Best practices

New to video editing? Here are a few guidelines to help you understand when to speed up or slow down your video.

When to speed up video

Often videos benefit from a faster pace in scenarios where you want to:

  • Create a short video that might otherwise take a long time to watch, or is a good length for social media.
  • Speed up slower moments in a video, but you don't necessarily want to edit it out.

Examples: Arts and crafts videos, vlogs, make up tutorials

When to slow down video

Slowing down a video is a great idea if you’re looking to:

  • Create a mood that’s thoughtful or dreamy.
  • Emphasize details in fast-moving content that may otherwise be too quick for viewers to appreciate.

Examples: Sports videos
