How to Turn Webinars into Snapchat Spotlight Clips

To turn a recorded webinar into Snapchat Spotlight clips, you need to extract key moments, resize to 9:16 vertical, and add captions. Vidulk's AI clipper streamlines this process for mobile creators.

Webinar to Snapchat Spotlight Clips: How to Create Vertical

1. Understand Snapchat Spotlight Video Requirements

  • Length: Up to 5 minutes per video
  • Aspect Ratio: 9:16 vertical required
  • Resolution: 1080x1920 pixels is widely used
  • Captions: No SRT upload; captions must be burned-in or added in-app

Ensure your clips follow these specs to maximize visibility and avoid upload issues.

2. Identify the Best Webinar Moments to Clip

  • Look for the sharpest tip, a standout demo, or a memorable Q&A answer
  • Focus on concise, self-contained moments that make sense out of context
  • Crop the view to show both slides and the speaker for a dynamic vertical split

Effective clips are short, engaging, and visually clear, even on mobile screens.

3. Use Vidulk to Automate Clipping, Sizing, and Captioning

  • Upload or paste your webinar video into Vidulk (iOS or Android)
  • The AI automatically finds highlight moments based on clarity and engagement
  • Clips are exported in vertical (9:16) format, sized for Snapchat Spotlight
  • Captions are auto-generated and burned into the video, meeting Snap’s requirements

Vidulk removes manual editing steps, letting you quickly generate multiple Spotlight-ready clips.

4. Final Steps: Review and Upload to Snapchat Spotlight

  • Review each clip to ensure the message is clear and captions are accurate
  • Export and transfer to your device if needed
  • Upload to Snapchat Spotlight via the app, using in-app Creative Tools for any final tweaks

This workflow lets you consistently repurpose webinar content for new audiences on Snapchat.
