  1. 0:00when editing short form content the
  2. 0:01difference between a short that gets 100
  3. 0:03views and one that gets a million views
  4. 0:05isn't just luck it's psychology and the
  5. 0:07way you edit your video I've analyzed
  6. 0:09over 1,000 viral shorts across social
  7. 0:12media and realized that every single
  8. 0:14viral short has these five psychological
  9. 0:16triggers that make them go viral today
  10. 0:19I'll show you how to implement these
  11. 0:20triggers in minutes even if you have
  12. 0:22zero editing skills by using an AI
  13. 0:25powered video editor but before I show
  14. 0:27you how let me guess you're probably
  15. 0:28waking up to your new short getting less
  16. 0:31than 100 views while these other shorts
  17. 0:33which you don't even think are that
  18. 0:34great get millions of views with submic
  19. 0:37the tool I'm going to show you today you
  20. 0:39can create the same highquality dopamine
  21. 0:41Loop shorts in just 60 seconds because
  22. 0:43submic is an AI power tool specifically
  23. 0:46designed to trigger these five
  24. 0:48psychological patterns that make short
  25. 0:50form content go viral it's not just
  26. 0:52another editing tool it's a psychology
  27. 0:54hack that automatically implements what
  28. 0:56top creators like Ali abdal Grant
  29. 0:58Cardone and David plins already used in
  30. 1:01their most successful shorts which they
  31. 1:03actually make with sell Magic as well
  32. 1:05and so let me show you how this works so
  33. 1:07first of all you want to go to submic
  34. 1:08I'll leave a link in the description
  35. 1:09down below and then once you sign up for
  36. 1:11your account you want to click on new
  37. 1:13video in here first of all you want to
  38. 1:15upload the clip that you want to edit
  39. 1:17then select the language which you can
  40. 1:19choose between all of the languages
  41. 1:21available and then you want to click
  42. 1:22upload so I'm just going to stick to
  43. 1:23English and click upload as of right now
  44. 1:25submic will automatically transcribe our
  45. 1:28video and we'll be able to add add
  46. 1:30captions which brings us to the first
  47. 1:32psychological trigger which is visual
  48. 1:34processing speed all viral shorts have
  49. 1:36this because our brains process visual
  50. 1:38information 60,000 times faster than
  51. 1:41text basically said when you add
  52. 1:43captions viewers are actively doing
  53. 1:46something which is reading and it makes
  54. 1:47it less easier for them to click away
  55. 1:50because they're bored now submic as you
  56. 1:52can see here on my video to care of this
  57. 1:54automatically and so step number two is
  58. 1:56choosing the caption style which is
  59. 1:58where you can implement the second
  60. 2:00psychological trigger which is pattern
  61. 2:02recognition now a lot of people don't
  62. 2:03even realize this but submic offers
  63. 2:06caption Styles modeled after top
  64. 2:08creators like Alex Orosi Ali abdal Iman
  65. 2:11godi gustag guy and many more there are
  66. 2:14tons of captions that you can choose
  67. 2:15from now you might wonder Yuri why does
  68. 2:17this even matter well our brains are
  69. 2:20hardwired to trust familiar in patterns
  70. 2:22and so seeing captions styled like
  71. 2:24trusted creators makes viewers
  72. 2:27subconsciously trust your content more
  73. 2:29now in order to customize these captions
  74. 2:31what you can do is click on edit right
  75. 2:33here and then you can basically adjust
  76. 2:35the caption size as well as the position
  77. 2:37to be anything you want so I like to
  78. 2:39position mine slightly lower than my
  79. 2:42face and slightly above the bottom of
  80. 2:44the screen which is a natural position
  81. 2:46to have your captions in just like on
  82. 2:48Netflix movies and any other TV content
  83. 2:51then you can also change the colors to
  84. 2:53match your brand style in case you do as
  85. 2:55well as enable the auto emojis feature
  86. 2:57for more engagement so the AI will find
  87. 2:59Find emojis that fit what you're talking
  88. 3:01about and add it into the text from here
  89. 3:04we can also save our custom style for
  90. 3:06future videos and so if I like what I
  91. 3:08currently made I can save this just like
  92. 3:10this by clicking right here and then I
  93. 3:12can use this in all of the future videos
  94. 3:14that I'm going to edit making this even
  95. 3:16faster the next time which brings us to
  96. 3:18The Next Step because even though submic
  97. 3:20automatically transcribes the audio
  98. 3:23sometimes there may be a few errors and
  99. 3:25so you can actually fix this by editing
  100. 3:27your captions so if you click on the
  101. 3:29captions tab right here you can actually
  102. 3:31fine change your text so first of all in
  103. 3:33case there's any transcription error you
  104. 3:35can fix this with just one click just
  105. 3:37like that and then typing in whatever it
  106. 3:39is that should be said in case that you
  107. 3:41need line breaks for better readability
  108. 3:43you can also do that within just one
  109. 3:45click just like this which will make it
  110. 3:47easier for your viewers to read along as
  111. 3:49well as you can insert any emojis
  112. 3:51yourself manually you can even add sound
  113. 3:53effects just like this one so for
  114. 3:54example right here I'm talking about
  115. 3:56money what I could do is search for a
  116. 3:58money sound effect like kaching I can
  117. 4:01apply that and here's what it sounds
  118. 4:02like now unlike what 99% of YouTube
  119. 4:05gurus tell you making money on YouTube
  120. 4:08is actually quite easy and here's the
  121. 4:10reason why this actually works when you
  122. 4:12add a sudden sound effect or Emoji you
  123. 4:15actually resetting the viewers attention
  124. 4:17clock their brain will think hey
  125. 4:19something new is happening giving you
  126. 4:21another 8 Seconds of attention I know
  127. 4:23sounds simple but it does work like that
  128. 4:25so now you've already got a very simple
  129. 4:27short edited with captions sound sound
  130. 4:29effects as well as emojis next up if you
  131. 4:32want to you can add b-roll and
  132. 4:33transitions which actually implements
  133. 4:36the four psychological trigger which is
  134. 4:38visual Varity in order to do this you
  135. 4:40want to click on the b-rolls tab on
  136. 4:42submic and then from here you can add
  137. 4:44any relevant b-roll footage from the
  138. 4:46stock library now you can also
  139. 4:48automatically apply this by clicking the
  140. 4:50button right here and they'll
  141. 4:51automatically find matching b-roll to
  142. 4:53what you're saying in your video however
  143. 4:55you can do this manually you can upload
  144. 4:57your own b-roll in case you wish to and
  145. 4:59this will then insert it nicely into
  146. 5:01your short and in case you want to
  147. 5:02polish it up even more you can even
  148. 5:04insert transitions like zoom inss and
  149. 5:06film burs to make it look even more
  150. 5:08premium now here's the science behind
  151. 5:10this when you show the same visual for
  152. 5:12too long the viewers' brain will stop
  153. 5:15processing it and so by changing the
  154. 5:17visuals every few seconds you force
  155. 5:19their brain to stay engaged and so for
  156. 5:21my short right here I'm just going to
  157. 5:22apply the automatic Boll feature as well
  158. 5:24as a couple transitions so I can show
  159. 5:26you the result later on in this video
  160. 5:28now then there's just one fin step left
  161. 5:30because you're almost done editing your
  162. 5:31complete video within just a few minutes
  163. 5:33which is where we implement the fifth
  164. 5:35psychological trigger which is emotional
  165. 5:37resonance so when I click on this as you
  166. 5:39can see it's going to insert a hook
  167. 5:41title at the beginning of our video
  168. 5:44which will drive curiosity about what's
  169. 5:46to come later in the video which will
  170. 5:47keep the viewer watching on top of that
  171. 5:49you can also get AI generated hashtags
  172. 5:52as well as descriptions for your post
  173. 5:54right here and then lastly what a good
  174. 5:56short needs is some background music and
  175. 5:58this is something that a lot of people
  176. 5:59don't even think about but music isn't
  177. 6:01just background noise it's a direct line
  178. 6:04to the emotional brain and so to write
  179. 6:06music triggers dopamine release making
  180. 6:08viewers hook to your content which is
  181. 6:10called audio design and if you've been
  182. 6:12paying attention my editor has been
  183. 6:14doing the exact same in the video that
  184. 6:16you're watching right now all right so
  185. 6:18once you've done all of that we're
  186. 6:19pretty much done the final step now is
  187. 6:21to click export in the top right corner
  188. 6:23right here and then your psychologically
  189. 6:25optimized short is ready for YouTube
  190. 6:27shorts Tik toks or Instagram reels so
  191. 6:29let me show you a quick before and after
  192. 6:32here's the before I have made millions
  193. 6:34of dollars on YouTube at the age of 23
  194. 6:36and then here's the after I have made
  195. 6:38millions of dollars on YouTube at the
  196. 6:40age of 23 and here's the truth unlike
  197. 6:43what 99% of YouTube gers tell you making
  198. 6:46money on YouTube is actually quite easy
  199. 6:49but it's a little easy for someone like
  200. 6:51me to say after I've spent 5 years of my
  201. 6:53life trying to figure out how to make a
  202. 6:55bunch of money on this platform the
  203. 6:58difference isn't just aesthetic it's
  204. 7:00psychological because the second version
  205. 7:02triggers all five psychological patterns
  206. 7:04that make content go viral which took
  207. 7:06less than 5 minutes to create which is
  208. 7:08truly insane now on top of all of this
  209. 7:10submic also release Magic Clips which
  210. 7:12allows you to turn any piece of long
  211. 7:14form content into shorts within just a
  212. 7:17few clicks once it has then generated
  213. 7:18the clips as you can see right here you
  214. 7:20can apply all these same tricks I have
  215. 7:22just shown you in this video to make
  216. 7:24another piece of short form content that
  217. 7:26will perform well and so if you're not
  218. 7:28using sub Magic yet here's in my opinion
  219. 7:30what you're losing because if you're
  220. 7:32doing this yourself it's either taking
  221. 7:34you hours of editing work yourself to
  222. 7:37get a short like this done or you're
  223. 7:39paying someone at least $20 per short
  224. 7:42like this to get it done for you and so
  225. 7:44both ways are not really great because
  226. 7:45if you compare that the submic
  227. 7:47professional plan which is just $39 a
  228. 7:49month you'll get 40 shorts like this
  229. 7:52which means that one short is literally
  230. 7:54less than a dollar per video in
  231. 7:56comparison to 20 or 25 plus for
  232. 7:58Outsource short and so if you look at
  233. 8:00this the real cost isn't just the money
  234. 8:02it's the opportunity it's the time it
  235. 8:04takes and just overall it's a much
  236. 8:06harder way to do it yourself and so if
  237. 8:08you want to start using submic to edit
  238. 8:10your short form content which is the
  239. 8:11best AI editor in the game I'll leave a
  240. 8:13link for you in the description down
  241. 8:14below where you can apply Creator 10 to
  242. 8:16get an extra 10% off on any plan that
  243. 8:19you choose and as always your next viral
  244. 8:22short is just one well added video away
