Make a before and after video

Show the change in one frame: the before clip on the left, the after clip on the right, both playing at once and labelled so nobody has to guess which is which. The editor opens set up for it in 4:5, the shape Instagram shows largest in the feed. Works for makeovers, renovations, repairs, fitness, cleaning or editing — photos as well as videos. Nothing is uploaded.

How it works

  1. 1

    Add the before and the after

    Drop the before clip or photo in the left cell and the after in the right, or add both at once and they fill in that order. Drag one onto the other to swap them.

  2. 2

    Line them up

    Zoom and drag each clip so the same subject sits in the same place in both halves, and trim them so the moments match.

  3. 3

    Adjust the labels

    The Before and After labels are text blocks: change the words, move them, or restyle them. Switch to a top-and-bottom layout or 9:16 if you prefer.

  4. 4

    Export

    Export an MP4 — or a GIF — in your browser, free, with no watermark and no account.

Common questions

Can I put the before above the after instead?
Yes. Pick a top-and-bottom layout in the Layout tab; your clips and labels stay, and you can move the labels to match.
Can I use photos?
Yes. Each side takes a photo or a video, so a still before shot can sit next to an after video.
Is anything uploaded?
No. Editing and export run entirely in your browser; your photos and videos never leave your device.
