Part 1: How to Make a Split-Screen Video on TikTok

To begin with, you may need to note that the split effect in TikTok cannot really put two different videos into one. Instead, it just produces a duplicate for the original one. If you want to make a real video collage for TikTok, you can go directly to the second part of this post.

Steps to Make a Split-Screen Video on TikTok:

Step 1Open TikTok on your phone and tap the + button which is used to post a new video. By default, the app wants you to record a new video. Just tap the album icon and then select the video you want to use instead. Then tap the Next button in the bottom right corner to move on.

Step 2Now you should be on the video editing screen. Tap the Effects button and then choose Split. To apply the split effect to a segment of the video, you need to put the pointer to the place where you want the effect to come in.

Step 3Long press on a split style button. When you want the effect to stop, let go of the button. Then tap the Save button in the top right corner. This will send you to the preview screen. If everything is OK, tap the Next button to go on. The last thing is to post the video. If you are not ready to post it, just save it in Drafts.
