Why loop a video?
Looping videos make compelling web content, music videos, marketing videos, social media posts, and more. They help you add style to simple motions or add emphasis to instructional footage by showing them again and again.
How to loop a video in Premiere.
While there’s no loop-video button in Premiere, you can create a looping video in just a few minutes by editing to create a duplicated clip that plays over and over to appear as though the video is looped.
1. Add it:
Launch Premiere and click New Project in the Start screen. Then tap Add Media to upload your video. Premiere supports several types of video files, including MOV, M4V, and MP4.
2. Trim it.
Cut your clip down to just the section you’d like to loop.
3. Duplicate it:
Highlight your clip and press Ctrl+C (Windows) or Command+C (Mac) to copy it. Then press Ctrl+V or Command+V to paste a copy of it on the timeline. Repeat this as many times as you need to achieve the length of video that you want.
4. Transition it:
Click and drag to highlight every clip on the timeline, open the Effects panel to the right, and pull a Transition onto the timeline to smooth out the change between clips. Cross Dissolve is a great option for this.
5. Export it:
Export your project.

Why loop videos with Premiere?
You might be tempted to use a free online video looper to quickly loop a video file. But a more complete video editor is a better way to make a video loop that is professional in quality, doesn’t have a watermark, and can be exported in various aspect ratios for different platforms.
