Day 16: I'll show you how you can watermark your images and videos.

With @cloudinary, you can add a watermark to images and videos using transformations.

Follow me...#25DaysOfMediaMagic 🔥🚀

@cloudinary Upload the image you want to use as the "watermark". Ensure that this image already exists on @cloudinary.

Now, add your watermark as an overlay on top of the image you want to brand by setting the overlay parameter (l in URLs) as your watermark image's public ID.....

@cloudinary Example:

First image to the left shows the `envelope` image we want to brand.

Second image to the right shows adding the watermark(cloudinary_icon) as an overlay on the image.

l_cloudinary_icon; where `cloudinary_icon` is the public id of the watermark image prev. uploaded.

@cloudinary Left: Envelope image

Right: Watermarked Envelope image

@cloudinary I know you're already asking the following questions:

- What about the size?
- How can I position the watermark to a specific angle?

Well, you can do that too

Check this out:

width: 200
crop: scale
x axis: -30
y axis: 30
angle: rotate 12 degrees clockwise! #25DaysOfMediaMagic

@cloudinary For videos, it's the same strategy.

Video before watermaking:

res.cloudinary.com/demo/video/upl…

Video after watermarking:

res.cloudinary.com/demo/video/upl… #25DaysOfMediaMagic

@cloudinary - cloudlogo2: public id of watermark image
- width: 200
- gravity: north_east
- x axis: 5
- y axis: 5
- opacity: 40

And that's it. #25DaysOfMediaMagic
