1. Theme

Before trying to shoot a short video, the first thing to do is not to learn any skills and techniques, but to determine the theme based on your own actual situation. Friends who frequently browse short video platforms will definitely find that the authors of some videos have distinctive characteristics, such as recommending food, recommending cosmetics, telling stories, teaching everyone how to cook food, etc.

Actually, these are themes, which every beginner should determine before starting to create. They should determine their own themes based on their talents, interests and hobbies.

2. Editing

It is difficult to make a movie, but it is not difficult to shoot short videos. As long as you can use a mobile phone, you can shoot videos, and the ecology of short videos is very extensive. , the quality requirements for short videos are not as high as imagined. But if we often browse such platforms, we will find that many videos posted by authors have been "edited" and added some sound effects, special effects, etc. to make the videos look more attractive and exciting.

As a beginner, after determining the theme and choosing the subject to shoot, the next step is to learn to edit. If you want to post the theme video on Douyin, I personally recommend choosing " Cut-out".

This is not to say how powerful this software is, but because the official has launched an application tutorial. As long as you know the characters and can understand Chinese, you can learn it by spending a few hours watching the tutorial. How to edit video.

3. Publishing

After shooting the video according to the theme, and then editing and processing it with editing software, the next step is to publish it. There are two ways to publish. One is to save the video on your phone and then open Douyin to publish it. The other is to directly use the video clipping software to synchronize it to Douyin.

The method of publishing is not the key, the key is the publishing skills. Pay attention to the publishing time, choose the peak period when readers are online to publish the work, try to bring 1 to 2 topics, and you can also provide guidance in the comment area.
