Ranking and Split Screen Shorts

This Shorts path is two layouts. Ranking puts a top five on screen with a reason for the order. Split screen places narration beside gameplay, and the story must work if the viewer ignores the game. Captions stay readable. You approve before a paid plan schedules the Short to YouTube.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Pick the layout

    Ranking or split screen. Do not stack both and hope.

  2. Step 2

    Write the spoken point

    The layout does not supply the claim.

  3. Step 3

    Check the frame

    The rank number and the captions need empty space.

  4. Step 4

    Approve

    Rights for gameplay and footage are yours to confirm.

Ranking is a list with a criterion

Three or five items, a stated order, and a payoff. A longer list belongs in long-form.

Split screen is not the script

Gameplay is motion beside a story that already makes sense.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a full timeline editor?

No. It is Ranking and split screen for Shorts.

Can I use any gameplay?

Only footage you have the right to use. A layout is not a license.

Do these formats get more views?

No. They make a structure legible. YouTube decides distribution.

Where is the long list?

In the long-form generator, when each item needs a chapter.
