you are awesome!!

Thanks so much I already made an intro but I really always wanted to add my own music for my videos. I will make to shout out to you this weekend!

I don't have a Mac this is making me mad! Like if u agree we will start rampaging this guy lol...

Figured it out like the boss I am. ;)

yes you can use any picture, or picture website. It is completely up to you, and it is only limited by your creativity.

yes the picture in picture feature is only available in later versions. If you are having trouble then check out the second link in the description

are you in Imovie or sony vegas?

for my mac I use Imove, for my windows I use the trial of sony vegas pro. Check it out, it's the second link in the description.

ya but you gotta download the trial of sony vegas or a movie editor called wax, see the description for details

for which one? the movie editor or gimp

How can we change the size of the backround? I tried but theres no 1080 pixels option in print scale

Omg thanks for this vid been looking how to do this forever it was really helpful thanks again

just uploaded the template, sorry it took so long, I was quite busy this week

I'm actually trying to get one STILL on my other channel, I posted like 3 videos all with tv show material, movie clips, songs, and I MONETIZED IT!, and still no copyright strikes? I have no clue what's going on, but I'm still working on getting copy right strikes, I just posted this video because I felt like posting a video on how to make an outro

When I put the capture of my youtube video for the size, it doesn't come out the size that it is in the snapshot, it just comes out smaller HELP

yeah I realized wax was a shitty program the minute it took 2 hours to render a 4 second video. Check out the second link in the description for a better program (also free)

oh god you helped me so much lol this is so much information, but it looks really exciting!! because i'll be one of those newbies pretty soon.

Galactic has a tutorial on the newer version of Vegas pro. Try to see if you can find it on his channel

how do you make that type of thing where your guy is standing there and on top it says the channel?

go into windows, then click Histogram, or recently closed docks, and then histogram

When i try to change my background it automatic makes it small,and when i resize it it looks crap,what to do?:(

yeah I do use Imovie

did you download the template? it's the first link in the description. you won't have to delete the background if you downloaded it.

all that's coming up in iMovie is Replace, Insert, Audio Only or Cancel

yo guys how do i add my video form wax to gimp so i can make a motion vid for my outro. ;/ gimp doesnt let me put a vid on it? help! xD

Thanks a lot for the video, its one of the most helpful tutorial videos I've found on youtube, keep up the good work!

Awesome Video Bro, I only have 2 questions. Does this software work for Lower Thirds animations and second what type of OS or software do you use to make your icons on your desktop at the bottom of your Task bar that moves like that at 12:20 on your video. I just bought myself a Elgato HD it should be here tomorrow for roughly $115. So excited to get this channel up and working

Thanks for making this video. It really helped me for my outro :'3

May want to add an annotation when you say "make the height 920" but actually mean 1920

it wasnt excactly that i wondered thought... what i really wondered was how you put a video in the outro on windows

um, quick question...so i made the template how i wanted it to look. but when i open IMovie and try to put the picture in there is no green plus(aka the add button). the format is still a .xcf file just like yours so how come it won't go into IMovie?

love your turtorial man! but I was wondering how to you make the frame of your text box go away, once you create it? that yellow and black line is still there...

yeah I use imovie 2012 that might be why, just follow the second link in the description then

GalacticsTutorials How do I get that screen shot program that you were using in this video???

I don't have iMovie is there any more softwares I could use?

you really don't need a screen shot, I just used that for an example, but if you want that template, just check the first link in the description, and you can download it along with a background, twitter, facebook, and subscribe icon

thank you so much! i really needed to learn how to do this!

I don't believe that works, because it doesn't have the picture in picture feature. However, I believe wax works, It's in the description and it's a free movie editing software

:) do you have the histogram window open?

Um There us no editing spot where it shows spotlight :( plz help or tell me where it is but I am still looking :)

You don't explain anything! How did get the picture on picture option to pop up?!?!

Thank you so much. And for people who have Windows. Use Wax Video Editor Sofware. I use it and its awesome :)

Is there any way to put the video in the video with Windows Live Movie Maker?

well I don't enjoy getting sued for copyrighted music...(idk that is just a preference of mine) also that website is quite resourceful, and I can assure you that I am not a hobo.

I'm making a video on how to do that this Monday, It's going to be on a windows program called wax. It's free

This helped me a bunch, subscribed.
