Spotify’s data backs it up. If your song has a high-quality Canvas video, listeners are:
With this feature, you can upload 3-8 second looping videos for each of your tracks on Spotify. These visuals allow you to build an immediate, high-impact emotional connection with current and potential fans, and show that you’re serious about your music.
So, why not make use of ALL the real estate Spotify provides? Let us walk you through the how-to.
Log in to your CD Baby account and access the CDB Video Creator through Your Videos under the Manage tab. Choose the song or album you want to make videos for from your existing distributed releases.
Choose your desired background from our extensive library (over a million clips!) or upload your video.
Use the editing tool to refine the selection and trim the clip for a specific range — right down to the millisecond. Enhance your video with premium styles and effects, tailoring it to match your artistic vibe.
Optimize the looping effect by choosing from three options: Hard-Cut, Rebound, and Fade Repeat.
Preview your creation, upload your audio for synchronization, pay for your video, and download it. That’s it!
Once you’ve downloaded your video, you can log in to your Spotify for Artists account and upload it there to add it to your track.
Follow these steps:
Canvas videos give listeners an exciting new way to engage with your music. But remember: In order to use Canvas, you need to be a verified artist on Spotify.
CD Baby makes Spotify artist verification fast and simple. Once you’re a CD Baby client and you’ve claimed your Spotify for Artists account, you should see Spotify Canvas as an option.
