Make a product that does the opposite. Turn editorial videos into blog posts. Now, that would be a hit.

We use Lumen5 as a major part of our marketing toolbag, from exclusive videos for individual clients to fun social media plugs. Not only that the but the site is incredibly open to responses and criticisms, making changes and taking comments to heart. Can't recommend enough!
Michael Cheng
@uhproduction Criticisms—we absolutely love criticisms! We practice fearless feedback and radical candor as part of our work culture, and we definitely acknowledge that meaningful growth is never supposed to be comfortable! Keep the feedback coming, don't ever stop! It's the only way we get better :) Thank you so much for your support!

Lumen5 is my go-to tool to easily create video content to better engage my audiences. It's beyond simple to create engaging videos from curated content in literally minutes. Love it.

@michnavarro So happy to hear that Lumen5 has helped you with your work! A few years ago,, we saw some crazy stats around "80% of internet traffic is video content" and "videos get 1200% more reach than text/images", so we thought to ourselves... if the future is video, how are people going to make videos? That's how it all began! The goal was always to help our users make awesome videos in minutes, and it's fantastic to hear that we're accomplishing this goal!

Fab program, easy to use, I've been using this since 2017 with no issues at all. Thank you Lumen5 :)
Michael Cheng
@jill_d1 It's great that you haven't had any issues at all! There has definitely been issues, but whenever they arise, we tend to work frantically to resolve them before it affects any of our users. Sounds like we've done a good job at that if you've had no issues since 2017!

@new_user_19065c0dc9 They say that for a product to be successful, "you don't need everyone to like it—just need some people to love it!" Thank you so much for being our biggest fan! :)

Huge fan of Lumen5 and they way the platform has evolved over the past couple years has been great to watch and get value from.
Michael Cheng
@koka_sexton It's been a crazy journey! Thank you for sticking with us through both the good times and the bad :) There were major technical challenges we had to overcome to get the product to where it is now... so thank you so much for not giving up on us when Lumen5 used to take hours to render videos back in the day! We promise to keep working hard and make it even better :)

It's been great to work with Lumen5 for the last year, and watch the tool evolve. Feedback is incorporated on a regular basis, and it's been great to see advances with edit tools, highlighting, speed, positioning of text. A tremendous range of images and music to help craft fast,eye-catching social videos. (I *do* miss the icons that used to be available as a visual kicker!) Once you get past linking to content, it's easy to start thinking about using it for original ideas and a certain type of storytelling.
Michael Cheng
@dgchichester The icons will make a return, I promise! It was an experiment for an idea that wasn't executed quite the way we wanted. When they return, icons will be colorful and animated :) We felt the icons we had were too static and they also created the need for an entirely new infrastructure that was holding us back from moving the product forward, so we had to make the difficult decision of phasing it out, for now. We totally see that the blog-to-video feature is a bridge to help our users get started with video, but the real potential kicks in when you break free from re-purposing old content and start creating new original video content from the ground up! We've been working hard at shaping Lumen5 to better support the beauty of original storytelling :)
