Process

Repurposing

You might say: clipping, cross-posting, cutting down

Making several posts from one recording: clips from a long video, and versions in each platform’s shape and length. YouTube’s own tool cuts up to 60 seconds of your long video into a Short that links back to it.

What it does

Gets more reach from one shoot.

Ask

Which moments stand alone without the rest of the video?

Trouble

A 16:9 video posted to a vertical feed with tiny text and black bars.

What to look for

1. The same moment in each platform’s shape and length
2. Tiny text and black bars after a 16:9-to-vertical post
