video search

Finding footage online

Video search is the process of finding video content, typically through a search engine or platform that indexes video files.

Users enter keywords or phrases to locate relevant clips, movies, tutorials, or other footage: I did a quick video search for cake decorating tips.

Major platforms like YouTube and TikTok have dedicated video search functions, while general search engines offer video-specific tabs.
