    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is the Long Video to Short Video AI tool?
    Revid AI's Long Video to Short Video converter is a powerful AI video repurposing tool designed to help you effortlessly convert long videos to short, engaging, bite-sized clips. Upload your existing long-form content, and our AI will automatically identify the most compelling moments, add dynamic B-roll, generate accurate captions, and create multiple short videos perfect for TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, and other social media platforms.
    How do I use this AI to convert my long videos into shorts?
    It's simple to create shorts from long videos! 1. Upload your video file or paste a YouTube link. 2. Set your preferences: enter keywords if you want specific content extracted, choose the number of short clips (our AI short video maker can generate 1-3), select the aspect ratio (e.g., 9:16 for shorts), and opt for B-roll. 3. Click 'Generate Clips.' Our AI video clipper will process your content and create shareable shorts in minutes. You can then review and perform AI video editing before downloading.
    What types of long videos can I use with this tool?
    Our AI video repurposing tool works with a wide variety of long-form video content, including webinars, interviews, video podcasts, educational lectures, product demos, vlogs, and gameplay streams. As long as there's clear audio for transcription and content to extract, our AI can transform it into compelling short video clips ideal for social media.
    How does the AI decide which parts of my long video to clip?
    Our AI uses advanced algorithms to analyze the transcript of your video. You can guide it by providing specific keywords or phrases in the 'Specify what you would like to get extracted' field to extract clips from video AI. If no keywords are provided, the AI will identify segments it deems most engaging or informative based on content analysis. It's designed to find those 'aha!' moments or key takeaways that make great short video content.
    Can I customize the B-roll and visuals in my short clips?
    Yes! You can enable the 'Add B-Roll' option and choose the type of media: stock videos, moving AI images, AI-generated video, or even use your own media. This allows you to create visually rich short videos that capture attention. If you prefer no additional B-roll (e.g., for gameplay or a direct talking head segment), you can select 'Static / Gameplay' or disable the B-roll feature.
    What happens to the audio from my original long video?
    The original audio from the extracted segments of your long video is used in the short clips. Our tool focuses on clipping and enhancing the video; it doesn't replace or alter the original voice. We also automatically generate captions from this audio to make your shorts more accessible and engaging, which is crucial for viral video clips.
    Can I edit the short video clips after they are generated?
    Absolutely! Once Revid AI generates your short clips, you can use our integrated video editor to make further refinements. You can adjust timings, fine-tune captions, change B-roll selections for specific scenes, and ensure each clip is perfectly polished before you download and share your automatically generated video clips.
    How many short clips can I generate from one long video?
    You can choose to generate 1, 2, or 3 distinct short video clips from your long video in a single process. This allows you to quickly get multiple pieces of content from one source, maximizing your video repurposing efforts with our social media video converter AI. Each clip will focus on different engaging moments identified by the AI or your keywords.
    What aspect ratios are available for the short videos?
    Our Long Video to Short Video AI supports the most popular aspect ratios for social media: portrait (9:16) ideal for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts; landscape (16:9) for standard YouTube or website embeds; and square (1:1) for Instagram posts or other feeds. You can select your desired ratio before generation to ensure your content is perfectly formatted.
    How does the 'Use the whole audio' option work?
    The 'Use the whole audio' option allows you to transform your entire long video by adding B-roll and captions throughout, rather than extracting short clips. This is useful if you want to enhance an existing long-form piece with fresh visuals without shortening it. The primary function, however, is to create short, viral clips by extracting key moments.
    What is the 'Use high quality audio transcription' option?
    For an additional credit cost, the 'Use high quality audio transcription' option provides an even more accurate transcript for your video captions. This is beneficial for videos with technical jargon, multiple speakers, or challenging audio conditions, ensuring your captions are as precise as possible for your AI-generated shorts.
    What are the costs for using the Long Video to Short Video AI?
    The credit cost for using this tool depends on your selections. Generating clips involves a base credit usage, with potential additional credits for features like high-quality transcription or specific B-roll types. The number of credits available depends on your Revid AI subscription plan. Please check our pricing page for detailed information on credit consumption for this automatic video clip generator.
    Where can I share the short videos created by this tool?
    The short video clips generated are optimized for all major social media platforms. They are perfect for creating viral content on TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, Facebook Stories, LinkedIn video posts, and more. The selectable aspect ratios ensure your content looks native to each platform when you repurpose video content AI.
    How can I get more credits to create more short videos?
    If you need more credits to convert your long videos into numerous short clips, you can easily upgrade your Revid AI subscription plan. We offer various tiers with different monthly credit allocations to suit your content creation needs. Visit our pricing page to explore the options and upgrade instantly to continue using our AI video clipper.
