VIDEOS
For branded and original content at Matador, there are currently two required assets both listed below.
Matador LOGO Watermark
This is an animated watermark that begins immediately and finishes after several seconds, remaining static for the duration of the video.
- To extend the static portion, use the Rate Stretch Tool (R) or Cmd+R to increase its duration.
- At the end of the video, ensure the watermark animates off over footage, not black.
BUMPERS
A universal bumper is used for all branded and original content.
- Branded content:
- Horizontal 16:9 Video: Bumper appears only at the end of the video.
- Vertical 9:16 Video: No bumper or branding
- Original content:
- Horizontal 16:9 Video: Bumper appears at both the beginning and the end of the video.
- Vertical 9:16 Video: Bumper appears only at the end of the video.
Important: Do not insert black frames before or after the bumper.
Bumpers are provided in multiple formats to meet various platform requirements:
4K Versions
HD Versions
Alpha/Transparent Background Versions
Use the transparent bumper only if a client requests the logo over footage; otherwise, use the standard bumper.
