3 Ways to Create a Music Video on Android or iPhone

1. Create a Lyric Music Video

PowerDirector makes it easy to create a lyric music video in minutes. With more than 50 motion graphics and hundreds of customizable preset templates, you're sure to find the perfect fit for your track.

To get started:

1. Start a project and add your music.
2. Upload videos, photos, or a logo as a background for the lyrics
3. Navigate to the title template option from the left-hand menu.
4. Browse through the title template options until you find a preset that you love.
5. Tap the template to add it to the app's intuitive editing timeline.
6. Type your lyrics in and fit text to the part of the song.
7. Use your fingers to pinch and zoom or drag the text to the best location.
8. Add another title template for the next set of lyrics. If your song repeats certain sections, like the chorus, you can duplicate and drag to speed up the creation process.
9. Lastly, add dynamic transitions to your text to amplify your song and catch your viewers' attention before sharing with your friends, family, and fans on social media.

2. Create a Live Performance Music Video

Every good video requires three basic steps: planning, filming, and editing. When it comes to a live performance music video, planning is crucial.

Taking the time to review shot lists and angles will make post-production much more manageable. After you arrive at the filming location, film a brief clip to check for good lighting, then ensure that your phone's camera has a central position and that your whole band fits into the frame before starting the shoot.

You'll likely want to film at least two takes of your performance to ensure that you have enough footage to work with when editing. Place your phone in different locations or use other band members' devices for multiple angles. When you finish shooting, add your videos to PowerDirector and organize them.

You can use the editing interface to cut and rearrange the footage. Add your favorite shots, splice them together, and add bold transitions and visual effects.

If you want to take your live performance over the top, use the app's professional-grade special effects and green screen tools for an out-of-this-world result.

Finally, take advantage of PowerDirector's audio syncing tools to line up your song with your performance. The app also comes fully loaded with powerful audio editing tools, allowing you to remove reverb, decrease audio noise, or create a dramatic audio drop to keep your viewers on the edges of their seats.

Before you get started, consider where you plan to film your video footage. Aim for a location that will provide a clean, easily edited background. After you've captured the footage, add it into the editing interface and navigate to the "FX" menu option to browse special effects like stop-motion, glitch effects, and animation.

Whether you want to feature a crowded city, a blissful forest, or an alien invasion, the PowerDirector music video maker has the tools you need to create a dynamic concept video without frustrating tutorials or years of experience.
