I Found The Most VIRAL Niche On TikTok! (Piano Visualisers)

Introduction

Creating viral content on platforms like TikTok and YouTube Shorts can be a lucrative endeavor. One niche that has been generating thousands of dollars in revenue is piano visualization videos. The best part? It's completely free to start! In this guide, we’ll walk you through the steps for creating engaging piano visualization videos using MIDI files and some free software.

Step 1: Find a MIDI File

To kick things off, you'll need a MIDI file for the song you want to visualize. There are several websites where you can find these, but we'll be using Online Sequencer for this tutorial.

1. Search for the song name you want to download, such as "Sweden" from Minecraft.
2. Select a version that is over a minute long.
3. Once chosen, click the download button to export the song as a MIDI file.

Step 2: Choose a Background Image

Next, select a suitable background image that reflects your song’s theme. For our Minecraft video, searching for a Minecraft-related image is ideal.

Step 3: Download Piano VFX Software

The next essential step is to download the software that will generate your piano visualization. We recommend using a program called Piano VFX. You can find it via a link provided in the description.

1. Visit the Piano VFX website and scroll down to click on "Download for Free."
2. Follow the prompts to download the zip file. Once downloaded, extract it to your desired folder.
3. Open the Piano VFX folder and double-click on the piano VFX.exe file.

The user interface may seem complex at first, but don’t worry—we’ll cover the key steps.

Step 4: Setting Up Your Project

1. Create a New Project: Select an empty project slot, name your project, and save it.
2. Import the MIDI File: Click the corresponding button to open the file explorer, where you can select your downloaded MIDI file.
3. Optional Audio: You can add audio that corresponds to the MIDI, but it's often simpler to do this in a separate video editor later.

Additional Features

You have options to:

• Add a real video recording of your playing.
• Set a background image.
• Record audio and MIDI directly.
• Control an LED panel on your keyboard.

Step 5: Customize Visuals

1. Edit: Click on the "Edit" submenu to preview the visualization. Here, you can pause, play, and scroll through the preview.
2. Effects: Click on the "Effects" submenu. Here, check the "Keyboard Saver" option, adjust color channels, brightness, and other parameters. Experiment with different effects until you find a look you love.
3. Save Your Project: Don’t forget to save your progress frequently.

Step 6: Rendering Your Video

Once you're satisfied with your configuration, it’s time to render your video:

1. Click on the "Renderer" to create an MP4 file.
2. Select the save location, choose your frames per second, resolution, and quality settings.
3. Finally, click on "Render."

After rendering, close the program by pressing the escape key and minimizing the window with the 'S' key.

Step 7: Edit with CapCut

1. Upload the rendered piano video into the CapCut timeline.
2. Add your chosen background image on top of the video while making sure the video length is between 1 to 2 minutes. If over, trim it down.
3. Stretch the image to last the entire video and lower its opacity to make the notes visible.
4. Adjust the aspect ratio to 916 for TikTok format.
5. Add the song title and author within the first 3 seconds of the video.
6. Enhance your video by adding transitions to the text.

Step 8: Upload to TikTok

Now, you have your final video ready! Simply upload it to TikTok, add a catchy description, and use related hashtags to increase visibility.
