You can embellish your logo with shading or add text, shadow, and shapes, if for some reason you want to. Because it's a vector graphic, you can resize however you like without negotiating pixels and file size.
It can be a hassle making sure that your logo has a transparent background when you upload it (the trick is to save it in PNG). But you don't need to open Photoshop for a simple, elegant text watermark. You can overlay text in a custom font anywhere on your video, all in-app. It only takes a few clicks.
This process introduces a lot of files into the mix. It can be nerve-wracking knowing that someone may do irreparable damage to your image and video files. Relax. Descript’s video editing tools are non-destructive. Your files are all in the cloud, fresh as the day you uploaded them.
Same as how a company will watermark photos to protect against copyright infringement and misrepresentation, a watermark on a YouTube video helps ensure the video’s provenance is apparent wherever it goes. A watermark also helps with branding — a subtle way to remind viewers who’s behind the video they’re watching.

A watermark is a text or image layer that can be added anywhere in a video. It is a unique identifier that lets viewers know the owner of the video and helps protect it against unauthorized use.
