Here's a guide to help you create videos as quickly as possible:
1. Prepare before making video
Save time by:
Determine the video content: What is the topic? Who is the audience? (eg: advertisement, vlog, event…)
Prepare resources in advance: Video, images, background music, effects.
Write a concise script: Just outline it so you don't waste time editing it multiple times.
2. Choose fast video editing software
Video editing on phone:
CapCut (free, easy to use, with automatic AI cutting and merging).
VN Video Editor (intuitive interface, fast video export).
Kinemaster (many effects, color correction support).
Video editing on computer:
DaVinci Resolve (free, fast editing, professional color presets available).
Adobe Premiere Pro (professional, but requires powerful computer configuration).
Final Cut Pro (MacOS) (optimized for Mac, very fast video export).
Canva Video (easy to use, quick editing templates).
3. The fastest way to make a video
Import all files (video, photos, music, effects).
Use an existing template (if possible).
Use Auto Cut/AI feature (many apps like CapCut, Premiere support it).
Keep content concise (avoid editing too many small details).
Use available color presets instead of manually adjusting each parameter.
Export video in appropriate format (MP4, H.264 for optimal size & speed).
4. Create a quick highlight
Appropriate background music (use free music from YouTube Audio Library, Bensound...).
Simple transition effects (cut, fade-in/out, no distracting effects).
Insert text & subtitles automatically (CapCut, Premiere has AI feature to automatically recognize voice).
Do slow motion or timelapse if you want to create special effects without spending a lot of time editing.
5. Fast & quality video export
Export at 1080p resolution (if fast, lightweight is needed).
Use H.264 or HEVC codec (optimized for size).
Reduce bitrate if you don't need very high quality (especially when posting to social media).
Use fast exporting software like HandBrake (reduce size without reducing quality).
Summarize:
Prepare content carefully before editing.
Choose the right tool for your needs & equipment.
Use templates & AI for quick cutting and pasting.
Keep content brief and avoid editing too much detail.
Export video in optimal format for faster performance.
