How To Make A YouTube Video Fast!

Use Your Phone To Make A YouTube Video
This will be a “trial” video just to understand how all this works :-)
Software I may be using:
- video filming app or tool – for example an iPhone, Android etc
- video creation app feature in Canva (using several scenes or slides)
Basic Steps:
- create the footage – (a) use your phone’s video camera or (b) use another footage file – OR – (c) make a video without any video footage (text and images only)
- my example shows my free Canva account where we will edit a pre-made video by using a Template
- choose Home / Template / Video / Video to see the Templates
- to learn the basics, choose one with with 3 to 5 scenes or slides
- swap out the temporary text with your own
- change fonts, sizing, colour etc on the text
- change images and backgrounds
- add the very important CALL TO ACTION (with a link) at the end
- export/save/Download to Desktop to play and watch.
- Congratulations! You’ve just created a video! Perfect for marketing, training, product catalogues etc.
Other options:
- add background music if required
- add voiceover if required
- use AI (Artificial Intelligence) to brainstorm the content – words, scenes, ideas for product shots etc
