However, more often, people prefer to watch content that is concise, straightforward, and easily digestible. These fun-sized content types have become so popular that each social media platform has created its versions of them, such as YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels. But making them on top of your normal content can be a hassle, which is why we are going to dive into how you can create short video clips from longer videos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, let us go through it step by step!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Are_Short_Videos_the_Hype\"><\/span><strong>Why Are Short Videos the Hype?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Short videos are highly addictive, and platforms like Instagram have made Reels the centrepiece of content discovery.

Because short videos are not just little snippets from a long video. They are much more than that. These videos also contain important aspects such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>A stunning hook<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Interesting body content<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>And a stellar CTA that brings them to your profile for more<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>So, to create short video clips, you need to have a system and a plan in place. So, let us go through it step-by-step to create a video that goes viral.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1. Research Viral Content in your Niche<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before any work, the first step should always be about laying a strong foundation with in-depth research. And in this case, it is to find out what is going viral or being well-received in your niche.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By finding out what is loved by your audience, you can start creating short videos that match this preference. Or find snippets in your long videos that match these preferences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you find out the snippets that you want, crop them and store them separately so you can edit them appropriately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Content Curation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you know what is in demand in your niche, you have to start curating your existing content to find the relevant pieces. So that you can figure out if you have to shoot additional content to make it coherent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is a rough idea of the steps you will go through when curating your content:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Identify your brand strategy<\/strong> and how this short-form content will align with it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Based on your strategy,<strong> figure out the overall aesthetics<\/strong> of the video and also its contents.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Go through your long-form video that is related to this topic and <strong>split it into subtopics<\/strong> so you can see which ones will be most suitable for the clips.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Select the appropriate content snippet<\/strong> to use. This snippet can either be motivational or address a problem the user is facing, a how-to guide to help solve an issue, and so on.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Figure out if you have to<strong> film additional content<\/strong> to make the video more coherent. Because let\u2019s face it, a continuous snippet from a longer video is not very appealing. <a href=\"https:\/\/predis.ai\/resources\/video-moderation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Consider video moderation<\/a> to ensure the content flows smoothly and maintains viewer interest.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>See if the content is roughly <strong>suited for the platform<\/strong> on which it is going to be posted. For example, Instagram prefers visually appealing content, so if your video is text-heavy, then this might not suit the platform.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. Restructure content<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the step where you put together a rough layout of your video content. So, get your pre-existing snippets ready, and film any additional content that you may need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you have your videos ready, you need to figure out how to put them together in a way that will be interesting to watch. To do that, you can use a storytelling formula that I swear by.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The AIDA Formula:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>AIDA is a copywriting formula that is effective for a variety of reasons. For starters, this format utilizes behavioral psychology to influence people and capture attention. But the concept can even be used to make your videos a hit, and this is how you can do it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Start your content with a hook<\/strong> that stops people mid-scroll. This can be done by using a surprising fact, a controversial take, a how-to guide for a common problem, or even just telling them the value they will receive at the end of the video.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Once you have your audience hooked,<strong> delve into the core concept <\/strong>of the video. Have these points detailed clearly without too much fluff. Get right to the point and convey the information in a coherent manner.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The last and final part of your video is to take the engagement the video generated and use it to make a conversion. And this can be achieved by using a creative and engaging <strong>CTA at the end of the video<\/strong>. These CTAs can be anything from asking them to subscribe to your channel or telling them to sign up for an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mailmodo.com\/guides\/email-newsletters\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">email newsletters<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. Edit into a Final Product<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Everything you need to create short video clips is set and ready to go. Now, all that is left to do is assemble them into content that will be liked by your audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To start, combine all the video snippets into a single piece of content. You are bound to notice some sort of jumps, awkward transitions, and irregularities within the video. This is where you have to start cleaning up the video to make it coherent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once your video is clean, you can add visual elements such as changing captions, emojis, branding elements like logos, and make it appealing. To further boost discoverability, consider optimizing your videos with <a href=\"https:\/\/joseangelostudios.com\/youtube-seo-services-agency\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">YouTube SEO services <\/a>that help your clips rank higher, attract more viewers, and sustain engagement long after posting.
