How to Turn Zoom Recordings into LinkedIn Clips

To create LinkedIn-ready vertical clips from a Zoom recording, use Vidulk’s AI clipper to find the best moments, crop to vertical, and export with captions - all sized to LinkedIn’s specs.

Zoom Recording to LinkedIn Clips: Auto Vertical Clips

Step 1: Prepare Your Zoom Recording

Export your Zoom meeting, webinar, or interview as a video file. Use either cloud or local recording. Speaker view (16:9) is recommended, as it keeps the focus on the active speaker. Before sharing, ensure you have consent from all participants to use the video for social media.

Step 2: Upload to Vidulk's AI Clipper

  • Download the Vidulk app for iOS or Android.
  • Open the app and upload your Zoom video file.
  • The AI will automatically analyze the recording and select the most engaging moments suitable for short clips.

Step 3: Convert to Vertical, Captioned Clips for LinkedIn

  • Choose the vertical (9:16) or square (1:1) format - both accepted by LinkedIn.
  • Vidulk crops to the active speaker, optimizing for vertical format.
  • Set your desired clip length (LinkedIn allows up to 15 minutes, but short clips often perform best).
  • Vidulk generates auto-captions burned into the video, ensuring accessibility even before LinkedIn’s own auto-captioning is applied.

Step 4: Export and Upload to LinkedIn

  • Export your finished clip in 1080x1920 (vertical) or 1080x1080 (square) resolution - both within LinkedIn’s accepted range.
  • Transfer the exported MP4 to your computer or mobile device.
  • Upload to LinkedIn. During upload, you can also toggle LinkedIn’s auto-captions for additional accessibility.

Tips for Best Results

  • Keep clips concise and focused on a single idea or answer.
  • Review captions for accuracy before posting.
  • Always respect privacy and secure permissions from all speakers.
