Helped me grow – thank you teacher video template

Sage watercolour, a little seedling and arched photos for a teacher who helped someone bloom. With your photos and message it runs about 19 seconds over 5 scenes, and grows a little with every extra photo you add.

On screen it reads “Dear …,”, “thank you for helping me *grow*”, “look how far I’ve come” and ““…””, set in Fraunces and Dancing Script. The artwork is a seedling and three leafy sprigs. It adds petals. The seedlings sway, the leafy sprigs sway and the words arrive word by word. The colours are white, deep green and green; under Style you can swap them for white, deep rose and rose.

When you open it, a short form asks for who it’s for, a few words of your own and who it’s from, and puts the answers straight onto the design; every word can still be changed afterwards under Text. There are 2 frames ready for your own pictures, and you can add up to 30 photos or short clips in all; extra ones get scenes of their own.

It opens in Vertical 9:16 and also fits Portrait 4:5, Square 1:1 and Landscape 16:9; switch under Format without starting again. Export it as an MP4 with sound; it starts with the gentle piano track (soft arpeggios), or pick another built-in track or a song from your device, or save a short GIF.

People pick it for grow, seedling, plant, watercolour and sage. Everything is made on your device: nothing is uploaded, there is no sign-up and no watermark. For ideas, wording and timing, see thank you teacher video and messages.
