Best Practices & Glossary

📋 Best Practices for Creative Optimization

  • File Size: Keep images under 150KB and videos under 100MB for optimal loading
  • Dimensions: Always provide exact dimensions - avoid stretching or distortion
  • Safe Zones: Keep text/logos within 10% margin from edges
  • Aspect Ratios: Maintain proper ratios to prevent cropping
  • Video Length: Shorter is better - aim for 15 seconds when possible
  • File Formats: MP4 (H.264) for video, JPG for photos, PNG for graphics with transparency
  • Audio: Always include captions - 85% of videos are watched without sound
