Speed up Video

Editing a video’s speed in Filmora for Mobile is quick and effortless. There are two ways to do it, with the first involving even speed adjustments for the entire clip. This method lets you create seamless, fast-paced scenes and stylish time-lapse videos.

On the other hand, you can also use Filmora’s Curve tool to add a dynamic speed effect, also known as speed ramping. This method is perfect for sports and action scenes, revealing landscapes in nature videos, showing the size of a particular area, creating exciting transitions, and other footage with dynamic motions.
