How to make short pitch videos from your footage

Build a concise problem, solution and proof sequence with a clear closing request.

Start with the moments that tell the story

Bring a founder or presenter take, product proof and approved pitch facts. 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.
