SHORT

How to make a perfect loop for TikTok

QUICK NOTE: LIGHTING!
One of the biggest giveaways of
a cut is when the lighting of the
environment changes. Be very
mindful of the lighting when
shooting and editing your loop-
ing TikTok video. Try your best to
keep the lighting as consistent as
possible. If there’s a sudden jump
in lighting, it doesn’t matter how
seamless your cuts are. If the light-
ing makes a drastic change, your
viewers will know instantly that
the video was cut at that moment.

UPLOADING ONTO TIKTOK
Once you’re done editing your Tik-
Tok video, you’re ready to upload
your perfect loop.
Here are all the steps you need to
do when uploading:

Planning is key to creating a successful loop. Consider how the video

will be edited before you shoot.

GO INTO TIKTOK APP

• Click on the + sign when on your TikTok


• Go to Upload


• Export the video you have stored on your phone
  (rotate video if you need to)
  •Upload video privately first to see what the video
  looks like on TikTok
  •If you like how it turned out, change the privacy set-
  ting to public

THAT’S ALL THERE IS TO IT!

Looping videos may seem hard to do, but with just

a simple few cuts and planning, they are simple and

fun. They also do very well on TikTok; there’s definite-

ly satisfaction is watching a perfect loop.
