I am a hard-core gamer (yeah, I love COD and Clash of Clans), and I regularly record my gameplay videos and share them on social media. Apart from gaming, I also screen-record my software tutorials to help my users get accustomed to the app and use it easily.

But is it a tedious process to install screen recording software separately and then add the video to editing software for all those trimmings?

To bypass this process, Capcut Pro has come up with a new feature called “Screen Recording”, using which you can either capture a specific part of your screen or the complete window.

Once the Recording is stopped, it’s automatically added to the Capcut Media portion for editing. To try out this feature, please follow these steps.

1. Open Capcut on your mobile or Windows using the version available on the App Store, or you can download our Capcut Pro APK file.
2. From a long list of newly added features, select “Screen Record,” and it will give you some options on how to proceed.
3. First, select the frame you want to record. Either go with a specific portion or let it capture the complete.
4. Then, select the resolution. I suggest going ahead with 1920×1080, i.e. Full HD, because the majority of people nowadays prefer 1080p instead of 720p, and many don’t have the option to watch content in 4k.
5. Then, you have to write a file name and choose the destination folder to save the file.
6. After this, you can play along with some other options like “Hide mouse gesture” or select the cursor colour, allowing or disallowing the clicking sound.
7. You can also select the frame rate for Recording. I suggest going ahead with 24fps or 25fps.
8. Another major option is sound. You can allow the internal speaker to record and capture the audio from an external microphone.
9. Capcut also asks you to set a timer before the actual recording starts and to have a buffer; always go with “3 seconds.”
10. Once all the options are selected, click Recording On and then play a game or use the software. Your every action will be recorded.
11. You can also pause the Recording in between and resume it at any point you want.
12. This process works great with gaming videos and you can learn how to record gaming clips from this post.

Note: You cannot play a video on any popular OTT app and record the screen. Firstly, those apps have a screen recording detection feature that will black out the video, and secondly, it’s illegal to do the same.

Editing your Recorded Screen in Capcut

Once you have completed your screen recording, the video is automatically added to the software’s media screen. You can now start editing by following the steps mentioned below.

1. Drag the media file onto the Capcut’s timeline. If you want, you can separate the audio from the video.
2. Trim out the parts that you do not want in your video.
3. Add a Fade-in transition at the beginning and a Fade-out transition at the end.
4. If your video has multiple cuts, then use other transitions like Dissolve to make it smooth.
5. Add filters to enhance the colour quality of your video.
6. You can use stickers to add emojis, graphics, calls to action, and much more.
7. Write text on your video by using the Title feature in the app.
8. Add background music from Capcut’s extensive audio library to your video, or use your music.
9. Once done, export the video in your desired format, resolution and frame rate. Choose a file name and destination folder.
