Snapchat adds new features for creators, including an easier way to edit videos
As Snapchat continues to take on Instagram and TikTok, the company announced on Thursday that it's introducing a suite of new tools and features to make it easier for creators to create and share content on its platform. The social network is launching a 'Timeline Editor' feature, a new way to create videos from saved Memories, the ability to auto-save Stories to profiles, and more. Snapchat says the new Timeline Editor will give creators a more intuitive way to edit videos directly on the platform. The Timeline Editor lets you view your video in a chronological layout, so it's easy to trim, move, or rearrange clips. Once your sequence is set, you can add Lenses, add music from the Sounds library, and use other creative tools. The tool could get rid of the need for users to edit simple videos on third-party editing platforms, such as CapCut, before posting them on Snapchat. Creators will also get access to a new 'Create a Video' template that lets them select a few Memories, choose a song from Snapchat's Sounds library, and pick their favorite template to generate a custom compilation video. The feature is rolling out globally on iOS. Users will also soon be able to automatically save their public Stories directly to their profile to allow people to revisit the content. Snapchat says the feature enables creators to build a lasting collection of their best memories and keep their content alive. Of course, this feature sort of defeats the purpose of the ephemeral element behind Stories, but it could be useful for people who want to preserve their Stories. In addition, Snapchat is giving creators access to more insights into how their content is performing in order to allow them to better optimize their posts. Creators will be able to see the number of viewers who watched their public content for at least 12 days over the last month, giving them a better idea of how many returning viewers they have. They'll also be able to see which of their Spotlight posts and public Stories received the most views in the past 28 days, along with their total view time across all content. Plus, creators will get insight into their traffic sources, as they'll see views based on the source, which could include the Discover For You page, Following, Spotlight, Search, Chat, and Profile. Last, they'll see the average amount of time users spent watching their Spotlight posts, along with the average percent of their Spotlight posts that users finished watching.

New 'Spaceballs' film announced in epic video with Mel Brooks: Watch here
A new "Spaceballs" film is coming, with Mel Brooks slated to return in his iconic role as Yogurt, Amazon MGM Studios announced on Thursday. While details about the film's plot and cast are being kept under wraps, it is being described as "A Non-Prequel Non-Reboot Sequel Part Two but with Reboot Elements Franchise Expansion Film." Josh Greenbaum, known for directing "Will & Harper," "Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar," and more, is slated to direct. It opens with onscreen text in the iconic " Star Wars"-style crawl, which reads, "Thirty-eight years ago, there was only one 'Star Wars' trilogy. But since then, there have been… a prequel trilogy, a sequel trilogy, a sequel to the prequel, a prequel to the sequel, countless TV spinoffs, a movie spinoff of the TV spinoff, which is both a prequel and a sequel...." The crawl continues, noting the release of two "Dune" films, seven "Jurassic Park" films, multiple past and upcoming "Avatar" films, and more, adding, "But in 38 years, there has only ever been one… 'SPACEBALLS'… Until now…." Brooks, also the director of the original 1987 "Spaceballs" film, then appears onscreen, saying, "After 40 years, we asked, 'What do the fans want?' But instead, we're making this movie." The video cuts to an image of Lord Dark Helmet with text that reads, "The Schwartz Awakens in 2027." "May the Schwartz be with you," Brooks adds. The legendary filmmaker also took to X and shared the announcement in a post, writing, "I told you we'd be back." "Spaceballs" premiered nearly four decades ago. Set in a distant galaxy, the cult-classic space opera film, co-written by Brooks, parodies the "Star Wars" trilogy and other popular sci-fi franchises including "Star Trek," "2001: A Space Odyssey" and more. According to a synopsis for the film, it follows a star-pilot for hire and his sidekick, who must come to the rescue of a princess and save Planet Druidia from the clutches of the evil Spaceballs. Brooks starred in the film alongside John Candy, Rick Moranis, Joan Rivers, Daphne Zuniga and more. The new "Spaceballs" film will be produced by Imagine Entertainment's Brian Grazer and Jeb Brody, Josh Gad and Josh Greenbaum. Kevin Salter, Adam Merims, Benji Samit and Dan Hernandez will also executive produce. The new film will arrive in 2027.
