What is a watermark?

Definition

A watermark is a logo or text placed over a video to show which tool or which person made it.

Free plans of video tools often add the tool’s own mark to exports. Creators also add their own watermark to protect or brand their work.

A watermark is drawn into the frames when the video is exported, so it cannot be removed afterwards without re-exporting from the project.

In Sceed

Free exports from Sceed carry a small "Made with Sceed" mark and run up to three minutes. Sceed Pro removes both.
