Upload existing videos
How to upload a video from your computer to Tella
Tella’s upload feature allows you to import pre-recorded videos from your computer and integrate them into your Tella projects. This is especially useful if you have existing content that you’d like to merge with the videos you’re creating within Tella. In this guide, we’ll explain how to use the upload feature and highlight key considerations, such as file format compatibility.
Why use the upload feature?
The Upload feature enables you to enhance your videos by combining existing video content with newly recorded clips. This is particularly helpful if you’ve created content in other software or have videos stored on your device that you want to incorporate into your Tella workflow. You can import these clips directly into Tella and edit them alongside your new recordings, making the process seamless and flexible.
How to upload a video in Tella
There are two main ways to upload videos to Tella:
1. From your account overview:
Log into your Tella account and navigate to your Account Overview.
Click the Upload button, which will open a new screen.
From here, click Select File to open your computer’s file picker and choose the video you want to upload.
Once the file is selected, it will be uploaded into Tella, ready for editing or integrating into your projects.
2. While editing a video:
If you’re already in the process of editing a video, click on Add Clip from the editor.
In the clip options, instead of recording a new clip, select the Upload option.
This will bring up the same file selection screen where you can choose an existing video from your computer to upload.
This flexibility makes it easy to upload videos at any stage of your project, whether you’re starting from scratch or adding content to an ongoing edit.
Limitations
The current limitation with this feature is that we only allow videos up to 5GB to be uploaded. Videos larger will need to be compressed first.
