Important Notes

  • Leave safe space at the top and bottom for interface elements and playback controls.
  • Vertical videos are safer for mobile viewing and discovery feeds.
  • Organic video Pins and promoted video placements may use different creative rules.

Best Practices

  • Put the key visual or hook near the beginning.
  • Avoid a long intro; show the idea, result, or product quickly.
  • Use readable text overlays and keep them inside safe zones.
  • Make the video understandable even without sound.

Common Mistakes

  • Uploading a horizontal video without adapting it for mobile.
  • Placing important captions near the top or bottom edges.
  • Making the video too long for a quick discovery experience.
  • Using tiny text that disappears on a phone screen.
