thankyou!

thank you!

There are so many and they are ever changing.

I think there is a useful thread that we should bump and encourage people to keep updating

Social Media Safety areas

I haven’t made any guides for these yet. My clients seem to know less than me.

I go by the Smpte guides, which I believe are the same as EBU, for broadcast. I wing all that other stuff. Every once in a while a client will send me some sample of guides to follow for a social platform.

Hey Dan. I’ve been having a look at combining Tik Tok, Insta Stories and Snapchat to make a triple safe for 9x16 and i reckon 46px in from left and right, 375 from the bottom (both tik tok) and 250 from the top (insta stories) covers it. Snapchat says 150 or 250 from top and/or bottom depending where you look.

I just received this TikTok guide from an advertising client. Not sure how official it is but I thought I’d share it.

I just got one very similar to this. Huge pain when the client hasn’t thought of it until the end. They kept saying we want a 9x16 version and designed the titles full frame and after delivery came back with this guide. Had to shove all the ttiles up there. Unfortunately, they don’t seem to care too much about it but it really needed a re-design.

They really don’t seem to care do they.
