Using Assets in Projects

Learn about adding brand assets to projects

Updated over 6 months ago

Assets in olooa are essential resources that you regularly use to create content. These can include A/B roll clips, intros, outros, headshots for thumbnails, or any branded media you frequently use in your projects. olooa makes it easy to integrate these assets into different sections of your projects, such as videos, shorts, and thumbnails.

In this article, we’ll explain how to add your brand assets to different sections of your projects.

What Are Assets?

Assets are reusable files that help you maintain consistency across your content. Examples include:

  • A/B roll clips used in multiple videos.

  • Intros and outros for branding consistency.

  • Headshots or logos used in thumbnails.

By organizing these resources in the Assets tab, you can quickly access and add them to any project as needed.

How to Add Assets to Projects

Step 1: Navigate to the Relevant Project Section

  1. Open the Project

    • From the project dashboard, open the project where you want to add assets.

  2. Select the Video, Shorts, or Thumbnail Section

    • Inside the project, navigate to the section where you want to use the assets:

      • Video Section

      • Shorts Section

      • Thumbnail Section

Step 2: Open the Brand Assets or Raw Footage Sub-Tab

  1. Find the Appropriate Sub-Tab

    • In each section (video, shorts, thumbnail), you’ll find sub-tabs such as:

      • Raw Footage

      • Brand Assets

  2. Click the Black Add Button

    • In the sub-tab, locate and click the black Add button.

Step 3: Add Your Assets

  1. Choose from Three Options

    • After clicking the Add button, you’ll be presented with three options:

      • Add Folder: Create a new folder to organize files within the project.

      • Add File: Upload a new file directly from your computer.

      • Add Brand Assets: Select an existing asset from your Assets library.

  2. Select Add Brand Assets

    • To add a file or folder from your Assets library, select Add Brand Assets. This will open a list of all the folders and files you’ve uploaded in the Assets tab.

  3. Choose the Asset to Add

    • Select the folders or files you want to use in the project from your Assets library. Once selected, these assets will be added to the respective section (video, shorts, thumbnail) for use in the project.

Why Using Brand Assets is Important

  1. Consistency Across Content
    By using branded assets like intros, outros, or headshots, you maintain a consistent look and feel across all your content. This is important for building brand identity and recognition.

  2. Saves Time and Effort
    Instead of uploading the same files repeatedly for different projects, olooa allows you to store assets in one place and reuse them across multiple projects. This saves time and ensures you have everything you need in one central location.

  3. Efficient Workflow
    The ability to easily add pre-existing brand assets into the different sections of your project simplifies the content creation process, making it more efficient and organized.
