Which tools do you use to create Product Hunt launch video?

Question

I see a lot of awesome product videos people make for their product hunt launch. I wanted to make one but was told it would take a month and cost a couple thousand dollars. Are their cheaper tools that you can use to DIY it?

@keith_kadima_digital dude, this is not the place for promoting your launch :/

Patricia Fondevila · Answer

We use the Fiverr platform, where you can get excellent videos at good prices. They review the design until you are 100% satisfied.

@julia_zakharova2 You mean, hire a designer or is that the name of a tool?

Paul Richards · Answer

@julia_zakharova2 their prices are pretty fancy. $5,990/mo is a bit much for us right now.

@paul_richards1, for example, I didn't use templates, which can be tempting 😉. Instead, I focused on making my message, the text, dance 🕺.

P.S. Recall looks good. I'll give it a spin.

@julia_zakharova2 Ill have a look at Movavi - thanks.

Julia Zakharova · Answer

@paul_richards1 This is a set of tasks, not just one. There are also specialist video editors who do just this.

I personally make a simple video myself in Movavi.

@paul_richards1 Today we launched on product hunt and I did the simple launch text video with canva. Nothing fancy but I think it works fine. Probably the music also helps 😉

Herwig Kusatz · Answer

Hi Paul, you can use for example canva for a DIY 🎥

@paul_richards1 The learning curve for Premiere and After Effects can vary depending on your experience with video editing. Have you tried any other editing software before? I'm sure you'll pick it up quickly with some practice!

Hi Paul,

For creating Product Hunt launch videos, I exclusively use Loom. It's quick and easy to use, perfect for screen recordings and voiceovers. Here's why I recommend it:

Ease of Use: Simple setup and intuitive interface.
Speed: Create and share videos quickly without extensive editing.
Cost: Free with basic features, which are usually enough for most launch videos.
By focusing on clear, concise content, you can create effective launch videos without spending a lot of time or money.
