CapCutTry it →Watch full video →Patrik Key ·

Demo summary

The final demo shows how to add professional polish using keyframed blur transitions, camera shakes, and motion blur on moving assets.

Step-by-step

  1. Add a blur effect to the timeline and set a keyframe.
  2. Adjust the blur intensity (e.g., from 0 to 30) over several frames to create a transition.
  3. Open the keyframe graph and smooth out the animation curves.
  4. Drop a shake effect onto the timeline and align its middle keyframe with the cut or movement.
  5. Adjust the speed and strength of the shake keyframes to prevent excessive movement.
  6. Right-click moving assets or icons and select 'Create compound clip'.
  7. Apply the Motion Blur effect to the compound clips.
  8. Adjust the Motion Blur settings to around 70% to ensure the movement looks natural.

Options

  • Copy and paste existing shake or blur effects to reuse keyframe timing across different clips.
  • Deactivate and reactivate effects to compare the 'before and after' look.

Watch out for

  • You must turn icons or assets into a compound clip before applying motion blur if they aren't already grouped.
  • Ensure the middle keyframe of a shake or blur effect aligns exactly with the cut between clips for the transition to be effective.

Tips

  • Decrease the strength and speed of shakes if the effect feels 'too much' or distracting.
  • Keep motion blur around 70 instead of 100 to avoid an over-processed look.
  • Time your blur transitions to match zoom movements for a more professional feel.
  • Use shakes on transitions to make the cut almost invisible.

Highlights

“it kind of a make this entire click movement the feel even more premium.”
