Google launches YouTube Video Builder, a free tool to help businesses create short ad videos.

Due to the ongoing coronavirus epidemic situation Google has come up with a lightweight ad creation tool – YouTube Video Builder for businesses. Google has announced the product currently for beta access.

YouTube Video Builder will help the businesses who don’t have resources to create videos from scratch. This tool allows businesses to animate their static assets including images and text with YouTube’s free audio library and can create short video clips that are of 6 or 15 seconds in length. Users will get many layouts, looking at different messages and goals, with font and color customizations to quickly generate a short YouTube video.

Google has announced this tool in a time when in-person shoots are no longer an option, and businesses of all sizes are strapped for time and resources.

Google planned to announce this tool over the summer, but the launch was accelerated in light of pandemic, when smaller businesses don’t have many production resources today.
