How to Convert YouTube Talking Head Videos to Pinterest Vertical Videos

It Just Takes a Few Minutes Using PowerPoint

Transcript

Today I want to show you how you can take a talking head YouTube video formatted in horizontal format and make it into a vertical Pinterest or TikTok video.

I showed you one example where basically you took a video and you stretched it to fit in a vertical PowerPoint template.

I'm going to take a talking head YouTube video that I just made and I'm going to bring it into a PowerPoint template. As you can see, it's a small video right now but what I'm going to do is make it into a talking head Pinterest video.

You can drag, drop, and stretch your video to fit the size that you want it to fit.

The PowerPoint video template features just my head, not all the background. I’ll place the YouTube video at the bottom of the template featuring only my talking head and then I’ll insert a text box at the top of the new vertical video.

First rule, always give more than you get. And that's what the video is going to be about. I’ll make the text box colorful with white type.

Now, what I'm going to do is the same thing I did in the previous podcast, which is to save as this PowerPoint slide as an MP4 video.

You can take other videos where you're not just distorting them to be tall and thin, but you're actually taking a part of the video, a part of the landscape of the video, and putting that into the new vertical video that you're creating.

PowerPoint offers a very simple way to take a YouTube talking head video and format it to a vertical Pinterest video. This is a very simple way to take a wider video and still make it tall and narrow.
