Film & Animation
Introduction
In the ever-evolving world of video editing, CapCut has introduced exciting features to elevate your content creation experience. As a recent pro user, I've explored the new AI characters and credits system within CapCut, which can significantly enhance your videos. In this article, I'll walk you through two straightforward methods to integrate AI characters into your projects while maximizing the use of captions.
Integrating AI Characters with Voiceovers and Captions
Before diving into creating AI characters, it's essential to have a voice track or auto captions ready. If you’ve never done this before, don’t worry; it’s an easy process. Start by recording your voiceover. Once that's complete, you can generate captions for the audio by navigating to the 'Captions' section within the CapCut app.
You’ll need to choose your language and whether to enable some features that are exclusive to the pro version, such as auto-highlight and the identification of filler words. Click the 'Generate' button, and CapCut will automatically create captions above your voiceover, making it easy to identify and modify them as needed.
Once you have your captions in place, head over to the 'AI Characters' section. Here, you’ll find a variety of customizable characters available to add personality to your video. CapCut has expanded its character selection and even provided options with built-in backgrounds. Each character can also be assigned a unique voice, allowing for a range of expressive possibilities.
To utilize a character, simply highlight part of your caption, select an AI character, and pick a voice. CapCut’s testing sample feature makes it easy to assess your chosen voice right away.
Different Framing and Background Options
CapCut provides various framing options for the AI characters: full-body, 3/4 view, half-body, and circular framing. Be cautious when selecting backgrounds, as it's not straightforward to alter them once chosen. You can opt for a transparent background or even upload your own image, giving you flexibility and creative control.
Understanding Credits for AI Characters
One of the most noteworthy updates in CapCut is the introduction of a credits system. Each AI character you add will require a certain number of credits, which is displayed in a notification. For instance, for a specific clip, you might see that 128 credits are needed. As a pro user, I noticed I started with 550 credits, but the count may vary for you. You can view the credits required based on your selected character and their associated features.
CapCut allows you to add AI characters using another method as well. You can manually input text directly into the left pane, where you also have the option to use the AI writer for automatically generated scripts. This provides an alternative for those who prefer not to use existing voiceovers.
Once you've configured everything to your satisfaction, hit 'Add' to see the credits deducted from your balance.
Conclusion
With the new AI features and the credits system in CapCut, you can create engaging and interactive videos in a few simple steps. Whether you choose to use your voiceover or input text manually, the possibilities are endless.
