You can create a project using your own uploaded files (video, audio, images), the in-built stock libraries with audio, video, images, GIF files, stickers, emojis, and shapes, or you can create your own video, audio, or screen recording.
Media
If you upload up to 10 files that can be played in your browser (for example, .mp4, .mp3, .png, .jpeg), these files will be added to the timeline automatically. Otherwise, you will need to add your video, audio, or image from Media to your project timeline manually.
To add an uploaded file to the timeline manually, in the navigation sidebar, click Media, and then do one of the following:
- In the Media section, click the media thumbnail.
- From the Media section, click and drag the media file to the timeline or canvas.
Stock libraries
Clideo includes the following in-built stock libraries:
- Audio
- Videos
- Images
- Elements (shapes, stickers, emojis, GIFs)
To add a file from in-built stock libraries to the project timeline, in the navigation sidebar, click Audio, Videos, Images, or Elements and then do one of the following:

- From the Audio, Videos, Images, or Elements section, click and drag the media file to the timeline or canvas.
All media files added to the timeline from stock libraries are automatically added to Media.
