Or better yet, build your trailer using Biteable’s exclusive brandable scenes and we’ll automatically apply your brand colors to your entire video with the click of a button.

You can even use Biteable to add your own animated logo if that’s your style.
Add a visual call to action
The most important part of your channel trailer is the part where you ask viewers to subscribe. Your call to action needs to be strong, so make your call to action visually impressive with animated text. Biteable supplies the animation, so all you have to do is write whatever you want!

Pro tips
Fine tune your channel trailer
You don’t have to tell your life story, but your channel trailer should be tailored to viewers who are just beginning their journey with you. Introduce yourself, your purpose, and what your new viewers can get from subscribing to your channel.
Keep your trailer quick
Your videos are the real stars of your channel, so keep your trailer short. Around 30 seconds is plenty to get your message across. Think of your YouTube channel trailer as a creative elevator pitch. Get in, make your pitch as fast as you can, and get out.
Show your YouTube audience what you’ve got
Use footage from your videos to show people what they’ll see if they subscribe. It wouldn’t be a trailer without some teaser shots, right? Giving people a quick but delicious taste of what they’ll get as a subscriber is a great way to entice them to subscribe.
