  Ghosted play button over video

  Posted by Saya Hillman on June 8, 2009 at 9:43 pm

  Hi there,

  I was wondering how people add those opaque play buttons in the middle of the screen of web videos, to let people know ‘press here to play.’ I have an FCP video I’m exporting to the web and would like to add something like that —

  is that a graphic you create in another app and import into FCP? Something you add after exporting from FCP?

  That is part of the flash application that is being used to play the video. If you’re delivering to a website, that’s something they’ll take care of.
