1:52 | Now that you know what Shorts are, why should you use them? |
1:56 | People are watching more and more Shorts around the globe. |
1:59 | The YouTube Shorts player has now surpassed 6.5 billion daily views globally. |
2:05 | With its own separate viewing experience, think of it as an additional way |
2:08 | for you to create and reach new audiences who've maybe never seen your content before. |
2:14 | Shorts shouldn't have any major impact |
2:16 | on the performance of your regular YouTube videos. |
2:18 | And we're keeping your subscribers in mind. |
2:20 | So, we'll only send Shorts notifications |
2:23 | to subscribers who regularly watch Shorts content. |
2:26 | Now, let's walk through how to create a Short. |
2:29 | To get started, tap the Create button, then tap Create a Short. |
2:34 | If you want to add a song to record to |
2:36 | tap "Add music" to view a selection of tracks you can choose for free. |
2:41 | To record a clip, press and hold the Capture button |
2:45 | or tap it to start recording, and then again to stop. |
2:49 | You can tap Undo to remove the previous video clip you recorded |
2:53 | or tap Redo to add it back. |
2:56 | Tap Speed to change your recording speed. |
2:59 | And tap Timer to choose the length of your countdown |
3:02 | that shows before you start recording, and to choose where your recording stops. |
3:07 | A line lets you match up the clip you're about to record |
3:10 | with the previous clip. |
3:12 | You can also add filters to your Short. |
3:15 | Once you're done, tap Next to preview your Short. |
3:18 | Here, you can add music, if you haven't already |
3:21 | or text to your completed Short. |
3:24 | When you add music, you can adjust what part of the song you want to play |
3:29 | and its volume. |
3:31 | When you add text, you can use Timeline to add multiple text snippets |
3:36 | and control when text appears and disappears. |
3:39 | Once you're happy with your Short, tap Next to add details |
3:42 | like title and visibility. |
3:44 | We recommend adding #shorts in your title to help with discovery. |
3:49 | In addition to making something from scratch |
3:51 | we've made it easier for you to make your own version |
3:54 | of someone's video that inspired you. |
3:56 | So, you can also create Shorts using someone else's original audio. |
4:01 | To do this, from an eligible video, tap the Music icon |
4:05 | then tap "Use this sound" to create a Short. |
4:09 | Or, you can go to a video's watch page and under the video player |
4:13 | tap Create to create a Short. |
4:15 | Keep in mind that if you choose to use audio from someone else's video |
4:20 | the owner may delete their original content at any time. |
4:23 | When this happens, any Shorts that used the audio will be muted |
4:27 | set to unlisted, and will be scheduled to delete in 30 days. |
4:31 | But don't worry, we'll email you a reminder before your Short is deleted |
4:35 | so you can download a version that doesn't include the audio. |
4:39 | Outside of this creation process, remember that you also can upload |
4:43 | any vertical video 60 seconds or less using YouTube's regular upload process. |
4:49 | Finally, let's walk through some best practices for using Shorts. |
4:53 | Any content category can be successful on Shorts |
4:56 | but here are some short-form best practices that can help. |
5:00 | Focus on making the first few seconds captivating |
5:03 | to grab viewers' attention and keep your content snappy. |
5:07 | Remember that Shorts loop, so pace your content accordingly |
5:10 | and think of ways you can encourage replayability. |
5:13 | Try making your content relevant |
5:15 | by incorporating a trending moment, event, or song |
5:19 | relatable by using your authentic voice or showing a behind-the-scenes moment |
5:24 | or rewarding by making content that educates or entertains |
5:28 | or leaves your viewers feeling good. |
5:30 | You can also get inspired by the YouTube Shorts community |
5:34 | by checking out our pivot pages for other channels |
5:36 | specific audio tracks, or hashtags. |
5:39 | You can post Shorts on your main channel |
5:41 | or start a second channel. |
5:44 | Should you decide to keep your Shorts on main |
5:46 | the Shorts section on your channel homepage |
5:48 | can make it easier for your viewers to distinguish between Shorts |
5:52 | and your regular long-form videos. |
5:54 | Be sure to give Shorts a try and let us know what you think |
