What is End screen ?

Also called: outro

The final seconds of a video used to point viewers to the next action.

End screen (outro) — The final seconds of a video used to point viewers to the next action.

An end screen is the closing moment that directs viewers to another video, a playlist or a subscribe button. It's prime real estate: someone who watched to the end is your most engaged viewer, so telling them exactly what to do next keeps them in your world.

Faceless videos bake the next-step prompt into the script and on-screen text so every video ends with a clear path.
