CapCut Editing Essentials
Last updated today
Core Principle: Edit When Ready to Use
DO NOT edit raw content immediately.
Store everything raw until you’re ready to:
- Launch an ad campaign
- Send to your ad campaigns
- Use in your marketing
This prevents:
- Wasted time on unused content
- Creative burnout
- Over-polishing
