Freeze Frame

Pause a Video on One Frame.

Your file stays on your device. Nothing is uploaded.

The picture stops, a narrator says who this is and how they got here, and then the action continues. That's a freeze frame. It's also how you give viewers time to read something or notice a detail.

Type the moment to freeze and how long to hold it. The video gets longer by that amount. The sound goes quiet during the hold and picks up where it left off.

How to use the Freeze Frame tool

  1. Add your video.
  2. Enter the time to freeze at and the hold length.
  3. Freeze the frame and download the longer video.
