Guide: how to use Repurpose Long to Shorts
Every long-form video contains two to five moments that would work as Shorts — the reveal, the surprising number, the strong opinion, the before/after. Finding them by scrubbing through the timeline is slow, and framing them so they stand alone is the part most creators skip. Repurpose Long to Shorts identifies five clips with timestamp ranges, explains why each works, writes a framing script to open each one, packages a title and hashtags, and schedules them as a series.
