Video editing is a powerful tool for creating engaging content, and one of the most magical features you can use to enhance your videos is the keyframe. Keyframes allow you to add cool effects, such as zooms, pans, and rotations, between certain parts of your videos. Many people may not realize that this functionality is available in CapCut. In this blog, we will walk you through the steps to add keyframes in CapCut on desktop easily. Check out the video!
Introduction
Hello everyone, welcome to the channel! Today we’re going to talk about adding keyframes in CapCut. Keyframes are like magic wands that give you the opportunity to do amazing things between specific parts of your videos. Whether it’s zooming in, panning across, or rotating an image, keyframes can help you create stunning effects. Let’s dive in and see how you can add keyframes to your videos using CapCut on desktop.
Getting Started: Logging into CapCut
The first step is to make sure you’re logged into CapCut. Note that this guide is for the desktop browser version of CapCut, but the same functions should be available in the app as well.
- Log into CapCut: Open CapCut in your browser and log in to your account.
- Navigate to Your Workspace: Once logged in, go into your spaces where you make all the changes to create your video, or simply click “New Video.” For this tutorial, we’ll select a video from our existing spaces to demonstrate how to add keyframes.
Uploading and Selecting Your Video
If you are new to CapCut, uploading your video is very simple:
- Upload Your Video: Click on “Upload” and select the video file from your computer. The video will appear in your spaces.
- Add Video to Timeline: Click on the uploaded video to add it to your timeline. This is where all the magic happens.
Adding Keyframes to Your Video
Now that your video is in the timeline, follow these steps to add keyframes:
- Select the Video: Ensure that you have selected the video in the timeline. This is crucial because if the video is not selected, you won’t be able to add keyframes.
- Choose Keyframe Position: Navigate to the point in the timeline where you want to add a keyframe. You might want to zoom in on the timeline to pinpoint the exact location. In this example, we’ll add a keyframe at the 2:25:21 mark.
- Access Keyframe Settings: With the video selected, go to the “Basic” tab. Scroll down until you see “Transform.” Here you can add keyframes for various parameters such as scale, position, and rotation.
Example: Adding a Rotation Keyframe
Let’s add a rotation keyframe to demonstrate how this works:
- Select Rotation: Under “Transform,” find the rotation option. Click on it to add a keyframe at the chosen point in your timeline.
- Adjust Rotation: Start rotating the video clip. You’ll see the magic happen as the video rotates based on the keyframe.
- Play the Video: Go back to the beginning of the video and play it to see the rotation effect in action. You can repeat this process for scaling and positioning keyframes as well.
Conclusion
Adding keyframes in CapCut is a powerful way to enhance your video content with dynamic effects. Whether you’re looking to zoom in, pan, or rotate, keyframes can help you achieve professional-looking results effortlessly.
