How to add a watermark on videos?

[world_class_footballer]

Hi everyone,

I currently edit my videos using Final Cut Pro X, but I wanted to know if someone can shed some knowledge and let me know how to create/add a watermark to my videos. I'm not talking about the small square watermark I can add via YouTube. I'm talking about a nice transparent watermark that I could add to the video itself. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

While editing, add some text and make it transparent it. Position it where you would like, make it as long as you need to, and voila. If you don't know how to add transparency to text, just do a quick google search. I use Sony Vegas, don't know too much about Final Cut Pro.

If you went, chose an icon or a logo and put it into photoshop, go into blending mode and make it around 50% transparent and then save it, then you have your own signature file as an image to then just have it as a layer on your video editing software.

Thanks for the help guys.

you can do the same thing in Photoshop, create a PNG with a transparent background, Import it as you would for a video clip and move it on your timeline and reposition it where you want it. I do it this way in Adobe Premiere Pro, I would assume it would work the same for Final Cut pro.
