Have you ever dreamed of creating an entire month’s worth of short-form content—without showing your face, without special skills, and without spending countless hours editing?
What if I told you that with the right tool, you can create 30 YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, or TikToks in just one hour? Yes, you read that right—one video per minute, enough to post daily for an entire month. And the best part? You don’t even need to be on camera.
In this step-by-step guide, I’ll show you how to use AI to create faceless short videos that can go viral, drive massive engagement, and even generate income.
Why Short-Form Videos Are a Game Changer
Short videos are dominating social media platforms like YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok. Creators are leveraging this trend to:
- Grow subscribers and followers faster
- Increase watch time and engagement
- Monetize content through multiple income streams
- Repurpose content across platforms
I’ve personally seen how a single YouTube Short on a faceless channel with only 900 subscribers exploded to over 1 million views and brought in 494 new subscribers. Another video on a channel where I show my face reached 56,000+ views and added 740+ new subscribers.
These same videos were shared on TikTok and Instagram and performed just as well—without additional editing.
Step 1: Use the Right AI Tool – Introducing Submagic + Magic Clips
Creating short videos used to take me an hour per video. I’d spend time:
- Watching long videos
- Manually identifying key moments
- Clipping and trimming footage
- Adding subtitles and effects by hand
- Uploading to platforms one by one
Sound familiar?
But not anymore.
With Submagic and its revolutionary feature Magic Clips, I now produce 30+ short videos in an hour—without breaking a sweat.

With Submagic, you’re not just editing videos—you’re building a viral content system.
Step 2: Smart Content Creation – Upload or Copy-Paste a YouTube URL
Getting started is easy.
- Create a Submagic account (link in description)
- Upload your own long video or paste a YouTube video URL
- Let the AI extract viral-worthy short clips
Even if you don’t have your own content, you can legally use Creative Commons-licensed YouTube videos (more on this later).
Once uploaded, Submagic auto-generates several short clips from your video. Customize each one with:
- 🔧 Zoom effects
- 🎨 Brand colors and filters
- 💬 Captions and animations
Click “Create Clip,” and you’re ready to post across YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, or TikTok.
Step 3: Go Deeper With Magic Clips – Custom Edits from Text
Magic Clips lets you go beyond auto-clipping by giving you full control:
- See the entire video transcript
- Highlight specific sections or keywords
- Build a short video using just text—no timeline scrubbing needed
- Clean up audio with one click
Want to create highly personalized videos in minutes? This is the way to do it.
You can even search for keywords directly in the transcript to find the best hooks, quotes, or moments for your shorts.
Bonus: Use Creative Commons Content Legally
Don’t have original content? No problem. Here’s how to repurpose existing videos legally using Creative Commons on YouTube:
- Go to YouTube and search a topic (e.g., motivation, politics, business)
- Click Filter > Creative Commons
- Pick a trending video
- Check the description to confirm it’s under a Creative Commons Attribution License
- Copy the URL and paste it into Submagic
- Credit the original creator in your description
Done!
Now you’re turning someone else’s long-form video into a brand new short-form masterpiece—legally.
Step 4: Monetize Your Short Videos
Creating viral content is one thing—earning from it is another. Here are three proven ways to monetize short-form videos:
1. YouTube Shorts Partner Program

With time, as your audience grows, these income streams can compound significantly.
