Part 1: How to Edit YouTube Video after <\/strong>U<\/strong>pload with YouTube Built-in Editor<\/strong> <\/strong><\/h2>\n
Many people have already uploaded their videos to YouTube and then would like to make some changes like adding subtitles, cutting video, etc. to their YouTube uploads. Can you edit YouTube video after upload? Yes, you can. YouTube offers a web-based video editor that is completely free and accessible through its platform to help you edit YouTube video after upload in multiple ways. <\/p>\n
\n![\"\"](\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\")
<\/a>\n<\/div>\nYouTube’s video editor is an extremely basic editing tool, but it can still let you trim clips out of any part of your video. Firstly, you need to sign in to your YouTube (or Google) account. To get access to YouTube Video Editor, you can go directly to YouTube studio (video editor). Or click avatar icon in your “YouTube site > YouTube Studio”. Then, follow the below guide to learn how to edit YouTube video online after upload right in the video platform. <\/p>\n
Edit the videos as you like<\/strong> <\/strong><\/h3>\n
Step 1. Open the video you want to edit in the YouTube Studio video editor. <\/p>\n
Step 2. Click "Trim" under the video preview. <\/p>\n
Step 3. Drag the blue bars on the left and right edge of the video timeline to set the start and endpoint of the video. <\/p>\n
Step 4. In the bar at the bottom of the screen, click "Preview" to see the change. <\/p>\n
\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\nStep 5. You can continue to make additional changes — click "Edit Trim" to reenter the edit mode and then click "Preview" to make the additional change. <\/p>\n
Step 6. When you're done making changes to your video and want to save these edits to the published video, click "Save" at the top of the screen. Note that you can't save your changes to a video until you first click the Preview button at the bottom of the screen. <\/p>\n
Cut a section out of the middle of a video<\/strong> <\/strong><\/h3>\n
Step 1. Open the video you want to edit in the YouTube Studio video editor. <\/p>\n
Step 2. Click "Trim" or "Edit Trim" under the video preview. <\/p>\n
Step 3. Position the vertical bar in the timeline where you want the edit to begin.<\/p>\n
Step 4. Click "Split" in the bar at the bottom of the screen. <\/p>\n
Step 5. Click on the vertical bar and drag it across the timeline to the end of the cut. You should see a dark region that identifies where the video will be cut. You can fine-tune the split by dragging the two bars in the timeline. <\/p>\n
\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\nStep 6. Click "Preview" to implement the change.
\nStep 7. When you are done making changes to your video and want to save these edits to the published video, click "Save" at the top of the screen. <\/p>\nB<\/strong>lur a person or object in the video<\/strong> <\/strong><\/h3>\n
You can also use the YouTube video editor to blur elements in the video like faces or license plates. <\/p>\n
Step 1. Open the video you want to edit in the YouTube Studio video editor. <\/p>\n
Step 2. Click "Add Blur" in the timeline. YouTube will open the old Video Manager, since this feature hasn't yet been implemented in YouTube Studio (Beta). <\/p>\n
\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\nStep 3. Click "Edit" beside "Blur Faces" or "Custom blurring." If you choose to blur faces, the app will automatically scan for faces and add blurring on its own. If you choose the custom option, you can draw boxes in the video to indicate where you want to blur, and YouTube will move the boxes around the screen to continue to cover the object even if it moves within the video. <\/p>\n
Step 4. When you're done, click "Save" and then click "Return to YouTube Studio." <\/p>\n
Change video settings<\/strong> <\/strong><\/h3>\n
YouTube Video Editor also provides the "Quick fixes" function which does a quick analysis of the video and tweaks its color, brightness, and contrast settings automatically. <\/p>\n
\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\nYou can just double click the video to enter the "Quick fixes" tab and easily change brightness and contrast, add slow motion and pan zoom effect, and stabilize, audio fix or rotate video. <\/p>\n
Add filters<\/strong> <\/strong><\/h3>\n
Double click the video and switch to the "Filter" tab\u00a0to add stunning video filters <\/p>\n
Add text to video<\/strong> <\/strong><\/h3>\n
To add text to video, go to the "Text" tab, tick "Enable text" and enter the text to the text column. Then customize the font, size, color, position of the text as you like. <\/p>\n
\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\nAdd music to video<\/strong> <\/strong><\/h3>\n
YouTube Video Editor also provides quite a few wonderful audio tracks for you to add as video background music. To do this, on the main interface of the editor, click the Audio tab. Then select a song from the library and either drag it to the soundtrack timeline or press the plus sign to the right of each title. <\/p>\n
\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\nIt should be noted that some songs are subject to licensing agreements, which means YouTube will automatically add advertisements to the video clip. Meanwhile, you can’t do anything upon these audio tracks, even they are shorter or longer than your video clip is. <\/p>\n
Add transitions to video<\/strong> <\/strong><\/h3>\n
If several video clips have been added to the timeline, you need transition to make the whole project smoother. To add transition, go to the Transition tab and choose from 16 transition effects. <\/p>\n
\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\nWell, through these operations, you could easily edit YouTube video online after upload. Unfortunately, YouTube has discontinued some of these video editing features. From 20th September 2017 users will no longer be able to use the complimentary editing suite. \u00a0And now you could do much less than before. <\/p>\n
Part 2: Limits of YouTube Built-in Editor<\/strong> <\/strong><\/h2>\n
YouTube’s built-in video editor has provided quite great convenience for us to retouch your uploaded YouTube videos. However, there are quite a few limits of YouTube’s built-in video editor: <\/p>\n
- \n
- The built-in video editor of YouTube only offers some basic video editing features. If you need some professional and advanced video editing, it would not do the job. <\/li>\n
- As mentioned above, YouTube video editor offers various choices for you to add background music. But you can do nothing upon these audio tracks like its length, audio effect (fade in, fade out, etc.), etc. <\/li>\n
- It requires strong Internet connection. If the Internet connection is not stable, the work efficiency will be decreased greatly. <\/li>\n
- The biggest question is that YouTube has discontinued the built-in editor for you to edit YouTube videos after upload. Most features mentioned above have been unavailable, like trimming, cutting, adding filter, etc. But you still are able to add subtitles\/CC, add audio tracks, etc. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
