New YouTube Shorts Tools

In its pursuit to invest in short-form video, YouTube has recently announced six exciting new features coming to Shorts.

The first of these features is Auto Layout, which will help you convert your longer-form videos into Shorts using automatic panning, zooming, and cropping.

Auto-generated captions are on their way, as are text-to-speech narrations that will read any text you have in the Short out loud.

The new ‘Add Yours’ sticker, which we’ve spoken about before, will encourage viewers to create their own follow-on videos from your Short.

Plus, a ‘Remix a Remix’ option is on its way, which will allow you to remix an existing remix of a Short.
