What is an Overlay?
An overlay in video editing is a visual element placed on top of a video to enhance its appearance or deliver additional information. Overlays can include text, graphics, images, logos, animations, or even another video layer. They are commonly used in tutorials, marketing videos, live streams, and YouTube content to highlight key points, add branding, or improve viewer engagement. By layering visuals, overlays make videos more dynamic and interactive without altering the original footage.
