The first is by capturing a video on your smartphone. You can then use an app to share the video on Twitter. This app also allows you to customize the text that appears with the video. For iPhone users, holding down the video play button will generate a URL that you can paste into your Tweet. Android users will first need to find the video that they want to share. Once you have the URL, you can compose a Tweet and paste it in.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Embedding_a_YouTube_video\"><\/span>Embedding a YouTube video<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To embed a YouTube video on Twitter, follow these simple steps. First, you&#8217;ll need edit access to your video. This is necessary if you&#8217;d like to include a clickable link. Once you&#8217;ve got editing access, copy the URL from the address bar and paste it into your editor. Once you&#8217;ve pasted the URL, you can customize the video by setting the start point and stopping it at a specific place.<\/p>\n<p>Next, you&#8217;ll need a way to insert the YouTube video code. Usually, videos are measured in megabytes, and it&#8217;s better to embed smaller videos. To limit the height of your video, you can use a code snippet that is meant for HTML boxes. To embed a video on Twitter, you need to insert the code in the &#8217;embed&#8217; section of the HTML box.<\/p>\n<p>To embed a video on Twitter, follow these steps: open the video in your Twitter app and select the &#8220;share&#8221; icon. Once you&#8217;ve selected the &#8220;share&#8221; option, click on the &#8216;copy link to tweet&#8217; button. After you&#8217;ve pasted the URL into the box, you&#8217;ll see a preview of your video. You can also add some text to your tweet to describe the video.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Recording_a_video\"><\/span>Recording a video<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You can use your mobile phone&#8217;s camera to record a video to share on Twitter. The video can be edited to fit the character limit of Twitter. If you want to keep black bars to a minimum, you should use a high-resolution setting. Twitter also has recommended bitrate settings, so make sure to use those if you want to ensure quality. You can also export your video to Twitter using a video editing program.<\/p>\n<p>When you record a video to share on Twitter, you should keep in mind that nearly all of your viewers view the videos on their mobile devices. It&#8217;s therefore important to take this into consideration when producing your videos. It is best to make them as short as 15 seconds. Twitter videos can be up to 2 minutes and 20 seconds long, so you should use them accordingly. In addition to length, use video capture tools to capture the video&#8217;s frame, audio, and subtitles.<\/p>\n<p>After recording a video, you need to edit it before sharing it on Twitter. For example, if you want to post a video with captions, you can use your camera&#8217;s microphone. After recording a video, you can add audio and background music. When you&#8217;re done, you can click the &#8220;upload&#8221; button in the Twitter app. Once uploaded, your video will be accessible in your profile.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Changing_the_thumbnail_of_your_video\"><\/span>Changing the thumbnail of your video<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Changing the thumbnail of your video on Twitter is a fairly simple process. You can upload your own photo or choose from a frame from within your video. However, if you want to change the thumbnail of a video on Twitter, you should first click the Change Thumbnail button. This will allow you to adjust the thumbnail and pause the video at the appropriate frame. Once you have completed the editing process, click Save to save your changes.<\/p>\n<p>When choosing an image for your video thumbnail, keep the content simple. Avoid using an overly crowded image as it will confuse viewers. Also, use text in the thumbnail, but not too much. Make sure the text contrasts with the colors of the thumbnail. A dull thumbnail will only cause viewers to skip over your video. Make your thumbnails stand out from the crowd and draw their attention. Try to use a simple graphic that describes the topic of your video without taking away any of its context.<\/p>\n<p>Another way to change the thumbnail on your video is by adding a custom image. YouTube allows you to upload custom images. But make sure to match the aspect ratio of your video. A square video should have a square thumbnail, and a landscape video should have a 16:9 aspect ratio. You can also try using a different title and description to make sure your video gets more views. Don&#8217;t forget to choose the right image for your video &#8211; it can be difficult to get a great one without an attractive thumbnail.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/l6nC27m1woQ\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"501\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" height=\"280\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Share Videos on Twitter If you want to share your video on Twitter, you can do so through a few different methods.
