How to Make Duet on TikTok?

First thing first, you will need a smartphone with the TikTok application installed for making duet content on TikTok. After that, you need to make an account on the platform by registering on it.

With that said, let’s get on with the steps to make a duet on TikTok.

Step One: Find Content to Duet With

To begin with, you need to find a content you can duet with. In case you are inclined to music, you can find songs for the duet and put your own melodies. If you like dancing, sharing a body with other dancers is also possible.

In case you want to make changes to the old videos you posted before, make a duet with your own content. If you need to voice out your opinion about a certain video, yes, you guessed it right! Make a duet for reviewing the video.

This duet idea is especially interesting if you are out of ideas and drawing a blank, wondering what video to create next. If you haven’t started making your own TikTok yet and you find it unnerving, why not start by duetting with some other TikTokers?

Get used to saving content you find interesting by giving it a heart, sharing it, or saving the video link in your note app. This way, you can go back to the video and record your duet whenever ready.

Step Two: Film your Duet

On the screen of the content you want to duet, you will see a ‘share’ button located at the right. Tap on it, and you will see the duet option along with other features, appearing as two joined circles.

In case this feature is not visible to you, this means that the duet option has been disallowed by the user. This is also possible as TikTok gives users the option to customize the share settings. So, if the user has disabled the duet function, the button will not be highlighted. That will be the tell-tale sign!

With that said, if you see the icon highlighted once you tap ‘share,’ this means you can use the feature. Now all you need to do is tap on the duet button. Two screens will appear alongside each other, one being the original content.

The next thing to do is simply press on the red record button, and there you have it – your first duet video!

In addition to that, you can adjust the speed, apply filters, use emoticons, stickers and even add texts if you wish to. Once you are satisfied with your content, you can share it on the platform.

Now when it comes to hashtags, you do not have to worry about adding them. Because even if you don’t, your video will garner the attention it deserves. You will get views accordingly, and there is always the possibility of your video appearing on the ‘For You’ page.

Trick to a Good Duet Video

Here’s a fact – you can start a conversation by making quality duet content. If you are able to make people talk to one another regarding your reaction video in the comment section, that’s a magical moment right there!

However, to achieve that, you need to find a video, add your own twist, and turn it into a little something extra and new. In case you are going for a reaction, you need to make sure to increase the efficacy of the original content.

For instance, let’s talk about the well-known chef, Gordon Ramsey. His style of videos involves screaming at the screen, watching people destroy his Wellington, or make a sandwich with bell pepper.

Now his videos are trending on TikTok as well as other platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, etc. These types of duet videos are amusing, and they surely keep us entertained. Certainly, these are what make an appealing TikTok duet!

Duet is an integral part of making videos in TikTok. Imagine it as a piece of music being remixed. A person can use someone else’s video and put their own content to it. This is the same as you building up a funny story and letting some other people finish it by delivering the gag-line.

For instance, say a person posts a video dancing and showing only their upper part of the body. Then another TikToker can use that particular content and correspond by adding video showing only their lower part, legs tap-dancing to the beat.

In Conclusion

So there you go! You can now bond with people online and be more creative on such platforms because the video content shared on TikTok is never-ending. Simply start by collaborating with your friends and let your duetting journey begin!
