YouTube Shorts is YouTube's way of breaking into the short video market. Historically, YouTube focused on long-form content, but in 2021, they began experimenting with short, vertical content, which provides a great opportunity to content creators. Expand into this new frontier with CapCut.

A YouTube short must be less than 60 seconds. Additionally, it should be formatted vertically. To produce a high-quality short, use one of CapCut's preset canvases. This ensures that your video will be produced in the proper format. But remember, keeping your video under 60 seconds is up to you.

If you wish to add footage to one of your short videos, import the original clip into CapCut. From there, you can edit your footage and add in other clips. However, check the restrictions on the platform you wish to upload your video to. For example, if you want to upload it as a YouTube Short, it can't be longer than 60 seconds.
