Unlock CapCut Pro Features for FREE: Change Backgrounds & Enhance Audio (2024 Tutorial)

Introduction

CapCut is known for its powerful editing capabilities, but many of its essential features are locked behind a Pro subscription. Don’t worry! In this guide, I will show you how to unlock these Pro features without spending a dime, so you can create aesthetically pleasing videos and enhance your audio quality. We will learn how to change the background of your videos, add a blur effect, and improve the clarity of your audio—all using CapCut’s features for free.

Step-by-Step Guide to Change Your Video Background

1. Import Your Background and Video

   • Open CapCut and import the image you want to use as your new background.
   • Next, bring in the video you wish to edit. Ensure your video is on the timeline.

2. Set Aspect Ratio

   • Click on the aspect ratio option and select the YouTube preset (16:9). This will adjust the dimensions of your project.

3. Resize and Position the Background

   • Select your imported background image and expand it to fit the screen. You can minimize the overlay video if needed to see what you're doing.

4. Remove the Original Video Background

   • With your video clip selected, navigate to the option that allows you to remove the background using the Pro feature. Click it, and CapCut will automatically strip away the original background.

5. Blur the Background

   • To add focus to your subject, select the background image and go to effects. Search for the blur effect and apply it, adjusting the intensity to your liking.

6. Screen Record Your Edited Video

   • Since the Pro feature has been used, the final step is to screen record your edited video rather than exporting it directly. Play the video while screen recording, then stop once finished.

7. Edit the Screen Recorded Video

   • Start a new project where you will import your screen recording. Adjust the aspect ratio to 16:9 as before.
   • You can sharpen the video quality by selecting the video, going to adjust settings, and increasing the sharpen levels.

8. Export Your Video

   • Now you can export your fully edited video with a custom background and clear visuals, all without paying for the Pro features.

Enhance Your Audio Using CapCut

Next, let’s enhance your audio using CapCut’s voice enhancement feature, which is also a Pro option but can be utilized for free by following these steps:

1. Enhance Your Voice

   • Click on your video, navigate to enhancements, and enable the voice enhancement feature. This will improve your audio clarity and help reduce background noise.

2. Screen Record the Audio

   • Increase your device volume to the maximum and screen record the video. This allows you to capture the enhanced audio without losing quality.

3. Editing the Audio

   • Return to your project, mute the original audio clip, and go to either add audio or extract audio options to retrieve the enhanced sound from your screen recording.

4. Sync the Audio

   • Trim out any silent parts and ensure that the audio matches your video perfectly.

5. Export Your Video with Enhanced Audio

   • Finally, export your video, and you will have a clear audio track paired with your visually stunning video.

By following these steps, you can effectively use CapCut's Pro features for free, elevating your content creation game.
