Have you ever wanted to change the sky in your video to make it more dramatic or colorful? In this tutorial, I will show you how to do that using a free app called CapCut.
CapCut is a powerful video editing app that lets you create amazing videos with ease. You can download it from the App Store or Google Play Store.
What You Need
To replace the sky in a video using CapCut, you will need two videos: one with the original sky that you want to replace, and one with the new sky that you want to use.
You can use any video, or you can download some free stock videos from sites like Pexels.com.
How to Replace the Sky
Here are the steps to follow:
1. Open CapCut and start a new project. Tap on the plus icon and select New Project.
2. Select the new sky video from your gallery and tap on Add. This will be the background layer of your video.
3. From the main menu at the bottom, choose Overlay and then Add Overlay. This will let you add another video on top of the background layer.
4. Select the video with the original sky that you want to replace and tap on Add. This will be the overlay layer of your video.
5. Enlarge the overlay layer to fill the display by pinching it with your fingers. You can also adjust its position and rotation if needed.
6. While the overlay layer is selected, choose Cutout from the menu at the bottom. This will let you remove parts of the overlay layer that you don’t want to show.
7. Select Customized Cutout from the options. This will let you manually erase parts of the overlay layer using a brush tool.
8. Select Brush from the options and start painting over everything except the sky in the overlay layer. You can adjust the size of the brush using the sliders at the bottom. While you are painting, you will see a red mask over the parts that you want to keep.
9. When you are done painting, tap on checkmark at the bottom right corner. You will see that the original sky in the overlay layer has been replaced by the new sky in the background layer.
10. Now you can play back your video and see how it looks.
When you are happy with your video, tap on Export at the top right corner and choose your preferred resolution and quality.
