Do you want your videos to string along with discourses? The good news is you don’t necessarily need to do the voiceover.
We are aware Capcut was a big hit in 2021. No surprise, really. This free all-in-one video editing app allows you to edit almost all the basic parameters of the video, such as brightness, contrast, saturation, exposure and temperature. Moreover, it comes with the function of adding artificial sharpening, something that will help videos look better after applying social media compression. Not to mention multiple filters, adding text, dozens of sound clips to add to the video, etc.
But when we want to record sound over video from the app, who said we should employ our voice? To err is human. We may get tongue-tied or forget a phrase or word. And the videos are so short! There is no time or space for hesitation. Turning to text-to-speech voices seems like a way out of the problem.
For those who don’t know, text to speech or TTS is a technology that reads any text-based material aloud for you. In other words, it generates audio from text. Don’t worry about robotic sounds, though! Thanks to artificial intelligence, these widgets can produce natural-sounding voices.
Hence, TTS can be a useful tool when creating CapCut videos. And who knows? Maybe it makes you look like a real professional at editing audiovisual content. To let you discover these benefits yourself, we will share our favourite text to speech software.
