Recently I subscribed to Capcut Pro after exhausting my one-year free period and I must say it didn't feel the same again using Capcut without its Pro features. I have gotten used to some of the features that the Pro offers to the extent that I had no other choice than to subscribe to Capcut Pro.
If you are new to using capcut on your PC, then you may receive the one year free of Pro Features before it is removed just like I did and since then, I have edited numerous videos, and most of them are light editing. When I say light editing, that means it only involves making some cuts, and transitions and nothing complex.
The video I uploaded yesterday, I will be going through some of the features that I used in editing the video. You can check out the video below:
Before I begin my major editing, I always make sure I have my video is ready alongside my script. In my script, I make sure to take note of areas where I will place B rolls as they make videos very engaging.
After importing my video on Capcut, the first thing I do is to make cuts. The major cuts I do are for errors, and areas where I want to put my B rolls, or instead I just mark them.
As you can see, I made a lot of cuts in this video because there were a lot of mistakes I made while shooting the original video. On the normal Capcut (the one without pro), you definitely have the cut feature in it.
Where the pro feature comes helpful is when I am editing the voice and also my video image quality. My Phone Camera is bad and without the pro features, I don't think the quality of this video would be anywhere near good.
| Image Quality | Voice Quality |
|---|---|
 |  |
For the video image quality, I also did some color grading using the Adjustment Filter Options, to let my video look better.
In the image above, I layered the adjustment filter above the video, then I applied the color grading to the adjustment filter. Below are some of the settings I applied to the filter in order to color grade the video.
Here is the difference in image quality after applying all these setting:
 |  |
|---|---|
| With enhanced image quality and color grading | Video without added settings. |
I wish I can show you the difference in voice quality, you would probably shout wow. This is because I shot this video without a microphone and sound card, and at that moment, rain was falling. There was noise all over the video, but with the Noise Remover, Voice Enhancer, and Normalize Loudness, I was able to bring up the quality of the video.
These are the reason why paying for the Pro features on Capcut is totally worth it. I have been able to adjust these errors easily.
I was able to convert the video above to shorts, as you see in the video below:
But for that, I did not use the long form to short option on the Capcut Pro because the AI did not take the key information I needed on the video. So what I had to do was export my long-form video and re-edit it, cutting out the less relevant part and bring the first 1 minute 30 seconds of the video down to 42 seconds.
So what do you think? What video editor are you using and you think I should try out?

I love using capcut too for editing videos. Although I've been using the free version not until I tried logging in some months back and found out some of the free features were now pro 🤧. I'm yet to upgrade to the pro version though...the video is beautiful.
Well done 👍
The pro version cost about 10,000 naira monthly to get. For me, it is quite a lot but it is worth it due to the features I get. I hope I would be able to keep up with it. I have many other monthly subscriptions I pay for inclusively.
I barely edit, so I'd just hold on for now.
"Pro for a reason 🤣" it's can be the caption of this post 😉. I hardly install any video editing software and I can remember I installed capcut once or twice but never considered about pro as I am not a video type person. But I can see the significant difference between the 2 videos you shared. Indeed pro is better.
!PIZZA
Yeah you could see the difference between the image quality. Pro is better and totally worth it.
It is worth it
I don’t make use of any video editor because I don’t know if I will even get the usage, lol
Yeah you will get to know how to use it if you spend the time to explore it. It is not so difficult. You would get better in time.
Capcut Pro is just the way to go, brother. I don't use it as much as you do, but it makes my work so much easier. We even have more talk on video editing. We'll talk soon.
And yes, bro, that video was a banger. Loved it! Scripting is next on my learning agenda.
Yeah bro, we should even talk more on this video editing. There is a lot more we can learn from each other and ideas we can bring together.
Yeah Scripting is very important, I should note that too.
