Other Benefits of Using LiveLink's YouTube Shorts Maker

LiveLink can speed up your short-form content by repurposing long YouTube videos. Besides that, you can also edit these clips to add a personal touch.

Here are some of the other things you can do with LiveLink:

Reframe YouTube Shorts To Fit The Theme of Your Video Content

Sometimes, the 9:16 vertical aspect ratio won't quite fit your content. Maybe the main subject is out of frame or too wide.

To fix this, LiveLink allows you to pick between three aspect ratios: 9:16, 1:1 and 16:9. These will help break away from the standard 9:16 mobile layout and cover more area.

So if the main subject is out of frame, you can pick a wider aspect ratio and readjust.

Add Captions and Branding to Create High-Quality YouTube Shorts

Viewers don't always listen to audio when browsing YouTube shorts. So to keep things interesting, it’s best to include captions in your short videos.

LiveLink does this automatically for each AI-generated short. It reads the audio and auto-generates TikTok-style captions to boost engagement.

On top of that, LiveLink also comes with a video maker app. You can customise these captions and edit the styling to fit your brand and target audience.

You can adjust the text in the captions and styling options such as the font, colour, alignment, size and more. You can also save these as presets or brand templates to speed up your workflow.

Trim AI-generated YouTube Shorts and Boost Engagement

Short-form content is very powerful, but it must be fast and snappy to keep viewers from swiping up.

So even if YouTube limits your short video to 60 seconds, it’s best to trim it down to 15-30 seconds. This increases your chances of creating a fast and strong impression.

You can use LiveLink's built-in video editor to trim YouTube shorts on the go. You can trim via the timeline or transcript and drive home the essence of your video content.
