The basics

What is a prize wheel animation?

A prize wheel animation is a video of a wheel of prizes spinning and stopping on the one that's been won: a discount, free shipping, a mystery gift, or “Try again”. Shops and creators use it to announce a giveaway winner, to tease a sale, or to show the result of a spin that happened off camera.

This one opens on eight prizes on the Ember look, with lights round the rim that chase while it spins and flash three times when it stops. It's set to Close call, so the wheel crawls over the last peg and only just makes it into the winning slice, which is 50% off. Change the prizes, the winner and the words, and it lands on yours.

The result is yours to set, not drawn at random. For a real giveaway, pick the winner fairly first and then make the video to match.

To put it on your video, see how to add a spinning wheel in CapCut, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve and Final Cut Pro.

How it works

How to make a prize wheel animation.

Four steps, about a minute, and nothing to install.

  1. 1

    Fill the wheel

    Type 2 to 12 slices, up to 18 characters each. Long labels shrink or split onto two lines to fit their slice. Add a title, and a word of up to 6 letters for the middle.

  2. 2

    Choose where it stops

    Set “It stops on” to the winning slice. Choose Middle, Natural or Close call for where the pointer comes to rest, and the line shown over the result, such as “You won”.

  3. 3

    Set the spin and the look

    A spin of 2 to 12 seconds, 2 to 12 turns, and 1 to 6 seconds resting on the result. Then one of six looks or two slice colors of your own, with or without the rim lights.

  4. 4

    Download the MP4

    Press Download. The video is rendered in your browser at 1080p and saved to your device. No account, no watermark.

When a spinning wheel isn’t enough

The free spinning wheel is the starting point.

Here you get a wheel that stops where you tell it. In Rescroll you describe the graphic you want, such as “a wheel of our five sponsors that spins as I say ‘who's paying for lunch’ and stops on Acme, with their logo popping out”, and it's designed from scratch on your own video. Attach logos or a screenshot of your style and it matches them; ask in the chat for any change.

Questions

Prize wheel animation: your questions, answered.

How do I make a prize wheel animation?

This page opens on one. Replace the eight prizes with your own under Slices, set “It stops on” to the prize that was won, change “You won” if you like, and press Download for a 1080p MP4.

Can I use this to pick a giveaway winner?

Not on its own. The wheel stops on the slice you choose, so it shows a result rather than drawing one. Pick the winner with a fair method first, then set that slice here and use the video to announce it.

How do I make the wheel stop right on the edge?

Choose Close call under “Where it stops”. The wheel slows almost to a halt on the slice before, ticks over the last peg and comes to rest just inside the winner. Middle stops dead centre, and Natural stops a little off centre.

Can I use my brand colors on the prize wheel?

Yes. Set Slice colors to “Two colors” and choose your own pair; the slices alternate between them. The text on each slice switches between dark and white so it stays readable.

Is the spin the wheel maker free?

Yes. It's free to use and free to download, with no account, no email address and no watermark on the video. There's no limit on how many you make.

What format and resolution is the video?

An MP4 with H.264 video, at 1080p in the shape you choose: 1080×1920 (9:16) for TikTok, Reels and Shorts, 1920×1080 (16:9) for YouTube, 1080×1080 (1:1), or 1080×1350 (4:5) for the Instagram feed. You can export at 30 or 60 frames per second.

Can I get the spinning wheel with a transparent background?

MP4 can't store transparency, so the spinning wheel comes ready to key instead. Set the background to green and remove it with chroma key in your editor. Only the spinning wheel is left over your footage.

Is my video uploaded anywhere?

No. The spinning wheel is drawn and encoded on your own device, using your browser's built-in video encoder. Nothing is sent to a server and there's no render queue.

Can I use the spinning wheel in client work, ads or monetized videos?

Yes. The video you download is yours to use in personal and commercial projects, with no attribution needed.

Can I match my brand, add my logo or change the design?

Not in the free maker, which is deliberately simple. That's what Rescroll's AI motion graphics are for: describe the graphic you want in plain English, attach your logo, fonts or a screenshot of your style, and it's designed from scratch on your own video, placed around you and timed to the word you say. Ask for any change in the chat. It's part of the Pro, Ultimate and Scale plans.
