I will show you how to download, install, and sign in to CPCAT desktop. We are going to use the desktop version of CAPCd for the first part of the course. If you have never signed in to CPCAT before, you didn't use it online, then by writing cct com, you will come to this page. If you have ever used it before and signed in or anything, then you will come to the edit page. This is the online editing page of CCAT. To be able to download, what you should do is just go to sign out from here. And come back to cp cd.com. You can download for Windows or Mac, depending on your operating system. And if you click on download, the first thing it does is to download an installer, and you can go to your download and just open it. The downloader, of course, for windows is a bit different, but it's the same, you have the downloader, you double click on it, and it will start downloading. Now, the download might take some time because it's around 1 gigabyte, depending on your Internet connection. The installer has completed, and actually PCT will open. Now, I already have a version on my PC, so obviously, it picked all what I've been working on. To sign in, you come over here. I'm going to sign out to show you. Now I'm signed out. I can sign in again, and it will ask whatever you want to sign in with. There is no e mail or password. You can sign in with TikTok account. If you have any or Facebook, I will sign in with Google. From here, I will choose an account, and I will click and Continue. The sign in has been successful. I can close now the browser, and I'm ready to work with my signed in account. Why you need to sign in? When you sign in, you will get some other options that you can use within CAPCAT. This is the home screen of CAPCAT. Remember that. We will continue in the next video with the interface. 3. Exploring the Capcut Interface: A Comprehensive Beginners Guide: Hi there. In this video, we are going to have a look and I will explain to you how to work with the CPCAT interface. Within the home, you have a new project and you have auto reframe and create image. I'm sure they're going to put some more. I will go for new project for now, and this is actually the interface of CP cut. It's very easy to use. You have four parts only. The left one, this is about adding. The middle one, this is the player, it's about previewing. The right one, this is contextual. It means it will change, and it's all about adjusting and enhancing. Down here, you have the timeline. This is where you're going to stack your videos one after the other to have a complete video later on. On the left side where you have the ad, you notice you can add media, you can add audio, you can add text, stickers, effects, transitions, filters, and adjustment. But better yet, when you select the media, for example, you have other options on the left column here. For example, if you select library, this is a library of videos where you have many options for all the videos you can just use if you want to. That is beside your own videos. For example, if you come to scenery, you will notice you have so many videos, infinite number of videos that you can use in your projects. If you come to Audio, you will notice that you have more options here, for example, the music, you can go to Vg, tail, beats, whatever you like. Text, the same, you have more options on the left. In the middle here, this is the preview, like we said, This is media, and I'm in library, some videos, I want to use, for example, I can click on them. It's downloading now, and I can preview the video. If I want to use the video in my timeline, all I have to do is to click on the plus here, and it will add it wherever the playhead, this is the playhead is as simple as this. The left side is about adding. The right side now, it depends on what you have selected. So if I select nothing, this is the project now. I have information about the project. If I click on a video in the timeline, now I have certain adjustment and enhancement that I can do to the video, such as the video, the basic here, the speed, the animation, and the adjustment. If you select video, you have more tabs here that you can use. But the concept is about enhancing or modifying changing for whatever is selected. If I go to audio here, and I go to music, this is the music here, and I say, I need a pop music. I want to listen to this one. If I want to add it to the timeline, I just click Plus, and it'll add it on the playhead. This is the Playhead here. You can click and drag and drop it here. It's important for us is when you select the audio, you will notice that the right side here has changed, is relevant only to the audio. So you have the basic and you have many options that you can change. You have the voice changers, you have the speed. Now, if you take, for example, text, if I add just the default text, just like this, I'll click and drag and drop it here. Now I have a text layer. You will notice now I have text, I have tracking, I have text to speech. Each one of them also has more options down there. It's very well organized. You know very well whatever you select, you can change and modify on the right side. If I select anything from this side, this is not going to appear here. You cannot adjust or modify anything in the left side. You have to put it in the timeline, and then select it in the timeline, and this is a video, you can change whatever you like. The concept is very easy. One window for adding or one panel for adding, one for previewing in the middle, one for enhancement and adjustment, and the timeline where you are going to assemble your video as simple as this. Thank you very much. You notice this is very easy, and I will see you in the next video. 4. Mastering CapCut Shortcuts: Customize Your Workflow Efficiently: Hi there. In this video, we are going to deal a bit with the shortcuts for those of you who love shortcuts. Now, in CAPCuT, you have the shortcut for the shortcut just over here. You click on it and it opens a documentation about all the shortcuts. You have timeline shortcuts, player, basic and others such as sptions, and so on. Within any tab, you can change any shortcut you want. For example, I will select the grouping here, I want to change it from command G to G simple G. If there is a G, it will have given me an alert. For example, let's go for, and you notice here shortcut conflict. I'm going to cancel, it goes back to G. Over here, I want to change it for example to shift G. So you can change any shortcut according to what you want. I already said that. There is something even better. You notice here you have selection mode is A, split mode is B. This is like DaVinci resolve, not all of them, but some of them. But if you come over to shortcut one and you select shortcut two, you will notice it's V and C. This is like Premier Pro. I'm not saying all the shortcuts are premier pro, but it's like Premier Pro. You can clearly see select mode is V, premier. Split mode is C, also premier. Now, you can change any shortcut you want, here we have changed it, and you can save. Now I'm working on shortcut one, but I made some changes with the group and group. If I want to return to shortcut one default, I just restore default, and here you have control G and control shift G. By the way, the scroll here means the scroll mouse. If you are in the mac, it's going to go up and down left and right. If you are on windows, of course, you're not going to see this, you're going to see command and shift and control for the windows here, not as it is in the mac. This is about shortcut. Come over. Check the shortcuts that you like. Within the course, I might or might not use the shortcuts depending on what I'm showing you and what I'm demonstrating. I'm going to cancel here, and we go on to the next video. 5. Navigating the Capcut Timeline: Adding Clips and Managing Views: Let's add some clips to the timeline on the left and right and zoom in and zoom out and zoom to fit. Now, if I take the playhead, for example, to bring it to the left of this clip. Because the playhead is on the left of this clip towards the end point. If I add a clip, it will come on the left of the clip, where the playhead was. If now I add another clip, notice how it's going to add to the left of this clip. Here you are. If I come over to the end here towards the right, and add another clip, it will add to the right of this clip. If I add one more clip, notice it's going to add it to the right of the clip where the playhead is and not at the end of the timeline. This is how to add clips on the left or right of a certain clip. Now my timeline has become very long. I can scroll through using my mouse. I'm using a M here. I'm going left or right. Also, I can select the playhead, click on it, and click and drag, and I can preview my timeline somehow, but this is not convenient. I can also zoom in using the Zoom out over here and the zoom in over here. Zoom out will zoom out until it's very small and Zoom in will zoom in on the clip. Notice it's always zooming in towards the playhead. Here you are. Now I can see a frame at the time. But now I want to see all the clips in my timeline. I can use the Zoom to fit. The shortcut Shift Z. I usually never use the shortcut. I just click here and I am Zoom to fit. Zoom to fit means show me all my clips. If my timeline is very long, of course, the clips are going to be very small. You can also use command or Control plus to zoom in completely or command and control minus on the main keyboard or the numeric keyboard to zoom out the way you would like. Less zoom to fit. We have seen how to add the clips to the timeline on the right or left of a clip and how to zoom in and zoom out. 6. Mastering Capcut Timeline Tools: Magnet, Snapping, and Linkage: Hi there, in this lecture, I will show you how to work with the magnet for the main track. There is a switch here. It says turn off main track magnet. The main track is this track here where you have the copy. All other tracks are not main track simple. If the magnet is off and I delete a clip. You will notice that the clip has been deleted, but now I have a space. It's called a black space or a gap, if you like. To delete this gap, in Caput, it is not possible. What you can do is to click and drag your clips that are on the right to the left. That is not convenient at all. Now, let's put the magnet on for the main track and select this clip and delete. You will notice that it has deleted the clip and everything on the right ripple to the left. Let me do it for this clip, and when I deleted, you will notice that all the clips on the right will be rippled or brought forward to the left. Here you are. You notice that's very convenient. It's much better than having a gap, and then having to drag all the clips to the left. I will undo. Now, let's imagine this clip here. I want to insert it in between these two clips. If my magnet is off and I click and drag and try to drop it on top, notice the green line here, just on top of the main truck, this means I cannot insert this clip in this truck. If I release, it will go on top. This is when the magnet is off. Not what I want. What I want is to put the magnet on and click on the clip and drag a drag drag it and notice what's happened when I bring it in. It's just showing me with the darker gray, this is where the clip is going to be. And I release it. I have done a lift and insert. I inserted this clip in between two clips, and that is very convenient. You can do it all the time and you rearrange your clips. Let's do a bit more. If I come over here, that is to the left at the beginning, I put the magnet off and try to insert a clip. I'm going to insert this clip. Notice that the clip has been inserted where the playhead is on the track above. It did not inserted on the main track. This is not what I want. I will undo, put my magnet on and insert the same clip. Notice where my playhead is. It is towards the left. It's going to come to the left of the clip, and it pushed everything, including the lower tracks to the right, so it has done a ripple. Magnet is very important, and you should always keep it on mainly when you delete clips. Now I'm going to show you something a bit advanced, but you will get it. Let's take this clip over here. You notice when you come towards the outpoint. The outpoint is the last frame of the clip. You can click and trim the clip. My magnet is on, and everything is rippling, which is fantastic here. I'm just seeing what is the last frame, and I'm okay with that. Then I can trim it from the point, the first frame, click and drag, and notice nothing is being dragged yet, but when I release, everything will drag to the left, and it has done a ripple. Going to undo this too, and I will show you without the magnet, what happens. If without the magnet, I can trim, I have a blank space. I can trim again, I have a blank space. Of course, if this happens to you, you can select all these clips here and just drag them. Also there are other tools that you can use, select forward, select rightward, to rearrange your timeline. I'm going to undo this. From now on, we are going to put the magnet on. L et's go to the turn on and off snapping. The snapping notice how the playhead is going to snap. You notice it's snapping. It's very important. Otherwise, if it is not snapping, I actually cannot get to the impound or the first frame. And I'm missing something, I'm missing the first frame here, and it's going to make a lot of problems because you will have a frame or two if you cut that are not very good at all. This is the snapping and the playhead will snap. But also, the snapping goes like this. You notice the green line, the vertical green line that is appearing. This is a snapping green line, I'm going to insert it here, for example. The snapping will help you a lot to snap clips when you're moving them or to snap the playhead. Now, there is here one very nice one is turn off linkage. This has to do with audio. I'm going to take a clip that has audio. It is this one. You can see the audio line just over here. Well, we want to see the audio like this song here. I'll right click, and I know it's a piecemeal here, but nevertheless, I need to give you the example. I'm going to extract the audio. Extract Audio, I can see the audio of the clip here. Now, if I click and drag this clip, it will drag with the audio wherever. That is on the main track. But if I click and drag and go above the main track, let's say over here, yes, it has dragged the clip, but it will not do it anymore. If I click on the video now, the video has detached from the clip. You can reattach it, and now you can put it back on the main track here and snap it. Now they are together again. Of course, you can select the audio here and delete it if you want to. The linkage is about linking the clip to its audio. Now, notice eva select the first clip because there is audio under it, it is linked to this audio. Sometimes it's very annoying like now. If you want to unlink it or move it, you just remove the link and do something like this. For example, I will undo that. These are the link. There is one annoying option. It is this option, turn on preview. If you put it on, you might like it very much. Wherever the mouse pointer is, it will show you in the preview. So it's showing you exactly in the preview here. If it is off, you will have to click and drag the playhead to preview. I am not into turn on preview here. I don't like it when moving with my mouse. I don't like that at all. I prefer to use the playhead here. This was about the magnet, the snapping, and the linkage for the audio. 7. Splitting and Trimming Fast - Timeline Editing: In this video, we are going to take care of some of the tools that are on the left here. Notice when you don't select anything, you have some tools, when you select the clip, you have more tools. We are going to see them in this video and the next one. The first one that gets your attention is this arrow here. This is the selection mode. If you click on the arrow down arrow next to it, you can choose others. But of course, you don't want to come here to change tools. You want to know the shortcut B, right square bracket and left square bracket. I'll show you what they do. The selection tool is obvious, you select. If you take the split tool that is B, I can type B, and I have the split tool. For example, from here, there is a portion I don't want. So here I can split the clip. So I click where the playhead is or anywhere I want, I can split the clip. Now, it's much better always to put your playhead wherever you want to split, and then split, of course. You want to see where you're splitting. I'm going to split over here also. Let's say that this portion here, I don't want it. I want to remove it. I will go for the selection tool and remember, it's A, now selection tool. I will select I will use the delete or the backspace to delete the portion I split. So the split really is used that way, but you can also use it in another way while you split over here and you split over here, you select this portion, you remove it, select this portion, and this is a long way. But you can do it. There are other options here. I will delete to the left and delete to the right. This is something you really want to remember. This is Q, and this is W. How it goes, let's come to this clip here to change views. Let's say I don't want anything from the beginning up to here. I want to delete from the playhead to the first frame of this clip or to the beginning of this clip. All I have to do is to use this command which is Q. I prefer that. I will use the shortcut Q. I deleted everything from where the playhead was to the first frame. Let's say, I don't want anything from this point to the end of the clip. I will adjust my playhead, let's say, from the playhead to the end of the clip, I want to remove it. That will be W. It's very easy to remember, if you look at your keyboard, you have Q on the left, W on the right. Q will cut to the left, W will cut to the right. This is a very important, very good editing technique. If you select a clip, you will have the delete. Obviously, and you have the marker. If you don't select anything and you click on the marker, it will add a marker on the timeline. You can right click on the marker, say Edit marker, and say, cut here, for example, whatever you like. And you can change its colors to whatever you want. Then, it's over here. You can right click and delete the marker. Now, if you select a clip and put your playhead here, say, over here, I'm going to add a marker. Notice the marker has been added to the clip. You can right click and say Edit marker, and say a text. For example, two, remind you or something like this. Is okay. Let's right click on this marker and delete the marker. Now, there is the other option here is to freeze. Come over here, anywhere you want. Let's say you want to freeze for three, four, 5 seconds. All you have to do is to click on the freeze. It has split your clip left and right, and in the middle, you have freeze frames, meaning frames that do not move. Notice it's not moving, they are frozen. The time here is 3 seconds, but of course, you can make it longer, you can make it shorter, and that will be useful. I leave it to your imagination. Here you are stops, freezes and continues. That will be nice for brake dancing, no. Another tool that's very nice is the reverse tool. Let's say we come to over here. I want to reverse the first portion here. I don't want to reverse the whole thing. I will just come over here and click on the split, that's easier than going for B and coming over to click. It's just over here, I split. I will select this guy here. I come over it. I will say reverse it. Here you are. Now the reverse is complete. Sometimes it might take some time is you because I already done this and they are in my cache. I notice how the video is going from left to right. You notice this one is going to the right. In this video now, it's going from right to is going in the first part, it has been reversed and is going from right to left, and then you go back like this. You know that you're doing a brake dance, for example, and you go forward and backward and so on, you can cut your clips the way you would like and play with the reverse as much as you want. I remind you again there is no reset. For you to do that, you need to undo if it is possible or come back and reverse again. And it will work. Now, I cannot get rid of the cut. The way I will do it is to remove my link, delete this one, and just extend the clip. I'll go back to what I had before the split and the reverse. Not to make it long, in the next video, we will tackle the other three, which are very nice. 8. Capcut's Flip, Rotate, and Crop Tools for Creative Editing: The next in line, I will select a clip, and you have the flip or the mirror. The mirror will mirror it vertically on a vertical ax in the middle. If you click on mirror, you will notice it has mirrored it, and I will mirror it again and again and again. So this is the mirror. I can't remember how it was, but I think it was like this. This is the mirroring it's very easy to use. Then you have the rotate. If you click here, it will rotate at 90 degrees. You click again 90 and you notice that it's continuing the value over here. It's going to show a value over here. It will never go back to zero, just increase and increase. It's really fun. So I'm going to get it back to the way it was. Notice here, this is a mirror but horizontal mirror. The image is upside down. Now, in the basic here, you can go back and say, get it back to zero, and you are back to original over here. Yet you can use this guy here also to rotate to any angle you want. I'll get it back to zero. The rotation sometimes very useful when using some sticker, stories like this. It works also for texts and stickers. Of course, you cannot rotate the audio. Now you have a very interesting command here, which is the crop ratio. I will click on it, and it opens a new window. In this window, I have rotation with a crop ratio. Now my ratio is free, so I don't have a set ratio. If I rotate you will notice it is rotating and zooming in and out to always fit the video inside the frame. Whatever you have here now is the frame, the big one, like you see outside, and it's always trying to fit it. That's very interesting and very powerful when doing certain videos, you can zoom in and rotate, but you will not have the black corners and stories like this. To get it back, I will put it back to zero. That is rotate keeping the ratio. If you come to crop ratio, I am in the free crop, which means I can crop it the way I would like. In fact, I want to reset this, confirm, I want to go to this clip. Yes, I will select this. I will go back to cropping. They are in the free crop. Free crop meaning I can crop it the way I would like, just like this. But notice this is a crop ratio. If I crop it, This is not what I'm going to have a small clip in the middle here. If I say confirm, you notice I scaled it up is trying to keep the ratio of 16 by nine. This is the ratio of our timeline here. I can make it smaller. I scaled it down to 56%. I can make it bigger if I like to. I can also reset it back to 100%. This has been cropped to a free ratio. I'll go back to the crop here and reset the crop. And come back to free here and instead of free, for example, I can use the nine by 16, which is very much on social media, including TikTok and YouTube. I'm going to crop it to nine by 16. Now, whatever cropic I do, it's going to keep it nine by 16. If I make it smaller, notice how, I made it smaller. It will keep nine by 16. If I confirm here, yes, it is nine by 16. It's trying to keep up with the frame of the timeline. I can change the frame of the timeline to nine by 16, and here we are, you have a vertical video. Cool. I'll go back to 16 by nine. L et's go back to the crop now and reset the crop and go to other crops now, you can use Steel 16 by 94 by three, and the one by one that you might use for Instagram, you can adjust it. I'm going to make it square. Steel square is one by one, confirmed, and it's one by one. I'm trying to cope with the 19 by six of the timeline. Let's select this clip again, and let's go to crop and reset it and confirm, we leave it like this and we'll play other tricks later on. 9. Practical Guide to Mastering Capcut: The Importance of Hands-On Practice: Mastering PCAT or any other software is all about practice. With each practice session, you will move closer to becoming an expert with anything you have been learning. Please. In this course, when you complete a section, stop, put me off and start practicing what you have learned. That is very important. Otherwise, the information you got will get lost here and there. Your assignment for this section is to choose a theme. For example, I chose something simple like mountains, and you want to create a timeline of short clips using videos from the library. Add, trim, cut, reverse, crop, and play and have a lot of fun. This is for you to train on all the tools and editing in the timeline. Try to use or play with all the tools. They are simple and easy if you practice. 10. Setting Up Your Capcut Project: A Step-by-Step Guide: However, starting from this video, we are going to work on a series project. We are going to create a new project, set it up, and also bring our media and start video editing and creating a beautiful timeline. L et's start with setting a new project. I'll click on it, and it will open for you a new project. Now we want to set the details for the project, like you can see the name is a 330. It's saved somewhere, the ratio and so on. We want to change these settings to have a project that's good for the work you're doing. So you want to modify these details before you start importing and working. Now, you have two tabs here, the details and performance. Let's start with the details. First of all, the name of the project. It's a serial number. You can add a name, for example, coffee cup training. CCAT will save a draft of your project. You notice there is no save in CCAT. You just exit is always saved. And this draft is under this folder, which is quite big users, movies, CCAT, user data projects, and so on. You notice that the name is still 330, and you will stay 330 until you exit and you re open. Import material. You can copy them to where the project is, or you can keep them in original place. Of course, if you keep them in the original place, at least you know where they are. Now when it comes to ratio, remember we talked about this when we're cropping. It's much better to set the ratio. If you don't set the ratio, then it will take the ratio of the first video you are going to drop in the timeline. So better yet to go steam by nine. I'm creating here a video for YouTube, for example. And the resolution I don't want it adapted. If you leave it to adapted, it will be the resolution of the first video that you dropped in the timeline. So I'm going to change it to customize and here in 1920 by 1080, I'm very happy with that. This is the size of most of the videos I have. Now, frame rate is 30 frames per second. That's very good. You can keep it like this, but ensure your videos are 30 frames per second plus or minus one. It's okay. But I'm going to change it to 24 frames per second because I know the clips I'm going to use are 24, 25, and 30, 24 will be excellent and I can speed up and slow down these clips. For the color space, SDR rec 79 is excellent for the web. That's very good here, and it will do a good job in streaming. Then let's go to performance. In performance, always enable proxy. Proxy will reduce the preview resolution of the videos. When you're playing, it's going to be quite fast or quite smooth. You can set it to 720 or 540. We can keep it 720. My PC can take it. It converts the material above the proxy resolution. That if you have 2k4k, it will reduce and 720, so you can preview very fast. So we have done the details and the performance and we click safe. Now, you notice here, I still have 0330. That's no problem because when I exit, I come back here, it will give me the name, I set it up, so don't worry about it. So setting up the project before you start importing your media and playing around and editing, it is very important in my opinion. In the next video, we are going to import some videos and maybe start video editing. 11. How to Import Media into Capcut in a Structured Method: Hi there. In this video, we are going to learn how to import, actually it's very easy. If you come to media and local, you have import here. I'm sure you've already seen it. Click on the import here. It will take you to your file manager or whatever your navigation system is, and you can select a folder, select the subfolder. Select few videos from here, or all of them if you want. I select all of them if you want, just like this. I'm using the shift and click, and you can import them all together. That's fine. But also you can come to import, you go select a few videos from here, just like this and say, Okay, import. You can do something else, I'm playing, but you get the Mpoint. You can select few videos from here, click and drag and drop them there. That's what I always do. Another way to import is to go to your file finder and select whatever videos you want, and then click and drag and drop them in. Be careful, this is outside pCT. I'm going to select them all and delete. CPCt can import the same structure that you have on your saving devices. For example, your Hard disk or USB, whatever you like, if I click on Import here, I can select a main folder and click on Import. You notice imported the folder. I double click imported the two folders that were inside. I double click, I have my videos here clip, and I still have a folder inside here. And this is the last of the queue. Then you can navigate over here, you go up coffee cup up and it's pretty easy to import ICP cp. What I want to do now is to select the main folder here and deleted and import for the course, some files that we are going to use. I will come to coffee cup and this is exactly what I want. Actually, I'm going to import this guy here, double click, and I have everything I need. I am now in the grid. I can go to list and see a piece of the videos here, what are their contents, something like this. I can go to voice over. I can see the waves of the audio file. I'll go back to coffee cup. About the proxies, you notice very well that in the grid here view, the proxy is enabled for all my video that I imported here. This is because you remember the proxy, we turned it on, and this is pretty important for you to work very smoothly in CPC. After importing our videos, we're going to drop them in the timeline. We'll do that in the next video. 12. How to edit Source/Timeline Clips and Change Content: In this video, we are going to start populating our timeline. We are in the process of creating our final video. Now the way we are going to work in this project is add the voice over to the timeline and above the voice over, we are going to add the relevant clips. Depending on what is said, we are going to add the relevant clips. Simply. Let's go to the voice over folder. I will double click it. If you click on the audio, of brewing the perfect cup of coffee. Write it home. Now, you can listen to it till the end to understand exactly what the project is all about, but I know it and we are going to go through it. I will select the clip and the glass, and here it is in the timeline. Then I'm going to zoom to fit and a bit more. Okay, so we can see the waves. Notice how you can see the waves of the audio over here. Notice that the audio comes under the video. That's very important. Let's go back to coffee cup and now we want to add the B roll. It's a be roll for the audio. I'll select the first clip and this is the clip I want to add just in the beginning. Prepare your coffee cup. One way to add the clip to the timeline, you can just click on the plus and come over in the timeline here, trim it on the right and trim it on the left. I'm going to have to trim it on the right and the left. Trimming from the left and right will leave some unused frames on both sides. These unused frames will be used by the transitions, and they are called handles. It's very important to have handles for every clip in case you want to add transitions or do some certain effects. Now, I'm okay with that. You can do this method here, but I will show you another method that I prefer. I'm going to use it all along. I will select the clip here. If you come to the left and the right here, you have these handles. You can click and trim the clip over here. So I'm adjusting the point. I'm going to adjust the outpoint also. And notice you have a scissor here, it means this clip has been trimmed. I'm going to add it to the timeline and then come back and adjust it even more. So this method is better because sometimes you will add very long clips and you barely can find the right side. This is okay for me if I play it. Discover the art of brewing the perfect cup of coffee. I know this clip is very high resolution, so I can scale it up or resize it to fill the frame. The black here is the frame. To do this, I can just zoom in or zoom out in fact, and then use one of the corners here and just scale it up. Something like this. This will work, then I can adjust it. The way I would like. All I did is to click and drag. That's one way to do it. I'm going to undo this to and go back to full size. Or full view. And then in the basic here, you can use the scale. Click on the scale and scale it up as much as you want or as much as it is needed. This is fine. You could use the position here to take your clip up, but I will click and drag to adjust it exactly where I want, making sure there is no black around the corners or the site. So I have my clip in place now. I will play And there is Rt at home. Right at home. So I have this clip for right at home. And what I want is maybe 2 seconds while she's stirring the cup here. I will trim it left and trim it right, so I need a very small piece, but I want it to be stirring, and I will add to the timeline. It's very long. That's okay, so we can trim it just over here. Now, I'm sure I have handles on the left and on the right, and use frames for my transitions. I want to play it. And notice hand is not moving. It looks like a picture here. I want to change that. We can fiddle with the in and out point. We'll work half hour, but I want to show you a method how to change the content of the clip without changing its duration on the timeline. I'll right click and go to Trim clip. In the trim clip here, you have a section here. This section represents whatever is displayed on the timeline in terms of duration. You can click on it and drag it right, so it goes to the left, so you're going towards the point. I'm going to drag it. You can click on it and drag it right, so you're going towards the outpoint. Now I want to choose the portion where it's moving. Where is it? We're getting there. Then I can play it. No, I want a bit more. I play it again. Come here. Yes. Here, it's moving the hand, it's stirring, so I will replace the clip. See if you have the good o started. That's a very good job now because there is some animations not a picture. Let's get started. Right clicking and trimming the clip is called a slip edit, so you slip it around started. I don't want this, Let's get started. So I'm going to edit it. I will cut it from here. Come back to the beginning. Let's say from here, select the one I want to cut. And of course, I'm going to use the W or delete on the right. I'm going to press Delete on the right. Now, it will not ripple meaning. It will not close the gap. I have to click and bring it in, and it will snap, make sure your snapping is on. Let's play again. First, choose your favorite coffee beans for the best flavor. Go for freshly roasted beans. Choose your coffee beans. I will have this clip. This is the one I want to use. I'm going to trim it left. Notice here I can adjust it because it's really long clip. It's 8 seconds in fact. I will start from here and make sure that I will trim it on the right in case I need to add any transition. I'm going to trim it just like this and add it to the timeline. Here it is, but it's short. I'm going to bring it just over here. I'm row it under is your favorite coffee beans. That's care for me. If I want to change this content, of course, I right click trim clip, and then try to play with the content from over here. I will cancel this. Then there is another clip. Est here. Go for freshly roasted beans. I have the freshly roasted beans. I can just trim it left and right, something like this and just put it on the timeline. It's very long, and then I'm going to just put it here. Next. That's very good. Now I have these clips on the timeline. What have we learned? We have learned how to trim on the timeline, how to trim in the source, and also how to change the content of a clip through trim clip here. In the next video, we are going to play more and we are going to use the speed to delay a clip and make things working. 13. How to use speed variation to extend/shorten a clip: If you listen to the second part here, grind your beans to the right coarseness. A medium grind works best for most brewing methods. It will be interesting to have two clips, but I know have. I can use this one and play some tricks to animate it a bit because it shows the granulation. But I prefer to use this clip over here. This is a really complicated clip because it continues and so it's 18 seconds. I need to trim it. The way I want it is just after the jump, there is a jump here. I'm going to put it after the jump. I'm trying my best. Then trim it here as much as I can, something like this. That's fine. I'm going to add to the timeline. Then I'm going to adjust the timeline. Actually, the first frame is okay. No plane here the last frame is not okay. To get on the right frame I want, I can use the left and right cursors to move one frame at a time. I'm going to use it on the left on the right, so I will get to this frame and this is where I want to trim. Now I want this clip to cover up to here. Let's add a timeline marker. I'm going to put it here, I d selected, and I will add a timeline marker to show me exactly where it's going to be. I will select the clip, how I'm going to extend it. Of course, I cannot trim it. On the right, it will add more frames that I don't want. The best way here, in this case is to use the speed. Come to video and come to speed. Not as you have here the speed, it's times, and if you go to the right, you will increase the speed, which will make the clip a bit sh, much shorter, in fact. But it's very fast now. No is very fast. You can go to the left, so you decrease the speed. Now it's 70% of the speed, can decrease it up to 3%, for example. I'm going to go back to 2%, I did not reach where I want. I'm going to put it to one times one. This is 10% of the speed. Now it's much longer. It's okay. I will trim it. Let's play it and see exactly how the jump writing course. That's because the clip is, for example, 24 frames per second. When it's played now, it's missing some frames and somehow is duplicating or jumping frames in this case. So I need to smooth the slow motion. You have the option just over here. You click on it, and it will start working processing the slow motion for frame blending. So it's trying to blend the frames so you can have more frames, and when it completes 100%, we can play it and see the result. So it completed. Notice that it did not do the frame blending for this portion of the clip. It did it for the whole duration of the clip. So if you trim it on the right now, you will notice that the frame blending will work. Now, with frame blending, if you play it is not still jumping and works best for most brewing methods. Now we're going to go back to the beginning and instead of frame blending, you can click on it and go to optical flow. O optical flow in any software is the best blending to be able to slow down a clip where you don't have enough frames per second. I select optical flow. Actually mine is already rendered at 10%. Usually, it will take you one or 2 minutes to complete the rendering. If I play now, notice the mis to the right coarseness. A medium grind works best for most brewing methods. Y your coffee. Notice I'm using a proxy here. When I'm doing my last video is going to remove the proxy and use the exact clip and it will be even better. One thing I would like to show you here is that I have the preview quality on quality. The quality is the priority. I can go to performance. That's about the speed of the preview. If I look at it, it's going to look good, but not that good me because I have the proxy and my PC is quite good, I can use here quality priority. Let's play. Next, grind your beans to the right coarseness. A medium grind works best for. Amazing. W Amazing. Now the next thing is to do some color correction here, and it will be an amazing clip. Thank you very much for listening. And the next video, I'll show you some stacking, some stories that you can use in all your videos. 14. Creating a Multi-Clip Layout in Capcut: Aligning Video Clips: Hi there. In this video, we are going to achieve this, having three clips, one next to each other, well aligned, exactly the same size, and with a background. Now, the trick here is to use a very practical method to achieve this. Go. Let's start. Our first clip here a coffee maker. Whether it's a French press drip or espresso machine. I'm going to go a French press drip and espresso machines. So the French press will be this clip over here. And it's quite a nice clip, so I'm going to trim it on the left a bit, trim it on the right before there is anything maybe over here, and drop it in the timeline. Now, I don't know until when it has to go, but I think it is Ensure it's clip. Ensure. Okay, just over here. So I'm going to extend it. Look at it. Prepare your coffee maker. Whether it's a French press drip or espresso machine. Cool. So this is one of the third. How I'm going to make it a third? Well, I can use masks, but it's going to give me problems because masks are free transform. The best way is to crop it. So I'm going to go to crop it. Then of course, we can play around with this, but that will not do the trick. What we want is to go to nine by 16, nine by 16, and then adjust it the way you would like, more of the handle and less of the hand. Then confirm, that's all I want. Then I'm going to put it on the right. That's pretty cool. The next one is going to be the drip just over here at the bottom. I will trim it on the left, a bit on the right, not to a bit. A lot. I want to just that will do. I'm going to add it to the timeline. Of course, it added over here, so I can click and drag it up and release. When I release, it will create a truck that is above the original truck. Now, I have this clip here. I'm going to extend it just like this. Clip is true, it's a vertical clip, but you know it is smaller than the other one. I don't know it's ratio exactly. To fix it, I will go to crop again and go by nine by 16. Now I have the nine by 16. When I adjust it, whatever I do here, it will stay nine by 16. We have seen that before. Actually, this is pretty cool, just like this. I will confirm. Of course, I have enough resolution not to lose the resolution here and the clip will stay sharp. If I play it now, prepare. Call that. Whether it's a French press drip or apres. I wanted to drip here, so I'm going to make it shorter, trim it even more up to here, and come to speed. I have the clip selected, I'm going to go over it and decrease the speed a bit, release, decrease, and release. Yes, actually, it's pretty good now. Now by decreasing the speed, I made the cli clip longer really My content is pretty cool. Of course, I can come back here and do the blending. Let's go to optical flow. It will take some times, I will leave it to work. It will be okay, then you'll give me the right one. Now, this clip here, I come back to video. I want to center, which is centered now. Let's go and find our expresso machine, for example, this one, I will trim it on the right, I will trim it on the left. Actually, I don't want to see anything inside. Few frames if I have a transition, and then that's cool. That's not bad. I a bit less. I'm going to drop it, not comes over here. Click and drag and put it on top and it will create a track for me. Here you are. Now, if I play Here your coffee maker. It's wither. I'm going to use the same trick because I don't care about these guys. I will select it and come to speed and reduce the speed just like this. That's fine. And I think it's okay because image. Now I need to crop it and I will go exactly for nine by 16. I have one third here. I'm going to do it just like this. I think this is cool. I think we have too much here. Yeah. Okay, I will confirm, and I need to put it on the right, so this is on the right here. If I come back to this clip and go to speed, it has finished his optical flow. If I play now, make sure this is here. Well aligned, and this is well aligned. Yes. And then play Prepare your coffee make. I have French press drift. But now I want to do more. Now there is something here. I want to add the background. This is the black one, and this is on the corner. I don't like it very much. I want to add the background like a border and in between. I will select the first clip. Press command and select the second one and command and select the last one. If you are on the windows, it's going to be control and click. Notice now I have one binding box here. I can now play with the scale of the binding box. I can play it from here, make it smaller. That's not working fine. I'm going to use this guy here and make it smaller. Notice the difference here, if you use the scale is scaling the three of them, each video. But if I click and drag from the binding box here, I'm really using it is one video, one frame. Notice the difference here. I'm going to go like this. I like this one. Maybe we can adjust it a bit more, but that's fine. Now I need a background here color. What I can do is to go and find something blue, green, red, but that's not the way to do it. The way to do it is to select the clip that is on the main track just over here. Within basic, if you go to the bottom here, you have Canva. If you select the one above the main track, anyone that is not on the main track, you will not have Va. You have the order of the layers, which one is on top and the same for this one. Only the main track has Va. If you select the Va and then click ann and you go to color, now you have the choice to add a background color to this clip on the main track. For example, I want a dark gray. This is gray, this is black. I will go for dark gray. Come back to the color picker here and adjust my color to dark. That is nice. I will click out and maybe we play. Prepare your coffee maker. Whether it's a French player I notice now this guy here on the main track has the color of the background. If I select these two clips, using command here and press V to put them off, you will notice that it is only this guy that has the background, which is on the main track. Will undo this. Now we have our clip. Nice nice. If I want to adjust the clopping on this one, I'll come back here. Maybe I'll do something like this, confirm, stay in the same place, and you can align them the way you would like. Now, I put them one, two, three according to the voice over. We have our clip. We will proceed whether it's French press, drip or 15. How to use freeze frame to create a still clip: So now we have three trucks that we are working with. This is three video tracks. And the tracks are just over here. You can lock a truck, you can hide the truck, so you don't see it anymore, and you can mute the audio for this truck. So you're mouting the audio for all the clips in the truck. And of course, we know the V. V will make it off or on. You can find all this in the shortcuts also. If you right click here, you will notice that you have deactivate clip, that is the V I been using here. Cool. So let's add a bit more. Here we have clean and ready to go. So I want it very clean. I'm going to use this clip. But actually, when it plays, you start putting coffee. I want to use the first frame from this clip. I'm going to trim it as much as I can. That's the maximum, and put it in the timeline. I'm going to zoom in and you notice the playhead is on the first frame. So I will now go for freeze, and it will create a freeze frame. That is almost an image now. You can even export it as an image, and then you can remove the one we don't want playing So we are just over here. Now, if you play it fine. Nothing is happening. Of course, we are going to make it more interesting. Let's zoom in first, and make it as big as possible, and move it to the center. Something like this. Later on, we are going to add some animations, some transitions, whatever you like. But for now, I'm going to cheat a bit and show you about the stickers. If you come to stickers and I am in details here. You can use here that you can add to the clip. Something like this, for example. And let's move it to the side. We can have two of them. Going to copy that control commend C, and then control commend V to pace. Put it on top, for example, and put this guy here, one here, one there. And with a nice transition, we will see the glitter. Let me deselect You can see the glitter, squeezy Cool guys. We are going to remove the sticker and don't tell anybody I cheated here, because we want to go one step at a time. In the next video, we'll take care of the rest. 16. Complete the Project Timeline: Let's continue with our clips here. We want to add them all to the timeline and remove the odio that we don't coffee. Now brew your coffee, let's go for a nice clip here. I think this one will do. I already trimmed it. I'm going to add to the timeline. It's too long, so let's make it shorter and look at it. Now, brew your coffee. I can right click on it and say trim clip and choose maybe something better. T from here is awesome. I will replace the clip. There is some dialogue here, I don't want to a great cup. Is the right ratio. So this is not really necessary. I don't like it even. I'm going to cut it from here, come back and just select the right clip, press W to cut the right, and then bring this one and just match it. And make sure that I have my stepping on. So let's what you have. Once brewed, pour your coffee into your favorite mug. We can add a bit of this because it's one brewed and then get the cup of coffee which I already trimmed here and added to the timeline. And we do like this, the sea Once spre. Pour your coffee into your favorite mug. Customize with So customize with milk. This is the clip for the milk. I already trimmed it. I'm going to add it to the timeline. It's very long. Let's do something like this. A with milk milk. I'm going to stop here. Let's right click, trim clip, and see exactly inside want to start putting the milk. This will do. Now, for the sugar, we have a special clip. It is this clip here. I already trimmed it. I'm going to add it to the timeline and play or enjoy it black. So O enjoy it Black, so I'm going to bring it here. This is the one for jod Black. I'm going to add it to the timeline. And I think it's okay. Black. And that's it. You're perfect My perfect cup of coffee, it is very nice one. This one, I'm going to put it in the timeline, trim it as much as possible. But now I want to do something else here. Maybe I will crop it to 16 by nine, and then make it smaller a bit. Put it here in the center. Y. That looks good. Confirmed. That's bat Your perfect cup of coffee is ready. Now, for the next the rich flavors in the Roman. Okay. You have this clip that you can play with, you can add it, or you have the other clip. What is it? This one, but I don't want the lady down there. I want this guy drinking. I'm going to add it the timeline, and of course, it's very long, so I'm going to make it shorter. And we're done. Let's come back to the beginning. And see our work. Discover the art of brewing the perfect cup of coffee. Right at home. First, choose your favorite coffee beans. For the best flavor, go for freshly roasted beans. Next, grind your beans to the right coarseness. A medium grind works best for most brewing methods. Prepare your coffee maker. Whether it's a French press, drip or espresso machine, ensure it's clean and ready to go. Now, brew your coffee. Once brewed, pour your coffee into your favorite mug. Customize with milk, sugar, or enjoy it. Customize with milk, sugar, or enjoy at black. And I think the milk should be shorter. So we bring in sugar. With milk, sugar, or enjoy at black. Even the sugar rear should be a bit shorter. And that's it. That's writ again. Customize with milk, sugar, or enjoy at Black. And that's it. Your perfect cup of coffee is ready. Enjoy the rich food I'm gonna extend it. I think we have done a great job. West next is color correction, stabilization, and lots of stories that we can see in the next videos. 17. How to Extract, Remove and Adjust Audio - Music with Fades: Hi there. In this video and a couple more, we are going to work with the audio. Audio is very simple, and there are some awesome effects, if you like, that you can use in CPC. Now, the first thing I do for my audio is to select all my clips here. These are roll clips, they're not supposed to have any audio. But sometimes as you can see, this clip has some audio and it could be some noise, something that you don't want to hear. When I select all of them, I right click, and go to extract audio. When you extract the audio, all the clips will show their audio here. Now, usually you don't want this audio, so you're going to make a lasso around them and delete them. In the audio over here, you have music. You can select the music that you want to add to your videos. You have sound effects that's very right. You have copyright. I find it very important is we'll check if your music here has any infringement on any copy right, but only for TikTok, not YouTube, not Facebook, or all the others. And then you have the extracted audio, which we haven't done yet. You have TikTok when you log in here and you're using some music, I think so. I will show you more audio over here. Let's go back to music and we open it, and for example, you can select the theme love. There is a I don't know, some nice music we can listen to add it to your video the way we'd like. I'm going to go for spring. I nice for me for this video. It's calm. I'm going to click and drag and drop it in the timeline. Notice is not snapping to the beginning because this is not a main truck, of course. In this audio clip, you can see some red. Red means that it is over peeking. The volume is higher and is breaking your speakers. So you don't want to have any red over here. To adjust the loudness, you can decrease the loudness just from the basic for the audio. So because I've selected the audio, I have the audio panel here, and you can select your volume and take it down as much as you want. Something like this will do. Now, the fed in fade out are quite important because when you're starting a video, just like this, discover the earth of brewing. You don't want the volume to start high. You want the volume to start at zero and increase slowly slowly according to a certain time that you need. For that, you use the fa in. I I take the fat in to 3 seconds, That means my audio on this track is going to start zero, no volume at all, and increase the volume, and it will get back to the right volume or the set volume in 3 seconds. Come to the end over here and cut this clip. I can do the same for the FD out here. I'm going to set it at 3 seconds or whatever you like. When you come to the track itself, you have the circle. This circle is the fade out now. You can adjust it manually from here. Usually, you will use this one to listen to the fading. So it's not a number. It depends now on what you want. The rich flavors in the aromas and start your day right. You notice how it faded out. It's pretty nice, and over here, I wanted to fade in slowly. Discover the art of brewing the perfect cup of coffee. R at home. And now the volume is at 100% according to what I said. Now, you have the loudness normalization. I'm going to put it to zero again and normalize the loudness. It means it's going to balance the volume so there is no excess loudness, something like this. We select this one, is going to work a bit. Notice here, it has -23 LUFS loves. That means this is very good for TikTok and Tube, -23 here. If I play now, You'll notice there is no high peaks that can hurt the ears or something like this. Enhanced voice and nose reduction and the rest. We will see them in different examples in the next videos. 18. Enhance Voice, Voice Changer/Filters/Characters/Speed and more: Let's play more with the audio. I will select this clip. I'm going to put the song off or the music off so we can hear here what's happening 100%. So we have the same stories of fade in fade out. For voice over, you really don't want to fade in or fade out. That would not be nice. But sometimes the fade out is cool if you want to. Of course, you want to go for the loudness normalization, but in this case here, I wouldn't do that. It's very well done, and I will remove it. Now, you can enhance the audio. So let's listen to it before enhancing. Pour your coffee into your favorite mug. Customize Now, you can notice that the audio here is almost perfect, but nevertheless, you can enhance it. Once brood, pour your coffee into your favorite mug. There is a slight difference here. Yet it's perfect, but you can try it with your own voice and later on when we record, we are going to enhance it even more. You can go up to 100%. Usually it will render it 0-100% for enhanced voice. But since I've done it before, it's in Mcache. Let's play it now with the enhanced. Once brute. Pour your coffee into your favorite mug. Without the enhanced. Once brood, pour your coffee into your favorite mug. You notice there is quite a difference. And actually, with the enhanced voice, it's better at 100%. Coffee into your favorite. Taking consideration, this is for this audio. So if you have different audios, things are gonna change a bit. You enjoy a black. That I'm going to remove enhanced voice, make it normal. 100%. I come to voice changer. Now, this is really awesome. I love it. Here, you have several effects you can use. Let's go for the mic. Pour your coffee into your favorite much. And increase the room size. Okay, something like this. Notice the odio now. Customize with milk, sugar or enjoy it black. So it's like a guy talking in a very empty room. You can make it strong. Some of them have the settings here. Fe. It's very awesome. You can use the echo. Pour your coffee your favorite coffee customize with milk, sugar. Well, if you're into scary movie or whatever you like, you're doing a tik tok. Now, this is very interesting. You have a lot of them that you can use. Pour your coffee into your favorite mug. One bd. Pour your coffee into your favorite ug. That's my favorite one. It reminds me of a movie, the soap for example. Let's put it to original and go back to voice character here. Now you can change the character. If you select trickster for example, it's loading now. Once bred. Pour your coffee into your favorite mug. Customize That's awesome. You have the egg. F. Pour your coffee into your favorite mug. I have these options. You might have more or less of these options. Let's go to Jesse. I like Jessi March. Once bred. Pour your coffee into your favorite mug. Customize with milk, sugar, or enjoy it black. That's it. Let's go to speech to song. Now, I have only one option here. You might have very many options, even you might not have the speech to song. It depends on the version you are using and what country you are in. If you add the fork here, That's bote. Pour your coffee into your favorite mug. Customize Actually, it has taken the voice and turn it into a song. It's quite cool because I'm using Jesse here. So if I use Trickster, the other one speech to song is still there. So it's working on Trickster. It's working also on speech to song is going to finalize. What's bot? Pour your coffee into your super Mug. Customize with milk. I can come back to basic here and normalize the loudness. Sugar enjoy it black. In it, your perfect cup of coffee is ready. Enjoy the rich flavor. Do you notice it's extremely awesome, how you can play with audio within cup cut. So I'm going to put. Let's go to speed. I always faced problems with speed when you increase the speed of a speech. You know, everything else increases and it look always like a chip bunk. But in cup cut, it's much more interesting. Of course, don't go increasing the speed to 60, it's going to sound ridiculous. But if you increase the speed a bit, let's say at 30% increase, so it's 1.3. With milk, sugar, or enjoy it black. And that's it. Your perfect cup of coffee is ready. That's really awesome to increase the speed without having a tone change. If you put the tone change on, this is exactly like other software. Where now is going to solve your coffee into your favorite mug Customize with Just like a chip uk, and you don't want that. You want this off. Well, depending on what you're doing also, let's say you can go to 1.5. I will not go higher than this. Once bred. Pour your coffee into your favorite mug. It's not, okay? I think 20% is the best. That's what I will do for this clip. Maybe you will have another audio clip where you speak in nicely, and you can spit coffee into your favorite mug. Customize with milk, sugar, or enjoyment. Remember, you can go back to the voice changer, change something, change the character, for example, stick the sticker. It will keep the speed. Once sped. Pour your coffee into your favorite mug. Customize with milk, sugar, or enjoy. Very nice. These are the tricks that you can play. Pour your coffee into your favorite. We are returning to Basic. I'm going to go back to Basic and enhance the voice, maybe. Now we have three clips that we want to work on. You can select all of them, by the way. Let's go back to this guy here and put the volume at zero. They are all similar now. I can select all of them and add the audio, for example, add the volume to five, something like this. Then you'll notice all have the same audio. We remove loudness from here, so they are all identical. Then you can select all of them, for example, and then loudness normalization for all of them. That's pretty cool. It will save you a lot of time when you have several cuts over here. And the enhanced voice, notice it's a minus. It means not all of them have enhanced voice. I'm going to check it and they will all have the enhanced voice. You can work on multiple clips at the same time, and this is very practical. Remember these things don't go one clip after the other. Discover the art of brewing the perfect cup of coffee. Write at home. We cover the lot, and the next video, I'm going to show you more. 19. Separate Music and Vocals from Songs: There is an option that I really love and I use for my own videos and for clients videos also. It is the vocal isolation here. I need to add another clip here. I will come to my file funder and select this clip and drag and drop it inside here. I'm going to put this clip in the timeline. This is a song. Friend. So it's a very nice song that I love very much. It's an old song. So the audio is connected to the clip. I'm going to right click and extract the audio. So I have the audio set aside here. Of course, you have the volume and stories and so on. Let's go to vocal isolation. You notice here that we have the voice and the music? Awesome. So let's select it. You have two options here. Keep the vocals or remove the vocals. Friend me. I'm gonna go for remove vocals. And you notice her voice disappeared, and it's really pretty well done. I have to admit that. I don't understand why there is keep vocal, but maybe you want to alternate. From one to the other. So this is remove vocals. This is very useful if you want only the music, or you're creating I don't know, some karaoke, whatever you like. I have used the song here. And if I come over to do, I have here the copyright. I can check if I can upload this to TikTok. It will check all the clips. I will check it. Running the copyright, I have music, I have my own audio, I have the exa song here, and it's going to analyze everything. It says, sound Copyright check past. You can uppload this to TikTok. But make sure guys that you are also safe for YouTube. So don't use full songs. For education purpose, we can always get away with it, but for some commercial videos, you might not get away with it. Cool, guys. Thank you very much. This is voice isolation and checking, and t's see you in the next video. 20. How to Import only Audio from any Video: There is an option that is awesome, that you can use all the time, mainly if you're taking some audio from other videos if you want to, and then you add your own video. This option, you will find it under audio here under extract audios. You can import a video. Actually, you're not going to import the video. I'm going to take a video from here, and that's the video. I want only the audio. Usually what we do, you come to media, you go to bring in the video here, drop it in the timeline. Extract the audio here. Of course, your chaining is off, that is audio and video. You delete the video. That's very fine. It's a long way. But there is better that you can do. Come to Audio, come to extract audio and say import, and I'm going to select this one. Now. Since I already did a trial on this one is going to be pretty fast, maybe you will need to wait a few seconds for it to extract the audio. I will say import. It did not import my video. That's the old video. It imported only my audio from the installation. The first thing and you can put it in the timeline and start working on it the way you would like. That is awesome. Yet there is a better way to do it. If I select this, I'm going to delete it. Then I'm going to come to media and make sure I don't have it here. I will come back to audio and I have extract audio here. I'm going to go to my fit finder, select the video I want and drop it just over here. Actually, you are not importing the video itself. You have imported only the audio. You can do it again if you like for another one. Let's say this one we didn't use, and import, is going to take a few seconds and it has imported only after inion, the first thing you want to do Hi there. In this video, So you can use this in the timeline now the way you would like. Here you are. So if I zoom out, you can see them both. They are very long clips. Cool, guys. So this is how to extract the udo and this is very useful and try to remember these shortcuts. I will delete this from here. We don't need them. 21. How to record your Voice Over and Narration: H i there. In CCAT, you can record your own voice over if you want to. We come to the record over here, and you click on it. You have several options. First of all, you can choose your input device. I've chosen the best one I have. You can set the volume for the recording. 100 seems to do very well. You can take it for example to 150. Actually, it will depend on the voice and how loud you are speaking. There is echo reduction that's very important if you're sitting in a room that has certain echo, you can enable this option. I will disable it for me. I don't have an echo. I want to do any work. You can mute the project, so obviously, you will not be recording anything as audio within your project. I think this is very important. You can enhance the voice directly from here or you can wait until you enhance it from the audio panel. That's all the settings that you have to do. You can come over now and click on the red button here to start recording, and I will do that. It will give me three, two, one header, and we are now recording in CP cut. The recording will come out quite nice as a dio, and my voice will sound awesome. I will stop the recording now, though I recorded that. I can continue recording if I want to or just close the window here, and let's come over and listen to our recording. Hi there, and we are now recording in CP cut. The recording will come out quite nice as a nodo my voice will sound awesome. Of course, we are going to cut this. You notice it's re enhancing the voice. It's there, and we are now recording in Cp Cut. The recording will come out quite nice as a nodio, and my voice will sound awesome. I'm not saying this is a 100% professional recorder, but the voice over is quite good over here. Nevertheless, we still have the file, and you can come to voice changer and apply anything that you want. I will delete this from here and I come over and this one from here, and this is about recording in Cp cut. 22. How to Add and Style default text: Let's take care of texts, which will allow you to have titles, lower thirds, captions, whatever you like, and even have text track to certain faces or something like this. Now, there are many ways to add texts within CAPCOt. The first one is to add text, that is the default text, and if you have any preset. The second one is to add it from effects, so you select an effect here, and simply you add the text. The third one is to add from the text templates. For example, the trending, the social media, you select a template and drop it into the timeline. Let's start with the default text, and this is the default text simple. I will add it to the timeline, just bring it over here. Now, I muted everything so we can see what's happening. The first clip here, I came to the blending, as you can see, and reduce the opacity so we can see the text. Remind me to put it back. So you have your default text, and the first thing you notice is a binding box that would allow you somehow to format the text within the binding box. Usually, if I want to centered, I will do something like this. Having the text selected, the panel four text is open. Let's make this one smaller, this one a bit bigger. From here, you can choose the fund. But also you have funds provided by CAPCOT that you can use and they are very safe to use on TikTok, of course. On YouTube or Facebook, maybe somebody will tell you, hey, this is my fund. But I don't think so. You can use these funds very safely everywhere you want. I will leave it to system. Of course, you have the font size. Notice when I increase the font size, the binding box remain the same. It is not the binding box that I'm increasing. I can just stretch it up and down from here. And you have the style bolt on the line and so on. You have the case here, upper case, lower case, or the other case. That is the sentence case or the title case. Unfortunately, as soon as you use this, you lost your default text whatever you type there. Now it is exactly like title. If you want to go back and change the t, you have to go and do it again. There is no undo for these guys. The color is obvious. You have the character spacing and you have the line spacing. Let's add, for example, the perfect, and then I'll add another line coffee cup. Let's go back to character spacing at zero. You have the line spacing now and you can take it up and down, and then you can make it negative. You put them on top of each other if you want to. Of course, you have all the alignments that you want, even you can put a vertical and all other ways that you like. Now you have some presets that you can use. Of course, if you decide to use this one, don't go like, I'm going to use this one. It's perfect. It's very nice somehow, but you need to adjust it. You need to customize it according to your choice. Don't use just like this. Some of them are very nice. To remove the style, that's it. Of course, you have the position and the scare, but not now I'm scaling the whole box, not only the text inside the box, and if you want, you can have x yes, so this is X, and this is why, there is no Z. Now, make sure before you uncheck this one because it stays the same and shows you only 104 and whatever you do, it will stay, make sure they have the same value that is 104%. Then you remove it, so you have a perfect text here. Then you have the alignment of the box. I'm going to put it on the left, on the right, or on top, whatever you play with it the way you would like. The blending here, you have only the opacity of the text. If you want to, you have the stroke, you can add a stroke, black, whatever white, whatever you think is good for your video. You have a background, and this is interesting. I'm going to choose a color that is white, no yellow or red, red will do well. Pink. You notice how the background is a simple rectangle. You can change it to cover only the characters. If I remove the covering only the characters or it's only under the character. You have its opacity around it now, not so surrounding, if I do like this, you not s more the roundness. I think that's important. You have the height of the background. And the width of the background. I'm undoing every time, and you can have set it. I don't know why, but it can look very good. If you have two texts, it might look good here. You play your things. You can glow your text, and you can choose the color for the text and the glow intensity, the range of the glow, how far you're going, I'm going to put it off, turn it up, and you have a nice shadow here that you can add, very nice, in fact, and you can change its opacity. I always like them very dark. Cool. I'm going to remove the shadow. Now you have the curve, and curve will not work if there is a background. I'm going to remove the background first and then come back to curve, and pret cool here, you can curve it the way you would like. Notice this is the curve. You can make it a whole circle, adjust it the way you would like, something like this. This is how you format the default text from here, and remember that you have the preset that you can use. Now there are other things that you can do with the default text, which we'll go through in the next video. 23. How to Style with Effects and Animate Text - Saving presets : Using the default text, you can also add some effects which are very nice and also add some animation, and you can make it the way you'd like and exaggerate or make it very subtle. Let's start. Here, you will add your default text, and then I'm going to make it longer and change the text to perfect coffee cup, and I want it on two lines, I'll edit it from here on two lines. That's perfect for me for now. I will leave alone the basic and go to effects. So here you have so many effects that you can use. For example, this green one, which is not our theme, the red one, just click on it, and it will show you what effect you have. Actually, it will set it up. So I'm going to use this guy here. I like it very much, but I alone like the font. So let's go back to basic. And from the font, I'm going to take Tada. I like this font, by the way, that's good. I could change the color from basic for this preset. I'm going to change the color here to make it very reddish. Something like this will do. Now, you notice that for certain effects, there are some basics that you cannot change. For example, here, the stroke, I cannot add the stroke because the stroke is within the effect. Some of them, you can change everything. Of course, here, I could add a background if I want to. I will go back to effect and it's up to you to choose the effect that you like most. Let's go to animation now. In animation, you have the in animation, you have the out animation, and the loop animation, which is between the in and out animation. Let's zoom in on the timeline. To add an in animation is as easy as clicking on the animation you want. You can see a bit of the animation over here, but feel free to click and the animation appear. That's not bad. Some of them are really very nice, and you can choose the animation and set it and that's it as simple as this. For me here, I'm going to be very conservative. I'm going to use the Zoom in, which is quite nice. It's conservatives. Now you notice there is a lie, a very thin line here above the clip. If you can see it, this is the white line here. This is the duration of the animation. So now it's set at half a second. I can increase the time of the animation. So the animation will take longer to complete. It will take 1 second. Simply. I could make it the whole thing. So notice it's still zooming in. That will be very useful sometimes, but I will return it to 1 second here. Simple. Now we'll come to the out animation. We have set the in animation. We have set its timing to 1 second. The out animation now if you select one, notice comes on the right side, and it has its duration of half a second. You can decide what duration you want. Of course, you can play with all of them, see what you like, make sure they fit your theme. I'm going to go for zoom in because I'm not seeing zoom out. Nevertheless, this is good. So I'm going to play it. It zooms in and then zooms in again and disappear. Now, but it sticks out to my theme very humble. I'm going to make it also 1 second. Now, the practicality here, you notice I can change the timing from here for the in animation and the out animation. Now let's go to loop. Loop is the animation in between the in and out. After you finish the in animation, the loop will play, and then you have the out animation. You can select this one, for example, if you want to, you can select something like this depending on your theme, and this is an awesome one, which is very nice, by the way. I don't think I want a loop animation. My subjects is a bit serious, so I will just remove the loop animation. Let's do an experience it. If I remove the in animation, so I remove the in animation, I remove the out animation. I'm going to go to the loop and add this animation. That's now it's working for the whole duration of the clip, and that is very interesting and actually very practical. So if I select this one, the characters will be there and the will be jumping up and down according to the loop animation. I will undo and keep my in animation and out animation. So I have my in animation and out animation. It's perfect for you to do some very nice animation with the text, and with the use of the effect, it's also quite impressive. Over here, you have save as preset, and that's something you want to use. Let's say you want to repeat this during this video or other videos. You save as a preset, text preset saved to my space, you come to preset, and it's uploading. And it's over here. Now we can come over and actually don't apply this preset, you just add the text over here. Now we added another one. But you notice that it has removed certain things. It has removed the color change that I've done here, and also it has removed the animation. The extent of the preset, whereever you save it, even if you save it over here, not going to save the color. That's another pset. This is our second one here. If I add it, it's going to be identical to the previous one. It means it will not save your animation. It will not save the change of colors. It will save only the effect and the font itself, which is quite cool and still very useful. I will right click here and delete this one. I don't want this preset. I want to have only one pre set here. Now, the way to replicate with exactly all the changes that you have done is very easy. You select your clip, you press the option or art key, and you click and drug, and here you are. You have an identical one, so it's not a big deal. Unfortunately, for another project, you will not be able to do this option here of click and Drug. Thank you, guys. I'll see you in the next video. 24. How to Directly Add Text with Preset Effects: Remember, we mentioned that you can also add texts from effects over here. If you click and open the effects, then you can see they are grouped in categories. These effects here under their categories are similar to the effects that you get after adding a default text. If you come over here, you will find that they are the same effects but grouped under categories. They operate differently. For example, if you select effect from here, it is not added to the timeline, you have to click on the plus to add it to the timeline. Once added, you cannot change the effect just from here. You have to come to these effects, you select the layer and change the effect from here, as simple as this. Actually, this is shortcut, instead of adding a default text then coming to effects and choosing the effect, you can immediately add the effect here according to certain categories, as simple as this. If I come over here, I decide to change these texts, well, if I added to the timeline You will notice that now I have two texts in the timeline on two tracks. These are the effects here, which is a shortcut to adding the default text and coming to the effects over here and changing the effect. 25. How to Add/Adjust/Style Text Templates: Remember, we said that you can add text also through templates. If you come to templates here, you will notice you have very many categories, very many categories. In each category, you have so many templates that you can use. Now templates are very interesting and most of the time they are animated. For example, if I take Assam here, I click on it, I can see it here. Awesomely animated not bad at all. You can click on the plus and add it to the timeline and see the animation not by at all. I will delete this one. Now, due to the number of templates that you have here, I advise you to always put your template in your favor. That's very easy. Come to the star here, click on it, and when it goes yellow, it is in your favor here, as you can see, I added some. You can come over and remove it from your favori by clicking on the star and it's come. Let's add a template on the timeline. I will take this street interview for CPC. I will click on the plus and it's added to the timeline. The first thing you notice, you have paragraph one and paragraph two. To be able to edit at piece, make sure that this arrow is pointing down, so it's not expended just like this. Make sure it's pointing down, so you can see the paragraphs. The most important after you hide the detail is a position in size. This position and size here is for the whole template, so you can scale it down. I can use the scale down here to scale it. Now I have its binding box. I can scale it up and down, the way I would like and move it around the way I would and you can center it, put it on the side, put it on the right, whatever you like, you can adjust it here. When you come to paragraph one, you notice a half cup cut. This is where you change the text. I'm going to write coffee. It's not because paragraph one, it has to be on top. It's in fact on bottom here. Street interview, I'm going to change it to perfect cup of I'm going to add the line. I have my text here. There is more I can work. If I come to the arrow here, I expand. There is here the formatting or the design for coffee. It's for coffee over here. You can bold it, you can underline it, you can do whatever you like. And you notice here, I have the case, per case, it is upper case. Lower case, it doesn't work, and sentence case, it doesn't work. That's because it's built in in the template. There are things such as the color, you cannot change and the formatting maybe you cannot change here. But in all cases, you can change the preset style. So you can choose another style here. I will click out to the select. I will change the style here. Now, the problem here, if you come back and you say no style at all, then it goes back to no style at all, and I lost the style of the template. I need to undo to regain the style here. So be careful about that. Notice I have the style of the template here. If you change style, you cannot go back to the style of the template sometimes. Of course, you have the blending, the stroke, the background, and so on to do the design that you want. Sometimes you can add, sometimes you cannot add. I will troll it down, so I will go to the paragraph now. That's paragraph two. I can do everything. Be careful about changing the font here, you change the font, and somehow if you want to increase the size or decrease the size, it's not going to work perfectly. But it works from time to time, you might change and depending on the template, of course. If you come over to templates, and you notice here, I have these dotted rectangles. This is the binding box of paragraph two. Then I have another dotted rectangle here. This is the binding box of paragraph one, which is coffee. If I decide to change the template here, make sure that you have a two liner also or two paragraphs. If I go for this guy here, happy new year, but it didn't come happy new year, it came perfect cup of coffee. So it does not change your text. You have to go back to basic and change the text if you want. I find that changing templates sometimes is very hard to cope with, and you really have to do a lot of changes, better to bring in a new template and work on it. So I will undo this. You can change certain effects, of course. The way to do that is to come to basic and select the paragraph by clicking inside the paragraph here, and this is the paragraph that you are going to change the effect for. Now I clicked inside paragraph two, I come to effect, and you notice if I click, I will change the effect inside the paragraph two. Of course, paragraph one, I go to one, come to the effect here and change the effect in paragraph one, which is coffee. If you decide to cancel the effect, that's very fine. It goes back to normal no effect at all, and it doesn't come back to the effect of the template. You have to undo using control or command Z if that is possible. So we are back here, and this is the way to add effects. Now, if you change the effect, sometimes you can save as a preset, Let's choose this effect here. No. This one, for example, you can save as a preset, and it will come here in the preset. I'm already in my text with the preset here. And here it is. I can add it now to the timeline, and I have it as a preset. I'm going to undo that and actually undo even from here, if I can. Yes, I like this one very much. This is about templates, and it has some animations. But there is more. In the next video, I will show you how to separate a template and animate the way you would like, and it's very easy. 26. How to Separate Templates and Create Custom Animations: In this video, we are going to take a template, break it apart, separate all the tracks, and then re animate it. I will show you how easy it is. With this method, you will have your own titles, lower thirds, and I will be customized according to what you like. Let's start. Let's go to my favor right here, and I will take Brazil because it has many tracks, and I will add it to the timeline. Now, coming over here, we can see the animation is not bad at all. And we can see that we have three paragraphs here. I'm going to take this clip here, right click on it and go to separate. Not all templates can be separated, but this one you can separate. Text and plate separated. Now I have four tracks over here. The first one is the text amazing places in. Then I have a vector image. It's an image here. You can see vector image, and you can add some animations. For the image, you can scale it up and down, you can position it or rotate it. You have a text again, that is the number ten, and you have Brazil. The way I want to animate it. First of all, I want to start with the vector image. I will leave it there. Then I want amazing to come in. Then the number ten. Maybe after amazing, and then Brazil will come in. They will all end at the same time, but they start at different time. I will select amazing and go to animation. In the animation here, I will choose a nice animation. For example, The wave in, I like it. I'm going to select wave in and it is half a second. Then the vector image, I have different animations here. I want to bring it from the left, so it's slide right, and we will leave it half a second. The number ten, I'm trying to have something nice, for example, something like this will do. I guess so. 10 will appear. If I come over here, I can play and see my animation. I think it's quite cool. The vector image is too early, so I'm going to pull everything here. I'm adjusting it the way I want, and I think this will do it well. There is nothing to it. Just make sure they're not starting at the same time, one after the other, and then you add the animation that you want for each one of them. Simple and magnetic. Here you are. I'm having problems with my player, but it's working fine. Here you are. Of course, you can come over in the basic formated, do whatever you want, the styles that you want. Now, in case the amazing place comes under the vector, just click on it. This is a bug, I guess, and amazing place will come in the beginning or on top of everything. I play now. Here you are very nice animation. We cannot make it a template added to our favorite because it has many tracks here, so I can select all of them, right click and say group. Now, the grouping is useful. When you select one of them, you can select all of them and move them around if you want. I will undo the grouping. Another way to do it is to right click and create a compound clip. A compound clip will take all the tracks and put them in the same clip, and then they will act as a video. You notice this is a video now. You can even animate this one. You can put it on the video track here. And you have your template, and it will play quite nice. To get it faster, you can right click and say pre process, meaning it is going to render it before it's going to play it. If I click pre process here, I notice it's pre processing, when it finishes, it will run it smoothly and fast. I hope you enjoyed this. I hope I gave you a lot of ideas here for you to break up the templates and create your own and make them quite amazing. 27. How to Convert Text to Speech and Style the Audio: Text to speech in Cup cut. We're going to take some texts that we will type, and then we will turn it into a speech or even a song. Let's start. To do that, you need some text, I'll add de four text and come edit the text over here. I will paste some text I have from outside. So look at this few. I love it. It's relaxing and cam. Of course, you can write whatever you like. As long as you like, you can make it two pages. You select the text. It doesn't matter how long is the text. Actually, we are going to delete it later on. And having the text selected, you come to text to speech. Now, over here, you are going to choose the voices that you want and the way it's going to be said. Look at this view. I love it. It's relaxing and calm. And the Queen. Look at this view. I love it. It's relaxing and Calm. I like the charming lady. Look at this view. I love it. It's relaxing and Calm. After selecting the voice that you want, simply you go to start reading. And it will do its job here. It doesn't take long, and it create an audio from the text. Now I can take the text, even I can delete it. It's not necessarily anymore. I can at this view. I love it. It's relaxing and calm. Very nice. It's really, very nice, and very practical. Now we can select the audio or the voice over from here and come to voice filters here. You can change it to Echo. Look at this view. O to this view. Or to whatever you like. You have the voice character again. You can change it back to Jesse. I love it. It's relaxing and calm. L et's go back to filters. We don't want. Look at this view. I love it. It's relaxing and Calm. You have BT. Look at this view. I love it. It's relaxing and calm. For Spitz Song, you need to be longer. This is very short. If I select the fork, you tell me between 5 seconds and 60 seconds, I really have less than that. But nevertheless, you can do that. So the concept is very easy. You add the default text, and then you add the text that you want here. You can type it out and so on, as long as you want. Then as simply as this, you go to text to speech and choose the voice that you want, and it will create an audio file for you that you can use. By the way, you can export this audio file and use it somewhere else if needs be. 28. How to Create Captions from Voice Over or Narration: And welcome to captions. In CPCAt, you can create some awesome captions and you can style them the way you want. You can add all kind of presets. Let's start. First of all, we know very well that we have some English here voice over, and we make sure that the audio is on because CPCAT needs the audio on to read whatever is inside the voice over. If you come to text, you can go to captions over here. You have auto caption. You have auto lyrics when you have a song. And you have local captions, meaning you can upload your script as a RT file, and then you create captions here. We are going to focus on auto captions. The first thing is the spoken language. It's asking you which language is spoken in your voice over. Of course, you want to select the language like English or whatever language you are speaking in the voice over, or simply detect language. There is an option here, clear current captions. It's always good to have it checked because it will delete the previous captions that you have created and you generate new ones. If you're changing the captions, you are editing them, this is an option to keep on all the time. All you have to do to generate your captions now is click on Generate Awesome. It will work pretty fast, by the way, I haven't seen times where it's really lagging and it takes you an hour to do them, I will do them very fast. Here are your captions. If you play now, So we have our captions. I'm going to put the audio off now. I don't need it anymore. I want to see the captions. The first thing you can do is to style your captions, and notice this here apply to all. Meaning, if you deselect and select only one caption, and then you change here the styling, it will change to all of them with the apply to all check. So if I change the font here to Monera will do well, You will notice that the other captions also have become the same font. If you uncheck it, you can come to a single caption here, for example, and make it a different color, for example, red or black or something like this. I'm going to make it red. The previous one did not change. Only this one has changed. I'm going to undo and make sure apply to all is selected. Yet you can play a loss of tricks by styling each of the captions or some of them. Of course, you have all the things that you want, you can add the style that you want and go back to the default. That's the default. Besides styling, I think it's much nicer to use the templates. Now you have some awesome templates here and even animated templates. I'm going to take one that's not animated, like this one here, if I point at it, you notice nothing is happening. The one next to it, things are happening, I'll show you that in a second. I'm going to take this template and here you are. All my captions have changed to this templates because apply to all is checked and now I have much better captions without even doing any effort. If I select another one, this is blinking, I will select it. And I I play a bit, let's see what happens. It has an animation on the opacity here. It's pretty nice, pretty cool. Now there are better captions. Let me show you. If you come over to the Quick Brown Fox, this is how it's moving. Many are moving also, they have an animation. What happens when you select one like this? I will select this one. It's a bit small here. I'm going to come back to basic and take the font if it bigger. Wow, this thing is jumping. So five will do. If I will do. If I play now, is going to play the captions and make them dance and change here. That will be awesome for Karaoke. The guy doesn't know which word to say first, since they're moving up and down and they are really nice animation. It's really nice. It's easy to read also. I think so. Let's go back to template and select another template, which is somehow the same format, but they're not dancing around. On word at a time. You notice this template is one word at a time. You have a lot to play with here. I'll go back to the beginning, something I know. That's very nice. It's just making one line after the other. Now I can say no captions at all, and I'm back to the standard. These are the games you can play with the captions and nearly you can have very nice captions. I think I like this one. It's a bit small, let's go back to basic. Let's make it a bit bigger. It's going to dance. Yeah, it's dancing. Of course, you can put your captions in bubbles, if you want to, it's going to be stressful for the reader. For example, this one, if you like to, you can add the effect. Instead of putting templates, you can add an effect for the art here. Let's take this one. The effect, and then all of them because I have applied to all on. All of them have changed, and it's very nice, by the way. The two liners have two different colors. I will take it out from here and stick to my template. I want to go to this template, and one word at a time. You better read fast guys. This is about captions. In the next video, I will show you how to translate captions. 29. How to Apply and Customize Transitions: There are hundreds of transitions that you can use in CP cut. First of all, what is a transition? A transition is an animation between the video on the left and a video on the right. In between these two videos, you have a cut, so it's the cut in between the videos, and you apply transition in between to create a certain animation, and sometimes it's very beautiful and very necessary. For example, if I want to apply a transition just over here because I completed the subject. Here, I talked about whom, I'm going to start talking about how to grind your coffee or something like this. Then I can apply a transition on the cut just over here. This is the cut in between. This is the cut in between the video on the left and the video on the right. Before you start applying transitions, you need the clips to have handles. What are handles? If I take this clip up, remember we trimmed on the right just over here, and we trimmed it on the left. Handles are necessary to be able to make a mix between the two videos, the one on the left, and the one on the right. It will use this unused handles in the timeline. In our case, going to be these unused handles here, it's going to use them, I will trim it back and this unused handles here. To see it exactly, you can right click and say trim clip, And you notice on the left, you have the dark side, this is unused handles here that will be used by the transition and on the right, you have unused handles that the transition will use. If you put the clip in between two clips, you can apply a transition on the cut. CCAT will apply transitions only on the cut. You cannot apply a transition in the beginning of a clip. Now, there are very many transitions here, and you should use them with caution, depending on the subject of the video. It's funky, fun. You can use moto graphics, for example, or the split or whatever you like here. I'm going to go only for overlays. These are very serious transitions and very much used. There is the mix here that will mix the clip on the left with the clip on the right. There is black feed that is deep to black, and the white flash that is deep to white. And there are more here except the smoke, I won't use it. I'm going to go for the mix. To apply a transition, you simply come near the cut where you want to apply a transition, and simply you click on the plus. It will apply the transition to the nearst cut to the playhead. The playhead was near left, it will apply the transition here. Can come over and play your transition. Let's say I want to apply a transition on the right here, I will just click the plus, and you will go to the neatest cut to the playhead, and I have my transitions, which is awesome. If you decide that this is not the transition you want, it's not about selecting it, it's about positioning the playhead wherever it is, and then changing the transition. You click on the plus. This is the one that has been changed, and this is the white flash widely used. With some transition, you need to reduce the time. If you select a transition here, you can reduce time. Let's say something like this. Then if I play, the white flash works fast. Of course, every transition has its own tricks and tips, and it depends on your project on the seriousness of your project or how fun you want it. Remember, to change the transition is not enough to select it. If you select this one and change it like this, it's selecting the one on the playhead. Cool, I'm going to undo all this and have my two transitions just like this. This is the mix over here. Now, if you come over, you will notice that you can make the transition longer. You can also come over here and make it longer. It hits to 0.6 here. Then if I add another one just over here, for example, I'm going to take the mix again, I can make it a bit longer. This one went to 1.3 seconds. You might wonder why this 11.3 and this one, the maximum is 0.6. While it depends on the number of handles you have on the left and right, it works is magic and tells you, this is appropriate 1.3 or 0.6. Now, let's zoom out. So if I like this transition, and I want this transition to be on all the cuts over here. I can simply select the transition and apply to all, and it will apply it on all the cuts where it's possible to apply a transition, meaning where there are handles. Notice that, you cannot apply just like this here. You can't apply a transition over here. It's not possible because it's the beginning of a clip. It needs a cut and not the beginning of a clip, unfortunately. Now, after you apply to all, unfortunately, if you don't want, you have to delete each one of them just like this. Now, I can change this transition. I can select this one, come over here and change it to black smoke, for example. Now I can apply it to all. It will change all the transitions, if you notice, they are all now black smoke. Now, in theory, you will use two maximum three types of transitions within your project. Don't go ahead and add every single transition on your cuts here. I will not look beautiful. Two or three will look very fine and choose wisely according to the subject of your video. 30. How to Add Video Animations: When you talk about transitions, in Cupcat, you immediately think about animations, which in Cupcat are really awesome and can help you create some awesome videos. What are animations? You can select a clip in the timeline and the next video, you have animation here. If you selected, you have the in animation out animation and combo. This is out, this is combo. Let's go to the in animation and select one that is nice. I actually don't like the one that will show you some black here. I like the one that are just showing you the whole video. You can click and add the in animation as simple as this. If you play Of course, you don't need any handles. Nothing is playing on the frames within the timeline. You can select it again, go to out and add an out animation, for example, this guy here. Yeah, I like this. Unfortunately, I don't know why they're not equal to the in, but I think they will get around it. And this is our animation, very nice. Now you have the combo one. The combo is usually used without the in and out animation. But let's say you have the in and out animation, you can add another combo, which is an in animation playing in between an out animation. If I select this one, I'm not going to look good because I have two in animation. You notice, and then I have the out animation. This is not cool. The way to use the combo is to come to the in and remove it, come to the out and remove it and come to the combo here. Now my combo is over here. I'm going to adjust its duration. I'm going to take it to the beginning and till the end. A very nice one just coming in, and then it will zoom out. It's very cool animation. S out. You can apply it anywhere by the way to any clip, unlike transitions that you cannot apply on an independent clip on the timeline here, on a track. You can apply it another SY sway. Something else about animations you cannot apply to all. You can select one clip and apply the animation. If you select two clips using the command or control, for example, you notice that you don't have any animation. One more thing about steel images. Remember here we have a steel image, what you can do is selected and go to animation, and you have the combo and choose a nice combo that fits the image. For example, this one. Now you don't have a steel image. You have something that's quite animated. Go ahead, guys, come over to CPCAT and play bit, download some videos, and add some animations and find your best style. 31. How to Track video and Attach Graphic and Text: There, I'm very excited to show you the tracking within Cupcut. It is simple and easy but not extremely precise. In Cupcut, you can track a text, that's one, and also you can track stickers. We'll see both of them now. I will start with text here, so I will add the default text and come over to bubbles. There is a big chance that you are going to start tracking bubbles. Bubbles is very easy to use, just added, and this is the bubble here, it's just an effect here. You can change the bubble and do what you want. I'm going to take this bubble and come back to basic and change the text to lovely. The guy is seeing a lovely view here. Then in basic here, you can play with the font. Most of the time this font doesn't work is very stuck to the bubble itself. I'm going to make it smaller here and put it behind. The guy thinking, this is lovely. Usually you put it in front or on top, but you cannot rotate it here because it rotate also the text. But this will do for now as an example. Having the bubble in the timeline, I'm going to bring it to the beginning and take it as long as the video. Now if you play the video, of course, the guy will move and lovely is stable. Let's track it. I'll select the text from here and come to tracking. Here, you notice the option of tracking. If you select the tracking from here, you have this rectangle that can you position to what you want to track. And you can track according to both directions. The directions are about the timeline. This is backward, going to the left and this is forward going to the right. I prefer always to start from the beginning, so I can adjust it very nicely here. Now, you can track the scale, meaning if the object gets smaller within the video, the text that you're tracking will get smaller. This is tracking with the scale. Tracking with the distance is the distance between this little cross here and the center of the text here, whatever it is. This distance will remain fixed. It will move according to the person within the video. I'm going to start here and you'll not to see the rectangle is on top of his head. This is the tracking area, and the cross is the tracking point. I'm going to go ahead and start the tracking. Notice how the box has grown, it's trying to find the whole person, not only the head or a certain point, it's trying to find the whole person and track according to the person that is appearing in the video. You notice the distance is trying to be somehow constant and scaling down now, and in our case, scaling down was not right because the text now is very small, we can't even see it. It's not like every time you track is going to be exactly the same. From time to time, it's totally different depending where you put your rectangle here. The tracking is done, I will deselect from here and play. You'll notice that our lovely text is moving with the guy, even up and down, is moving according to his body movement and so on, and it's pretty cool, but now it's becoming very small and it's not tracking very well. Mainly, the scale tracking is not right. The scale tracking being not right, I'm going to select it again, go to tracking and remove the scale. Do not track the scaling. If the subject becomes smaller or bigger within the video, do not scale up and down the text. I'm going to rest the tracking. Notice now it has changed, it has taken the full person from the beginning, and it is tracking pretty fast. My computer is lagging because also I'm recording. Now, it's keeping the distance, as you notice, from the center of the text to the cross here, and the whole rectangle is moving around. Now, this is better tracking without the scaling. The tracking has completed. If I play it here, I di selected, let's deselect, I'm going to play it. Well, it's not bad at all, it's moving with the guy at 100% left right and up and down. Didn't get smaller. We removed the scale, if you remember, from here, we removed the scale, and we have very good tracking. If you are used to other software where you can adjust it a bit and come back and retra this doesn't happen. Notice here it didn't even move because it's tracked, I'm going to go back I will come over here and try to say, Okay, put it over here. Now, I put it over here for the whole track. Is not going to go and adjust it and you cannot adjust the position and track forward so you can make it 100%. No, The tracking doesn't work like this in CAPCAT. The only thing that happens is keeps this distance here at 100%. I'm going to play it now. And notice I increase the distance, but it is constant now with the tracking. I'm going to show you a nice strick here. I come over here and cut the text and come over here and cut again and cut again. I cut it in four pieces. Notice the tracking is still working though you have cut the clip because we have tracked before we cut. Now here I'm going to make it lovely and here, for example, he says, Wow. He likes the view so. Here, he's going to say, impressive, if I can write impressive. Well, it came as two words, I'm going to come over here. I noticed the front site will not do much. I can make the characters closer, not bad. The last one says, I love it, or love it. Now you have the same text, which is tracked four times. I'm going to adjust it to be near the ad here. Come back to tracking. I don't need to retrack. I still grade out. I play, and if we select, you have four texts. Of course, very nice, you can select this one, come back to bubble here and change completely the bubble. For example, let's take this one here. We have it on white. Let's go and change it to black. So you have four clips that have been tracked at once, and they can change. So this is very useful for your videos. You can do whatever you like. Now, there is another tracking that you can do is for the stickers. The stickers are awesome, you can use them, some of them are animated and so on. I'm going to show you one that you will really use is inside the cover up here, and you have this guy which is animated and this guy's a cover up the face. So I'm going to take this one and drop it just above here and align it. It's going to be everywhere. Let's come here in the beginning. Make it smaller. We don't need it as big as this. Just put it on his face. Make sure it's tracking his face. I'm going to come to tracking. So now we are in stickers, which shows one sticker. Come over and play with the stickers. They're very nice. There is nothing special about them. You can animate them, you can track. It's fun. I'm going to go to the tracker and notice my tracking is here, I'm going to put it over his head, something like this, or maybe we make it bigger, and put it just over here. And I will start tracking and I want the scale this time. Hopefully, it will work well, and I will track. Now, of course, the tracking is not the same for every video. It depends on the camera movement, it depends on the shot, it depends on the different of colors, and so on but in general, this is the tracking. Of course, this is not Da vinci resolve tracking or after effect tracking. It's just for short videos, quick and done. Trust the face here completely, and it's doing some other some funny job somewhere. Mainly, it lost it here because it couldn't see the face, it couldn't recognize anymore where is the face of the subject or where is the subject in its totality. But that will give you a good idea of what you can track and what you cannot track in C cut. So we did the tracking on a sticker and we did the tracking on text here and we cut it out. So this is how to do tracking in CP cut, and it's pretty easy. I'll see you in the next video. 32. Removing Backgrounds - Cutout your subject: Here. In this video, I will show you how to do cutout, meaning removing the background when you have a subject. This subject has to be a person with a face and anybody. This is what CCAT recognize the most. First of all, let's go and get a background. I'm going to take this background, which has 35 seconds. Then let's go back to Local and let's try out with this lady here. It's very nice. I'll put it in the timeline, and we want to remove the background here. The background of course, is uniform color here. To remove the background, you come to cut out, and you have two options, Auto cut out, that's what we are going to use, and chroma keying, Chroma king is removing green screen. I'm going to go for auto cut out, and it will do this job. Now it's doing it very fast with me because I've already done this and it is in my cache. So if you play now, you notice is quite cool. We lost her piece of hair, but not bad at all, and you might have some problems like just over here. You notice her face is eating up. Now, if you take the other guy, this guy over here and drop it in the timeline, select it, and then come to cut out and say, Auto cut out, it is almost perfect. We can take him down a bit, take him bigger. Something like this. If I play it, you will notice it is very well, there is no problem. The guy is not even moving. He's standing there. Now, let's take this guy over here who is walking around and so on. It's going to be quite difficult when there is similarity of color between the subject and the background. I will drop it in the timeline here, reduce the timeline a bit, come over and auto cut out. And it has cut it out not bad at all, but we will have certain problems when the colors are almost mixed with the background. No bad, in fact, no bad is very cool. Of course, you might want to choose a better background, and the guy now is floating on the water. That's very cool. If you select your subject here and in the cutout, you can add some lines or contour around the subject. You have different contours that you can add. It is nice, actually. If you're doing something personal, you're putting yourself there, you can reduce the size, you can make it a bit opacity. I find it very cool. What's really cool about it is that you can do it without any problem. You don't have a learning curve that's very steep to do all this. This is about cutting out the background and the next video, we will continue cutting out everything. 33. Removing Green Screen: If you have videos with green screen, it's very easy to remove them in cup cut. Let me show you how. For example, I have a video here that you will find in your download, I will drop it in the timeline here, and I want to remove the green screen. Obviously, you're going to come to cut out and instead of auto cut out, you are going to use a chroma key. Me Mind you that auto cut out here might work quite nice, in fact. I will undo it, cancel it, and come to chroma keying. And you have the color picker. The color picker is picking the color that you want to remove, and it has to be some green thing. Let's first of all, let's put it here, so I can show you. I will pick it and come over and decide where is the color. If you go over here, of course, you remove the lady, you removed her shirt now. You want to remove a color that will give you the maximum green. I'm going to return it above the background. I did a great job. You can increase the strengths, meaning you are going to remove even more green. And now she is almost transparent. You can see the beach behind her. That could be cool if you want that. I'm going to give it a strength. I think I will stop here. I don't have anything transparent. I will play it. It's almost 100% perfect. Let's do another example here. If you come to library, you can come to Green Screen, most of them are photos, but this one is interesting because I want to show you something else later on. I will click and drack and drop it in the timeline. In fact, let's remove this guy and just work on this. Now what I would like to do is to remove the green screen. I will select it, come to cut out, and this is a chroma key. I will pick it and just come over here, pick it again. That's fine. You notice if you put the background under, you are not going to see how the green is coming up. What you want to do is to move it out, work on a black background or even white background, and you notice I can see more green here. To remove them, you can increase the strengths. It's removing to the maximum. I think that's cool. We're going to add some shallow. Let's go back to the strengths. Some shallow here. I think it's cool. Fine. Let's put it up here. And you can see the background here. Actually pretty cool because it zooms in and you can see more of the background. This is about removing the green screen, and it's quite easy and you can use it with all kind of pictures and images, maybe, and they give you very good results without having to learn for 3 hours how to remove green screen. I'm going to show you something else in the next video is how to track a background behind a green screen. 34. Green Screen - Tracking and Replacement: We are b on removing the green screen from the TV over here. You'll notice that the video is not really great. The TV is coming up, but the video inside here is not cool. What should happen here is that this background should be small, just like this, covering a certain area, and it should be tracked to the TV. If you come over here and select the bottom one, you don't have tracking. So actually, you are going to track the one above. That's what we did before. You are tracking the foreground video to the background video, and this will not work as you start tracking the small tree here. What has to happen is that this one should be above and this one should be down for now. You are tracking, you notice you have tracking. You are tracking the small one to the big one. Actually, the concept is like this. The track above will follow the movement and the scaling of the truck below as simple as this. I will click on track here and adjust the area. That's important. I wanted to track the big TV here, as simple as this. This is the big TV is going to be tracked. We're tracking the whole screen of the TV. That will look good like this. We make it a bit bigger. I will scale. I want of course to scale up and I want the distance. I will start tracking here Now the tracking is complete. Of course, it doesn't make sense what you have done. We can see that the background video is really scaling up with the TV. Now we need to adjust them. I will select the bottom one and lift it up and then just inverse the old. Not now, it's very nice. Now going to go faster and is growing with the TV. It's very awesome. This is a small trick I want to show you, which I think is very important that you get to know how to track what. Thank you very much, and I will see you in the next video. 35. Color Adjustments/Correction: In this video, I will show you how to make your video pop up with nice colors and nice contrast. In every video, you select, you remember we had videos, speed, animation, and adjustment. This is about color correction or color adjustment. Let's make it simple. In CAPCOT is adjusting the colors. You select your video, of course, don't go like this and select the other video. Make sure that you are on top of the video, you're seeing the video that is selected. There are three adjustments that you can do here, the basic, the hue saturation and brightness, and the curves. Let's start with basic. The first adjustment that you have is the lot. This is lookup tables. This is to change the mood in a video, and this is represented here by filters that we'll see later on. We'll leave it aside. Adjustments. You have all kind of adjustment to do on colors. The first one are temperature, U, and saturation. So actually, you're trying to change the colors, you give them more temperature if you want. So this video went towards the reddish and yellow and towards the blue, which becomes a bit impersonal or a bit cold. You have the hue, so you changing the colors towards the purple, notice, and you're changing them towards the green. In between, you have the other colors. There is a saturation where you add the colors, mainly the red in this video or no color at all when the saturation is -50. So you have now a black and white video. The most important is the lightness over here. You can adjust the colors for your videos and really mi them pop out. You can play with the brightness contrast and so on and so on. I advise you to start with the contrast. But before you start with the contrast, try to open the color ooscopes here. I'm going to turn it on. Don't be intimidated by this chart here. It's about the colors. It's very easy to use. On the left is the left of the video. These are the colors on the left of the video. On the right is the colors on the right of the video. You going left to right and left to right. Whatever is the spreads are the colors. You have the luma, that's the white one. You have the red, green and blue. You can care less about all this. What you care about is on the upper side are the whites. On the lower sides are the blacks. You can interpret this by saying on the upper side is the lighter red or green or blue. On the lower side is the darker red, green and blue. You can interpret that. But let's go for whites on top and blacks on bottom, as simple as that. Now, I advise you to always start with the contrast and not the brightness because the contrast will open your colors. Notice how I'm taking the whites up and the blacks down. That's the business of the contrast. The whites went up, the blacks went down. What I want to achieve is to have the whites as high as possible, but not crushed and the blacks as low as possible, but not crushed. If I go too much with the contrast, notice, now I'm crushing the blacks here and the whites are not good. Obviously, the image is not good. I'm going to stop around maybe 20 Then you have the highlights. The highlights is about the whites on the upper side. Notice what it's going to do if I take the highlights up. In some videos, you need to take it down, but here I'm going to take it up. That's cool for me. Then you have the shadows, the shadows, is the blacks here. I'm going to take down the shadows. Usually, that's what you do. If you go up with the shadows, you're going to have a faded image. There will be no contrast and no blocks. And then here, you take them down, just like this. That's awesome. For the whites, now I have the whites. This is the pure whites on top here. I'm going to take them up just a bit. Notice this is crushing. Okay? You don't crush. You don't do that. So I take them up a bit. Actually here we did well with the contrast and the highlights. We don't need to touch the whites. But maybe one, two, Yeah, enough. You have the blacks? I want to take the blacks a bit down. I'm going to go for the number 01 chose, so I'm looking over here, they hit the bottom. That's very good. Then you have the elimination, not this elimination. For a positive value, it takes all the colors towards the whites, and a negative value will give you the colors towards the black. This is like you are e clibrating the colors if you want to. For this case, I think we are cool to be at zero. Yeah, I guess so. At zero. Now you have adjusted the colors. Remember, you start with contrast. Now you can come back and play with the brightness. If you want to make it more bright, you crushed all the colors, make it black, very black. O the brightness, you can play with it now. Decide exactly if you need any adjustment with it. I will go just a bit. L et's test. This is before, and this is after, quite a difference, and it's really awesome. Now you put off your ooscopes. I'm going to put them off, and I have a perfect image. This is after. This is before, quite an enhancement. Now I'm going to put it off so I can show you SSL. SSL is saturation and brightness. You select a range of colors, for example, the red, and you can increase them or decrease them. We're not having much difference here because the colors are very calibrated in this video. Now his beard is purple. Then you can take the saturation, increase the amount of color inside, make them a bit more darker if you want. And then saturation, you can take it down, remove a bit of the colors. The brightness you can go up, it brightens the reds. We selected only the reds, and then the brightness to take down, and we take down the reds. You can select another range of colors, for example, the orange colors and then do the same increase. The guy now has yellow fever, decrease or something like this. This is the saturation. Well, it's some work in SSL rarely used, but sometimes it can fix your colors at 100%. Most importantly, I'm going to reset this guy and go to curves. Curves are the go to, if you like. If you don't want to spend time in the basic going up and down with this, you can come to curves. The first curve is the luma. This is the brightness, if you want and the contrast all put together. You have the bar over here. Notice how it's diagonal, I can click on its top and take it to the left now. I have a lot of brightness everywhere. I can take it down, and I have a lot of blackness everywhere. Same I can do on the top one. This is no colors at all or very dark, and this is very bright, as easy as this. To make it simple here, all you want to do is to create a point, you come over when it's plus, you create a point here, and you create a point here. Over here are the dark colors, and over here are the white colors. To do it right, you can take the white colors up and you take the dark colors down. And it's almost done. You notice. I'm trying to choose the colors here, and this is the contrast, in fact. That's the contrast. This is the brightness here, and you can adjust it. You can play with the graph, you can add more points and mess it up, make it nice and so really, you can do whatever you like, depending on what you want. Cool. I'm going to remove these points. That's it. If I remove before and after I already adjusted at 90%. Now I'm going to reset this guy and come to the red. Remember here we used the brightness or the luma. We work with general colors in terms of brightness and darkness. In the red, we are going to do the same. We are going to use the red colors only. You can go left and only red go down and you can see no red, it went towards the Con. If you use this guy, you go Con, and then this guy go red. Actually, you want to create another S here. Don't break your brains, do color correction, and you want to create something just like this. It works sometimes only with the red. No I'm adjusting the red. Not very practical, but for really good videos, you could use that and you have the green which is the same. Actually, if you want to have really popping colors, you come to basic and adjustment on, you start with the contrast and here you are. You have a lot of brightness here. I'm going to reduce it a bit. I'm going to take it down here minus one, two, three. That's cool. Well, I did very well. I was talking to you. Now, of course, hopefully, your monitor is a bit calibrated for colors, so you're not looking at green and it's really reality. It is red. Try to calibrate your colors, and the rec 79, if you remember, this is the rec 79. My screen is set to rec 709, so I'm seeing almost perfect colors. I hope the recording is showing you also perfect colors. After doing adjustment for a video, you can save it as a preset. You can use this preset for other similar videos. It is uploading now in adjustment presets. No, I'm in adjustment, I am in preset. Now I can take this adjustment and put it in the timeline. In this case, now I have two adjustments. It doesn't look good at all. I will select the video and remove the adjustment from here and only work with the adjustment clip here that is on the track. It is adjusting the video. I can put it off, and the adjustment will disappear, put it on. The adjustment here will adjust all the videos under. That could be very useful from time to time if you shut all your videos in the same environment with the same camera surely with the same camera. If you don't like it, you can just delete it and make sure that you put back your adjustment here. Thank you, guys. This is about color correction or adjustment of colors in cp color. 36. Create a special mood and look for your videos: They are mods and filters and they are very important to create some awesome videos or some very original and very abnormal videos. Also. In CPCAT, you have the ability to do color grading. That is changing the mood, changing the look of your videos. Now we have very simple looks here that are not really interesting. They are just simple. You can come to filters and you have hundreds of filters that you can apply. Each filter will change the mood and the look of all your videos. Usually, you don't put that on a video. You'll put it on the timeline and expend it to all or most of your videos, depending on the games you want to play and depending on the impression that you want to give. Some movies will apply the grading or the filters during day. The bright colors and sun during night, it's very darkish and sun. If they want to represent another country, that will make it a bit greenish, a bit grayish, for example. They change the mood and the looks of their videos. You have very many filters that you can apply to your timeline or to your videos. Some of them are very nice. Note the tan here, if I click on it, it's going to tan my video. Now it's more mysterious and something like this. You can play with this a lot. To apply the filter, you can click and drag and drop it on a video, and that will be very bad because it's stuck to the video and actually you cannot even adjust it or do anything about it. I'm going to undo. I will click and drag and drop it in the timeline just anywhere here. You notice has created a new track, and this is the filter truck here. Now, the next thing to do is to extend it for all your timeline or to extend it to a piece, and then maybe you add another filter here depending on what you're doing up to here, and then add another filter at the end. Now, I don't know the results, but just to show you let's see. Over here, we have the tan and it looks good. This is with the time, this is without the tan. I changed completely, the mood is darker and more red and stories like this. Over here, you can see even the greens, the brown, and this is without it it. Let's go to holiday. Here, the mood has changed completely. I I put it off and on, you notice the colors are brighter, the mood has changed. This is more exciting, more life. The umber, I'm going to remove it and put it back, it's really quite nice. I could run my video just like this, changing from one filter to another. Or I can have one video on my timeline on all my clips. This is the way to do it. Now we can add more filters if you want on this one. I doubt you will have an effect, not much because they will clash merely. This is the way to add your filters and change the mood of your video. Let me show you, for example, I'm going to go to style here. And these styles are very interesting, very nice. If you're doing a funky video, something exciting, or you're telling a story, and let's try one of them. I'm going to click and drag and drop it here, extended to certain number of videos. And everything is Teal or Can yeah, I think so. I can take another one and change the colors here. Now I'm playing because I love these things and extend it. I moved from the day where I tell a not so sad story to something very impersonal story here. It's getting very cold with the blue. Let's make it warm. We're going to stop here and take something very warm, for example, this guy and drop it here. And here you are, you went from very cold to very warm. You know, I'm sure you've seen movies like this. The only parameter that you have here is the strengths. For example, for this pumpkin here, you can reduce the strengths. It's not applied at 100%, is applied, for example, at 50%. This is your choice. The filters here, there is no rule. It is not about color correction and getting it perfect. It's about creating a mood and you want the mood of your video. In my case, I'm doing coffee cup. It's not much of a mood, but still I can work and I give it a lifetile one. For example, I don't know one of these, in fact, the ten has worked very well. I'm going to put it here, put off the lower one and actually extend it. I find it quite good for my video. It's very nice, and the videos work very nice not to see. This was about filters about creating mood, about creating a certain look, and it's up to you now to come over and go through the hundreds of filters that you have here and put the best for your videos. 37. Video Effects : Style and Enhance your Videos: When you're doing videos in CPCut, you want to use the effects, and they are very beautiful and very nice, and they only exist in CPCut. You are not going to find them in this abundance in other software. I promise you. If you come over to effects, this effects here, you have video effects and you have body effects. For now, we're looking at video effects. You can select any category, for example, the retro, the love one. I like the love one. They're very nice, and you can drop a timeline, just click and drag or click on the plus or drop it inside the video. If you drop it inside the video, it is going to be inside the video here. If you deselect, you can select it, you not a special effect here, you click on it, it has selected the effect. Actually you can trim the effect not to be the whole video. You can do something like this, and then you can play it, so the hearts will appear here and then stop. There not showing hearts here, but somehow. Now you can select another effect and also drop it on the video here. Now you have two effects on this video. If I click out and click on the effect, it will ask me which one you want to edit. I say, I want to edit this one here, and this is the short one, and I can come to its parameters here, it's details, change the atmosphere, for example. Change the filters, change the speed if I want to. I'm going to make it as big. Then I can also click again and select the Girls secret. That's the hearts here. I can play bit with it also. I think this is the heart, yes. Here you are. You have your effects. Now, I do not like to add the effects over here because I might want to use them for other videos also. I select an effect and delete. As simple as this, you click. You have your effects selected, you press delete, it goes away. A better way is just to click and drag and drop it on the timeline. That's my favorite way. Then I can see the effect over real. I'm not looking for it inside the videos. This is the effect on top of the video. I can take another effect, for example, the rainbow and drop it also. I have two effects now that I can see very clearly. You have this effect radiating hard. This is the pixeled one and you have the other one here. Now, effects don't have to be for the whole timeline, not at all. You can select them and shorten them and put them as long as you want for the context you're in. Obviously, I'm making coffee and these s don't work, so I'm going to delete this and try to find, for example, light effects or retro, Retro will work cool with me. Now, notice the representation in Cup cut is very interesting. If you select this guy here, for example, it's framing. It's not to be used with coffee. Maybe you'll use it for something else. I have another one here, which has some glitches stories. You have the distortion effects, and you can play all the time with this effects. That's an interesting one. I don't know where you would use it. Then you have the opening and closing effects. You have the diamond, so it opens, and here you are. I'm going to drop it in and do like this. In fact, I'm going to do like this. Notice this is going to be pretty nice, notice how it went down. Very nice effect, actually. You can play with it with its parameters here. You can increase the horizontal, increase or increase the strength, rotate it and size it if you want to. That's pretty nice, by the way, and you can speed it up. I'm going to go for this speed. Then I'm using it as an intro, very nice effect. Cool, guys. This is about effects. Come over. Go to FX and try to go through the hundreds of thousands of effects that are here and decide which one you want to use for which video. It's very interesting and really, you can find only this in CC. 38. Body Effects: Style and Enhance your Videos: L et's go through the body effects. I'm just showing you here. I'm sure you can do that by yourself, but they're really amazing. I'm going to take one of them, which is in trending and just click and I see the effects in the monitor. I can add it to the timeline. Of course, you notice these effects, you will add them to a video. You can put them inside the video if you want to or put them on the timeline. I will go always for the timeline. This is the distorting whatever. And really, it cut out the background and now it's rotating the background. Of course, for each video, they will have a different kind of effect here. Your choices are to put it on the video or on the timeline. I like very much the funny faces. No, not this one. The background. The background here are really amazing. I'm going to take it and drop it on the timeline and test it on three videos, and it's looking quite nice. Change the background at this. We know now she is in a disco, and this guy is looking at her you have the superpowers. Actually, the superpowers are very nice. Let's apply some on this guy. Let's make him glow, for example, I'm going to put it just here. Now he's glowing from his eyes, from everywhere, his body is glowing. These are the body effects and you apply them exactly like the video effects. 39. How to create a Cover/Thumbnail with a Video Frame: Before you start exporting your videos, you want to create a tub nail within Cupcat. In CPCt, a ub nail is called a cover, and then you will find it on the left of the main track you have here cover. You click on the cover and you can start creating it in three ways. The first one is to select a frame from your video, for example, this one, or go local, meaning you will upload a thub nail over here, or you select a new and you start with a blank CVA. If you want to select from the video, it's better to remove at least the captions. For example, I'm going to go cancel, put off the captions, and all the rest, I'm going to put them off because I want only the video. I'll go back to cover, and here I have nothing now. I can work with the raw video. That is cool. For example, if you decide on this frame, this is going to be your thub nail or your cover. You can just select it. You can use the arrows left and right to determine the right frame that you want. I'm going to select edit now. The cover design will open and you have your image as a layer over here. You have a background and you have the image as a layer. Of course, you're going to add many layers for text and so on. Now, when you select this image, immediately, you have the filters, and you can select the filters that you like. For example, N. You can come to effects and add some effects. Some of them are very nice like this bubble here. Or you can add the mirror, so nobody sees your video, then we are going to put at none. You can remove the background. If you have a person here, now that will be nice. Of course, it's an image, I will do a good job. In our case, it's useless to remove the background because we'll have the cups here and we have something here that will not work very well. But you can go ahead and try it and remove the background. Now when it comes to adjust, that's awesome provided here, because here you have the color adjustment for your background image here. You can change the colors the way you would like. And then of course you have opacity. Now opacity doesn't make much sense now because we have only two layers. But later on, if you have many layers, it might make sense on some of the layers. Of course, you have to arrange, so you put them on top, left, which one is forward or backward, you can play with that. Now, when it comes to the background here, I can select the background, and you notice have the background button. I can click on it, I can change the color of the background the way I like. For example, let's pick this one and we come over to the layer, the image, we go to opacity, we can reduce it, and we have our background here, which is somehow cool. Now, this is the image. It's true. We put that background image, but you can still change it. Come over to replace and you have the choice, you replace it from the video or your computer. I'm going to select from the video and change it to whatever I want. I'm going to cancel to keep the same image here. You can also crop it, you can duplicate it and you have a menu here that tells you what you can do. Locking it is pretty cool. Now you have your background image, you want to go to the templates or the design and all the rest, so you can add some text. Now, usually, I like to add my text from the template. I select a template, for example, this template here. You will notice my background image is still here. It has been cropped, and I have some texts and so on. If I don't like this one, I just click somewhere else, and I have this template. Now I notice I'm not getting the background image of this template. I'm just getting the style. If I come over here, I have apply theme only. Let's take this example. Apply theme only. It will apply the theme, meaning it has changed the font and the color of the font. If I come over to the three dots here, let's take something this one, for example. If I climb to the three dots, that will be a menu, I will open it. Now, I can select the theme for the text and the theme for the font. Let's change the fonts here. Let's change the colors. Change the bit, or I can use the template and here you are. You can change it now the way you would like. I don't like it at all. I'm going to do and do again, and let's apply this one. That seems nice. Here you have what we call a frame. That is a frame, a mask that you put on the video here. I'm going to undo again, go back to my original remove this text from here. Now, after you're happy from your background template, you can also lock it. I'm going to lock it, and you can go to design. Later on, I will show you a bit more how to work with this template. You can come to design. The design here is very simple. It's suggesting to you a color scheme and a font scheme. You can click on it, and it will apply a title subtitle embody. Actually, these are different. And then I can select the title here, put it over here, the subtitle, put it over here, and the text here. Now, of course, whatever I selected now does not work with my background image. I'm better off using some other ones that are cool for me, for example, not the green. This one will work. I have a title with a certain font. I have a subtitle and a body text, so you can write whatever you want from here. The main concept here is to select a color scheme and a font scheme. You have a text here, you can go to the basics here and change the text the way you want. We already went through that. You also have some presets that you can use. The not all of them here. Some of them are here, but this is already a start. You can change that. Now I'm going to select them and just delete. Now, of course, you can have a theme only for the fonts and a theme only for the colors. You set up your text and you change the themes the way you would like. In the next video, I'm going to show you how to work with templates. 40. How to create a Cover/Thumbnail from a Templates: Previously, we started by selecting a frame from the video. Now I'm going to show you something else. In fact, I deleted the other one. I'm going to new. New will open a totally blank Canva, and this is very interesting. Now within the Canva here, if you select a template, this one, for example, it will not only give you the text and the fonts and the colors, but also will give you the background image. I find that very interesting because I have an image here, and hopefully nobody in the world ever used the same image. Of course, you can replace it, I will not do that because if you select from video, it will always keep that frame from your video. Now, you can decide to go for certain categories here. You have the recommended, you have food. If it well down this arrow, you will see you have other categories that you can work with. I'm going to go for food. This is our theme. Now if I click on another template, it will also give me the background. So let's say you like this template, you like the background, but you don't like the kind of font you have. You prefer, for example, this font here. If you click on the applied theme only, that's the kind of drawing story. If you click on it, it will not change the background, but it will change the font over here. I will not do that and take the three dots here. You notice here you have a color theme and a text style. It's going to style my text again. I will apply it and the text style, but not so much. I will apply the colors now. Here my colors have changed. If I like that, I can go for that. Nevertheless, here you have a stroke that you can adjust the way you would like. For example, take it back to zero. This one also the stroke, we can take it back to zero, if you don't want the stroke. The shadow and so on, will remain. If I don't like all this, all I have to do is to select another one. Sometimes the image will not clod immediately. It takes time for it to download. Be patient a bit. Now that is awesome, including the guy is awesome. If I was doing something here, I will just change the name instead of recipe for pizza recipe for a coffee cup. But that doesn't work, but it's awesome. I'm going now to go for my coffee theme. Let's find something interesting. Before the coffee, let me try this one because I haven't seen it before, and I will wait for the image. This is amazing. Amazing food preparation. Really nice. All you have to do is put yourself here not this guy. I will be awesome. I will continue looking for coffee. I found the first one that I like. I'll click on it, and here you are hopefully it will download the image before we go to sleep. It's taking very long. Let's move on and take black coffee here. This is very nice. And really, this is my theme. I'm done, but I don't want black coffee. But there are nicer ones, for example, this one here, is downloading pretty fast. Actually, this is my theme. I'm going to select the background. I like it very much, and there is an effect that's very nice here, which is called bubbles. If you add it, it will take whatever there is light and create some circle around the light. You can come over to the effect and adjust it, for example, reduce the size. This is too much, and something like this, I think we do. I like this one very much. Instead of delices, I will be writing perfect cup of coffee. Of course, I can adjust it the way I want. L et's come back here. You go and this one we want to make it smaller. Something like this, possible. Yes, take it down, and that's pretty cool. I can simply save. And this is your cover. Now, when I export the video, this is the Tub net that will appear on YouTube, on TikTok, and even on my drive here, if I click on it, this is what's going to appear, and this is very convenient. Now there are several options that I want to show you within the cover, and we'll tackle this in the next video. 41. More about Cover/Thumbnail froma a Templates: You can edit back your tub nail or your cover by clicking on it, simply, it will open the cover design. You can start working again, you have everything as before. I want to show you, for example, the shape. That's very interesting. You can add all kind of shapes if you add a rectangle here in it to the corner and just stretch it just like this. You can give it a color white, for example. You can come to the stroke style and add the stroke. You can come over to the fill color, and don't put a fill. You have a border here that is black, and I will go back to stroke and change it to white. Now you have this fancy fancy border if you like these things. You can come back to the stroke stile and give it some corner. Now notice the layers here. This is my coffee layer. This is perfect. This is the rectangle. I can just select it, right click and say delete. I removed it here. And you have your stickers here. You can add any kind of sticker, for example, the bottle here. You can add it here, make it bigger. This is vodka. Let's remove it. And then you have your frames. Now, the frames are very interesting. I like them very much. From all these, the irregular shapes, if you selected, you can take any shape from here. For example, a corner shape. I will click and drag and just drop it here, and then make it bigger, something like this, snapping, even bigger. This is a frame and it will act as a mask. I can come back and select an image that I will add inside the frame. So select from video, I will come to this frame, that cool, save it, and here it is, this close this guy. Here it is, you have your image inside the frame. So that's very interesting and very much used on YouTube and TikTok. Of course, you have to be more creative than what I've done now, so you can create something awesome. I will delete it. I have to delete it again. I will come to the layer right click and delete. You have the collage. Now, the collage is a whole story here, and it's very interesting if you want to do that. I have seen many collage like four. Let's add a two because it's a long work. I'm going to add the collage here. In the collage, you have the style, you have the tight, medium, loose and more custom and you can make the separation in between the collage. Of course, if you had four of them, there will be also a vertical separation here. Now, how to work with the collage. Unfortunately, you have to look at this blue line because I'm going to select inside it. I know I selected inside it. I selected this piece. There is here the plus for an image. I can go select from video, for example, I'll select this one and save it here and you notice this is my collage just over here. I can select the second one and go to the plus here. Select from video and go select, for example, this one. And save. Now I have both of them, and it's looking very complicated, of course, because we have also a background. I will select the collage, which is over here and deleted. Come over and create a nonesome thub nail. You notice that has become very easy game now to create your thub nails using the templates. You can borrow from a template or use the whole template like I've done here. 42. Checking for Pro Options before export: Let's say you are working on the free version, so you don't have any pro options available for you. You want to export your video and you are not sure if you have used any pro versions. Don't worry, there is a workaround of this and it's very simple. What I've done here is to log out completely. That will be using the free version. If you come to export now to export your video and you click on it, since I'm working on the free version, it tells me you are using the following pro features and material. I have pro features, enhanced voice, I have also pro material, that is the formatting of the captions here. First of all, in the pro features and in the pro material, if you have the free here, it will work for you. Not for long, later on, they will remove it, but you can still export with a pro feature that is free. If you want to remove the pro feature, that's very easy. You come to check and editor here. You click on it, and it'll show you the clip where you have used the pro feature. Over here, you can see it very well. It's enhanced voice, it's free, I can keep it, or I can simply so I remove this pro feature. I will come back to export, select the second one, and also do the same, remove it, come back to export, and select this one and also remove it area. I'll go back to export and I have here a pro template. This is for the captions. I'm going to click on the check in editor. Let me show you one of them. I know I've used the pro template. You can change it, for example, to this one, if you like or any other one that you like. Now we removed it and we have applied to all, and then we go back to export, and here you are, you are ready to export. In the next video, I will explain to you everything about the export options. 43. How to export a high quality video: Now that you have finalized all the editing and you created a nice cover, you can export your video. Let's come to the Expode, which is on the top right here. You click on it. The first thing you see is edit cover. Are you sure from discover? Is a fine. Discover is okay. I worked on it, and you want to have a title here. This title is mainly for you, how it's going to be saved. Make sure it's relevant to you. You can select the folder where you want to export. And I'm happy with CPC training just over here. I will click Open. Now, you remember how we set the details within the project. These are the same details that we set here. We say ourselves some work and we work systematically and with conformity of what we wanted. Yet you can come over to the resolution and change the resolution. Never go two k and four k if you worked on 1920 by 1080, because it will pixelate your videos. The Brate, leave it to recommended because all of them, all the social media will play with this one, so the trimming is perfect. The Codec h264 is very good. That will give you a compact video with a lot of clarity. HEVC is meant for mobile, give you a very compressed video, but somehow the clarity will be very good on mobiles. Now you have the Apple Pres here. This is mainly for me, if you are on windows, maybe you have AVI and stories like this. These are a bit high quality with very much high space for uploading and streaming. Now you can export your audio. So we have video exporting. And export audio. When you check export audio, it will export an audio file for you next to your video file. You can select MP three, Wave AC. Wave is very good if you want to use the audio somewhere else. If it is to send it to your friend or family, MP three will be okay, but, of course, is not as good quality as wave. MP three is fine. Now, run a copyright check. Yes, you run the copyright check. Unfortunately, we don't have a minute here. We should be more than 1 minute to do it. I will go for export and it takes some seconds here to bring me to the second screen of Export. Actually, it has already exported my video and is showing me my video over here. But then there is the option here to have a vertical video from your video. This is not about changing the size only, but also it moves the camera, so the subject or subjects are always in the center of the view here. You wait for it to complete and then you can select this option. This option, you can use it to approach to TikTok or YouTube later on. It will be saved in my location that's on my hard drive. Let's open our folder and see exactly what it has done. In the folder here, it has created a folder CCAP training export. That is the name of my video. Inside here, you have three files. One is the cover, do GPE. Of course. If you want, you can open it in photoshop, start working on it. I'm joking. You can just edit it from here. And you have the MP three, so you can play with the MP three, use it in other videos, and you have the MP four that you are going to use to export if you did not share. If I double click here, it will open it. You will not it will start with my cover. This is the cover. And then when I press play, it will start playing. Maybe are we completed and we exported. If you decide to share it, then you will add the title here. You will add the visibility that you start with private, then later on, you can make it public. Maybe you can enable command, do it, and stitching, whatever you like. You can do that, and then you will click on the share. It will go to TikTok in this case because it was selected, you log in, and it will alod, very easy. Fine. I will cancel here, and I will tell you, thank you very much. I hope you like this project, and I hope we did a good job together. 44. ***** Assignment - Create Cover and Export: Your final practice is to create a tab nail. Or design a perfect cover. Make sure you do a better job than I have done. If the theme is coffee, fine, but you can do your own theme, then, of course, you want to export and applaud your social media, your favorite one. You can piss the link somewhere in the Q&A or something like this. I can have a look at the video and give you what I think. I will critic your video, and all the people enrolled in this course will also have a chance to look at your work and admire it. So go ahead, please create the cover export, and then applaud to social media.
