Add Product Reviews & B-Roll Using CapCut

📦 1. Film Your A-Roll (Talking Segment)

Start with a clear, well-lit shot of you reviewing the product:

• Use natural light or a ring light
• Speak clearly and keep it concise (30–60 sec max)
• Talk through key points: what it is, how it feels, why you like/don’t like it

➡️ Import this as your base clip in CapCut.

🎞 2. Add B-Roll Overlays

Overlay cutaway footage showing:

• Unboxing
• Using/applying the product
• Textures, packaging, results

🎯 This breaks up your A-roll and keeps it visually engaging.

➡️ In CapCut:

• Overlay > Add Overlay > Resize + Position

💡 Use fade-in/out or slide animations for smooth B-roll transitions.

🗣️ 3. Keep Your Voiceover Playing Under B-Roll

• CapCut allows you to layer visuals without muting your voice.

➡️ Just overlay B-roll on top of the A-roll — the audio continues underneath unless you mute it manually.

🧩 4. Use Text for Key Review Points

Add on-screen callouts:

• “Smells like vanilla + citrus”
• “Best for oily skin types”
• “$12 on Amazon – lasts 3 months”

➡️ Text > Add Text > Use modern fonts like Montserrat or Lato

➡️ Animate with Fade In, Bounce, or Typewriter

🔊 5. Enhance with Music & Sound FX

Light background music (keep volume low under voice)

Add sound effects for product snaps, sprays, pumps, etc.

➡️ Audio > Sounds / Effects > Cosmetic, UI, Whoosh

🎨 6. Add a Branded Look

Maintain visual identity:

• Consisent font & color scheme
• Logo or watermark in the corner
• Use filter presets to enhance product colors/texture

➡️ Filters > Portrait / Life / Custom Adjustments

🔁 7. Use Jump Cuts or Zooms for Energy

CapCut makes it easy to:

• Remove silences (Split > Delete)
• Zoom into face for reactions (Edit > Crop or Keyframe Zoom)
• Add quick cut transitions for polish

📲 8. Export and Repurpose

• Export in 1080x1920 for TikTok/Reels
• Recut the same review into 15s, 30s, and 60s versions
• Add subtitles (use Auto Captions) for accessibility

🧠 Bonus Tips:

• Shoot B-roll vertically and in good light
• Keep text short and high-contrast for readability
• For affiliate or paid content, always add “#ad” or “sponsored” labels
