Making an Introduction:

MUSIC
A great way to make an introduction is to time clips to music!
We use YouTube’s Audio Library to get the background music for our videos!

CLIPS
The way I make my introductions is by putting together clips from my videos themselves. I chose 3 clips for my Sci-Files intro that represent the 3 aspects of my videos: experiments, explanations and microscope demonstrations!
Choose the clips that suit you best!

LENGTH
Keeping your intro short and to the point is key! Sci-Files’ intro is only 5 seconds long because I wanted to make sure that people were able to recognize my channel, but not bored of it by the time the intro was over!
Going into the “<:30” section of YouTube’s Audio Library you should be able to find some great short songs to fit your intro to!
