 Hello everyone, welcome back to another cap cut tutorial. This one, I'm gonna show you how to do the black effect or the black video effect that's trending on TikTok. How do I do it? Well, I'll just show you an example here. I've got this lady and I've applied it to her. You guys will note that I have really applied it hard here and the reason why is I just wanna show you the effect. So I've overdone it just to show you how it's done. But normally you do it a little less. You do it a little more subtle than this. But anyways, let's start from scratch and let me show you how I did it. Okay, good. First step, click on New Project and we're gonna select some footage. I'm gonna select this lady here. It's about a six second long clip and if I scroll through it, there she is doing her thing. So let's go to right about here and now I'm just gonna trim the edge because it's a little bit too long. So we want it to be a shorter clip and I'm also gonna go ahead and delete out that watermark at the end because why bother with that? Okay, good. So we've got a nice short clip applied. The next step is we need to apply some effects. So when you go to the bottom here, you're gonna see that little magic wand with a star at the end there. It looks like click on Effects, click on Video Effects and now instead of going to trending, we wanna go all the way to the right and find comic. Find the comic and then go down to the bottom and you're gonna see B, N, W or black and white sketch. That's the one that we want. Apply it, click the check mark. Now we've got the black and white sketch applied to it and you can already see that it's been applied. I'm gonna increase the length of this effect so that it's the whole duration of the clip so there's no parts where it doesn't show up. Okay, good. Now that our first effect applied, we need to do some more though. We're gonna go back, we're gonna click on Effects again. We're gonna click on Video Effects and now we're gonna apply a blur. So instead of going to trending, we're gonna go to basic and under basic, just about halfway down, you'll see blur. You can adjust the strength of this blur but in the interest of time, I'm just gonna do it with the pre-built defaults. But again, you can adjust them if you wanna make yours a little different. Okay, click the check mark and presto. We've applied a blur. So we've got her in black and white and we've got her blurred. And again, I've increased the length of the duration so they're both the same. Now the next step is counterintuitive but the reason why we're doing this is because you know, CapCut doesn't really work with multiple layers and multiple blending modes like most non-linear editors on computers for example. So the next step is we're gonna click on this little arrow at the top here and we're gonna click that and we're gonna export it. So we're gonna export version one here. So this is the first video we exported. We're gonna do another one. Now once it's done exporting, click on the back arrow, do not click on done. You don't wanna jump ahead that far because that'll make a mess of it. Okay, so we've clicked on the back arrow. Now we're going to replace this first black and white. So I'm gonna click on black and white like I've done here. And when you do that at the bottom, you're gonna see replace effect. When you do that, I'm gonna go back to comic and it's already pre-built this. So we're replacing the black and white effect now with this neon effect right at the bottom. It's pretty cool. All right, cool. Click the check mark. And the next step is we wanna make sure that they're both the length, the duration of the clip. They are good. We're now gonna go to the top and we're gonna click that arrow or export button. Again, this is the second video now that we've exported. We're gonna go ahead and click the back arrow again. And I know it's a little bit tedious, but this is how you gotta do things in CapCut. And now, so we've got the two videos and now we're gonna get rid of these effects and we're gonna start blending the various videos in together. Let me show you how to do it. So the first step, just delete these two effects now. So we're basically going back to a regular version of the clip. So there's now, it's just nothing there, okay? So we've deleted the two. Now we're gonna start overlaying and splicing. So step one, we're gonna go ahead and click out and we're gonna go right to the beginning. And when you do that at the bottom, it's gonna say overlay, click on overlay, click on add overlay. Step one, we're gonna add in this black and white version first. So this is the first one we're making. So add black and white. So we've clicked it, selected it, add it. Now, while you're on the screen, click on the splice option and we're gonna go ahead and, well, no, actually, before I do that, pardon me, I'm gonna double click on this video and I'm gonna make it the full size of the image. So they gotta be the same size. So it actually applied it smaller than the original. So I double clicked on it and I increased the size so they're both the same size. Now, click on splice. And we're gonna go over to the dodge option. So click on dodge and this is like blending modes if you've used Photoshop or Premiere Pro, but they call it splice in here. And I'm gonna go ahead and I'm gonna decrease this to, I don't know, in my, let's go to something like, well, let's go with 40 because we wanna go a little over the top to show you the effect. So we're gonna splice it down to 40. Keep in mind you can adjust these values later on if you don't get it right the first time. Click on check mark. All right, good. Now we're gonna go ahead and add another overlay. So let's just go ahead and click out, I'm just gonna go back here, sorry, one second. Click out here, add a second overlay. And this time we're gonna add the neon. Gonna add that neon in, click on add. And now the neon, I'm going to splice that, but before I do it, I'm going to make sure that it's the full size just like the last one. Now we're gonna click splice again. And this time we're gonna not go with dodge. We're gonna go with the hard version. And you can already see where this is going. And again, this is over the top, but I just wanna show you the effect. And now we're gonna dial this down and we'll move forward to right about here. This is kind of like the skin tone area. And yeah, it's a bit too much, but maybe something like that, okay? Let's go with that maybe 40. Click on that, click play. That's the black effect. I'm gonna go ahead and export it. And press though, it's uploadable. And again, guys, keep in mind that if it doesn't quite look the way you want it, if you want a darker background or you want darker skin tones, you can go in and make adjustments, but this is the way you do it inside Capcom. Thanks for watching, ton more stuff coming. Stay tuned.
