Shorts that teach, explain and keep people watching

Shorts that do well usually teach something fast. SparkRoll has templates made for that:

  • Mentor: a gold serif hook, numbered points, and the picture pulls back to make room.
  • Masterclass Cutaways: a graphic cut-away every few seconds: diagrams, steps, a calendar, a spotlight.
  • Step Slam: each step slams in full screen on a black grid.
  • Key Facts: a big number and the facts, one by one.
  • Explainer and Label Listicle for lists and how-tos.

What SparkRoll does to your Short

How to make a Short with SparkRoll

  1. Add your clip. MP4 or MOV, up to 10 minutes. Drop in several clips and they become one video.
  2. Pick a template (or keep Clean up), and add a signature effect if you want one.
  3. Say or type the edit. Hold to talk, or type it, in any language: “cut the pauses, add captions, make the hook bigger”.
  4. Fine-tune by hand if you like: tap any caption or sticker to move, resize, rotate, edit or remove it.
  5. Export a vertical 9:16 video for TikTok, Instagram Reels or YouTube Shorts.
