How to create viral clips from a long video

Viral Clips turns long-form footage into shorter moments for social publishing. Use it to repurpose webinars, interviews, podcasts and other extended videos into focused clips.

This guide follows the complete regular-user workflow for starting a project, supplying the source video and choosing the clip settings.

When to use this

  • You want to repurpose a webinar, podcast or interview for social channels.
  • You need short highlights from an existing long-form video.
  • You have either a public video URL or a video file to upload.

Generate clips from a long video

  3. Upload the video instead

    If you do not want to use a URL, switch to the upload option and add the source video file manually, then complete the same clip settings.

Before you generate

  • Use a clear source with intelligible speech and a stable picture.
  • Choose a target language and clip duration suited to the destination.
  • Review each extracted moment before publishing it out of its original context.
