FOR EVENTS AND SPEAKERS

Turn conference talks into shorts.

A talk is recorded from the back of the room, the speaker walks, the slides change, and the recording sits on a drive until someone has time. shortshort gives you the clips the next morning: reframed on the face on screen as the speaker moves, slides kept readable, every word captioned.

shortshort for conference talks: the short answer

Turn keynote and session recordings into vertical shorts: the crop follows the face on screen across the stage, slides stay whole and every word is captioned.

Example with shortshort: a 41-minute keynote becomes 8 shorts of about 35 seconds, for 41 credits, from the Creator plan.

Why it fits conference talks

Four things the studio does to a 41-minute keynote, two of them shown as they happen.

01

The crop walks with the speaker

Stage recordings are wide. Face tracking moves the 9:16 frame as the speaker crosses the stage, and the vertical crop keeps about a third of the width of a 16:9 picture, which is what brings a distant speaker closer. Zooms are automatic, between x1.0 and x1.6.

02

One talk, one credit per minute, however many clips

A 41-minute talk costs 41 credits for 3 clips or for 10. An event with twenty sessions of that length comes to about 820 credits, inside one month of the Studio plan at 79 EUR.

03

Sponsors and speakers get their own clip

Ask for 8 to 10 clips and hand each speaker their best moment. A clip carries the speaker, the slide and the words, so it works without the rest of the talk.

04

Clips land in the community with the talk

Publish the shorts and the full recording sits next to them on one page, with the transcript of each clip. People who find a clip can watch the whole session.

How it works for conference talks

Five steps. About two minutes of your time; the processing itself runs on our servers and depends on the length of the video.

  1. 01Drop the session recording, up to 2 GB
  2. 02Ask for 8 to 10 clips of 30 to 40 seconds
  3. 03The transcript is read for complete, quotable passages
  4. 04The frame follows the face on screen across the stage, slides stay full
  5. 05Download every clip as MP4, or publish the series with the full talk

Suggested captions: Spotlight. A keynote is delivered with rhythm. Spotlight follows that rhythm word by word without covering the stage.

Questions people ask

How do I turn a conference talk into short clips?

Upload the session recording, up to 2 GB in MP4, MOV or WebM, then choose how many clips you want and a target length between 15 and 90 seconds. The AI transcribes the talk and keeps complete, quotable passages; the 9:16 crop follows the face on screen with automatic zooms, slides stay whole and every word is captioned. A talk costs one credit per minute of recording, whatever the number of clips, and a new account starts with 30 free credits. Each short is an MP4 you can upload to LinkedIn as a native video, in 9:16 at 1080 x 1920 or 4:5 at 1080 x 1350, and the 9:16 file also goes to YouTube Shorts, TikTok and Reels.

The camera is far from the stage. Will the crop still find the speaker?

Tracking works on the recording as delivered, and the 9:16 crop is placed on the face it finds. In 9:16, the zoom on a tracked face stays at x1.0 or x1.04 for each shot, with gentle push-ins up to about x1.11 on emphasized words, and x1.6 is reached only on a passage that is not tracked. In 4:5, the shot zoom brings a small face to about 20% of the frame height, at most x1.4, and push-ins top out near x1.5, under the x1.6 ceiling of every format. If the source is very wide or low resolution, the speaker may stay small: a face too small in the picture is not tracked, and there is no manual override.

Can we process a whole day of sessions?

Each session is one upload of up to 2 GB. With an account, generation runs on our servers on every plan, so you can queue sessions one after another and come back to the results.

Does the speaker need an account?

No. The person who uploads the recording gets the clips. Download each MP4 and share the files, or publish them and share the community links.

What about slides with small text?

Slides are detected and kept as a full image rather than cropped, so the text stays as readable as in the recording.

Can I post these clips on LinkedIn?

Yes. Download the MP4 and upload it from your LinkedIn profile or company page; shortshort does not post to LinkedIn for you.
