Step-by-Step Guide: Making a Product Teaser with CapCut
Step 1: Import Your Media and Organise Your Timeline
Open CapCut Desktop and start a new project. Click “Import” to import your product images, clips, logos, and music. Drag and drop the media files into the timeline. Arrange them in the order you want them to appear. Use CapCut’s split and trim tools to cut your clips to the right length—short and sharp is best for teasers!
Step 2: Add Text, Countdown, and Transitions
To add a countdown or announcement, go to the “Text” tab and choose a design from templates or create your own text. To make anticipation, write numbers by hand or get templates for countdowns from CapCut’s Templates section. Make the transitions between clips fluid and exciting with the help of “Swipe” or “Zoom” for displaying products. Setting your important points to appear in “Typewriter” or “Bounce” finds an entertaining way to highlight important text.
Step 3: Apply Effects, Sound, and Export
Add visual flair with filters, overlays, and motion effects. Try the “Zoom In” or “Flash” effects for drama. Choose background music that matches your product vibe—CapCut offers royalty-free tracks you can use freely. Add sound effects for countdown beeps, swooshes, or reveal moments. Once happy, click “Export,” choose the resolution (1080p recommended), and you’re done!

Tips to Make Your Teaser More Engaging
Here are some creative tips to hook your audience:
Start with a Hook
Grab attention in the first 3 seconds. Use bold text, a dramatic sound, or a quick flash of the product to make people stop scrolling.
Use a Countdown for Urgency
Adding a countdown timer builds urgency and drives action. “Only 2 Days Left” or “Available April 20th” can push people to stay tuned or buy quickly.
Keep it Short and Punchy
Aim for a video that’s 15–30 seconds long. Product teasers should tease, not explain everything. Leave some mystery!
Show, Don’t Tell
Let visuals do the talking. Instead of long text, highlight features with close-up shots, product angles, or user reactions.
Match Music to Your Brand
A teaser for a fitness product should have energetic beats. A luxury item may need soft piano or jazz. CapCut’s library has many options, or you can upload your own.
End with a Clear CTA
Wrap up your teaser with a Call to Action, such as “Pre-order Now,” “Coming Soon,” or “Visit Our Website.” Use animated text and sound to emphasise this.
