1. Avoid Copyright Issues

Well, if you decide to use portions of other YouTubers’ original videos and get them combined in your YouTube videos, it’s would be a wise decision to DM the YouTuber and ask permission. This will minimize the chance to get your YouTube channel flagged or struck by copyright rights issues.

2. Properly Use the Trimmer and Cutter

No one expects to use a YouTube video from the start to the end as you combine multiple YouTube videos. So, move the playhead in the video editor to spot the frames you need and trim unwanted clips or split a clip into different sections when ended.

3. Add Video Transitions

No two videos are the same colors and tones. So, to ensure different YouTube videos can play naturally and smoothly, adding a video transition between two clips is highly recommended. You may even add fade-in/out effect for the audio as well.

4. Video Qulaity and Aspect Ratio

It would look abrupt if a video with 1080P pixels and a 16:9 aspect ratio is combined with a 720P and 9:16 video. Just make sure all the YouTube videos are with the same video quality and aspect ratio.

Now, It's Your Move
