Because Shorts YouTube still competes with Tiktok, the Platform announces new upcoming functions that help developers to publish engaging movies with short forms.
The creators will gain access to an improved video editor, the ability to generate AI stickers, a function that synchronizes the content with the rhythm of the song, improved templates and many others.
The new tools are launched a few days before the term Tiktok Ban on April 5. Considering the time of announcement, YouTube is probably looking for court creators on his platform and uses a potential void left by Tiktok if he is a ban in the United States.
YouTube claims that the new and improved video editor will allow users to easily adapt the time of each clip, move or remove the clips to create a rough version, add music or time text and preview their short to make sure that he tells the story as they want. YouTube plans to introduce additional editing updates in the future.
The company notes that the improved video editor was the most important request of short creators.
Tiktok is known for solid editing tools, so YouTube makes sense to provide their creators with access to more of the same tools. In addition, the launch of an improved video editor is significant because it is said that the finish line is a few weeks from the release of the “edition” application, which allegedly competes with Capcut Bytedance.
As for the new AI stickers, the creators will be able to generate non -standard stickers with a simple text line. In an example made available by YouTube, the user can generate a “strong plant with muscles” sticker.
YouTube shorts will also introduce the possibility of adding stickers to photos to their videos. For example, the creators will be able to share various options for the inspiration of the outfit by sending photos from the camera roll and transforming them into imaging stickers.
In addition, the creators will soon be able to choose a song and automatically adjust their clips with the rhythm of music. Earlier, the creators would have to manually synchronize clips with songs.
The function seems to be similar to the CapCut “Beats” tool, which automatically synchronizes music with clips.
YouTube will also improve the templates because users will be able to download photos from the gallery and use them in templates. The company also plans to add effects in templates. Given the popularity of the effects on Tiktok, exploration is also sensible, especially since they can sometimes create trends.
New functions are expected to appear in the coming months.
