Great, however, could be improved with quicker selection of initialing or signing. Maybe a way of clicking at the point of initialing and pasting without having to select each time you have to initial as slow if having to do lots of initialing.

Why You Should Add a Video Watermark Even a simple URL of your website can be very effective in helping you to stick in the mind of the viewer. The second major benefit of video watermarking and probably the most important is so that your videos don't get ripped off!
One answer is to use watermarks. A watermark is a still image that overlaps a video. It can cover the entire dimension of the video, sit in the center of the video, or rest neatly in one of the corners. It can be opaque, though most of the time it will be transparent as to not interfere with the video itself.
Switch from the Videos to the Photos tab to find and select your logo, watermark, image signature or just any photo you want to overlay. Touch the Done button in the top right corner to add it. Now you will see the logo, watermark, image or signature over the video in the Edit screen.
Step 1: Upload Video. To add your logo on a video, you'll need to use a video editing program. Step 2: Add Logo. When your video has loaded on the screen, upload, copy/paste, or drag your PNG logo onto the screen. Step 3: Position and Size Logo on Video. Step 4: Process and Share.
A watermark may use your company's name, your personal name, or your logo. Again, the watermark itself is not a copyright. Your work is already protected by copyright the moment it is created and the watermark can serve as a reminder to others not to steal your images because you are copyright protected.
Section 1202 of the U.S. Copyright Act makes it illegal for someone to remove the watermark from your photo so that it can disguise the infringement when used. The fines start at $2500 and go to $25,000 in addition to attorneys' fees and any damages for the infringement.
Watermarks DO NOT Protect You From Piracy In no way, shape or form, does a simple watermark protect you. The only exception to this is a full image watermark, the kind that stock photography companies use to protect images. These are impossible to remove completely.
Copyright is actually a group of rights: the right to display an image or photo, the right to make, sell or distribute copies of it and the right to create adaptations or derivative works based upon the image or photo. Who Owns The Copyright to A Photograph? Nonexclusive rights can be transferred orally.
