"Google announced today a new feature\u00A0for YouTube that will let\u00A0creators upload a 3-second intro clip that\u00A0will play before all of their channels' videos.\r\n\r\nIn order to take advantage of the feature, channel\u00A0managers upload the intro as an unlisted video, select &amp;quot;Add a channel branding intro&amp;quot; on the InVideo Programming Page and then choose on which videos the clip should play.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nOne caveat, however, is that Google won't allow these intro videos to serve as\u00A0ads, sponsorships or product placements.\r\n\u27A4 Boost your channel\u2019s recognition using new intro videos [YouTube Creators blog]\r\nThumbnail\u00A0credit: Bulent Kilic / AFP / Getty Images"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
