What is a video collage?
A video collage is a fun way to display a collection of videos or images (or both!). Add some music to really bring it to life. Video collages let you portray lots of messages in a short space of time, perfect snack-able content for social media.
Why create a video collage?
Video collages allow you to show multiple video clips without needing to edit them together. They’re fun, engaging and visually interesting. They can also cut down on run time by conveying multiple messages in a short amount of time.
They’re perfect for creating mood boards, to share new ideas or top tips. To showcase a new collection or highlights from an event.
How to create a video collage

With VideoScribe for browser you can create videos automatically in the perfect dimensions for common social media platforms e.g for YouTube, Instagram or Facebook Stories.
In VideoScribe for desktop, the infinite canvas feature means that you have complete freedom with the size and layout of your video's canvas. But, you can still choose a template if you would rather start with a fixed layout.
4.Choose a background color or image
If you’re not using a template, then now’s the time to select your background, you can pick a block color or gradient. Or use an image, choose one from the image library or upload your own.
In VideoScribe for desktop you can even choose a texture as well as changing the color.
If you are using a template you can easily swap out any of the colors, text and images to make it your own.
5.Decide on your layout
It’s time to section up your canvas, do you want a uniform pattern or a more scattered look? The grid lines in VideoScribe can help you arrange your elements perfectly.
If you’re struggling for inspiration take a look at our templates.
