2 QuickTime - Mac

You may have heard of QuickTime, Apple's default movie player for Macs, but did you know it also doubles up as a video editor too?

However, as most Apple products are, it is only compatible with Mac computers – support for Windows was halted since 2016. Sorry non-Mac users – skip ahead to the next tutorial.

Now back to QuickTime as a video editor. Like any basic video editing software, it allows you to do basic trimming, rotating, splitting and more. But we do not even need to get into that for a simple loop video.

QuickTime

Here is how you can easily create a loop video using QuickTime in a few simple steps:

  • Step 1: Open up the clip that you would like to loop in QuickTime Player.

  • Step 2: Select the View button in the top menu bar.

  • Step 3: There should be a drop-down menu, scroll all the way to the bottom and simply select the Loop option and voila, your video is now on an infinite loop.

It is ridiculously simple – if you already have the software or a Mac. If not, the cost is incredibly prohibitive. However if you are looking to do more with the QuickTime on video-editing works, here's a word of caution – as an Apple only software, the player and hence editor supports only limited formats of audio and video compared to other video editors out in the market.

Price Plan:  QuickTime player is pre-installed on all Macs and Macbooks. So, it is technically free if you already have any of the above. If not, it would at the cost of a Mac or Macbook – and that is not cheap at all. There are plenty of other options if you are a Windows user.

Here is how you can easily create a loop video using Kapwing in a few simple steps:

  • Step 1: Head over to Kapwing's online video looper.

  • Step 2: Simply upload the clip or paste a link to a video of your choice.

  • Step 3: A simple interface will prompt you on how many times you want to loop the clip from 2X up to 10X.

  • Step 4: Optional: Need to trim the video? There's an option to do that just before you create the loop video.

  • Step 5: When you are ready, just click create and there you have it – your loop video (although you will need to sign in to remove the watermark).

As an online editing platform, it is very convenient to make edits on the go! However, like most "free-ium" softwares, there are catches. You need to upgrade your workspace to edit larger files of up to 1GB (free users only get up to 250MB limit), publish videos up to 40 minutes long, make content private, use custom fonts etc. If you do not need any of those, we think it's a pretty good deal for simple & basic edits.

Price Plan:  To upgrade your workspace costs $20 per month – For the price, we think it does not give as much value as other more complex video editing softwares.

Some Useful Tips When Creating A Loop Video

  • For a seamless transition, make sure the first frame and last frame matches as closely as possible. You do not want it to look disjointed.

  • For website banner loops, consider keeping them short (around 30 seconds). You want viewers to look at your other content instead of watching the video. And try to keep them under 1MB in size for easier loading.

  • Skip the audio if possible – Usually loop videos are viewed in conferences, conventions, and reception rooms where it can get quite noisy. Try to rely more on the visuals and subtitles to convey the message instead of audio. Also, it can get quite repetitive to the viewer.

  • Just for fun: Try creating a looping video of yourself for a Zoom meeting and test your video editing skills to see if anyone notices!
