Below we’ll walk you through a completely free method to create a polished split‑screen video using FlexClip, a powerful online editor that offers a wide range of templates and intuitive tools.
How to Make a Split‑Screen Video
FlexClip’s editor allows you to combine multiple videos and photos into a single frame without any restrictions. Click the "Create a Split‑Screen Video" button and follow the steps below.
Step 1. Upload Your Photos, Videos, and Music
Navigate to the Media section, select Local Files, and choose assets from your computer, phone, or cloud services. Once uploaded, you’ll see them ready for use in the editor.
Step 2. Create a Split‑Screen
Split‑screen videos typically feature two or more clips side by side or stacked. The process is similar regardless of layout.
Placing Two or More Videos on One Screen
Extend the background video’s duration by dragging the timeline slider, then click the Add as Layer icon. Drag the new clip’s corners to adjust its size and position, ensuring each element is visible and balanced.
Overlap One Video Over Another
First add the background clip by clicking Add as Scene. Then, overlay another clip by selecting Add as Layer. Adjust the overlay’s placement so important details remain clear.
Step 3. Polish Your Video
Use the editor’s basic tools—trim, filters, color adjustments, animations, speed control, and cropping—to make the footage cohesive. One‑click presets can apply a uniform look across all layers.
Enhance the visual appeal with built‑in widgets such as emojis, stickers, and text overlays.
Step 4. Manage Audio
When multiple clips play simultaneously, overlapping audio can become noisy. Mute individual clips by toggling the volume icon on the timeline. If desired, add background music from FlexClip’s library, which boasts over a million tracks.
Step 5. Share & Export
FlexClip offers several export options: download the finished video to your desktop, generate a short shareable link, post directly to social media, or save to cloud services like Google Drive or Dropbox.
