About these loops

Step 1: download a vertical loop below. Step 2: in TikTok or CapCut, tap Effects, then Green screen, and pick the MP4 from your camera roll. Step 3: record over it, or lay your text and captions on top.

Each loop is made for a 9:16 screen and has no sound, so your voice or music track stays clear. Short clips loop on their own, which keeps a viewer watching for longer.
