Installation Guide
Installing the Alerts – Streamlabs
In your downloaded files, open up the standard alert folder.
- Click the Alerts Quick Setup link to begin installing these alerts.
- If you’d like, choose “Create Widget Theme” and name it something appropriate such as package name. The import link will only override your alert package. This means you can combine these alerts with any other scene collection/widgets you’ve made in Streamlabs. If you want to save your old alerts, it’s highly recommended to do this in a new profile.
- Select “Use” for the profile you want to import into.
- Navigate to “Alert Box” and copy your unique URL.
- Paste this URL as a “Browser Source” in your streaming software.
Once you’ve added this into your streaming software test the alerts to make sure they’re working properly.
Delaying Text-to-Speech
If you’re planning on using text-to-speech you may need to delay them from being read, as there is an intro animation and sounds. To do this, you can change the Alert Text Delay in the Streamlabs base options. If you’re using alert variations (such as re-subs) you will need to update in the variations as well.
Once you’ve added this into your streaming software, test the widget to make sure they’re working properly.
Width and Height of Source
We generally recommend setting the size to 1920 wide and 1080 tall (more height is recommended if using messages), however, depending on your stream adjust the size here may work better for you. If you need to scale down, you can do so directly inside of OBS Studio. If you’re using the Streamlabs OBS .overlay file, you may not need to complete this step if your alert box is already added in.
Installing the Alerts – Streamelements
In your downloaded files, open up the Streamelements alert folder.
- Head over to Streamelements.com and ensure you’re logged in.

- Head over to “My Overlays”
- You should now find the imported alerts named after the pack they are from.
- Click on the “Launch Overlay” to get the URL for your alerts
- Paste this URL as a “Browser Source” in your streaming software.
*NOTE: The Streamelements links are specific to your platform. You can only use the Twitch link for Twitch, and YouTube for YouTube.

Editing the Stinger After Effects File
We’ve included the stinger transition After Effects CC file for users that would like to edit the colors used in the stinger transition. This file is intended for users that have knowledge with AE, as we cannot provide support for it.
- Open the Source AE File
- In the Stealth Stinger comp and scrub to an area that shows the graphics, around 00:43 is a good place for this

Changing the Icon Colors for the Alerts, Event List, and Alert List
If you’d like to edit the color of the alert icons or event list animations, you can do so two different ways:
- Most Alerts, Eventlists and Goals have a “Custom Fields” section in the widget settings.
- If there are no “Custom Fields” you can add a color correction filter. Right click your sources in your streaming software and add a color correction filter, you can adjust the hue, brightness, and saturation of this source. Please note: this will change all the colors in this source. We recommend leaving the custom options at their default in order to get the best results.

This means you can combine these alerts with any other scene collection/widgets you’ve made in Streamlabs. If you want to save your old alerts, it’s highly recommended to do this in a new profile.
- Select “Use” for the profile you want to import into.
- Navigate to “Alert Box” and copy your unique URL.
- Paste this URL as a “Browser Source” in your streaming software.
Once you’ve added this into your streaming software test the alerts to make sure they’re working properly.
Delaying Text-to-Speech
If you’re planning on using text-to-speech you may need to delay them from being read, as there is an intro animation and sounds. To do this, you can change the Alert Text Delay in the Streamlabs base options. If you’re using alert variations (such as re-subs) you will need to update in the variations as well.
Once you’ve added this into your streaming software, test the widget to make sure they’re working properly.
Width and Height of Source
We generally recommend setting the size to 1920 wide and 1080 tall (more height is recommended if using messages), however, depending on your stream adjust the size here may work better for you.

Installing the Overlays – Super Charged (OBS Studio)
Check out the Supercharged Video tutorial!
Before we import the Overlays, let’s cover a couple basics. With OBS Studio closed:
- Please make sure you have installed the fonts shown in the “FONTS USED” section.
- If you plan on using Streamlabels (the static text that updates when someone donates, follows, subs etc…), please make sure to have them installed.
- Make sure to extract your “Overlays” download. You’ll want to make sure it’s a location that you want to keep.
- To ensure no data loss of your previous scenes, we suggest creating a new “Scene Collection” using the tab at the top.
- Please ensure your canvas is set to 1920×1080. Files > Settings > Video Base (Canvas) size.
Now lets import the Overlays!

- If you only want to set up just specific elements included in the pack, you can change the drop down menu to “Sources”
- Click on the “Add…” button for the element you wish to add. This will add it to the current scene you have shown in OBS.
- Once you’ve click on the “Setup all scenes”, click close on the Scripts window. You’ll now see all the scenes have been setup for you.
Customizing your imported set up
After you’ve imported your Overlays, you’ll want to customize certain elements. Here’s how:
- Standard text – Right click the element, click on properties and change the what you want the text to show
- Icons/images – Right click the element, click on properties, click on the “Browse” and locate the file you wish to replace the current one.

Using Streamlabs OBS import for scenes? All scenes will be set up once you’ve imported the package, please refer to the “Streamlabs OBS” tab.
Setting up a stinger transition between scenes is easy with OBS Studio.
OBS Studio

- Give the “Stinger” a name and click “Ok”
- For “video file” click browse and select the stinger.webm found in the “Screens” folder
- Set the “transition point type” to frame and “transition point” to 60
- Enable sounds by setting “Audio Monitoring” to “Monitoring and Output”
- Click OK
StreamLabs OBS
- Click the gear icon above your scenes
- Set the “Transition” option to “Stinger”
- Set the “Duration” to 60
- Select Browse for the “Video File” and choose the stinger file found in the “Screens” folder
- Make sure “Transition Point Type” is set to “Frame”
- Set the “Transition Point” to 100
- Leave other settings on their defaults
- Hit Done
Editing the Stinger After Effects File
We’ve included the stinger transition After Effects CC file for users that would like to edit the colors used in the stinger transition. This file is intended for users that have knowledge with AE, as we cannot provide support for it.
- Open the Source AE File
- In the Stealth Stinger comp and scrub to an area that shows the graphics, around 00:43 is a good place for this
- Select the Control Layer
- In the Master Controls panel for this layer, use the control color options to change the colors as needed
- Enable “Toggle Transparency Grid” before rendering
- Render the Stealth Stinger comp as a compatible stinger file (.mov or .webm)
After Effects project file (source)
While we have prepared this file up to be very user friendly, we do expect that you have experience with After Effects and methods of exporting video files. If you are not comfortable with the software, we do not recommend you include this in your purchase. Here are some basic instructions to get you started:
- Open the AE File
- Select the “@Master Control” composition from the project list
- Find the “Color” layer within the composition, inspect the Effects and you will find global controls for the color of the entire package.
- Tweak these values to your liking
- “File > Export > Add to Render Queue” each composition as required. You will need to save as a format that supports alpha (.mov and .webm).
Here’s a great video we’ve created on the subject! Check it out!
Changing the Icon Colors for the Alerts, Event List, and Alert List
If you’d like to edit the color of the alert icons or event list animations, you can do so two different ways:
- Most Alerts, Eventlists and Goals have a “Custom Fields” section in the widget settings.
- If there are no “Custom Fields” you can add a color correction filter. Right click your sources in your streaming software and add a color correction filter, you can adjust the hue, brightness, and saturation of this source. Please note: this will change all the colors in this source. We recommend leaving the custom options at their default in order to get the best results.

Installing the Overlays – Streamlabs OBS
The following steps are specific to Streamlabs OBS and the .overlay file. Only Streamlabs OBS can make use of the .overlay file. If you’re using streaming software other than Streamlabs OBS, please follow the steps in the “Overlays” and “Scenes” sections.
- Download and install StreamLabs OBS if you haven’t already
- Unzip the files you’ve downloaded onto your computer.
- Open/Run Streamlabs OBS.
- Open the Streamlabs OBS settings by clicking the settings wheel at the bottom left corner
- Click on “Scene Collections” on the left of the pop-up menu
- Click on “Import Overlay File”
- Browse to your unzipped files
- Select the “.overlay” file
*NOTE: After selecting the file, it may take several minutes to for all the resource to load. This will setup the transition (if included) and multiple Scenes (Starting, Ending, BRB etc…)
Creating your overlays
We’ve set up a few scenes for you already and have included most of the items available with your full download.
- Duplicate any scenes that you need multiples of
- Swap out any elements you would like to, from your main download (for example different icons or webcam border)
- Change the label sources label type if desired, in the source properties
Installing the Overlays – Streamelements
In your downloaded files, open up the Streamelements alert folder.
- Head over to Streamelements.com and ensure you’re logged in.
- Double click the Streamelements Overlay set up link from your downloads
- This link will automatically open up the Streamelements website and begin the import.
- You should get a notification at the top of the Streamelements website stating the import was successful
- Head over to “My Overlays”
- You should now find the imported Overlay scenes named after the pack they are from, and what they’re intended for.
- Click on the “Launch Overlay” to get the URL for your alerts
- Paste this URL as a “Browser Source” in your streaming software.
*NOTE: The Streamelements links are specific to your platform. You can only use the Twitch link for Twitch, and YouTube for YouTube.
Once you’ve added this into your streaming software, test the widget to make sure they’re working properly.
Width and Height of Source
We generally recommend setting the size to 1920 wide and 1080 tall (more height is recommended if using messages), however, depending on your stream adjust the size here may work better for you. If you need to scale down, you can do so directly inside of OBS Studio. If you’re using the Streamlabs OBS .overlay file, you may not need to complete this step if your alert box is already added in.
Installation of this product involves using media, image, and text sources. If you’re unfamiliar with these, please make sure to familiarize yourself with the streaming software you use.
- Unzip/Extract the files you’ve downloaded onto your computer.
- Open your streaming software. Add animated parts (WEBM files) by adding “media sources” and locating your desired overlay elements. There are preset layouts OR modular elements to customize to your needs. Mix and match as needed.
- Skip this step if you do not need to add custom text to the labels. The easiest way to add you custom text is to load one of the blank WEBM files and add a ‘text’ layer over the top using the recommended font.
- To add dynamic supporter tags, add in text sources and connect them to the appropriate text file. This will be done using apps like Streamlab’s Stream Labels or the Muxy Ticker. We recommend using the fonts listed in the “before you install” section.
- Any scenes can be set up in a similar process (Starting Soon, BRB, etc.). In your new scenes you will add in media files from the “Screens” folder, images from the “Icons”, and text sources to add custom text needed. Again, please use the recommended font.
- Please use any demo images or movies for reference on recommended layouts.
Editing the Language and Text in Your Overlays
To change the language or text used in your overlays you may use the blank versions of our supporter sections / overlays. From there, you will need to add text sources with the text needed on top of your supporter sections. We recommend using the fonts listed above in the “before you install” section. You can also use image sources to add the icons we’ve included in your downloads as well.
Setting up your scenes in standard streaming software:
- The scenes will be divided up into media sources (video files), image sources, and text sources.
- Add any new media sources for each scene
- Set thees sources to looping, and select a local file
- To reduce CPU or encoding resources, make sure “Close File When Inactive” is checked
- Add in image sources for icons (found in the icon folder) if desired
- Add in text sources, using the recommended font, and place next to the icon if desired.
- Duplicate scenes and change as needed.
Using Streamlabs OBS import for scenes? All scenes will be set up once you’ve imported the package, please refer to the “Streamlabs OBS” tab.
Setting up a stinger transition between scenes is easy with OBS Studio.
OBS Studio
- Under the “scene transitions” section, click the “+” under the drop down and select “Stinger”
- Give the “Stinger” a name and click “Ok”
- For “video file” click browse and select the stinger.webm found in the “Screens” folder
- Set the “transition point type” to time and “transition point” to 2300
- Enable sounds by setting “Audio Monitoring” to “Monitoring and Output”
- Click OK
StreamLabs OBS
- Click the gear icon above your scenes
- Set the “Transition” option to “Stinger”
- Select Browse for the “Video File” and choose the stinger file found in the “Screens” folder
- Make sure “Transition Point Type” is set to “Time (milliseconds)”
- Set the “Transition Point (milliseconds)” to 2300
- Leave other settings on their defaults
- Hit Done
Editing the Stinger After Effects File
We’ve included the stinger transition After Effects CC file for users that would like to edit the colors used in the stinger transition. This file is intended for users that have knowledge with AE, as we cannot provide support for it.
- Open the Arcana AE File
- In the Arcana Stinger comp and scrub to an area that shows the graphics, around 02:20 is a good place for this
- Select the Control Layer
- In the Master Controls panel for this layer, use the control color options to change the colors as needed
- Enable “Toggle Transparency Grid” before rendering
- Render the Stealth Stinger comp as a compatible stinger file (.mov or .webm)
After Effects project file (source)
While we have prepared this file up to be very user friendly, we do expect that you have experience with After Effects and methods of exporting video files. If you are not comfortable with the software, we do not recommend you include this in your purchase. Here are some basic instructions to get you started:
- Open the AE File
- Select the “@Master Control” composition from the project list
- Find the “Color” layer within the composition, inspect the Effects and you will find global controls for the color of the entire package.
- Tweak these values to your liking
- “File > Export > Add to Render Queue” each composition as required. You will need to save as a format that supports alpha (.mov and .webm).
Here’s a great video we’ve created on the subject! Check it out!
Changing the Icon Colors for the Alerts, Event List, and Alert List
If you’d like to edit the color of the alert icons or event list animations, you can do so two different ways:
- Most Alerts, Eventlists and Goals have a “Custom Fields” section in the widget settings.
- Some products may contain additional video/webm files you can swap for the existing video file within each alert settings.
- Alternatively, if there are no “Custom Fields” or alternative video/webm files you can add a color correction filter. Right click your sources in your streaming software and add a color correction filter, you can adjust the hue, brightness, and saturation of this source. Please note: this will change all the colors in this source. We recommend leaving the custom options at their default in order to get the best results.

Wicked – Setup Guide
General Information
Thanks for checking out this setup guide. This guide will cover items downloaded from NerdOrDie.com and TwitchTemple.com and will take you through the setup process. If you have any questions that aren’t answered in this setup guide, please feel free to contact us.
Photoshop and other third party software is not required to use this product, however specific components can be edited in Photoshop and After Effects, as we provide some of the original files.
The alerts, overlays, and widgets have been designed for use with OBS Studio, Streamlabs OBS, OBS.Live, and Xsplit. Please make sure your streaming software is up to date before using this product. If you are not familiar with how to set up and use streaming software, we strongly suggest checking out the below tutorial before moving on:
Before You Install
Installation Guide
In your downloaded files, open up the standard alert folder.
- Click the Alerts Quick Setup link to begin installing these alerts.
- If you’d like, choose “Create Widget Theme” and name it something appropriate such as package name. The import link will only override your alert package. This means you can combine these alerts with any other scene collection/widgets you’ve made in Streamlabs. If you want to save your old alerts, it’s highly recommended to do this in a new profile.
- Select “Use” for the profile you want to import into.
- Navigate to “Alert Box” and copy your unique URL.
- Paste this URL as a “Browser Source” in your streaming software.
Once you’ve added this into your streaming software test the alerts to make sure they’re working properly.
IMPORTANT: To align to your webcam properly
The easiest way to align to your webcam is by using a width of 740 and a height of at least 800. The width will match exactly that of the webcam frame used.
There is a custom field option Enable Webcam Spacing that will add the proper height needed for alignment. This means if these two sources are both placed in the top left of a scene, they should align perfectly. We recommend putting the alerts and overlay in their own scene, and then using the add scene as source feature to keep them grouped.
You can also test the alerts multiple times and align by dragging if needed.
Delaying Text-to-Speech
If you’re planning on using text-to-speech you may need to delay them from being read, as there is an intro animation and sounds. To do this, you can change the Alert Text Delay in the Streamlabs base options. If you’re using alert variations (such as re-subs) you will need to update in the variations as well.
Once you’ve added this into your streaming software, test the widget to make sure they’re working properly.
Custom Alert Options
These options are found in the Custom Fields tab. Use these to customize the look of your alerts.
- Font Family – The font family used in the alerts. The default is Creepster.

- Open your streaming software. Add animated parts (WEBM files) by adding “media sources” and locating your desired overlay elements. There are preset layouts OR modular elements to customize to your needs. Mix and match as needed.
- Skip this step if you do not need to add custom text to the labels. The easiest way to add you custom text is to load one of the blank WEBM files and add a ‘text’ layer over the top using the recommended font.
- To add dynamic supporter tags, add in text sources and connect them to the appropriate text file. This will be done using apps like Streamlab’s Stream Labels or the Muxy Ticker. We recommend using the fonts listed in the “before you install” section.
- Any scenes can be set up in a similar process (Starting Soon, BRB, etc.). In your new scenes you will add in media files from the “Screens” folder, images from the “Icons”, and text sources to add custom text needed. Again, please use the recommended font.
- Please use any demo images or movies for reference on recommended layouts.
Editing the Language and Text in Your Overlays
To change the language or text used in your overlays you may use the blank versions of our supporter sections / overlays. From there, you will need to add text sources with the text needed on top of your supporter sections. We recommend using the fonts listed above in the “before you install” section. You can also use image sources to add the icons we’ve included in your downloads as well.
Setting up your scenes in standard streaming software:
- The scenes will be divided up into media sources (video files), image sources, and text sources.
- Add any new media sources for each scene
- Set thees sources to looping, and select a local file
- To reduce CPU or encoding resources, make sure “Close File When Inactive” is checked
- Add in image sources for icons (found in the icon folder) if desired
- Add in text sources, using the recommended font, and place next to the icon if desired.
- Duplicate scenes and change as needed.
Using Streamlabs OBS import for scenes? All scenes will be set up once you’ve imported the package, please refer to the “Streamlabs OBS” tab.
Setting up a stinger transition between scenes is easy with OBS Studio.
OBS Studio
- Under the “scene transitions” section, click the “+” under the drop down and select “Stinger”
- Give the “Stinger” a name and click “Ok”
- For “video file” click browse and select the stinger.webm found in the “Screens” folder
- Set the “transition point type” to time and “transition point” to 500
- Enable sounds by setting “Audio Monitoring” to “Monitoring and Output”
- Click OK
StreamLabs OBS
- Click the gear icon above your scenes
- Set the “Transition” option to “Stinger”

- Make sure “Transition Point Type” is set to “Time (milliseconds)”
- Set the “Transition Point (milliseconds)” to 500
- Leave other settings on their defaults
- Hit Done
Editing the Stinger After Effects File
We’ve included the stinger transition After Effects CC file for users that would like to edit the colors used in the stinger transition. This file is intended for users that have knowledge with AE, as we cannot provide support for it.
- Open the Glitch 2 AE File
- In the Stealth Stinger comp and scrub to an area that shows the graphics, around 00:43 is a good place for this
- Select the Control Layer
- In the Master Controls panel for this layer, use the control color options to change the colors as needed
- Enable “Toggle Transparency Grid” before rendering
- Render the Stealth Stinger comp as a compatible stinger file (.mov or .webm)
After Effects project file (source)
While we have prepared this file up to be very user friendly, we do expect that you have experience with After Effects and methods of exporting video files. If you are not comfortable with the software, we do not recommend you include this in your purchase. Here are some basic instructions to get you started:
- Open the AE File
- Select the “@Master Control” composition from the project list
- Find the “Color” layer within the composition, inspect the Effects and you will find global controls for the color of the entire package.
- Tweak these values to your liking
- “File > Export > Add to Render Queue” each composition as required. You will need to save as a format that supports alpha (.mov and .webm).

Changing the Icon Colors for the Alerts, Event List, and Alert List
If you’d like to edit the color of the alert icons or event list animations, you can do so two different ways:
- Most Alerts, Eventlists and Goals have a “Custom Fields” section in the widget settings.
- If there are no “Custom Fields” you can add a color correction filter. Right click your sources in your streaming software and add a color correction filter, you can adjust the hue, brightness, and saturation of this source. Please note: this will change all the colors in this source. We recommend leaving the custom options at their default in order to get the best results.

Installing Alerts, Goals, Chatbox and other Widgets in Streamlabs (If included)
In your downloaded files, open the folder to the widget you would like to install.
*(Alerts are a separate download. All other widgets can be found with the Overlays download)
- Click the Quick Setup link to begin installing the Widget.
- If you’d like, choose “Create Widget Theme” and name it something appropriate such as package name. The import link will only override your selected widget. This means you can combine these with any other scene collection/widgets you’ve made in Streamlabs. If you want to save your old widgets, it’s highly recommended you create the new profile.
- Select “Use” for the profile you want to import into.
- The page will automatically take you to the Widget settings for the widget you just imported.
- Click on the “Copy” button next to the unique URL.
- Paste this URL as a “Browser Source” in your streaming software.
Once you’ve added this into your streaming software, test the widget to make sure they’re working properly.

If you need to scale down, you can do so directly inside of OBS Studio. If you’re using the Streamlabs OBS .overlay file, you may not need to complete this step if your alert box is already added in.
Installation of this product involves using media, image, and text sources. If you’re unfamiliar with these, please make sure to familiarize yourself with the streaming software you use.
- Unzip the files you’ve downloaded onto your computer.
- Open your streaming software. Add animated parts (WEBM files) by adding “media sources” and locating your desired overlay elements. There are preset layouts OR modular elements to customize to your needs. Mix and match as needed.
- Skip this step if you do not need to add custom text to the labels. The easiest way to add you custom text is to load one of the blank WEBM files and add a ‘text’ layer over the top using the recommended font.
- To add dynamic supporter tags, add in text sources and connect them to the appropriate text file. This will be done using apps like Streamlab’s Stream Labels or the Muxy Ticker. We recommend using the fonts listed in the “before you install” section.
- Any scenes can be set up in a similar process (Starting Soon, BRB, etc.). In your new scenes you will add in media files from the “Screens” folder, images from the “Icons”, and text sources to add custom text needed. Again, please use the recommended font.
- Please use any demo images or movies for reference on recommended layouts.
Editing the Language and Text in Your Overlays
To change the language or text used in your overlays you may use the blank versions of our supporter sections / overlays. From there, you will need to add text sources with the text needed on top of your supporter sections. We recommend using the fonts listed above in the “before you install” section. You can also use image sources to add the icons we’ve included in your downloads as well.

Editing the Stinger After Effects File
We’ve included the stinger transition After Effects CC file for users that would like to edit the colors used in the stinger transition. This file is intended for users that have knowledge with AE, as we cannot provide support for it.
- Open the stingerAE File
- In the Stinger comp and scrub to an area that shows the graphics, around 00:43 is a good place for this
- Select the Control Layer
- In the Master Controls panel for this layer, use the control color options to change the colors as needed
- Enable “Toggle Transparency Grid” before rendering
- Render the Stinger comp as a compatible stinger file (.mov or .webm)
After Effects project file (source)
While we have prepared this file up to be very user friendly, we do expect that you have experience with After Effects and methods of exporting video files. If you are not comfortable with the software, we do not recommend you include this in your purchase. Here are some basic instructions to get you started:
- Open the AE File
- Select the “@Master Control” composition from the project list
- Find the “Color” layer within the composition, inspect the Effects and you will find global controls for the color of the entire package.
- Tweak these values to your liking
- “File > Export > Add to Render Queue” each composition as required. You will need to save as a format that supports alpha (.mov and .webm).
Here’s a great video we’ve created on the subject! Check it out!
Changing the Icon Colors for the Alerts, Event List, and Alert List
If you’d like to edit the color of the alert icons or event list animations, you can do so using the custom fields of the Widget. Alternatively, you can add a color correction filter that will effect the entire source. Right click your sources and add a color correction filter, you can adjust the hue, brightness, and saturation of this source. Please note: this will change all the colors in this source. We recommend leaving the custom options at their default in order to get the best results.

Before You Install
Installation Guide
Installing the Alerts – Streamlabs
In your downloaded files, open up the standard alert folder.
- Click the Alerts Quick Setup link to begin installing these alerts.
- If you’d like, choose “Create Widget Theme” and name it something appropriate such as package name. The import link will only override your alert package. This means you can combine these alerts with any other scene collection/widgets you’ve made in Streamlabs. If you want to save your old alerts, it’s highly recommended to do this in a new profile.
- Select “Use” for the profile you want to import into.
- Navigate to “Alert Box” and copy your unique URL.
- Paste this URL as a “Browser Source” in your streaming software.
Once you’ve added this into your streaming software test the alerts to make sure they’re working properly.
Delaying Text-to-Speech
If you’re planning on using text-to-speech you may need to delay them from being read, as there is an intro animation and sounds. To do this, you can change the Alert Text Delay in the Streamlabs base options. If you’re using alert variations (such as re-subs) you will need to update in the variations as well.

Editing the Stinger After Effects File
We’ve included the stinger transition After Effects CC file for users that would like to edit the colors used in the stinger transition. This file is intended for users that have knowledge with AE, as we cannot provide support for it.
- Open the Stealth AE File
- In the Stealth Stinger comp and scrub to an area that shows the graphics, around 00:43 is a good place for this
- Select the Control Layer
- In the Master Controls panel for this layer, use the control color options to change the colors as needed
- Enable “Toggle Transparency Grid” before rendering
- Render the Stealth Stinger comp as a compatible stinger file (.mov or .webm)
After Effects project file (source)
While we have prepared this file up to be very user friendly, we do expect that you have experience with After Effects and methods of exporting video files. If you are not comfortable with the software, we do not recommend you include this in your purchase. Here are some basic instructions to get you started:
- Open the AE File
- Select the “@Master Control” composition from the project list
- Find the “Color” layer within the composition, inspect the Effects and you will find global controls for the color of the entire package.
- Tweak these values to your liking
- “File > Export > Add to Render Queue” each composition as required. You will need to save as a format that supports alpha (.mov and .webm).
Here’s a great video we’ve created on the subject! Check it out!
