We have been telling the negative story about AI and education a lot.

Pick up any newspaper, open any parent forum, and you will find the same anxiety playing out in a loop:

> AI gives students instant answers, students stop thinking, students become intellectually dependent and academically dishonest.

The villain is clear. The verdict is in. AI is making the next generation dumber.

I have heard that story so many times that I almost started believing it myself.

Then I came across a piece by the team at [Every](https://every.to/podcast/inside-an-ai-high-school-through-the-eyes-of-a-17-year-old-founder), where Dan Shipper sat down with Alex Mathew, a 17-year-old high school senior in Austin, Texas. What followed was one of the most optimistic conversations about the future of education I have encountered in a long time.

I felt a genuine urge to amplify it, because it deserves a wider audience than it may otherwise reach.

## **A School That Turned The Classroom Inside Out**

![](https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:1400/0*5TVvFxio11uK7q0m)

Mathew attends [Alpha High School](https://alphahigh.school/), part of a rapidly expanding network of kindergarten-through-grade-12 private schools that have made a radical decision: **no traditional teachers.**

Academic content is delivered entirely through an AI-powered learning platform called **_Timeback_**. The adults in the room, known as “guides,” do not teach curriculum. Their job is to support students emotionally and keep them motivated.

The school day begins at 8:30 a.m. with what Mathew describes as “Tony Robbins for kids.” Before any academic work starts, students spend 15 minutes shifting from “home mode” to “school mode.”

They might debate an LLM, solve a puzzle, or discuss something interesting they found on X. Students are grouped into “houses,” Hogwarts-style, based on personality and the progress they have made on their individual projects.

Then comes the academic block: two to three hours of focused learning, structured into 27-minute intervals with five-minute breaks. Timeback delivers a personalised stream of videos, articles, and quizzes, some built by Alpha, others sourced from third-party providers. AI runs quietly in the background, customising what each student sees and tracking where their understanding has gaps.

And crucially, there is **no AI chatbot tutoring anyone**. Alpha tested that approach but it did not work.

When students had open access to a chatbot, they used it to cut corners. When the chatbot was restricted, it became useless. So the school moved on.

The AI serves the _learning architecture_. It does not replace the student’s thinking.

## **Motivation is The Real Curriculum**

![Alex Mathew, a 17-year-old student from Alpha High School. Source: Every](https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:1400/1*fJembDG7ez-dbeO72bQN6Q.png "Alex Mathew, a 17-year-old student from Alpha High School. Source: Every")

Here is the insight from Mathew that has stuck with me: “It is 90 percent motivation, 10 percent education technology.”

That ratio matters. The school does not rely on AI to do the heavy lifting. It relies on genuinely motivated students. The AI is the infrastructure. The drive to learn still has to come from somewhere human.

Alpha builds that motivation in several ways. For subjects a student loves, the content itself is the reward.

Mathew breezes through AP Psychology because it connects directly to his startup, a company called [Berry](https://berryplush.com/) that he is building around an AI-stuffed animal designed to help teenagers manage their mental health.

@[youtube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OS1bvr1p94)

For subjects students dislike, the school gets inventive, offering students money toward their projects or invitations to social outings, called “FOMOs,” when they hit their targets.

The school also gives students something most educational institutions never offer: **genuine agency.** Mathew negotiated with his guides to complete his first semester early so he could fly to San Francisco and work on Berry full-time, then return to finish his second semester without losing credits.

That is not a loophole. That is the design.

## **The Barrier that Motivation Alone Cannot Solve**

![Photo by Taylor Flowe on Unsplash](https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:1400/0*I5wFLWdF3a9KGcxg "Photo by Taylor Flowe on Unsplash")

Reading about Alpha High School, I kept thinking about a different kind of barrier: **not the absence of motivation, but the absence of access.**

I recall coming across [Nippon.com](http://Nippon.com)’s article last year about the growing need for specialised Japanese language instruction in Japan. As of the fiscal year 2023, nearly 70,000 students in elementary, junior high, and high schools required this support, a number that has more than doubled over the past decade.

Interestingly, in 70 percent of the schools where these students are enrolled, there are only four or fewer students needing such instruction. This small ratio makes it challenging for local governments to justify dedicating specialised staff to address the issue effectively.

In fiscal 2023, 970 school-age foreign children were confirmed not to be attending school at all. That represents a 24.6 percent increase over the previous year.

Taking into account children whose attendance status was unclear, the number of young people potentially excluded from education entirely may reach 8,601.

These are not students lacking motivation. They are students locked out of a learning environment because it operates in a language they cannot yet follow.

The AI-enhanced classroom that Alex describes at Alpha High could not help them if the lesson itself is inaccessible.

That is the gap [VideoTranslatorAI](https://videotranslator.ai/) was built to close

## **Real-time Translation, Built for Education**

Our multilingual **video call** platform allows students and teachers to speak in their own language during live sessions. AI handles real-time translation for every participant simultaneously.

Every person in the session receives subtitles in their chosen language as the lesson progresses. A natural voice-over translation also runs in parallel, which participants can activate or mute depending on how they prefer to learn.

In practice, this means a teacher conducting a session in English can be understood in real time by a student following along in Portuguese, another in Vietnamese, and a third who has switched on German voice-over.

No lag. No parallel tracks. No student sitting in silence because the content moved faster than their ability to translate.

The platform extends to **multilingual broadcasting** for larger events: universities, global training programmes, and educational conferences. A single session streams to hundreds of participants, each receiving live subtitles and voice-over in the language of their choice. The institution runs the session once. The translation happens automatically.

![Multilingual broadcast with VideoTranslatorAI](https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:1400/1*OXlR2HoNvmVz1tBlStM3Eg.png "Multilingual broadcast with VideoTranslatorAI")

The connection to what Alpha High School has built is not just thematic. Both approaches rest on the same conviction: **friction is the enemy of learning.**

At Alpha, the friction is a rigid structure that does not adapt to individual students. In the classrooms VideoTranslatorAI serves, the friction is language.

Remove the friction, and students can finally get to the actual work of thinking, growing, and making sense of the world.

## **Why This Story Deserves A Wider Audience**

@[youtube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-xBQE8A-3E)

I am grateful to Dan Shipper and the Every team for the episode that sparked this piece. What they offered was something rare: a conversation about AI and education conducted with the people actually inside it, rather than the people theorising about it from a distance.

Alex Mathew is building a startup at 17. He is thinking carefully about the tradeoffs in his generation’s relationship with technology. He is navigating his own education with more intentionality than most adults bring to their careers. And he is doing it at a school that trusted him enough to let him design his own path through it.

That is the story worth repeating. Not because AI is a panacea. Not because every school should look like Alpha. But because when technology is designed around what students actually need, rather than what is administratively convenient, genuinely remarkable things become possible.

At VideoTranslatorAI, we are trying to do the same thing for language. Because the student who cannot follow the lesson should never be written off as uninterested.

They may simply have never had the chance to understand what was being said.

A 17-Year-Old Founder Shows the Future of AI Education

As the world becomes more interconnected, international events continue to rise.

However, many organisations still face challenges in effectively reaching multilingual audiences, whether at global conferences, academic lectures, policy briefings, or corporate town halls.

The growing global nature of many aspects of life then highlights the need for tools that can broadcast messages seamlessly in multiple languages, ensuring inclusivity and meaningful engagement.

Without a reliable multilingual broadcasting tool, diverse attendees may struggle to follow key presentations, missing out on valuable insights and critical information.

In this article, we’ll learn about multilingual broadcasting—its evolution, how AI is enhancing its accessibility, and how AI-powered multilingual broadcasts actually work.

Let’s dive in!

## What is a Multilingual Broadcast?
[Broadcasting](https://restream.io/learn/what-is/broadcasting/) essentially refers to transmitting audio or video content to a wide audience through various communication mediums, such as radio, television, and now, the Internet.

It is typically one-way communication, with the sender distributing information to multiple recipients at once.

The primary purpose of broadcasting is to **disseminate information, educate, entertain, or influence** a large audience efficiently.

From public service announcements to live sports and educational content, broadcasting plays a key role in mass communication.

A **multilingual broadcast** refers to this same process but with content delivered in **multiple languages simultaneously** to reach diverse, multilingual audiences.![AI-Multilingual-Broadcast.webp](https://storage.googleapis.com/vtai-web-media-prod/cms/originals/blog-inline/7558bdfe08cc058b1f0ac82f632d6e6bbb57a1d6a974a47c2b92bc900dd2c651.webp)

## When Did It All Begin?
Historically, the earliest form of broadcasting emerged in the mid-1890s. It started when an Italian electrical engineer, Guglielmo Marconi, found a way to use radio waves to transmit Morse code wirelessly [(Whitaker, 2022).](https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/origin-broadcasting-stacy-whitaker/)

In the early 1950s, television became the primary broadcasting medium,  transforming how information and entertainment were delivered to the masses. The evolution continued through the 1960s with pioneering satellite experiments, which led to the rise of Direct Broadcast Satellites (DBS) in the 1980s.

Along with this development, satellite transmission served as the backbone of modern broadcasting. However, while satellite delivery remains in use today, internet-based streaming platforms are gradually displacing it in popularity.

Building on this digital shift, broadcasting has expanded beyond traditional TV and radio. Live streaming, webinars, and virtual events now enable content to be broadcast globally in real-time—often via the Internet.![AI-Translation-Services.webp](https://storage.googleapis.com/vtai-web-media-prod/cms/originals/blog-inline/c89f32e2ca2fe8fdb37a00cdab13f7644c2437bd28c2c0514af804b4e6978ba1.webp)

## The Rise of Multilingual Broadcasting
Globalisation, remote work, cross-border collaboration, and the rise of international education have all contributed to increasingly diverse and multilingual audiences.

As events, classes, and conferences increasingly involve international participants, there’s a growing demand for making broadcasts accessible to speakers of different languages.

Relying solely on subtitles or post-event translations often falls short, as delayed delivery can hinder understanding and discourage real-time engagement.

In contrast, real-time multilingual broadcasting allows everyone to follow the message as it unfolds, making it especially valuable for fast-paced settings such as live announcements, global webinars, or international forums.

## How AI-Powered Translation Makes Broadcasting More Accessible
The advancement of artificial intelligence can play an important role in breaking language barriers. One of its most powerful contributions is the ability to provide real-time translated captions in multiple languages.

Whether it’s a live conference, a virtual classroom, or a global product launch, AI can instantly generate subtitles that allow diverse viewers to follow the message in the language they’re most comfortable with.

This not only boosts understanding and participation but also ensures that non-native speakers aren’t left behind in fast-paced, information-rich settings..

Besides inclusivity, AI-powered translation offers a more **cost-effective solution** than traditional human interpretation.

Although live interpreters are highly skilled, their availability, cost, and language coverage can be limited, especially for events involving audiences from multiple language backgrounds.

Broadcasters can use AI to support dozens of languages at once, often with built-in tools that are scalable, efficient, and easy to integrate into existing platforms.

That combination of speed, reach, and affordability redefines what it means to make broadcasting truly global.

## How Does an AI-Powered Multilingual Broadcast Work?
Right after the broadcast starts, the AI begins capturing the speaker’s voice through a microphone. This process is followed by a transcription, where the spoken words are turned into written text.

The AI then quickly translates that text into multiple languages so that viewers can read captions or subtitles in their own language. Some tools are even equipped with voice-overs, aiding those with limited vision.

This whole process happens almost instantaneously, making it easier than ever to include and engage a global audience.![AI powered multilingual broadcast process](https://storage.googleapis.com/vtai-web-media-prod/cms/originals/blog-inline/27d01fe317ed267b8c7a0e8b8a1bfe4e7c27db8cad9095413bd491ebf3cae357.webp)

Reaching a Global Audience: A Guide to AI-Powered Multilingual Broadcasting 

Let's learn about AI-powered multilingual broadcast tools—their evolution, why we need them, and how they work!

Previously, we learned how to add subtitles to YouTube videos. We also know we can download our SRT file from YouTube instead of manually creating it in TextEdit or other apps. Sadly, some major platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and Snapchat don’t natively support traditional subtitle formats like SRT. As these platforms become increasingly vital for video marketers, ensuring your content is accessible to international audiences and those with hearing impairments is essential.

In this article, you’ll learn how to tackle this challenge by creating burned-in subtitles for your videos using Adobe Premiere Pro 2024!

## What is Burned-in Subtitle?

[Burned-in subtitles](https://fliki.ai/blog/burned-in-subtitles) are text permanently embedded into a video file. These captions are always visible and cannot be turned off or removed. Therefore, burned-in subtitles can ensure your video content is accessible to everyone, regardless of their location, language, or device. Burned-in subtitles are ideal for social media where the audience doesn't have control over the playback settings.

## Benefits of Burned-In Subtitle

Burned-in subtitles offer several advantages:

**Text Customization**: You have complete control over how the text looks. You can customize the font, size, colour, and style to align with your brand guidelines.
**Compatibility with All Platforms & Devices**: Burned-in subtitles are compatible with all platforms and devices. This is because your subtitles are embedded in the video, so they will appear as long as your video is successfully uploaded.
**Protection Against Piracy**: Embedded subtitles can deter unauthorized distribution by making it more difficult to remove or alter the subtitles.
**No Sync Issues**: Burned-in subtitles eliminate the risk of synchronization issues that may occur with external subtitle files, ensuring perfect timing with the video.

## Creating Burned-In Subtitles with Adobe Premiere Pro

You can create burned-in subtitles in Adobe Premiere Pro using the following three methods:

Create burned-in subtitles in Premiere Pro 2024, from adding text to exporting video. A quick, expert guide to pro subtitles.

How to Create Burned-In Subtitles with Adobe Premiere Pro 2024

English is considered the lingua franca of the internet. Though the use of other languages has started to grow, a [study](https://www.twinword.com/blog/features-of-top-250-youtube-channels/) revealed that of the top 250 YouTube channels, 66% of the content is in English. According to the [Internet Society Foundation](https://www.isocfoundation.org/2023/05/what-are-the-most-used-languages-on-the-internet/#:~:text=English%20was%20often%20considered%20the,Internet%20were%20also%20English%20speakers.), one reason is that English is the world’s most commonly taught second language. This leads to a self-reinforcing cycle, where English content attracts more viewers than content in other languages.

This situation has made subtitles play a substantial role in the daily internet consumption of non-English speakers. Subtitles are also beneficial for increasing your video’s accessibility for those who are hearing impaired. Adding subtitles will help people understand your video content, even with the sound off or in a noisy environment. So, it’s no wonder that [80%](https://www.kapwing.com/resources/subtitle-statistics/#:~:text=80%25%20of%20People%20Prefer%20Video,Here's%20How%20they%20Affect%20Engagement.) of viewers prefer to turn on video subtitles while watching.

Now that you understand the importance of subtitles, it’s time to learn how to boost your YouTube videos’ accessibility with them. In this blog post, you will find several ways to add subtitles to YouTube videos. Let's dig deeper into this\!

## **Automatic Captions**

Recognizing the importance of subtitles, YouTube can now generate automatic captions. However, these automatic captions are only available in limited languages, namely Arabic, Dutch, English, French, German, Hebrew, Hindi, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese.![Generating Automatic Captions on YouTube.webp](https://storage.googleapis.com/vtai-web-media-prod/cms/originals/blog-inline/8ab3b7101f4313caf1ebeb11c1dc8d8a27d851be5c078347ace1803ffb6f0731.webp)
**Generating Automatic Captions on YouTube**

Although this feature offers efficiency, we highly recommend you create subtitles yourself. This is because YouTube automatic captions typically provide about [60-70% accuracy](https://itss.d.umn.edu/centers-locations/media-hub/media-accessibility-services/captioning-and-captioning-services/correct#:~:text=YouTube%20automatic%20captions%20typically%20provide,3%20words%20can%20be%20wrong.), which means 1 in 3 words can be wrong.

## **Adding YouTube Subtitles by Typing Manually**

Typing your subtitles manually might sound tiring, but it guarantees you accuracy. To create manual subtitles, you just need to follow these steps:

1. Sign in to your YouTube account.
2. Click the profile icon on the top right corner \> YouTube Studio.![Go to YouTube Studio](https://storage.googleapis.com/vtai-web-media-prod/cms/originals/blog-inline/ff8fb715694f7527bbfedf615b2cf761dfc75e1439a2ef97094fac3bb2a57da6.webp)
3. Click Subtitles \> Choose the video for which you want to add the subtitle.

It depends.

If you own your own video, it definitely is\! Sometimes you just want to repurpose the audio for other content. You are also free to convert non-copyrighted or royalty-free videos.

4 Easy Ways To Convert Your Video To Mp3

In a world where there is a sea of video content available to watch on YouTube, branding is very important. You need to be able to make your video content stand out and recognisable.

One of the crucial parts of branding is adding video watermarks.

In this article, we will be talking about what is video watermark, why is it important, and how to make and add one to your video. Let’s check it out\!

# **What Is Video Watermark?**

If you have seen a video with a logo in it, usually in one of the video corners, that is a watermark.

A video watermark can be a logo, text, website URL that you want to add to your videos for copyright or publicity purposes.![Definition of watermark](https://storage.googleapis.com/vtai-web-media-prod/cms/originals/blog-inline/7424dc58c0f567cbd8ab028acaef615033f9c26b8658be823423db8fcad678f1.webp)

The usage of video watermarks is similar to ones used for postage stamps, currency, and other government documents to discourage counterfeiting.

# **Why Is Video Watermark Important?**

## **1 \- Brand Recognition**![Adding watermarks to your videos allow viewers to consistently see your brand](https://storage.googleapis.com/vtai-web-media-prod/cms/originals/blog-inline/0efed3dfd9d35ea55ca0fe57d81b3e3a86820c8989fca7f87784e0616473c087.webp)
Adding watermarks to all of your YouTube videos will allow viewers to consistently see your brand. The goal is for your viewers to recognise you by just seeing your brand design, such as video watermark, YouTube channel art, and YouTube thumbnail. Therefore, having a video watermark can deliver an incredible brand experience.

## **2 \- Protect Your Content**![a watermark is required to protect your content](https://storage.googleapis.com/vtai-web-media-prod/cms/originals/blog-inline/38ee1ac5c80df7a8707186c387a6963321b633d1f68ef8c47b2f0b4581c7d1a9.webp)
Videos get shared all the time and often times the original creator does not get credited for your work. Some may even claim the stolen videos to be theirs. So, to avoid video theft, a watermark is required to protect your content.

# **How To Create Watermark For YouTube Videos?**

If you don’t already have a logo, there are many free graphic design tools on the internet that you can use to create one. One of the sites people often use is Canva.

Here’s how you can create your watermark in Canva:

1. Go to [canva.com](https://www.canva.com) and **sign in** to your account.
2. **Select** templates and **click** on logos.![Create Watermark For YouTube Videos using Canva](https://storage.googleapis.com/vtai-web-media-prod/cms/originals/blog-inline/49cf7bdef68da68cf29a5bb0498a94047478a7a7046636de769dbc34f5f1ef5e.webp)
3. You can either **create** a blank logo or **choose** from one of the templates.
4. If you want to make your logo background transparent, make sure to save it as a PNG and tick the ‘transparent background’ box before you **save your image**. If you don’t want a transparent background, you can save your image as JPG.![download your logo on canva](https://storage.googleapis.com/vtai-web-media-prod/cms/originals/blog-inline/f7d34ba7ff475404e812840878521d3358f91f63f51f30c2b48a0778fd0a5f2b.webp)
# **How To Add Watermark For YouTube Videos**

There are 2 methods when it comes to adding video watermarks. Just like video subtitling, you can either add it from YouTube or have it burned in your video.

## **1 \- Add Your Video Watermark From YouTube**

YouTube has a branding option for you to add a video watermark directly to your video. This method works best if you already have videos uploaded on YouTube.

1. **Sign in** to your account and go to YouTube studio.
2. On the left side panel, scroll down to customisation and **click** on branding.![Add Your Video Watermark From YouTube](https://storage.googleapis.com/vtai-web-media-prod/cms/originals/blog-inline/5fc4da82cc3a5c7cf5bd0706947dbe65ef2aafdd74ddc603820d62722fc0a549.webp)
3. **Upload** your video watermark. Make sure that you follow YouTube’s recommendation to ensure the quality of your watermark.
 Currently, YouTube’s recommendation is:
 \- 150 x 150 pixels.
 \- Use a PNG, GIF (no animations), BMP, or JPEG file.
 \- 1MB or less.
4. **Edit** the duration of your watermark. You can choose from end of *video, custom start time, and entire video.*

If one day you want to change your logo, you can simply upload a different logo and all of your watermarks will be updated\!

## **2 \- Add Your Video Watermark From Video Editing Software**

Although YouTube has a branding option where you can brand your video with your channel, your video can still be stolen. There are many second-party tools out there that people use to download YouTube videos. Unfortunately, when someone does this, your watermark gets removed.

The solution for this problem is by embedding your watermark into your video. By embedding your watermark, you will ensure that your watermark will stay on your video permanently.

One example of video editing software we often use is Adobe Premiere Pro.

Here’s how to add a video watermark from Adobe Premiere Pro:

1. **Open** or **create** your project in Adobe Premiere Pro.
2. **Import** your logo to your timeline. Make sure that you set the duration of the watermark from the beginning to the end of your video.![Insert your logo in premiere pro](https://storage.googleapis.com/vtai-web-media-prod/cms/originals/blog-inline/2e63768f81fb7750c05356f18586a9c36611393dec6c52616de493688f8ac356.webp)
3. **Export** your video and voila\! Your video will now have a watermark embedded in it. You can now upload your video on YouTube without having to set up the watermark settings on YouTube.

The best part about embedding your watermark into your video is that it does not matter where you share your video (YouTube, Facebook, Instagram), your watermark will be there.

However, because it is permanent, your video will still have your old logo if you one day decide to change it.

## **Title**

Adding a title allows your viewers to know what they are going to watch.

## **Opening Credits**

Opening credits are used to introduce the film, main casts, and its creative teams.![opening credits of the TV series Brooklyn 99](https://storage.googleapis.com/vtai-web-media-prod/cms/originals/blog-inline/10e93596d24a3dc067b162daf480c0820086fa8d5bd149dd92cae63f24973d23.webp)

## **Advantages and Disadvantages of Using Type Tool**

(+) It is easy to add to your video. You can just type T on your keyboard and the text can be easily added.

(+) You can get creative with your text. The text can be edited according to your liking. It’s basically just like painting on a blank canvas.

(-) Being creative also means that you have to keep exploring the options. If you do not have an idea of what kind of text you want to add, using the Type Tool is kind of a pain.

## **Browse Templates**

The Adobe Premiere Pro app comes with different custom templates for you to add text. Some of the examples are titles, opening credits, closing credits, introductions (sports, news), and many more.

If you feel like there aren’t enough templates for you, you can always add more by going to Adobe Stock.

Here’s how to add text with Adobe Premiere Pro’s templates:

1. Go to the Essential Graphics panel. If you can’t find it, go to **Windows \> Essential Graphics.**![Using essential graphics to add text in premiere pro](https://storage.googleapis.com/vtai-web-media-prod/cms/originals/blog-inline/6e54706e2e3c1888debe8f45e49ca42c4a954b992e8f49d14e5233b0de8dae47.webp)
2. **Scroll** through the templates.
3. When you find the one you like, **drag** the template to your timeline.![Use essential graphics to add text in premiere pro](https://storage.googleapis.com/vtai-web-media-prod/cms/originals/blog-inline/8978037695faa12e399628d181b738456ea41d0a924662cf33bdb63c6f0705fd.webp)
4. To **edit** the text, double click the text on your program panel or type T on your keyboard and click on the text. You can edit it the same way as you would using the Type Tool.

## **Advantages and Disadvantages of Using Templates**

(+) There are so many templates to choose from. Using one helps you minimize the time taken to edit your videos.

(+) They already contain effects, such as fade in or fade out. This way, you don’t have to manually add effects to the text anymore.

(-) You can’t really be creative with it. The work is already done by someone else. Therefore, customizing it to your own liking is a bit hard.

How to Import and Edit SRT File To Adobe Premiere Pro 

Short video makers are an up and coming category of apps that are really hitting the ground running in China. Short video clips (even less than a second long) have been gaining in popularity along with social platforms like Instagram and Snapchat, and especially in China with Wechat and Weibo. The social component to online video broadcasting has changed how we consume short videos, and what we expect from them.

A recent [research project by Music Ally](https://musically.com/2019/07/31/next-tiktok-short-video-apps-china/) supposed that the short video app space in China could be a predictor of what is yet to come globally. In this article we give a basic overview of some of the major short video makers in China and what unique features they have to offer.

## What is a short video app?

It depends on what app you’re using and what you’re using the videos for, but a short video app is essentially, an app that makes short video clips. Some apps have specific use cases such as converting iPhone Live Photos into gif’s or short movies so that they can be shared on social media, while others exist to create a slideshow type sequence of photos. Some apps might have this feature built in (like Instagram) whilst others are standalone apps, or can be linked onto social media apps. Most short video makers tend to have some form of social component.
