Editing & Capcut Features

 


Hey bloggers! Welcome back. I have some new information to share with you all. I've been exploring Capcut and familiarizing myself with its features. While I haven't started editing yet, I wanted to delve into the app's capabilities. I've used Capcut for other projects and videos in the past, so I'm familiar with its basic functions. However, I hadn't previously explored all of its options and features.

The app's basics are easy to grasp, and I find them more helpful compared to iMovie, which is limited to Apple devices. Capcut offers features that enhance the editing process. One feature I discovered is the video stabilizer, which can correct minor shaking in footage, resulting in smoother, more professional-looking videos. Additionally, I've changed my camera settings to 4k - 60, which complements the stabilizer and improves video quality.

Another feature I'll be utilizing is the cinematic mode on my phone's camera, which keeps the main subject sharp while blurring the foreground and background. This feature allows for adjustments to depth (blurring effect) and exposure, enabling me to film in various lighting conditions. I can also use the flash and zoom in or out, similar to regular recording mode.

The primary reason for using my phone for recording is its cinematic mode, which simplifies editing since all footage will be on my device, eliminating the need for file transfers that can lead to loss of quality or focus.

That's all for today! Stay tuned for the next update!

  Hey everyone! We're back with another update, this time taking you behind the scenes of the editing process for our Final Task project. After filming wrapped up on Fort Lauderdale Beach (those summer vibes are coming in strong!), it was time to turn all that footage into something magical. The first step involved gathering all the clips from my amazing group members. We created a shared album to make it easy, and then it was game on! Instead of jumping straight into fancy title cards, I decided to focus on building a solid foundation. Think of it like laying the groundwork for a house – you wouldn't decorate before the walls are up, right? So, I started by creating a rough cut of the entire Final Task. This meant going through all the footage, clip by hilarious clip, and weeding out any bloopers, shaky bits, or anything that just didn't quite fit the flow. Let's just say there were some interesting outtakes that didn't make the final cut! Once I had a clean, cohe...

  Hey bloggers. As of right now, we're trying to figure out what we're going to do and how we'll plan for our music video. We won't have costumes that stand out but most likely an outfit that would match well with the original music video. When it comes to where we might film, our options are either school or scenes to represent a "city". For example, many tall buildings. Places with a lot of people and colors. I do have work and Alyssa usually has to watch my brother after school so it's going to be a bit tricky to find an exact time but we are talking about it and trying to make it work. Eventually, we will find some time that is convenient for both of us. The only "props" that we'd use in a sense would be our phones to record but I'm not so sure that would be considered a prop. Other than that, we don't really have "props" that we'd use but we are going to talk it over the next time we see each other. Now, if there is...
