CapCut Tutorial for Beginners Class 13: Add Video Effects in Capcut | English

Hello everyone, welcome to Class 13.

In today’s class, we are going to learn how to add fake effects to your videos in CapCut.

By “fake effects,” I mean things like shake effects, blood effects, blur effects, and more.

Step 1: Import Your Video

1. Import your video into CapCut.
2. Remove the watermark as the first step: tap on it at the end and delete it.

Step 2: Decide What Effect to Add

• Watch your video and choose where you want the effect.
• Example: when a person raises their finger, you want a shake effect at that moment.

Step 3: Apply Effects

1. Go to the Tools panel → tap Effects → select Video Effects.
2. You’ll see many effect templates. Choose one to apply.
3. For Shake Effects:
4. Type “Shake” in the search bar.
5. Tap on the desired shake effect to apply it.

Step 4: Adjust Effect Settings

• Tap on the applied effect to adjust:
• Speed → controls how fast the effect moves
• Intensity → controls how strong the effect appears

Tip:

• For realistic results, keep speed moderate and adjust intensity to match the video action.

Step 5: Position the Effect

• Hold the effect and drag it along the timeline to align it with the action (e.g., when the finger goes up).
• To apply the effect to:
• Main Video → only the current clip
• All Video → all clips in the project

Tip: Use layers to precisely control the timing and position of each effect.

Step 6: Apply Multiple Effects

• You can apply different effects in different parts of the video.
• Example:
• Shake effect at the finger movement
• Blood effect after the impact
• Focus effect on the action

Important: Don’t add effects randomly; use them only where they enhance the video.

Step 7: Final Check

• Play the video and ensure effects appear exactly where you want them.
• Adjust speed, intensity, and duration if needed.

Closing Notes

• Adding effects carefully can dramatically enhance your video.
• Random or excessive effects can make the video look messy or boring.
