Like for Premiere, Comment for Capcut

[kynnmaster_]

Capcut is like for people who don't like learning too much hard stuff about editing and learning it in a fast and easy way. And bonus point, it's for free!

[rudramukherjee]

It doesn't matter which software you use. All these are tools which you can leverage. Afterall it's your skills that matter. Most people even won't notice.

Hats off to the generosity of CapCut team! 🎉

I personally do edits with capcut pc and I am in love with that, it is more optimized as well as has easy to use interface, the effects, the transitions, the animations are on another level, I never used premire pro but we cannot deny the fact that softweres like premire pro and after effects need high level skills, yes, and also some more computing power as well as expense, long story short, capcut is good for short badass videos but for long impressive project, premire pro takes the win

as a capcut editor, my first time trying premiere pro, i was so confused how to use it. but when you get the hang of it, you can make great videos.

edit: i hate having to add so many plugins, better off preinstalled.

I have been using Cap Cut for a few months to edit my page. At first, I was very satisfied with the page, but after a few months, my work became a little difficult because I could not do what others do, and I started to learn Premiere and after effect.
Meanwhile, my friend who is proficient in after effect and primer, he do 80% of my work his Cap Cut because of the ease of working with Cap Cut.

So we conclude that primer is more professional and cap cut is easier✌

Despite all its free features and great easiness, don't forget this thing: Rendering Time. When I render 2GB footage for my YouTube channel, it needs 4-7 hours to render using Premiere Pro. But using CapCut desktop, it needs less than ten minutes. Here's my old PC: i5 4th gen, 8GB of RAM, SSD, GeForce GTX 750ti. I've been using CapCut for a month. And I must say: Good Bye Premiere Pro and thanks for accompanying me for years.

The thing i like in capcut is shakes !!! They are the thing that haunts me the most in after effect and premiere pro..imagine making those capcut shakes it will take so much time while in capcut its just a click

Interesting, never even thought much about capcut until this vid. I think for basic editing for things like vlogs, short-form content and stuff that isn't necessarily "complex" CapCut seems to be the way to go. IMO, programs like After Effects/Premiere and Da Vinci Resolve will always reign supreme when it comes to long-form motion graphics-based content. Always good to see competition against Adobe lol

[thabreez]

One thing about capcut which I still don’t understand is how quickly it renders even stuff like heavily edited 4k or 2k footage renders pretty much instantly on desktop (can’t say that about premiere and capcut’s mobile app) and I have a pretty low end pc too but the capcut have uncovered some forbidden magic to make it render that fast.

I’m all in for Premiere + After Effects. CapCut for me is way too limiting, but in After Effects you can literally do anything.

Switched from Capcut to Resolve a few months ago. Capcut was beautiful in its simplicity and it helped me get into video-editing. However, Resolve has more tools, and is also free. I’ve never made videos that look this good. But yeah, screw adobe so team Capcut!!

I have been using premiere pro around 3 yrs to edit Instagram car reels. It's absolutely a professional editor. And nowadays I'm just trying capcut. And it's not bad. But capcut have limitations

[ZnamManz]

The real question is.. what editor did u use to edit this video?

[Taran_Bali]

I just used Capcut last week and my mind was blown haha. Only thing I couldn't figure out was how to copy clip attributes to another clip like crop and color etc.

[rZoro-]

as a full time capcut editor, there r many other things in capcut that....ik that there r pre made shakes but u can also add many of those effects, animations, overlays etc to make a single shake by urself...same is the case with effects, text, cc quality...most of the ppl using capcut r usually beginners only and they become intermediate at editing, they shift to apps like pr, davinci resolve, ae and all, but if u apply ur skillset and intelligence on capcut, u will realize the potential of this app.ik that this app may not be as good as apps like ae and all but there is only a bit diff

[markshirley]

Im a basic level FCP user - Im thinking of getting Capcut pro for short videos, thanks for the video helps to make the decision wether its worth pursuing

[AAvfx]

Just to let you know, normalizing the audio can boost the audio levels but keep the high ones intact to create an AGC (Auto gain control) for the entire video. Good luck

I did use few different video editing software over the years, probably not the major one. But recently I have been using CapCut and really enjoying it. The layout is super intuitive and organised. There are a lot of features that are easy to find like filters, animation, all the editing tools and cool AI features like auto captions is mind blowing. Really easy to use and super happy.
