Key Features of Animated Flags

Work well in small sizes

Even when displayed small, the flags remain clearly recognizable in videos. This makes them ideal for use in the top-right or top-left corner of a video — just like a moving logo.

Correct aspect ratio

The length-to-height ratio of each flag is preserved. Many flags use a 3:2 ratio, some are 2:1, and there are also less common proportions such as 8:5.

Accurate rendering

Waves and shadows on the flags are mathematically defined. Narrower flags have shorter waves, while wider flags have longer ones — creating a natural look and feel.

Easy to use

Transparent .gif files are simple to work with, even in mobile video editing applications.

Versatile application

Each clip is one second long, with the first and last frames seamlessly connected. This makes it easy to create longer sequences of waving flags.

Customization options

Flags can be customized on request. Contact us to learn what modifications are possible and how we can adapt them for your needs.
