How to Add B-ROLL to Your Video in Descript the Easy Way
The easiest way to add B-Roll in Descript (extra video footage meant to enhance your main 'A-Roll' video) and music to your footage or composition in Descript. We look at how to import and use stock media, add it in Descript inside scenes but I'm providing my favorite way to add B-roll. We also look at adjusting the beginning and end of clips, using the Slip Tool to alter the span of the video/music clip to fit the selection. If you are working on a sales video or you start with a simple narration, this method is the quickest and easiest to fill your video with B-roll, stock footage, extra images, logos, etc. Chapters: 00:00 Introduction 01:05 Adding B-Roll the Easy Way 04:07 Adjusting the B-Roll Clip 05:15 Using the Slip Tool 10:31 Conclusion and Membership Join my Media Makers Club, a membership where you get: Access to the community to ask questions, interact with other editors Free access to all of my courses and mini courses (all of them!)
