How to make DJ video intros from your footage

Build a short visual entrance that leads into the first performance moment.

Start with the moments that tell the story

Bring your performance footage, supplied artist name and event title. Pick the takes that make the subject clear, including a strong opening and a complete ending. These choices give Shorty a useful starting point for the edit.

Give Shorty the creative direction

Build a short visual entrance that leads into the first performance moment.

Try a 10-second 16:9 edit as a starting point. Include the exact title or closing message you want on screen. Add a reference when you want to show the pace, captions or mood.

Try this editing prompt

Create a 10-second 16:9 video from my your performance footage, supplied artist name and event title. Build a short visual entrance that leads into the first performance moment. Use my supplied wording for titles. Keep the artist and event identity correct and match cuts to the supplied audio.

Make the next version more specific

Keep the artist and event identity correct and match cuts to the supplied audio.

Play the first cut and pick the change that would help the story most. Name the moment, describe the result you want and tell Shorty what to keep. A note such as “hold the final product shot longer” gives the revision a clear direction.

Questions, answered.

What footage should I use?

Your performance footage, supplied artist name and event title. Choose the takes that support the sequence you want.

Can I use a different duration or format?

Yes. The 10-second 16:9 prompt is a starting point. Describe the length and canvas your video needs, then check the rendered result.

Your next video starts here.
