The way you explain things deserves to be seen.

A course or webinar contains explanations that can help people beyond the session. CortexCut suggests shorts that show your teaching style and give viewers a reason to learn more.

Presenting with clearer slides

In the source video

Look at this slide: the title just says ‘Results’.

Replace ‘Results’ with the conclusion you want to share. Your audience gets the message before even reading the chart.

The chart is still there to explain how you reached that conclusion.

Make the title say something

Replace ‘Results’ with the conclusion you want to share. Your audience gets the message before even reading the chart.
The passage to keep

Why this passage?

A recognizable mistake and an immediate fix. The ‘Results’ example makes the advice clear without watching the rest of the course.

In the source video

On my screen, the grey text looked perfectly readable.

Try your slide on another screen. If you have to squint to read it, increase the contrast before changing the text size.

And try again from the back of the room if you can.

Check the contrast

Try your slide on another screen. If you have to squint to read it, increase the contrast before changing the text size.
The passage to keep

Why this passage?

A simple test the learner can repeat. The passage keeps the checks in order instead of reducing the advice to ‘make the text bigger’.

In the source video

This diagram shows the four steps in the process.

Present one step at a time. Keep the same diagram and reveal the next part as you explain it.

At the end, you can show the complete diagram to recap.

One slide for each step

Present one step at a time. Keep the same diagram and reveal the next part as you explain it.
The passage to keep

Why this passage?

A specific teaching method, with an action and its purpose. The frame needs to keep the diagram visible for the demonstration to remain useful.

One video. Three ideas to explore.

The right passage depends on your audience and what you want to share. Here’s how one recording can offer several short ideas.

Intended audience
Professionals preparing their first presentation.
Editorial goal
Offer a tip they can use before their next presentation.

From your video to a short that sounds like you.

01

Your profile, prefilled from your links.

Using your public links, CortexCut prepares a profile covering your subject, learners and tone. Specify their level and what they need to understand: these details guide the suggested clips.

02

Passages selected for your audience.

The tool looks for a self-contained explanation, including its example and the context needed to understand it. You check that the passage doesn’t start halfway through a step and remains useful outside the course.

03

The finishing touches are yours.

Keep the demonstration clear. Adjust the vertical framing to show the relevant action or slide, correct technical terms in the captions, and leave enough time for the explanation.

Before you create your first shorts

Can a short really teach something?

Yes, when it answers a specific question. A mistake to fix, an explained step or a brief demonstration can be useful on its own. Topics that depend on several steps work better in the full course.

What if my video includes slides?

Review the passage in the editor and adjust the frame to keep the useful elements on screen. If a slide is unreadable on a phone, choose another passage or a framing that preserves its content.
