Sticker

A transparent cutout dropped straight onto the footage: no card, no frame. Pops in, drifts like it is held in a hand, and leaves with the spec's exit (pair with exit "vanish").

Design
Aspect ratio

Put this in your video

Slap a cutout straight onto the footage: a mark, a reaction, a product shot. Paste this into Claude Code, Codex, or any coding agent.

Prompt

Use the OverlayMotion video templates from https://github.com/ricardo/overlay-motion Add the Sticker template with my logo PNG at 70% size in the top right corner, from 2s to 6s, popping in with sound and vanishing on the way out.

  • Have ready: A transparent PNG or SVG.
  • Works over any clip, and still renders with no clip at all.
  • Defaults to the center of the frame for about 4 seconds. Ask for another spot, a start time, or a longer hold.
  • A correction is one sentence: “Bigger, and let it drift a little more.”

Inputs

Everything inside the overlay's props. Omit one and its default applies.

srctextRequired

Cutout artwork: a bundled library name ("pickle") or your own path/URL. A transparent PNG or WebP is the point: a JPEG paints its own rectangle over the footage.

alttextOptional

Accessibility label. Never painted on screen.

fitcontain | coverDefault "contain"

How the art meets the region box: contain keeps the whole cutout visible, cover crops it to fill.

sizePctnumberDefault 100

Size as a percentage of the region box, so placement stays region-driven. Use overlay.scale when you want the sticker to grow past its region.

shadownone | soft | dropDefault "drop"

Contact shadow that separates the cutout from busy footage: soft is a wide ambient pool, drop sits tighter and darker.

entrancepop | fade | noneDefault "pop"

Native entrance. Set none when the spec drives the entrance with enter, so the two never stack into a double scale-up.

sfxfalse | cue name | file pathDefault "pop"

Entrance sound. false is silence, any cue name swaps it ("ding", "whoosh", "click"), and any path or URL plays your own file.

borderobjectOptional

Die-cut outline that follows the artwork's own alpha edge, off unless you ask for it. It is painted before the contact shadow, so the shadow is cast by the outlined silhouette rather than crossing it.

What the spec changes without touching props

These live on the overlay, not in this template. They are renderer-provided, so they behave the same here as on every other template.

region

Where it sits. One of the 12 named boxes, or your own { "x": 62, "y": 12, "w": 34, "h": 42 } in percent of the frame. This template is designed around center, which is what it uses when the spec says nothing.

scale

Uniform size inside the resolved region, 0.25 to 2. Props that size the artwork stay relative to the region box, so scale is how an overlay grows past it.

time

When it lives: start, duration, or the appear + hold pair (entrance length plus how long the finished overlay stays). Seconds (3s), percentages (66%) and negative seconds from the end (-2s) are all valid.

motion

Object motion, applied to the element itself so nothing is cropped or zoomed. This template ships { "style": "shake" }; the spec replaces it, retunes it with amount (0..1) and its own time window, stacks several by passing an array, or stops it with { "style": "none" }. The oscillating styles also take frequency, seed, rampSec and rampOutSec; the one-shot skew-* sweeps take their tempo from time instead.

shakewobblefloatsway-3dskew-rightskew-leftskew-upskew-downnone
enter

Renderer-owned entrance, 0.6s, identical on every template. It stacks with whatever entrance the template already runs, so set the template's own entrance prop to none when you drive it from here.

slide-leftslide-rightspringmask
exit

How it leaves: blur-out melts it away, fade-down drifts down, shrink scales to center (0.9s each), vanish pops it out of existence in 0.45s. Set one and the template's own fade steps aside.

blur-outfade-downshrinkvanish
camera

Moves the region's VIEWPORT rather than the element: push-in, pull-out, the pan-* family, handheld. Its own transform layer, so it stacks with motion, enter, exit and scale.

sound

Per-overlay override of the spec's sound block: enabled, volume, and a sounds map that remaps one cue by name ({ "pop": "ding" }, a path to your own file, or false to mute just that cue). The map is keyed by CUE, so remapping pop also changes an exit: "vanish", which fires pop too. To change only this template's own sound, use its sfx prop instead. Core palette: click, pop, whoosh, ding, typewriter.
