About this course

Short-form is its own craft. This course covers the retention patterns, caption styles and sound choices that keep viewers past the third second — all inside CapCut, on a phone or desktop.

You will build a posting system: templates you reuse, a caption style that matches the brand, and a batch workflow that gets a week of content out in one sitting.
