Kind hands – thank you nurses video template

Oatmeal and terracotta with a steaming mug and handwritten notes for the carers who looked after someone you love. With your photos and message it runs about 20 seconds over 5 scenes, and grows a little with every extra photo you add.

On screen it reads “To …”, “Thank you”, “for …” and “you made every day brighter”, set in Fraunces and Caveat. The artwork is a mug and a leafy sprig. It adds bokeh. The mugs bob, the words arrive letter by letter and the leafy sprigs sway. The colours are cream, cocoa and coral; under Style you can swap them for white, deep green and green.

When you open it, a short form asks for who it’s for, what 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 warm keys track (gentle electric piano), or pick another built-in track or a song from your device, or save a short GIF.

People pick it for carers, care home, home care, hospice and warm. Everything is made on your device: nothing is uploaded, there is no sign-up and no watermark. For ideas, wording and timing, see nurse appreciation video.
