YouTube's New Creation Tools

YouTube has announced new creation tools for Shorts, set to arrive this spring.

  • New & Improved Editor: Edit Shorts with precise adjustments, zooming, snapping, and music integration.

  • Edits Synced to Beats: Clips automatically align to the rhythm of the chosen music.

  • Templates: Apply photos from a user's gallery to custom templates and effects, with proper attribution.

  • Image Stickers: Transform images into stickers for Shorts.

  • AI Stickers: Create personalized stickers from text prompts.

Why It Matters: Just a week after revealing a forthcoming update for how Shorts views will be calculated, YouTube is back with even more tools to level up short-form content creation and editing. These new features, similar to what we’ve seen on TikTok and Instagram, highlight YouTube’s growing commitment to Shorts.

On another note, it’s been a while since we’ve seen any updates to YouTube Create.
