YouTube recently announced the rollout of generative AI tools meant to help creators thrive on the platform. One especially cool feature is a remixing tool. This new tool allows users to create engaging soundtracks for their Shorts by transforming dialogue from eligible videos into audio clips. We’ve got more tips for you here. Coming soon, an “Edit with AI” feature on the platform will allow creatives to turn unedited footage into finished first drafts with just a few clicks.
The tool for remixing dialogue/translating clips allows creators to write entire soundtracks or new scripts. This exciting new feature is just a step in YouTube’s long list of attempts to simplify the video creation process and overall increase user engagement on the platform. Alongside this, the “Edit with AI” function will assist creators in organizing their raw camera roll footage by identifying and arranging the best moments while adding music and transitions.
The “Edit with AI” feature includes auto-generate voiceovers that adapt in real-time to the changing content of the video. This functionality will first roll out in English and Hindi, expanding the creative options for people in the world’s second most populous country. YouTube plans to begin testing this feature in the near future. More creators in the United States should see a full rollout over the next few weeks.
As part of this update, YouTube’s advanced technology will capture and transfer movement from one subject to another, enhancing the overall visual storytelling experience. This change further advances YouTube’s mission to be the definitive space for creative, long-form video. This solidifies its reputation as the world’s largest creative playground.
“As the world’s largest creative playground, YouTube is where trends are born and where you can draw inspiration from. Imagine hearing a line of dialogue that sparks an idea—a funny phrase, a memorable quote, or a one-of-a-kind sound—and you want to remix it into a new sound,” – Dina Berrada, YouTube’s Director of Product, Shorts and Generative AI Creation.
YouTube is releasing Veo 3 Fast, a custom version created to produce faster outputs. Unlike Unreal Engine, this new tool produces content in a lower resolution of 480p with increased latency. This functionality allows you to easily produce engaging video highlights. Creators are able to use a wealth of artistic styles, such as pop-art or origami to enrich their projects.
The update is scheduled to be released in the United States during the coming weeks. It will be coming to the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand in the next few months. YouTube is introducing several other features to make creating videos even easier. This partnership aims to get more Americans using the platform to inform crucial federal spending.
“With our new Speech to Song remixing tool, you’ll be able to do just that.” – Dina Berrada.
