Channel trailers are a very handy tool to introduce viewers to the artist. You can pick a video in Backstage to automatically play when someone goes to the channel.
This video will only play to users who have not subscribed to the channel. If you'd like to set a different video for returning subscribers, please reach out to contentops@vevo.com with the channel name and YouTube video URL to set it up.
- Go to the Channel search page under the YouTube section.
- Search and click into the desired channel name.
- Click the "Trailer name" field in the lower right-hand corner.
-
Input the video you would like to set as the channel trailer. Note: You can search by ISRC, Youtube ID, or song title. The video must be on that channel.
-
IMPORTANT: You must also publish the changes to the channel or the trailer will not be successfully linked to the channel. You can also make other changes to the channel and submit them at once!
- When you see the "Publish queued!" banner, you're all set!
