Full transcript
- 0:00when editing short form content the
- 0:01difference between a short that gets 100
- 0:03views and one that gets a million views
- 0:05isn't just luck it's psychology and the
- 0:07way you edit your video I've analyzed
- 0:09over 1,000 viral shorts across social
- 0:12media and realized that every single
- 0:14viral short has these five psychological
- 0:16triggers that make them go viral today
- 0:19I'll show you how to implement these
- 0:20triggers in minutes even if you have
- 0:22zero editing skills by using an AI
- 0:25powered video editor but before I show
- 0:27you how let me guess you're probably
- 0:28waking up to your new short getting less
- 0:31than 100 views while these other shorts
- 0:33which you don't even think are that
- 0:34great get millions of views with submic
- 0:37the tool I'm going to show you today you
- 0:39can create the same highquality dopamine
- 0:41Loop shorts in just 60 seconds because
- 0:43submic is an AI power tool specifically
- 0:46designed to trigger these five
- 0:48psychological patterns that make short
- 0:50form content go viral it's not just
- 0:52another editing tool it's a psychology
- 0:54hack that automatically implements what
- 0:56top creators like Ali abdal Grant
- 0:58Cardone and David plins already used in
- 1:01their most successful shorts which they
- 1:03actually make with sell Magic as well
- 1:05and so let me show you how this works so
- 1:07first of all you want to go to submic
- 1:08I'll leave a link in the description
- 1:09down below and then once you sign up for
- 1:11your account you want to click on new
- 1:13video in here first of all you want to
- 1:15upload the clip that you want to edit
- 1:17then select the language which you can
- 1:19choose between all of the languages
- 1:21available and then you want to click
- 1:22upload so I'm just going to stick to
- 1:23English and click upload as of right now
- 1:25submic will automatically transcribe our
- 1:28video and we'll be able to add add
- 1:30captions which brings us to the first
- 1:32psychological trigger which is visual
- 1:34processing speed all viral shorts have
- 1:36this because our brains process visual
- 1:38information 60,000 times faster than
- 1:41text basically said when you add
- 1:43captions viewers are actively doing
- 1:46something which is reading and it makes
- 1:47it less easier for them to click away
- 1:50because they're bored now submic as you
- 1:52can see here on my video to care of this
- 1:54automatically and so step number two is
- 1:56choosing the caption style which is
- 1:58where you can implement the second
- 2:00psychological trigger which is pattern
- 2:02recognition now a lot of people don't
- 2:03even realize this but submic offers
- 2:06caption Styles modeled after top
- 2:08creators like Alex Orosi Ali abdal Iman
- 2:11godi gustag guy and many more there are
- 2:14tons of captions that you can choose
- 2:15from now you might wonder Yuri why does
- 2:17this even matter well our brains are
- 2:20hardwired to trust familiar in patterns
- 2:22and so seeing captions styled like
- 2:24trusted creators makes viewers
- 2:27subconsciously trust your content more
- 2:29now in order to customize these captions
- 2:31what you can do is click on edit right
- 2:33here and then you can basically adjust
- 2:35the caption size as well as the position
- 2:37to be anything you want so I like to
- 2:39position mine slightly lower than my
- 2:42face and slightly above the bottom of
- 2:44the screen which is a natural position
- 2:46to have your captions in just like on
- 2:48Netflix movies and any other TV content
- 2:51then you can also change the colors to
- 2:53match your brand style in case you do as
- 2:55well as enable the auto emojis feature
- 2:57for more engagement so the AI will find
- 2:59Find emojis that fit what you're talking
- 3:01about and add it into the text from here
- 3:04we can also save our custom style for
- 3:06future videos and so if I like what I
- 3:08currently made I can save this just like
- 3:10this by clicking right here and then I
- 3:12can use this in all of the future videos
- 3:14that I'm going to edit making this even
- 3:16faster the next time which brings us to
- 3:18The Next Step because even though submic
- 3:20automatically transcribes the audio
- 3:23sometimes there may be a few errors and
- 3:25so you can actually fix this by editing
- 3:27your captions so if you click on the
- 3:29captions tab right here you can actually
- 3:31fine change your text so first of all in
- 3:33case there's any transcription error you
- 3:35can fix this with just one click just
- 3:37like that and then typing in whatever it
- 3:39is that should be said in case that you
- 3:41need line breaks for better readability
- 3:43you can also do that within just one
- 3:45click just like this which will make it
- 3:47easier for your viewers to read along as
- 3:49well as you can insert any emojis
- 3:51yourself manually you can even add sound
- 3:53effects just like this one so for
- 3:54example right here I'm talking about
- 3:56money what I could do is search for a
- 3:58money sound effect like kaching I can
- 4:01apply that and here's what it sounds
- 4:02like now unlike what 99% of YouTube
- 4:05gurus tell you making money on YouTube
- 4:08is actually quite easy and here's the
- 4:10reason why this actually works when you
- 4:12add a sudden sound effect or Emoji you
- 4:15actually resetting the viewers attention
- 4:17clock their brain will think hey
- 4:19something new is happening giving you
- 4:21another 8 Seconds of attention I know
- 4:23sounds simple but it does work like that
- 4:25so now you've already got a very simple
- 4:27short edited with captions sound sound
- 4:29effects as well as emojis next up if you
- 4:32want to you can add b-roll and
- 4:33transitions which actually implements
- 4:36the four psychological trigger which is
- 4:38visual Varity in order to do this you
- 4:40want to click on the b-rolls tab on
- 4:42submic and then from here you can add
- 4:44any relevant b-roll footage from the
- 4:46stock library now you can also
- 4:48automatically apply this by clicking the
- 4:50button right here and they'll
- 4:51automatically find matching b-roll to
- 4:53what you're saying in your video however
- 4:55you can do this manually you can upload
- 4:57your own b-roll in case you wish to and
- 4:59this will then insert it nicely into
- 5:01your short and in case you want to
- 5:02polish it up even more you can even
- 5:04insert transitions like zoom inss and
- 5:06film burs to make it look even more
- 5:08premium now here's the science behind
- 5:10this when you show the same visual for
- 5:12too long the viewers' brain will stop
- 5:15processing it and so by changing the
- 5:17visuals every few seconds you force
- 5:19their brain to stay engaged and so for
- 5:21my short right here I'm just going to
- 5:22apply the automatic Boll feature as well
- 5:24as a couple transitions so I can show
- 5:26you the result later on in this video
- 5:28now then there's just one fin step left
- 5:30because you're almost done editing your
- 5:31complete video within just a few minutes
- 5:33which is where we implement the fifth
- 5:35psychological trigger which is emotional
- 5:37resonance so when I click on this as you
- 5:39can see it's going to insert a hook
- 5:41title at the beginning of our video
- 5:44which will drive curiosity about what's
- 5:46to come later in the video which will
- 5:47keep the viewer watching on top of that
- 5:49you can also get AI generated hashtags
- 5:52as well as descriptions for your post
- 5:54right here and then lastly what a good
- 5:56short needs is some background music and
- 5:58this is something that a lot of people
- 5:59don't even think about but music isn't
- 6:01just background noise it's a direct line
- 6:04to the emotional brain and so to write
- 6:06music triggers dopamine release making
- 6:08viewers hook to your content which is
- 6:10called audio design and if you've been
- 6:12paying attention my editor has been
- 6:14doing the exact same in the video that
- 6:16you're watching right now all right so
- 6:18once you've done all of that we're
- 6:19pretty much done the final step now is
- 6:21to click export in the top right corner
- 6:23right here and then your psychologically
- 6:25optimized short is ready for YouTube
- 6:27shorts Tik toks or Instagram reels so
- 6:29let me show you a quick before and after
- 6:32here's the before I have made millions
- 6:34of dollars on YouTube at the age of 23
- 6:36and then here's the after I have made
- 6:38millions of dollars on YouTube at the
- 6:40age of 23 and here's the truth unlike
- 6:43what 99% of YouTube gers tell you making
- 6:46money on YouTube is actually quite easy
- 6:49but it's a little easy for someone like
- 6:51me to say after I've spent 5 years of my
- 6:53life trying to figure out how to make a
- 6:55bunch of money on this platform the
- 6:58difference isn't just aesthetic it's
- 7:00psychological because the second version
- 7:02triggers all five psychological patterns
- 7:04that make content go viral which took
- 7:06less than 5 minutes to create which is
- 7:08truly insane now on top of all of this
- 7:10submic also release Magic Clips which
- 7:12allows you to turn any piece of long
- 7:14form content into shorts within just a
- 7:17few clicks once it has then generated
- 7:18the clips as you can see right here you
- 7:20can apply all these same tricks I have
- 7:22just shown you in this video to make
- 7:24another piece of short form content that
- 7:26will perform well and so if you're not
- 7:28using sub Magic yet here's in my opinion
- 7:30what you're losing because if you're
- 7:32doing this yourself it's either taking
- 7:34you hours of editing work yourself to
- 7:37get a short like this done or you're
- 7:39paying someone at least $20 per short
- 7:42like this to get it done for you and so
- 7:44both ways are not really great because
- 7:45if you compare that the submic
- 7:47professional plan which is just $39 a
- 7:49month you'll get 40 shorts like this
- 7:52which means that one short is literally
- 7:54less than a dollar per video in
- 7:56comparison to 20 or 25 plus for
- 7:58Outsource short and so if you look at
- 8:00this the real cost isn't just the money
- 8:02it's the opportunity it's the time it
- 8:04takes and just overall it's a much
- 8:06harder way to do it yourself and so if
- 8:08you want to start using submic to edit
- 8:10your short form content which is the
- 8:11best AI editor in the game I'll leave a
- 8:13link for you in the description down
- 8:14below where you can apply Creator 10 to
- 8:16get an extra 10% off on any plan that
- 8:19you choose and as always your next viral
- 8:22short is just one well added video away
