01
Import your video and project files
Open a fresh project in Descript, then drag and drop the clips you want to use for a loop video. You can also check Media for uploaded files or search our library of stock clips and images for your loop. To loop a video, confirm it’s not on the script track (right-click the layer and select Remove from script).
02
Select a media layer to loop
Click the media layer you want to repeat, and in the properties panel under Duration change Once to Loop. You can also tweak speed or extend the final length. By default, looped layers span the entire video. If desired, add a '/' in your script to form a Scene and limit the loop video section to that portion.
03
Edit or export your looped video
Drag the edges of the original clip to trim your video and create smooth start and end points. Keep editing using the looped layer, or export your loop as a video or GIF by clicking Publish.
