Keynotes → Shorts

# OpenClip for Public Speakers × YouTube

Every keynote you deliver is a goldmine of Shorts content. OpenClip finds your most powerful moments, tracks your presence on stage, and exports them Shorts-ready.

Public speakers can paste a YouTube link to their recorded talk and OpenClip will automatically extract 5–15 high-impact clip candidates — each one trimmed to a compelling hook-to-payoff arc and exported in 9:16 for YouTube Shorts.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### Can I import a YouTube video of my keynote directly?

Yes — paste your YouTube video URL into OpenClip and it will import the recording and begin processing it automatically without requiring a file download.

### How does speaker tracking work when I'm moving on stage?

OpenClip uses AI-based face detection that dynamically follows you across the frame, keeping you centered even as you walk or gesture on stage.

### How many Shorts can I get from a 45-minute keynote?

A 45-minute talk typically yields 6–12 clip candidates. OpenClip scores each one so you can prioritize the clips most likely to resonate as Shorts.

### What if my keynote was filmed with poor audio or background noise?

OpenClip processes the transcript for moment detection and syncs captions to speech. Word-level captions help viewers follow along even when audio quality is imperfect.

### Can I get clips in formats other than vertical for YouTube Shorts?

Yes. OpenClip also exports formats, so you can repurpose the same talk clips for LinkedIn, Twitter/X, or YouTube itself.

### Does OpenClip upload the Shorts to my YouTube channel automatically?

No — OpenClip exports the clips as files you download and upload manually. It does not publish directly to YouTube or any other platform.
