This tutorial will show you how to change the look of a video player on your Squarespace site. A few important things to note before you copy and paste this into your own site:

+ There is more than one way to do this! This is just one approach of many because code is super customizable.

+ There are a TON of creative things you can do with border codes. To learn more about borders, visit https://insidethesquare.co/borders

+ The play button icon we are editing is visible when you upload a thumbnail for the video. If you donโ€™t upload a thumbnail image, your โ€œplayโ€ button wonโ€™t be editable.

//โ€“ add a border around the video
.sqs-video-wrapper{border: 1px solid #50bdb8;

//โ€“ add a shadow to the video
.sqs-video-wrapper{box-shadow: 5px 5px 20px rgba(0,0,0,0.2);}

//โ€“ layered offset background color
.sqs-video-wrapper{box-shadow: 20px 20px 0px #50bdb8;}

//โ€“ add a circle around the play icon
.sqs-video-icon {border: 5px solid #fff; border-radius: 50%;}

//โ€“ change the play icon from white to black
.sqs-video-icon {filter:invert(100%)}
