How to Add a Cover Image to Your TravelAnimator Video

With the latest update in the Travel Animator app, you can now add a cover image to your animation. This feature allows you to create a strong opening frame, turning your travel route into a complete story from the very first second.

Whether you’re creating travel reels, YouTube intros, or itinerary videos, using a cover image helps your content look more polished, engaging, and professional.

In this guide, we will show you how to add a cover image to your TravelAnimator video, customize it with templates, and follow best practices and creative ideas.

What is a Cover Image in Travel Animator?

A cover image in Travel Animator is the intro frame of your video that appears before the animation begins. It acts like a title screen or preview, giving viewers a quick idea of what your journey is about.

Instead of starting your animation suddenly, the cover image lets you introduce your journey, highlight key destinations, add a title or context, and set the tone for your video.
