Option 1: Upload your own video.
This option starts with video you already have. From the For you or Video category on the home page, choose Start from your content.
Add a video from your device, click Create new, and choose a format. Unless you have something specific in mind, “original aspect ratio” is a good place to start.

Edit the video and add scenes
Once you’ve completed either of these options, you’re now in the Editor. Here is where you can easily edit your video or add additional videos as new scenes.
