A "duet" on TikTok is a feature that lets users create split-screen videos using an existing video. It's commonly used for collaborative performances, like singing or dancing together, and has become popular for engaging with challenges and trends.
This feature helps TikTokers connect, showcase their talents, and build community on the platform.
How to create a duet?
To make a duet, select the video you want to pair with and tap the "Share" button. Choose the "Duet" option to open a split-screen with the original video on one side and your video on the other. You can then lip-sync, sing, dance, or add commentary to create your unique content.
Tiktok Duet vs Stitch
A Stitch and a Duet differ primarily in format. With a Stitch, the original video plays first, followed by the new content, while Duets display both videos side-by-side at the same time.
Stitches typically enhance or respond to the original video’s topic or prompt, encouraging discussion.
On the other hand, Duets highlight complementary content, often featuring dance routines, reactions, or trends using the original sound.
