[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The process explains how you use a free video editor ShotCut to put a background video mockup previously recorded, an image of a blank mug, and a design previously made, together to create a video for your mug design to add to your POD product listing.
How to create a background video mockup for mug designs?
Record 10-15 seconds video of a background to have for the product. That is you background video mockup. Save it as you could reuse it multiple times.
If you want to record a background video for mug designs, record a table or a counter at its edge level.
Put some background elements in the space to record.
Make sure to leave a lot of space for the mug or item that will be put in the video later.
If you have a blank mug, you can record it in the video and put image on it later.
How to shoot a background without the blank product in the video
When you shoot the video mockup, don’t move the camera. When the bank product is not in the shooting but added later, it will follow your camera movement. Therefore, if you move the camera during shooting make the movement right to left very slowly for the product video to look real.
How to make a video mockup with a blank product in the video
Alternatively, put a blank product in the video before recording. During recording, don’t move the blank product. But you can add other elements to the side or add an element to the side of the product where it won’t interfere with the image position. Or pour liquid (water, warm tea) or fruit in the blank mug during the shooting.
For card, record the video from top looking down and have folder in the space been recorded.
You can add a blank card stock on the folder and record. Later you will just add the design on the blank card in the video using ShotCut.
After you record few shots, transfer to your computer, and save them. They are background video mockups or video templates you will use multiples times to create product videos for your Print on Demand product listings.
How to make product image mockup in Inkscape?
Inkscape is a free open-source vector software you can download to your computer and use offline. You can use it to create your designs. You can also use Inkscape to create product image mockups for your print on demand product listings. One of the product images can be used to create product video as well.
We have instructions supported by videos to explain how to create mug image mockup for free.
There is also a free manual in PDF to explain step by step how to create product mockup in Inkscape supported by images under Free Downloads, you could download as a manual to have on hand.
You can put the design on a mug if that is a mug design and use blend mode “multiply” under Layers to blend the design into the product to make it look real. Then you save as PNG.
How to use ShotCut to make product video for your product listing?
Open shotcut a free video software if you already downloaded to your computer.
Click on playlist.
Drag the video background to use, to the playlist.
Drag the image to use to the playlist.

From the playlist, drag the video to the timeline below the playlist.
Right click on the timeline and click track operations and add track video.
Drag the blank image or blank product down to the new video track that is above the video track where the background video is.

The middle video track will be the mug or blank product as PNG.
The top video track will be the design as SVG or PNG. Therefore, right click in the timeline again and click on track operations and click video track to add the 3rd video track on top.

How to resize your design to fit on the blank product in the video?
To put your design on the blank product, you will use ShotCut Filters “Size, Positions, & Rotate” to reduce the size of the images and move it to fit the blank product. Make sure the design video track is selected before you apply the filter. To resize the design, drag the box around the design from its corner to keep the aspect ratio of the design.

Click on filter.
Click +
