Shining Bright with Color 🌈
Watch your videos pop with the new color correction feature! Adjust the brilliance of your media by tweaking sliders under the "Adjust" tab. Kapwing now offers advanced controls to manipulate color temperature, casts, highlights, shadows, whites, and blacks. This feature is perfect for correcting unnatural lighting, recovering bright areas, boosting moodiness, improving readability, and so much more! Use the "Show Original" option to compare your edits with the unaltered version and achieve your desired look.
Automating Eye Contact 🔮
If you've ever found yourself reading a script while recording a video, the new AI Eye Contact tool is here to save the day! Simply upload your video onto Kapwing, navigate to "AI Tools" in the sidebar, and select the "Eye Contact" option. The tool will process your video, making it appear as if you're looking directly into the camera. This feature is especially useful for speakers reading off of their screen or recording Zoom sessions. Thanks to our partnership with Texel, this AI-powered tool is now available for all Kapwing users!
