Step-by-Step Guide to Setting Up Your Brand
Accessing the Branding Feature
Go to your homepage in Bable and click on the brands icon located on the left side of your screen.Adding a New Brand
Click on "Add Brand." If you have an existing website, you can automatically fetch your branding from there. If you don’t, opt for the “Use Default Palette” option.Naming Your Palette
After that, you'll need to give your color palette a unique name.Selecting Your Colors
You’ll have the option to keep the colors fetched from your website or delete them and start fresh. You must include a light text color and a dark text color, typically pure white (#FFFFFF) and pure black (#000000). If you have a graphic designer, they should provide you with the hex codes for the rest of your brand colors. If not, don’t worry—Bable can extract these from your logo when you upload it.Uploading Your Logo
Upload your logo and consider hitting the edit button to adjust the background shape and color, ensuring it looks refined when placed in scenes. You may also want to resize it if necessary.Adjusting Your Brand Colors
If the colors derived from your logo do not meet your expectations, feel free to remove them and start from scratch, or use tools like imagecolorpicking.com to extract the hex codes from your digital designs.Setting Up Color Combinations
You'll want to define various color combinations for use in your scenes. Typically, this means selecting a background color and two foreground colors—these will influence backgrounds, graphics, titles, and headers while not affecting subheaders or body text. A rich array of combos will keep your videos fresh and engaging.Adding Your Fonts
Bable utilizes Google Fonts for typography. Your desired brand font may not be available, but you can find a similar alternative at fonts.google.com and add that to your branding.Saving Your Brand
Once you are satisfied with your setup, hit the “Save Brand” button and make sure to select the star icon to activate this brand. Remember, you can set up multiple brands and switch between them effortlessly, even while editing a video, using the video settings button.
