JAKARTA - Previously, YouTube had launched remix tools such as Collab and fun effect for Shorts. Now, YouTube is increasing its ability to remix music videos on Shorts.

Based on its official announcement on the YouTube blog, the company said that this new capability will provide more ways for users to connect with their favorite artists and songs on YouTube.

To remix your favorite artist music video on Shorts, you can do it directly from the video on YouTube, then tap "Remix" to select one of the four options for remix: audio, green screen, cut, and collab.

If you select audio, you can just take audio from the video, and make it a Shorts soundtrack.

If you choose a collab, you can make Shorts videos right next to the original video, so that you and your friends can do choreography side by side with the artist.

For green screen, you can use the artist's video as your Shorts video background. This may be your real-time reaction video when you first listen to it.

Meanwhile, if you choose a cut, you can cut the clip 5 seconds long and add it directly to your Shorts video.

What makes this unique? On YouTube, you can watch music videos over and over again, see other Shorts videos made from the same song by fellow fans, and find deep catalog cuts from your favorite artist and revive the moment by remixing it to your own, "the announcement concluded.
