Frequently asked
What is the Ring Timer animation?
A ticked ring drains around the clock while the time pulses each second. Clean for quizzes and challenges. It belongs to the Countdowns & Timers category on velements, where you edit it in the browser and download it as a finished video file.
What can you customize in Ring Timer?
Every control in the editor, grouped the same way there. Content: from, to, clock format, title and subtitle. Typography: font, weight and size. Style: background, text color, primary, secondary, accent and thickness. Layout: aspect ratio, corner radius and position. Motion: duration. Each change appears in the live preview straight away, and editing is free.
How long is Ring Timer?
Ring Timer runs 30 seconds by default, and you can set any length up to 3600 seconds before you export. It plays once from start to finish, so it drops straight onto a cut or an opening.
Can you download Ring Timer with a transparent background?
Yes. Set the background to Transparent, then export a PNG sequence for Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro or Figma: import the first frame as an image sequence and it drops onto a track above your footage with a straight alpha channel. Export WebM with a VP9 alpha channel for the web and for CapCut. MP4 has no alpha channel, so it keeps a solid color or image behind the animation.
Can you use Ring Timer in commercial projects?
Yes. Each download comes with a perpetual commercial license in your name for client work, ads and products, and you may sell the edited clip on stock footage sites. Reselling the preset itself as an editable template is not allowed.
