How do I make a video loop seamlessly?

Short-form platforms (TikTok, Reels, Shorts) already replay videos automatically — so 'making a video loop' really means editing the ending to flow seamlessly back into the beginning. Cut the video so the final shot visually or verbally connects to the opening frame: the last sentence completes a thought the first line started, or the closing action resets to the opening position.

For a literal repeated loop in one file, duplicate the clip on the timeline as many times as needed and export — in EseCut that's copy-paste on the timeline. Seamless loops quietly boost watch percentage on short-form, since replays count toward it.
