Familiarizing Yourself with the Desktop and Mobile Interface

For Mobile
 Workspace. CapCut directs you to your primary workspace after you upload your first clip.
This is where you will spend most of your time in the app. From top to bottom, there's the
preview panel, timeline, and toolbar.
 View the preview panel. This is the top half of your screen and it displays a preview of
what your edited video clip will look like.
 View the timeline and toolbar. These are the bottom half of your screen. The timeline is
below the preview panel and it is where you will perform all your edits. The toolbar at the very
bottom of your screen contains all of your editing tools like split, audio, text, stickers, effects,
and more.

How to add video in your timeline

1. Start a New Project. After opening the
app, tap on the “New Project” button - a
new screen will pop up that displays your
camera roll videos.

2. Select a video clip. Click on the “import button” and locate

which video clip you want to add to your project by scrolling
through the new page that shows your camera roll. Click on the
thumbnail of your desired video and click the “Open” button. Do
the same process if you want to add more videos or pictures.
 For mobile: Locate which video clip you want to add to your project by scrolling through the
new page that shows your camera roll. Tap on the thumbnail of your desired video and tap
the “Add” button in the lower right corner of your screen.

3. Placing the video in the timeline. Click on the “add” button located
on the lower right corner of the video to add the video in the timeline
or you can just simply drag the video in the timeline.

Basic Editing
1. Trim video clips. "Trimming" in video editing is when you shorten the beginning or end of
your video. To trim the beginning of your clip, drag your finger from right to left on the
timeline until the playhead is where you want the video to start. The playhead is the white line
underneath the play button. Next, tap on the clip and drag the thick white line on the left to
meet the adjusted playhead. Your video will now start at the location where you put the
playhead.

 Trimming means that the part of your clip that used to be between the thick white line
and the adjusted playhead will be completely cut out.

 To trim the end of your video, perform this step on the right side. Drag the timeline to
the place you want the video to end (indicated by the playhead). Then tap on the clip
and drag the thick white line on the right to meet the playhead.

2. Join video clips. If you want to add more clips to your project, use the ‘Join’ tool to do so.
Tap on the white "plus" button on the right of the timeline. Then select another clip, tap on its
thumbnail, and click "Add" in the lower right corner. You will now see the new clip located to
the right of the old clip on your timeline!
 If you want to switch around the chronological order of your clips, simply press, hold,
and drag a clip in the timeline and to your desired location (i.e. placing the new clip to
the left of your old clip to make it play first).

3. Split video clips. To split a clip in two, drag the timeline until the playhead is where you
want to split. Tap on your clip, and then on the “Split” icon in the toolbar. Your result will now
display two separate clips, rather than one.
 This can be helpful if you want to place a separate clip in the middle of one. Split the
original clip where you want the other one to go, then use the Join tool to add a new
video. Drag this new clip in between the split you just created!
