How to turn long videos into shorts fast
Clip once, export many. Build a repeatable process for Shorts, Reels, and TikTok.
Pick moments that keep retention
- Start with a hook in the first second
- Keep one idea per clip
- Cut aggressively — remove pauses
Add captions for clarity
Captions increase comprehension and make clips watchable without sound. Keep lines short and readable.
Export and publish
- Export in vertical formats when possible
- Use consistent titles and hashtags
- Publish on a schedule (daily or 3×/week)
