Exporting Your Video from KineMaster
The first step is exporting your edited video out of KineMaster. This renders your video file and saves it to your device’s storage.
To export your video:
- Open KineMaster and go to your project
- Tap the “Share” icon in the top left corner
- Select “Export” at the bottom
- Choose your export settings like resolution and bitrate
- Tap “Export” and wait for it to finish
KineMaster has many export setting options to balance video quality and file size. For YouTube, good settings are:
- Resolution: 1080p or 720p
- Bitrate: High (8-10 Mbps)
- Frame rate: 30fps
Higher resolutions and bitrates produce better quality but larger files. You can tweak these settings depending on your needs.
The exported video will be saved to your device’s Gallery app. Now it’s ready for uploading to YouTube!
Uploading to YouTube
With your rendered video file, uploading to YouTube only takes a few taps:
- Open the YouTube app and tap the capture icon to upload a new video
- Select your exported video from the file picker
- Add details like the title, description, tags, etc.
- Tap upload!
Once uploaded, the video will process for a few minutes before appearing on your YouTube channel, ready for viewers.
Here are some tips when uploading KineMaster videos to YouTube:
Optimize Video Metadata – Well-optimized titles, descriptions, tags, and thumbnails help YouTube understand your content and surface it to more viewers. Do keyword research and craft compelling metadata.
Enhance Audio – If needed, use the KineMaster audio tools to enhance and balance game audio before exporting. Clear audio is vital for YouTube.
Trim Length – Shorter videos often perform better on YouTube. Trim down your content to only the most engaging parts.
Add End Screens – End screens promote other videos and encourage viewers to subscribe. Easily add these in KineMaster before exporting.
Sharing Directly to YouTube
Rather than exporting first, you can also share videos directly to YouTube from within KineMaster:
- With your project open, tap “Share”
- Select “YouTube”
- Add video details like title and description
- Tap upload
This uploads your video instantly without needing to export it first. However, your video will still have the KineMaster watermark if using the free version.
The direct sharing method is great for quick uploads, while exporting first provides more flexibility with settings and removes the watermark.
Removing the KineMaster Watermark
When using KineMaster’s free version, your exported videos will have a persistent watermark. This can be distracting for viewers on YouTube.
You have two options to remove the watermark:
- Upgrade to KineMaster Premium – Paid monthly subscriptions completely remove the watermark and unlock additional professional tools.
- Strategically Cover Watermark – Carefully place images, text, and stickers in your video to cover over the watermark. Position them in the video’s “safe area” to not be cropped.
If you don’t want to pay for Premium, covering the watermark takes more effort but works well. Place visual elements intelligently to conceal it throughout the video.
Promoting Your YouTube Videos
With your video now exported, uploaded, and watermark-free, leverage YouTube tools to maximize viewership:
- Optimized Thumbnails – Create custom thumbnails that make viewers click. Experiment with text, color, and imagery.
- Cards and End Screens – Guide viewers to more of your content with clickable elements at the end of videos.
- Playlists – Organize your videos into playlists around topics, series, or formats. Make playlists prominent on your channel.
- Community Tab – Post images, polls, and text to engage your subscribers. Alert them about newly uploaded videos.
- External Promotion – Share your videos on social media, forums, blogs, and other platforms to drive more traffic to them.
By combining KineMaster’s powerful editing tools with YouTube’s immense reach and discovery features, you can build a highly successful channel with a strong audience.
