- Import clips shot in good light.
- Arrange on the timeline; cut dead air.
- Add captions for sound-off scrolling.
- Use simple transitions not every effect at once.
- Balance music under voiceovers.
- Export in high resolution; keep originals.

FAQ
Is CapCut only for TikTok?
No export to Reels/Shorts too.
Do I need a computer?
Phone app is enough to start.
Will templates make me look generic?
Use lightly; customise captions and footage.
Learn CapCut as cut, caption, and clean export not as an effects carnival. Clear story beats fancy transitions every time.
