I am looking to add a stamping effect in the beginning of my video. Something that you see at the end of commercials where the hand comes in and stamps down the logo of the company. I can't seem to find anything that I can use!!

Hi Bobby -

I would take the simplest route & make "the hand" understood... i.e just have the stamped result with a sound effect.

An example is attached with an image of the timeline & the two SFX used.

Cheers - Tony

As usual, Tony is on top of things, and goes the extra step.
I created these PIPS for a public policy video, stampers, and a few "results" from the stampers!

The link seems to wander away from the specific PIPS, so try the link, then go to pages 5 and 6 of my effects.

Hi Bobby31,

Lots of good help above, from some of this forum’s best.
And though my offering here may not be exactly what you’re after, for what it’s worth, here is another example of adding a Stamp Effect in PowerDirector 11 (or previous versions).

You can view the 720p HD version on Youtube’s large player here. . .

If this is something along the lines of what you (or anyone else) is wanting to do as a Stamping Effect. Then just send me a PM and I’ll send you a link to the (29MB) zipped Packed Project Folder download of this short project.
Once downloaded and un-zipped, you can then insert / load it into “your” PowerDirector11 timelines, via the enclosed .pds file.
And then you can observe and modify this Stamp Effect to better suit your needs.
