Montage
The best Short is not always one unbroken minute.
A speaker sets up an idea in minute four and lands it in minute thirty-one. A Continuous clip has to pick one of those. Montage takes 2 to 8 moments from across the video and joins them into one Short that tells the whole thing.
- 2 to 8 moments per Short
- Picked from the whole video
- Each cut adjustable in the editor
- Available on every plan
Source video
Continuous
One uninterrupted segment
Montage
4 moments, one story
Continuous or Montage
Both are clip types you choose before generating. Continuous stays the default; Montage is for videos where the point does not sit in one place.
| Continuous | Montage | |
|---|---|---|
| What a Short contains | One uninterrupted part of the video | 2 to 8 moments joined into one story |
| Works best for | A self-contained answer, tip or demo | An idea built up across the whole video |
| Fixing the edges | Trim the in and out points | Adjust each source cut separately |
| Plans | Every plan | Every plan |
When one segment is not enough
Some videos never say the whole thing in one breath. These are the cases Montage was built for.
Setup and payoff far apart
A question early in a podcast and the answer half an hour later. Montage can put both into the same Short instead of leaving one out.
Answers that wander
An interview answer with a long detour in the middle. Joining the parts that carry the thread keeps the Short tight without cutting the point.
Recaps from one recording
Several tips from one lesson or several reactions from one stream, joined into a single Short that works as a recap.
