## Summary

This video presents a step-by-step method for creating faceless YouTube Shorts videos using facts found online and the free software InVideo.

- **Copyright does not protect facts** [01:14] — Facts are not copyrighted, so using facts from the internet is legally permissible for monetization.
- **Why YouTube Shorts** [01:43] — YouTube Shorts are currently growing fast, have a $100 million shorts fund, and can help you gain subscribers quickly.
- **Finding a niche** [02:10] — Accidentally discovered the health benefits niche while searching for benefits of foods; recommends being super niche-focused.

because they don't want to show their face or they can't come up with things to talk about so what if i told you that you could start a youtube channel without showing your face and you could literally use facts that are already on
the internet because they're facts and turn those into videos with a free software and make tens of thousands of dollars every single month well that's so if you're excited just make sure to smash that like button let's get into
the intro i'm gonna be showing you how we can use facts online and turn them into youtube videos without showing our face just with the simple free software and that software is in video but one thing i want to really touch on before
we get started is that in a video usually you're going to make wide videos couple people asking if you could use it for youtube shorts and in this video i'm going to show specifically how to make vertical videos and do this on youtube
shorts and at the end i'm going to go further and mention something else because this strategy is truly unlike anything else and it can turn into a huge brand because really not that many people or really at all are focusing on
pay attention because i'm going to show you how to do all of this step by step but before we get started i just want to say are facts copyrighted because i know saying oh you can't monetize this look copyright does not protect facts all
right it doesn't even protect ideas or any of that stuff okay so this is perfectly okay now why youtube shorts well like i said i got those questions youtube shorts is blowing up right now it's absolutely insane they're pushing
it there's like a hundred million dollar shorts fund and like i said at the end of this video i am gonna talk about a little more of an advanced strategy so definitely stay tuned for that however another reason why we're using youtube
shorts is because they're so viral right now they're getting a ton of views it can really help you start growing fast and making money fast okay but now the and making money fast okay but now the first step is actually finding a niche
and i actually found this one on accident because i've been kind on a health kick lately and i was like searching up the benefits of a food and i started seeing like wow these videos have a ton of views so for example if we
just go to like benefits of eating garlic right here you can see 1.5 million 5.4 million the thing is though although they're talking about health benefits of garlic their channel is much more broad than just that but in my
opinion it's better especially when you're starting out in my opinion to just be super niche focused and it's not like you would just be making videos about garlic right you could be like the benefits of eating avocado the benefits
of this the benefits of that and then once you have your niche you you really want to make sure you can figure out how to come up with video ideas and i know a lot of people think like oh you're going to run out of stuff to say and it's it's
really not true that's that's what i thought when i first started but even run out of foods to talk about but that's where you come into tools like morningfame okay so i personally use this for all my videos and not only does
it help me come up with video topics but it actually helps me rank and plan out all of my videos my tags and everything okay so i'll have an invite code to this in the description below it's not required but i do use it for every video
and it changed the game for me so if we type in benefits of eating you see they got garlic they got all this stuff so they got avocado right here right and then it you can see it shows you like your rankings for this keyword but also
it shows you all these other keywords right so rather than just doing benefits of eating avocado you could do like is avocado good for weight loss avocado benefits for weight loss why are avocados good for you benefits of
avocado for hair like you have so many different ideas that you could come up with you know what i mean and then you just click it choose it for step three likely you are to rank based on your channel subscribers views all that okay
so it's super dope and i'll show you one of mine really quick here we go so this is like once it's all finished i do my incomplete title so a keyword that's like the main keyword or your search term and then you have your whole title
and then i plan out my whole description in here it shows me how relevant i am after adding in certain tags and keywords and then i do my tags right here and then you do your pinned comment you can compare your thumbnails to other
thumbnails it's an insane tool like i said it changed the game for me and you can get a free invite code down in the description below but now once you have your keyword so benefits of eating avocado you could plan it a little more
but for this example we'll just say like three benefits of eating avocado that's gonna be our title for youtube okay so the next step after you have your title eating avocado into google and i already did this but that's what you would do
and then you open up a couple different websites okay so for like food stuff bestfoodfacts.org webmd wikipedia those are some great resources to find facts
about food right so webmd right here health benefits of avocados it's easy being green and then they explain what it is um better than a banana so they protects your eyes it helps you lose
heart good for your brain all these different things and with youtube shorts it's really easy to use these just basic facts and make an actual dope video with in video okay so we'll just take a couple of these and i'll write them down
ended up just taking three of the facts from the webmd page right here so healthy blood sugar was one of them and for youtube shorts sometimes it's better to just list them basic like without anything extra but if you wanted to and
i think you should try this on at least a couple you know what i mean try you could just use what they got here about the harvard study or whatever so it'd be like harvard study said this that that right so you
could do that as well but you got to remember you only have 60 seconds at most on youtube short so you got to make sure not to go over but for this example important to test out different things so like you should definitely try some
basic like this but also try one three benefits of eating bananas and then do list extra stuff super important to always be testing okay now the next step is obviously the most important step and that's creating your nvidia account okay
and like i said there's a completely free account that you can get started with in my opinion i would just start with a paid account because you are gonna wanna get it because you do not want a watermark this is your business
this is a legitimate thing you gotta treat it like that so having a watermark with a different company on your businesses videos very unprofessional that's all you can afford i personally have the unlimited business works just
the watermark and that's the most important thing okay so create your account and then once you're on the actual homepage of and video the main way i've always used it is text to video however with the
vertical videos if you click right there there's actually something really cool you can do that's a little different than everyone else is doing so check this out so all the way at the bottom here you can see there's listicles and
that's perfect for what we're doing right because it's literally look three even so like we're doing the three benefits of eating avocados so this is perfect and it's set up so sick so check this out so we're gonna click this one
and then we're gonna use this template just so you know this is like inside the advanced editor so it's a little different than if you did text to video the other way i just wanted to explain that but it's still super easy to do
okay so literally all it's it has is a couple things we need to change right so the text and then we just got to change this video on the background right so the first thing we're going to do is the
three benefits of eating avocados so we're going to copy that we're going to go back over here and then just paste that in there okay so the three benefits that in there okay so the three benefits of eating avocados okay so now the next
step is finding an image or a video so we'll go to videos and then you just enter and then you're just going to want to find one that would look good on to find one that would look good on vertical as well one thing you can do if
like pexels.com or pixabay and you can actually look at videos on here so if you wanted to you could go to avocado here and you can find ones that are vertical here so like right here
that's actually sick that that's actually so cool holy crap so i'll just use this as an example right so hit download right here just so you know you can actually use this and monetize it so we got our video
right here now we're gonna go back here and you're gonna hit upload videos and then you're gonna go to downloads right here and then just click that one we and it's now uploading all right so now that it's done we're just going to drag
this and you can just drop it to add as a layer you want to hit trim video to fit scene and then hit done okay so now what you want to do is you want to take it and you want to make it go bigger like that okay
so i'm gonna turn they always add audio like music on i'm gonna edit it and then turn the volume down so i don't i'm just gonna turn it to zero so i don't play gonna turn it to zero so i don't play that right now but if we hit play now
look at that that looks so sick okay and if you wanted it to be shorter or longer you can just drag it like that or you can hit edit right here to set the duration if you wanted to be 12 seconds for some
reason you could do it like that but yeah so that's how you do that and then if you wanted to change the transition so they have the slide left transition right now just watch this you see how it slides to the left
and look at all these transitions they have it's actually insane or if you transition okay but we're just gonna stick with that it's not a big deal like it looks good okay now for scene number two right here so number one this is
document and we're gonna take healthy blood sugar copy that and then double click paste all right it's that simple okay if you wanted to change this stuff by the way like you can change the font right they
have all these fonts you could change the text size the font size you could change you could literally animate the text add shadow you can do so much more than what i'm showing you then you're going to want to use a different image
or video again so let's go to video and we'll type in blood sugar and remember look good when you stretch it vertically okay so let's see here again you can go back to the other websites but let's do i don't really
want one that has blood on it just for youtube's sake so let's do like um let's do like this one okay so again you're gonna drop it as a layer you're gonna trim hit done okay and then you're
just gonna drag it to full size like this this like that and there you go okay and that looks good all right now you would just continue doing that for the whole part
i'm gonna just pause the video pause the recording and i'm gonna finish it just so you can see like a complete video and then i'll come back and show the last step of this which is very important or the last two steps actually all right so
i just finished this up and i shortened each of the scenes i'll probably shorten this one a little bit too actually because you don't want it too long plus there's really not a lot of text on each of these now this is what i think is the
most important part of the video and that's the audio especially when you're not showing your face and there's two ways you you should really do it you should either record the voice over or do the automated text-to-speech i don't
like the automated text-to-speech but it is better than not doing it at all you suggest that when you're just starting out okay so basically just go to where the text is on the screen and you're gonna go right here hit record voiceover
record obviously you need a microphone plugged in or you can like use your computer audio i guess if you have like a laptop but you can see that my mic is picking it up okay so if i hit pause it's gonna stop recording then now if i
hit play i'll say something like welcome back to our youtube channel this is the three benefits of eating avocados all right then we're gonna hit the stop button now you wanna just trim it to where i
started talking i don't know where it is is it right here welcome back to our youtube channel this is the three benefits of eating avocados yeah so then you trim it right there and hit add now you want to pull that to where you want
little bit longer now and then let's just see what it sounds like welcome back to our youtube channel this is the three benefits of eating avocado then we to make it fit and then you would just do that for each scene now if you
over and you went automated text-to-speech you can hit um let's just i think matthew is good hello hope you are having a great time making your video um that's not bad i guess there was another good one and i think was it
hello hello hope you are having a great time making your yeah amy's not bad we'll use amy and then we're gonna do uh we could do like benefit number one healthy blood sugar and then you'll hit generate
voiceover and then we can play it benefit number one healthy blood sugar it's not the worst okay but i don't like text-to-speech but you would hit add voice over okay and then if you wanted to you can here i'll zoom in for you but
starts right there okay and then put it for that okay so let's try playing it with the the thing benefit number one healthy blood sugar that's honestly it's not terrible
okay so you would want to do whichever one you're going to do and then this part is probably the most important to to most of you i know it was when i first started and that's making money okay so at the end of the
video i put want wanna lose weight click the link in the pinned comment so what that is is that's using an affiliate marketing product from clickbank okay so category so if you go to marketplace right here and you scroll down and you
go to health and fitness right here you can then rank it by gravity which means top selling and that's this flat belly product okay you can make up to 150 product okay you can make up to 150 plus you can get paid where is it 34
recurring income so basically you would promote it and then you would hit generate hop link here and you would take this long link you would copy that go to a website called bitly.com okay this is going to shorten your link so
you paste it here and hit shorten and you would take this link and then you're gonna pin it in your comments you're gonna also put it in your description but the thing with youtube shorts is people don't actually see your
there for the people that are actually watching on the computer and not their phone but that will help you make money on the front end with your shorts right so that's why i added that at the end and i wanted to explain that so that
makes sense and it's super important to have a call to action right do this at mean so now you want to hit download and i'll show you how to actually upload it oh actually make sure you turn the the audio back on for the music we'll go to
edit volume we'll turn it to like 10 and then you hit export alright the video is youtube channel this is the three benefits of eating avocados benefit number one healthy blood sugar [Music]
it's actually pretty sick like the videos and how it looks you know what i i forgot to change the last image or video but yeah so that's that right now like i said we have to actually upload it okay so we're gonna download this
okay now we got our video now we're going over to youtube and this is just my test account but basically we go right here to create and hit upload video and you would drag it right into there and then we would take our title
again and then go over here and paste it in there okay now you could say want to lose weight click here right and then you can take your link and then go over here paste it in there okay so that's our monetization method you also would
want to put that in the comment like i said and then you can hit those little three dots and then you can hit pin comment okay that'll pin it to the top of people do on tick tock on youtube shorts the first thing they're gonna do
gonna see your monetization method so it's a super super sick way of making even more money alright now like i said if you're using morningfame you can plan all of this in there but the most important part is just making sure you
have hashtag shorts in the title right there and you're pretty much done shorts are super fast and super easy to do you would go over here to visibility oh you'd want to make sure no it's not made for kids that would actually be set in
your settings if you set up the channel properly just so you know but uh you you would go right here you would hit public and then hit publish okay the really want to publish it because it's kind of just like half-assed but that's
basically what you would do okay so i hope that makes sense but like i said at the beginning there's a couple things i want to mention now okay number one you shorts using youtube shorts can really start boosting your channel and getting
you subscribers interested in what you're talking about but then what you have to do is you have to transition into doing some longer form videos which you can use on in video and do the same exact thing i just showed you so to make
this more simple what i'm going to do is i'm going to do a second video for my next video and i'll do the same niche okay but i'll show exactly how to do it in in video for the the widescreen video so if you're following along i'm
basically showing you how to set up an entire business step by step okay those videos are what are going to make you so much more money than youtube shorts however like i said youtube shorts can help you get subscribers a
little bit faster and capitalizing on a trend which is super important in business anyways right so the other thing what i anyways right so the other thing what i truly believe is so important is really
if you want to do something whether that's business lose weight whatever you have to find someone who has the information you want and learn from them okay that's what i did when i first started and i may be a little biased but
my no face youtube course it teaches everything in such a way where it's like short videos but it's also completely step by step and right now it's still in beta but it's two-thirds of the way done and you're getting a price that's way
cheaper than it will be once it's all the way done okay so if you want to get about starting a business on youtube youtube course is truly the best way to do it so you can just go to no facey.com
or click the link in the description down below but if you can't afford my screen right now and you can check out my free course that shows you how to do an entire youtube channel in a different niche step by step but that's all i got
niche step by step but that's all i got i'll see you on the next video
