How long should changelog videos be?
Keep changelog videos concise—30 seconds to 2 minutes works best. Show the highlights, not every detail. Link to full documentation for more info.
Should I include version numbers?
Yes! Add your version number (e.g., 'v2.5.0') as a text overlay in the intro or as a watermark to help users reference the update.
How often should I make changelog videos?
Create videos for major releases or when you ship user-facing features. Minor bug fixes don't usually need video content.
How do I create release notes videos?
Structure your video by feature: use scenes for each update, add clear headings, and show each feature in action. End with a summary scene listing all changes and linking to full release notes.
Can I automate changelog video creation?
While SuperMotion doesn't auto-generate videos, our template system speeds up the process. Create a changelog template with your branding, then duplicate and update content for each release.
What's the best way to share changelog videos?
Embed in your changelog page, share on Twitter/X for visibility, include in release notification emails, and post in your community. Short clips work great as in-app announcement banners.
Should changelog videos have narration?
Text overlays work better for quick consumption—users can scan without sound. If your updates are complex, consider a voiceover version for your YouTube channel alongside the silent social version.
How do I maintain consistency across changelog videos?
Create a changelog template with your intro scene, branded colors, and consistent text styles. Duplicate this template for each release and just swap out the demo content.
