How To Put A Video In A Mockup In Photoshop?

Go to Layer > Video Layers > New Video Layer from File. This creates a timeline-linked layer where the video plays frame by frame. Photoshop supports formats like MP4, MOV, and AVI.

Pro Tip: Make sure the Timeline panel is enabled under Window > Timeline before you add video.

Enable the Timeline panel. Select your video layer, then use the timeline to trim, reposition, add transitions, or apply effects. Photoshop treats video layers like frame-based objects that can be styled with filters or layer masks.

Select the video layer and press Ctrl+T (Windows) or Cmd+T (Mac). Drag the corners to scale. Use the top toolbar to enter specific dimensions. Press Enter to apply.

Open the Timeline. Click the stopwatch icon beside the property you want to animate, like position or opacity. Move the playhead, adjust the value, and Photoshop will interpolate the animation between keyframes.

Pro Tip: Animation can be applied to smart objects, including embedded videos.

Yes. Photoshop allows video import, timeline editing, trimming, effects, and export. Supported formats include MP4, MOV, and AVI. You can use it to create short product videos or mockup animations for e-commerce listings.

Pro Tip: If you’re creating 50+ videos for listings, Photoshop alone is not scalable. Use automation.

Go to File > Open and choose your PSD mockup file. You can also drag and drop a .psd file directly into the Photoshop workspace.

Use the Rectangle Tool to draw a placeholder. Convert the rectangle into a Smart Object. Open the Smart Object and insert a video layer inside. Save and close it, your video now appears inside the main mockup frame.

Import the GIF via File > Open, then copy its frames into your main PSD. Alternatively, drag the GIF into the canvas. Photoshop will treat it like a video layer and play it in the Timeline.

Record a short looped video of the product (shirt, mug, etc.) rotating or being used. Open a PSD mockup with a smart object, embed the video inside the smart object, and export using File > Export > Render Video.

This works well for scroll-stopping Etsy or Shopify listing previews.

Use static layers like a product image as your base. Add animation by embedding a video layer or using keyframe-based animation in the Timeline. Group or mask layers for compositing. Export via Render Video to preserve all motion.

Yes. Etsy supports MP4 files for product listing videos. Use Bulk Mockup to batch-render mockups from PSDs with video layers. Export in 1080×1080 or 1080×1350 for optimal listing display.

Pro Tip: Bulk Mockup helps you produce dozens of Etsy-compliant video previews without manual drag-and-drop per listing

Yes. Bulk Mockup supports PSDs with embedded video layers and automates the design injection. It then triggers Photoshop’s Render Video engine to export final files. The process works on timelines built into your templates.

Input: A folder of PNGs + a video-ready PSD.
Output: Dozens of animated mockups in MP4.

1. Use a PSD template with a video-enabled smart object.
2. Open Bulk Mockup and load your design files.
3. Set the export path, video format, and file naming rules.
4. Click start.

Each design will be injected into the template and rendered as a separate video file.
1. Manual time per file: 3–5 minutes
2. Bulk Mockup: 1000 mockups in under 10 minutes

Yes. Bulk Mockup lets you apply one or multiple designs across video PSD templates. It automates the file naming, export directory, and rendering via Photoshop’s internal video engine.

Pro Tip: Use this when you’re updating seasonal designs or launching new collections.

Canva and Placeit are template libraries. You get prebuilt scenes but no control over layers or automation. Bulk Mockup works inside Photoshop, giving you:

1. Full control over PSD layers and video effects
2. Batch export of 10, 50, or 500+ video mockups
3. No monthly rendering limits

It’s the only option if you want scalable, brand-consistent video production using your own assets.
