Sermon clips for church media teams

Last updated: 10 November 2026

A sermon usually has a handful of moments that carry the whole message: a story, a clear point, a line people repeat. Church media teams often have the recording but not the hours to cut it. snipo finds those moments and adds captions, so the clips work with the sound off.

Steps

1. Export the service recording or just the sermon as a video file.
2. Upload it and choose 60 or 90 second clips.
3. Use "Follow speaker" framing so the speaker stays centred as the video turns vertical.
4. Read the captions for names and scripture references, and fix anything misheard.
5. Pick a calm caption style such as Clean, add a short title, then download or schedule to YouTube.

Tips

• Trim the recording to the sermon before uploading if the service is longer than your plan allows.
• One strong clip posted regularly usually does more than many weak ones; use the scores to choose.

Limits to know

• Music and worship sections without speech will not become clips.
• Only upload recordings you have the right to share, including any music in them.
• Free: videos up to 20 minutes, up to 5 clips per video, 30 clips a month, 720p with a small watermark. Pro (£7.99 a month · ~$9.99 USD): up to 60 minutes, 10 clips per video, unlimited clips, 1080p, no watermark. Premium (£18.99 a month · ~$24.99 USD): up to 2 hours and 20 clips per video.

Questions

Can I clip a full service recording?

Yes, within your plan's length limit: 20 minutes on Free, 60 on Pro, 2 hours on Premium. Trimming to the sermon first gives better clips.
