Make money on TikTok by posting movie clips (Easy Mode ✅)

Introduction

Are you looking to make money on TikTok by sharing movie clips? With the right approach, you can potentially go viral and monetize your content while avoiding copyright issues. In this article, we're going to explore practical methods for creating engaging movie recap clips and how to effectively post them on TikTok.

Introduction

TikTok is a platform that thrives on short, engaging videos, and movie recaps are a niche that is still ripe for exploration. By following the steps outlined in this guide, you can create your own movie clips and share them in a way that attracts viewers while staying within the bounds of copyright law.

Finding Movie Clips

To begin, you need to select a movie that you'd like to create a recap for. There are two main methods to obtain movie clips:

Method 1: Download Full Movies

This method involves downloading the full movie to your device. Using editing software, you can cut out the most interesting scenes to create short, captivating recaps. For detailed instructions on this technique, check out the previous tutorial I created.

Method 2: Use a Chinese App

The second, simpler method is to download clips directly from an app. For example, you can use the app "Xiao Hong Shu" (recently renamed "Rednote") to find movie recaps that have been pre-edited. Follow these steps:

  1. Download the App: Search for "Xiao Hong Shu" (Rednote) in your Google Play Store or App Store.
  2. Create an Account: Log in using your Google account; signup through phone number may require a Chinese number.
  3. Search for Movie Recaps: Use Google Translate to input “movie recap” in Chinese, copy it, and paste it into the app's search.
  4. Download Clips: When you find a video you like, copy the link and save it. Use a PC website to download the video without a watermark.

Transcribing Audio

After downloading the video, the next step is converting any Chinese audio into English. You can use tools like Dupdub for transcription:

  1. Upload the Video: Paste the video link into Dupdub and select "transcribe."
  2. Translate the Script: Copy the transcript to translate it from Chinese to English using the same tool.

Editing the Video

Now that you have both the video clip and the voice-over, it’s time to edit. CapCut is an easy, free software to accomplish this:

  1. Set Up Aspect Ratio: Change the aspect ratio to 9:16 for TikTok.
  2. Import Media: Add the video and voice-over tracks.
  3. Remove Original Audio: Extract and delete the video's original audio to put your new voice-over in place.
  4. Add Captions and Watermark: Generate captions for better viewer engagement and add your TikTok page name as a watermark.

Uploading to TikTok

After editing, it's time to upload your video to TikTok:

  1. Open TikTok Studio: Click on "Upload" to start.
  2. Run Copyright Check: Always click on "run a copyright check" before posting to ensure compliance.

Conclusion

With these steps, you can establish a thriving TikTok channel dedicated to movie clips. The potential to go viral and earn money is at your fingertips!
