Before designing a short video character, you must make a full analysis and summary of the character’s strengths. What fields are you good at and what types are you suitable for? Make plans based on this, and it will be easier to achieve results.

2. In line with the platform’s tone

There is a saying when playing short videos: understand the platform and play with the traffic. The creation of short video characters needs to be based on the platform's tonality and user portraits. Take Douyin as an example. The slogan of Douyin short video is: record a beautiful life. The needs of users here are positive energy, positive and in line with public values. Then, you need to follow this basic principle when creating short video characters. Accounts that violate the platform's tone, vent negative energy, and touch the bottom line often do not develop for a long time.

The most important point in creating a short video personality is to "reduce weight". Because the short video platform has a powerful review mechanism, once content that is too similar to the content library appears, the platform will not recommend the work more. So, it’s still the same saying: “Things that are scarce are valuable.” The character must have its own uniqueness and highlights. This can be designed from the character's image and slogan.

Nowadays, there are many courses teaching everyone how to create a personal IP, which is a personal personality. In fact, personal IP is more about the content of the user perception layer. For example, the people we often meet include: a good wife, a good husband, an athlete, a lover of charity, a lifelong learner, etc. When an individual's personality has accumulated a certain amount of potential energy, it will have some attributes that the character does not originally have, which often contain the personal emotions and emotions of the target user.

Finally, Xiaoma Shitu Marketing Consultant believes that shaping a character’s IP through short videos also requires the support and cooperation of other media platforms, such as the character’s news reports, encyclopedia entries, and the Zhihu Tieba word-of-mouth platform’s influence on the character. Discussion and evaluation can confirm the character IP and help complete the shaping of the character IP.
