Part 2: How to Add 3D Effects to Video with Filmora
Although Photos is a free app in Windows 11, it has certain limitations. This is where Filmora video editor , a product by Wondershare, comes into play. Wondershare Filmora is a post-production application for both Windows and Mac computers, and is considered a good competitor of some of the industry-standard video editing applications like Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro X, DaVinci Resolve, etc.
While the Photos app can add 3D effects to the videos quickly, Filmora gives more control by offering a plethora of editing tools, options, and presets. In addition, Filmora is a timeline-oriented tool that allows you to add effects, filters, and/or elements in their corresponding layers without making any changes to the original footage.
For Win 7 or later (64-bit)
For macOS 10.12 or later
You can follow the step-by-step instructions that are given below to learn how to add 3D effects to a video with Wondershare Filmora:
Step 1: Import Source Video and Add It to the Timeline
After installing Wondershare Filmora on Windows 10 or Windows 11, launch the program, click anywhere inside the Media box present at the upper-left section of the interface, and locate and import the source video to the program. Next, hover the mouse over the thumbnail of the video, click the + icon from the bottom-right corner.
When the confirmation box appears, either click Match to Media or Keep Project Settings to adjust the project settings according to the media clip or modify the media clip according to the project preferences while adding the footage to the Timeline respectively.
Step 2: Add 3D Titles and Transitions
Click Titles from the toolbox at the top, type 3D Titles in the Search titles field present at the upper section of the upper-left box, and click 3D titles from the suggestions list.
From all the available 3D title presets that appear next, drag the one you like to the Timeline, and place it above the video track.
After this, double-click the placeholder text in the Preview window, and replace it with your caption. You can customize the font, color, and alignment of the text from the options that appear on left. Click OK from the lower-left area of the left pane to exit the editing mode. Repeat the process for all the texts that the preset has. Optionally, drag the sides of the 3D title in the Timeline to specify its duration of visibility on the screen.
To add the transitions, click Media from the toolbox at the top, click Import Media from the Media box, and repeat the process explained earlier to add a new video clip to the Timeline. Make sure that both the clips are on the same track, and are placed next to each other. Now, go to Transitions from the toolbox, and drag and place your preferred transition effect between the two media clips in the Timeline. Optionally you can drag the sides of the transition inwards or outwards to increase or decrease the speed of the effect respectively.
After this, move the Playhead (Skimmer) to the beginning of the Timeline, and press the Spacebar on your keyboard to preview the video.
Note: It is a good practice to preview your video several times during the entire editing process. This will help you identify the error sooner, and you will be able to address the issue with fewer hassles.
Step 3: Add Elements and Effects
Go to Elements from the toolbox, drag your preferred element from the upper-left box to the Timeline, and place it on a new track. You can drag the sides of the element in the Timeline to increase or decrease its visibility during video playback.
To add effects, go to Effects from the toolbox, drag your preferred effect from the upper-left box, and place it on a new layer in the Timeline. As it is with other entities, you can drag the sides of the effect to increase or decrease the duration of its impact on the video. Next, double-click the Effects layer in the Timeline, and use the available options in the box to make further adjustments.
Note: The options that you get by double-clicking the effect in the Timeline may vary according to the adjustments it allows you to make.
Once this is done, preview the video, click Export from the top-center, and use the tabs and options on the Export box to export the modified video in your preferred format.
Conclusion
If you are new to the VFX and video editing industry, trying hands with the Photos app would give you a fair idea about how things work. Once you are well-versed or if you are already a post-production professional, you can and you must go for a dedicated program like Wondershare Filmora that not only has an intuitive interface, it is also equipped with a plethora of presets to add 3D titles, elements, transitions, and effects to the videos without much hassle.

You have several options to upload your video from the web or your device. The Upload button allows you to upload videos from your system.
Step 3
You can also drag and drop the file onto the workspace or the Studio canvas. Alternatively, you can copy and paste the URL of your video from sites GIPHY, Google Drive, or YouTube and import it directly.
Once you have uploaded your video, you can start using Kapwing Video Trimmer to trim unnecessary content or make it shorter.
Step 4
A box will pop up at the bottom of the screen; this is referred to as the Timeline, and it’s where the different pieces you’re adding to the video will appear, including images layers, text layers, and video clips.
Step 5
Your video plays from the left side to the right side. The Play icon allows you to play the video and preview your project. Use the seeker to go to any point of your video that you want to see how it will look like.
Step 6
If you want more precision while editing individual video clips in the Timeline, use the Zoom In and Zoom out buttons to see a more precise view.
Step 7
To trim the video, click the Trim button.
Click and drag the ends of your video to adjust the end and start times of the video layer. Anything that you remove won’t be in the final video.
If you have more layers on your project, click and select the layer you would like to trim.
Step 8
You can also use the Timing tab to trim your video. To do this, click your clip and head over to the top right side of your screen.
You can now specify the exact time you would like the video to start and end instead of using the clicking and dragging method.
Clicking the numerals will allow you to use the up and down arrow keys and trim the video to start and end where you have specified.
You can also use the seeker to set the time where you would like the video to start and end, and then go to the numerals and click set to the current time.
Kapwing Video Trimmer will create a huge gap when you select this option. You’ll see a blank white canvas until the video starts.
You can leave this white space and add other clips or remove it so that your video starts at zero by clicking it and hitting the Delete key on your keyboard.
Step 9
Once you have finished trimming your video with Video Trimmer Kapwing, click the Export Video button.
You’ll have to sign in to remove the watermark. Click the Download button to download the trimmed video to your device.
