How to make voiceover videos from your footage

Align the visuals with what the narration explains and leave complete sentences intact.

Start with the moments that tell the story

Bring footage with your recorded narration already attached and relevant visual inserts. 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

Align the visuals with what the narration explains and leave complete sentences intact.

Try a 30-second 9:16 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.

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.
