โจ Record yourself sitting on a chair and pretending to look around.
Start by recording a short video of yourself sitting on a chair. Make sure the lighting is consistent and there are no distractions in the background. As you record, pretend to look around and interact with your surroundings, adding a touch of realism to the final effect.
โจ Open CapCut and select “Text to Image”.
Once you’ve recorded your video, open the CapCut app and tap on the “Text to Image” option. This feature allows you to generate an image based on your text descriptions, providing a vast possibility of backgrounds to choose from.
โจ Type in an imaginary view and tap on “Generate”.
Let your imagination run wild! Type in a description of the background you want to create, whether it’s a scenic landscape, a futuristic cityscape, or even an abstract art piece. CapCut will use its AI algorithms to generate a unique image based on your input.
โจ Select the image you like and tap on “HD Upscale” followed by “Save”.
Browse through the generated images and select the one that appeals to you most. Tap on “HD Upscale” to enhance the image quality, ensuring your image looks crisp and detailed. Finally, tap on “Save” to add the image to your gallery.
โจ Go back to the main page and start a new project.
Head back to the main page of the CapCut app and start a new project. This will be where you’ll combine your AI-generated background with your recorded video.
โจ Go to “Photos”, select the AI image, and tap on “Add”.
Open the “Photos” section of the app and locate the AI-generated background image you saved earlier. Select the image and tap on “Add” to import it into your project.
โจ Select the image clip in the timeline.
Tap on the AI background image in your timeline to select it. This will make it the active layer for your project.
โจ Choose “Style”, go to “AI Painting”, and choose “Transcend”.
CapCut offers a variety of AI-powered effects that can enhance your video. To give your background a more dynamic and immersive feel, tap on the “Style” icon, followed by “AI Painting”. Select the “Transcend” effect to add subtle motion and depth to your background.
โจ Choose “Overlay”, and “Add Overlay”.
Now it’s time to add your recorded video over the AI background. Tap on the “Overlay” icon and select “Add Overlay”. This will create a new layer above the background.
โจ Select the chair recording, and tap on “Add”.
Locate your recorded video of yourself sitting on the chair. Select the video and tap on “Add” to import it into the overlay layer.
โจ Go to “Cut Out” and select “Customized Cut Out”.
To seamlessly blend your recorded video into the AI background, you’ll need to remove the background of your chair recording. Tap on the overlay layer with your recorded video and select “Cut Out”. Choose the “Customized Cut Out” option for precise control.
โจ Select “Brush” and paint over yourself and the chair.
Using the “Brush” tool, carefully paint over your body and the chair in your recorded video. This will isolate you from the background, allowing it to be replaced with the AI background.
โจ Tap on the check mark and playback to watch your amazing new background!
Once you’re satisfied with the cut-out, tap on the check mark to confirm your selection. Playback the video to witness your transformation, as you’re now sitting against the stunning AI-generated background!
