Over the years, social media platforms have witnessed the success of short-form video content. With YouTube being the latest app to join the bandwagon, creators are now looking to capitalize on this opportunity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, unless you&#8217;re already creating short-form videos of anywhere between 15 to 60 seconds for Instagram and TikTok, you&#8217;d have to start afresh for YouTube Shorts. This is where one of the app&#8217;s latest updates can be of help &#8211; YouTube now allows users to create Shorts out of existing videos, making the process a whole lot simpler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The highlight of this feature is that you&#8217;re not just limited to using an existing video but can also add content that&#8217;s freshly recorded. You can also <a href=\"https:\/\/predis.ai\/resources\/download-youtube-shorts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">download YouTube Shorts<\/a> for quick re-purposing. If you&#8217;ve been waiting for this feature and wondering how you can re-purpose existing videos into Shorts, we take you through the process step-by-step.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Should_You_Repurpose_Existing_YouTube_Videos_Into_Shorts\"><\/span>Why Should You Repurpose Existing YouTube Videos Into Shorts?&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several different reasons why you could benefit from repurposing your existing YouTube videos into Shorts. Some of these benefits are described below.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">It Makes Content Production Faster and Easier&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike shooting and editing content for new videos, repurposing your existing videos is faster and easier. It doesn&#8217;t require you to have any advanced editing skills and also provides a bank of existing content that you can use to create short-form content.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">It Allows for a Wider Reach&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Short-from content has become a lot more popular than long-form content in recent years, and with YouTube Shorts averaging about 1.5 billion daily active views, you can reach a much larger audience. This allows you to increase your views and subscriptions without having to invest time into creating brand-new videos each time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">It Helps You Gain More Views and Followers&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another key benefit of creating YouTube Shorts is that it can be a great way to get more views and, ultimately, increase your channel&#8217;s following. Shorts typically include a link to the original, longer video, and once you build a loyal following, the chances of viewers also consuming your longer videos increase.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-32dce167\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-1eaf0bc7\">\n\n<p class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-eb8d5cb7 gb-headline-text\"><strong>Stand Out on YouTube Shorts with AI Content <\/strong>&#x1f31f;<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-da0e51fb\">\n\n<a class=\"gb-button gb-button-1b38301a gb-button-text\" href=\"https:\/\/app.predis.ai\/signup\/?bref=blog-ctayt101\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Try Now<\/a>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Create_YouTube_Shorts_from_Existing_Videos\"><\/span>How to Create YouTube Shorts from Existing Videos&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In this section, we take a closer look at the various steps involved to create YouTube Shorts from your existing videos.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1 &#8211; Choose the Video You Want to Repurpose<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/predis.ai\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Repurpose-Youtube-videos-1024x1009.jpg\" alt=\"Selecting the 'Remix' option on a YouTube video\" class=\"wp-image-27228\" width=\"441\" height=\"435\" srcset=\"https:\/\/predis.ai\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Repurpose-Youtube-videos-1024x1009.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/predis.ai\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Repurpose-Youtube-videos-300x296.jpg 300w, https:\/\/predis.ai\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Repurpose-Youtube-videos-768x757.jpg 768w, https:\/\/predis.ai\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Repurpose-Youtube-videos-96x96.jpg 96w, https:\/\/predis.ai\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Repurpose-Youtube-videos-150x148.jpg 150w, https:\/\/predis.ai\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Repurpose-Youtube-videos.jpg 1258w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 441px) 100vw, 441px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step involved in the process is to select the long-form video you intend to repurpose. This could be the latest vlog or video you&#8217;ve published on your channel and want to gain more views on.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, it could be a video posted by another creator or channel. To select this, you&#8217;ll have to tap on the&nbsp;<em>Remix<\/em>&nbsp;icon below the video.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It could even be a video that offers your audiences valuable information that could stand a better chance of reaching a wider audience when condensed into a video lasting no more than 60 seconds.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2 &#8211; Start Creating Your YouTube Short<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/predis.ai\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Create-new-video-565x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Creating a new Short\" class=\"wp-image-27231\" width=\"283\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/predis.ai\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Create-new-video-565x1024.jpg 565w, https:\/\/predis.ai\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Create-new-video-166x300.jpg 166w, https:\/\/predis.ai\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Create-new-video-150x272.jpg 150w, https:\/\/predis.ai\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Create-new-video.jpg 762w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 283px) 100vw, 283px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you choose a video to repurpose into a YouTube Short, the app automatically imports all the clips and audio into the interface.
