Production Blog: Using Capcut

For my editing process, I used the same editing app that I used  for my commercial. Which is capcut. The first thing that I did was open a new project and added all my clips that I filmed. I then imported and screen recorded the music I was going to use and then added it into the video. For my editing I started from the very beginning of the song and went in order in editing the scenes. The first scene I edited was the beginning scene of where she is sitting on the floor against her bed and looking at her phone when her boyfriend broke up with her over text. What I did first was line it up with the music and trimmed it. I then added text over the video. I added the song name and used text effects and then added another text that said music video. The next scene is the over shoulder shot of what she is texting on her phone while sitting against the bed. For this scene I added the text message bubble overlays on the sides of the screen since it was hard to see what she was texting on the phone because of the quality of the video. For the left overlay I did a fade in effect and added typing text effect of what the person said. For the next text overlay I did  a effect where the overlay came from the bottom to the screen  to the middle of the overlay with also the same typing text effect. Then for the next scene I used a zoom in transition to transition to the next scene. The next scene I edited was her walking during the day and texting on her phone again. The purpose of this scene is to show how she's still waiting for her ex to answer her and trying to figure out why she broke up with her. For this scene I also did a over the shoulder shot which was also another scene of texting her ex again. I edited it the same I edited the other over the shoulder shot of her texting. I put text overlays again on the side of the screen of what she was texting. And then used a blur effect to transition it to the next scene.
