Questions about switching
Can I bring my CapCut projects?
No. Video has no import of another editor’s project. Export your finished videos and drop them on Video’s Home: each one becomes a Video with it placed, and its footage lands in Depot.
Can I make vertical Shorts from a long video?
Yes. Make Shorts proposes a Video’s moments from its transcript, and each one you pick becomes a vertical, captioned Clip that opens in Clips.
Does Video have generated voices, avatars or stock footage?
Stock videos, music and sound effects are in the Media Library, beside your own footage, recordings and sounds. There are no generated voices or avatars.
