Squeeze 5Ever need to brand your video? For many reasons we often have a need to make sure that the files we produce don’t end up being used without permission. Watermarking is a great way of showing off your completed work while still maintaining control. The watermarking filter can be applied to any output format within Squeeze 5. To activate the watermark you can either edit any filter or create a new filter by clicking the plus button. This will bring up the filter dialogue. Check the watermark filter and and you can preview the look by using the slider bar above the view window. As a default the Squeeze Vice is your watermark, but you can choose any .png, .jpeg, or .gif as your watermark. You can also customize the position, feathering and opacity of the watermark in this dialogue. It’s a quick and painless way to make sure your encoded video has your mark.

Sorenson Squeeze 5 is available at an academic discount price of $379.
