Video Compilation Maker

Bring together multiple video clips into a single compilation with Descript's video compilation maker. Use AI to find the best moments and merge them together with a text-based video compiler. It's the perfect solution for creating engaging social media content, memorable event recaps, and project portfolio videos.

How to create a video compilation

Step 1

Upload your video clips

Create a new project in Descript and drag all the video and audio files you want to compile into it. Descript will generate an automatic transcript where you can trim and rearrange your videos in the timeline by deleting or cutting and pasting the text.

Step 2

Highlight moments to compile

Use the Find good clips AI action to highlight the best moments in your video, or do it manually by selecting parts of the transcript and applying a highlight. When you're done, go to Actions > Copy highlights, create a new composition in your project, and then paste in your highlights.

Step 3

Finalize and share

Add the final touches to your compilation video, like text overlays, captions, transitions, background music, or adjusting audio levels and colors for consistency. Then go to Publish to either download your compilation video, export it a supported video platform like YouTube, or publish it as a web link you can share and embed anywhere.
