    DaVinci Resolve has a free alternative as well, but there is a slight learning curve. But Capcut does seem more than capable and user friendly/intuitive UI. Great video as usual!
  • @jkl3768
    I’ve been using CapCut on my phone and just decided to start using desktop. Helpful info on where all the tools are on the desktop version. Speed ramping was helpful too. Thank you!
  • @KevinAtkins
    I've gone to the paid version for the expanded music options. I usually make a custom video for my client then use one of their Reel templates for personal advertising.
  • Hey Mike I appreciate all the content, quick question when you export pictures for the mls or Facebook what settings do you export with on Lightroom/ PS
  • @trent3357
    Solid video! do you use any ND filters or Polerized filters for your drone shots?
  • @jaredmeche6325
    I love Davinci Resolve, but they need to take note of things like the speed ramp curve presets.
  • @alansarpy
    Hey Mike... Have you tried editing s log footage using this software? Premiere Pro has a setting that will automatically convert slog into rec 709. have you tried that feature??
  • @alansarpy
    Hey Mike .. If you import a bunch of clips into CapCut ... How can you tell what The frame rate is on individual clips? PPro it's super easy to look up clip info, I can't find it in CapCut thanks!
  • @duercos1
    I'm using my iPhone 14 pro max and Sony A7iii recording in 4K 30FPS. I'd like to give my videos that cinematic dreamy look. I understand that I need to slow down the video to 80% speed in order to achieve 24p speed, but how should I export it for a smooth Instagram reel? 24 or 30fps? Do you recommend any additional settings like smooth slow motion, motion blur and etc? Thanks!
  • @alexismoray2018
    Love your vids... Been a Realtor for 10 years and am now getting into Real Estate Photography. One thing I didn't factor in when buying my camera equipment was having to apparently also buy a new computer that has the capable RAM necessary for editing with Photoshop and Lightroom without getting bogged down. What would you recommend?.. I'm hearing 16GB minimum, someone else said 64GB is best and almost necessary... After spending almost $4000 in cam equipment I'm want to get something good but not overkill because this is getting expensive fast. Thanks in advance.
  • I've been using Capcut desktop for a quite a while now. Simple for edits and converting a landscape to portrait orientation video. Really wish they would offer some better real estate focused (or less gimmicky) titles and lower thirds. Also selecting a particular font can be a nightmare if you want to match branding. They few times I absolutely needed to match branding, I've made the video and then exported to FCPX to add titles, agent intros etc.
  • @Poophead1
    Is there a general rule of thumb regarding total time of video? 30sec clips? 1min?
  • @16goncalo
    Started working for a real estate company full time, thanks for your job, i watched a lot of your videos. anyway, my CEO wants to buy a better camera for video with a good HDR. i shoot everything in normal profile and dont waste time in color corrections.. what camera do you recomend? i thought going to r6 mark II because he wants a nice camera for videos in the interior, and now i'm using iphone 12 pro with a gimbal and for photos we have 600d + 10-18mm from canon. is r6 II with 15-35 f2.8 good or too much for real estate? any other cameras like sony are welcome.
  • @trent3357
    Hey why not keep 30fps instead of going up 24?
