FAQ
A commentary video is a video essay where the creator discusses, analyzes, or shares their opinion on a specific topic, event, or piece of media. These videos often involve research, scripting, and editing to present a cohesive argument or perspective. Commentary videos tend to provide in-depth analysis and are more structured compared to reaction videos.
Commentary videos involve discussing and analyzing a topic, while reaction videos focus on unscripted responses to content viewed in real time. VEED's video editor is perfect for creating both types of engaging content, allowing creators to appeal to a broader audience. Offering a variety of content types helps keep viewers engaged.
To make a commentary video, choose a topic, research it thoroughly, and write a script with a logical flow. Record your voice-over or on-camera presentation, and incorporate relevant visuals like brief video clips, images, or graphics to support your points. Edit the video to maintain a consistent pace and keep your audience engaged.
If you struggle with coming up with videos, try jotting down ideas from interesting conversations, social media posts, or books you come across. Keep a running list of potential ideas. You can also use our video idea generator to brainstorm concepts for your commentary videos.

I found VEED at the right time: if you're making UGC ads and not using Eye Contact Correction and Noise Reduction on VEED you're missing out on ROI.
