Creating a watermark that moves every so many seconds to a different corner without manually marking

[SysMeltdown]

Please help me. I have class recordings that are approx. 9 hours long, and I need to watermark them, but the watermark needs to switch corners every 10 seconds. I have read about creating one and have inserted one in the video for the entire length. Furthermore, I understand about setting markers to switch corners, but it's 9 hours long! I can't try scrolling every 10 seconds and changing the position, as I would be here next year still trying. Can someone please give me instructions on how to:

• Set a watermark to switch corners every 10 seconds without doing it manually.
• Either have a method to save or have it be easy to remember/repeated.

This is only Day 1 of a 2-day class that's repeated for 3 different subjects several times a month.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, as this has to be done quick, so our classes are not pirated; and this is how the boss wants it,

One way would be to create a transparent video with just the watermark and do the 4 corner moves, copy and paste to make 8 moves, copy and paste again to make 16.... etc save to 9 hr video and then add it on a higher track on your edited main videos

I sincerely apologize, but this is all new to me. Can you explain how to do all that? 😞 I have my .MP4 that I import, and the .PNG Watermark file. Then, I drag the watermark above my timeline and let go. Then, I extend it in both directions to cover the entire recording, and then click on it and adjust in effects panel as far as opacity and size. That's literally all I know. I am truly sorry, but if you could somehow explain it, I would be eternally grateful. I have a beast of a laptop, but I need to learn this. He doesn't want animation, just every 10 seconds have it pop to the other corner. I'm trying hard to understand, cause this means a lot more money for me.

I just implemented an automation for this in my (paid) extension Automation Blocks for Pr.

How to use it:

1) download and install Automation Blocks (works also with the trial version)

2) download the automation XML file I wrote (you can also find it in the Community Library at 

Clips/Keyframes/Add Motion/Selected Clips - Jump Between Corners.xml

3) Open Automation Blocks in Premiere Pro and load the tool downloaded in step 2 (using the "load" button in the Automation Blocks menu)

4) The inputs panel of Automation Blocks now contains the user interface of the tool. Set the hold duration parameter to 10 for 10 seconds
5) put your watermark layer in the timeline and place it in one corner (using Motion->Position and Motion->Scale in the Effect Controls)
6) make sure the watermark layer is selected in the timeline and run the tool using the "Run Script" button of Automation Blocks.

Automation Blocks will then generate a hold position keyframe on the clip every 10 seconds, placing it on one of the four corners.

The positions it picks are calculated based on the positition the layer has when the tool is launched. So if the layer is in the top left corner, for example, with a 10% margin, then Automation Blocks will use a 10% margin for the other corners, too. note that this also means that when the layer is exactly in the middle of the comp, it will always stay there. So make sure to really put the layer in a corner before running the tool.
