Make a quiz video in CapCut from questions built from your own notes
DeckOwl writes the multiple-choice, true/false and short answer questions from your material. You bring them into CapCut to film the quiz.
Where DeckOwl fits in a CapCut quiz video
Learning how to make a quiz video in CapCut gets much easier when the questions are already written. CapCut handles the timing, music and text on screen, but it does not write the questions, so the hardest part is often the content itself.
- Set each question slide to 8 to 15 seconds so viewers have time to answer.
- Show the answer on its own slide with the explanation underneath.
- Use one question per slide and keep the on-screen text short.
- Test the finished video with a friend before you publish it.
Questions from your notes
Upload a PDF, slides, notes or a photo of a page and get multiple-choice, true/false or short answer questions.
Explanations for answer slides
Each question includes an explanation you can show right after the reveal in your video.
Exports for your records
Export to PDF or DOCX on Plus. QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML exports are on Pro.
How it works
Upload your material
Add the PDF, slides, notes or photos you want to quiz yourself on.
Review the questions
Check the wording and correct answers, then remove any question you do not want on screen.
Build the video in CapCut
Put each question on a timed slide in CapCut, then add the answer and explanation after a pause.
DeckOwl does not edit video. It reads your notes and produces the question set, with the correct answer and an explanation for each one. You then copy those into CapCut as text slides, which keeps the quiz accurate and your editing time short.

Frequently asked questions
How many questions should a quiz video have?
Five to ten questions usually work well for a short video. Fewer questions keep the pace up, while too many make viewers lose focus before the end.
What makes a good multiple-choice distractor?
Good wrong answers are plausible and based on common misconceptions, such as confusing mitosis with meiosis. Avoid obviously false options, since they give away the answer.
Does DeckOwl edit the video itself?
No. DeckOwl creates the quiz questions, answers and explanations, and you build the video in CapCut or another editor.
Which exports need a paid plan?
Exporting is a paid feature. PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export are on Plus, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are on Pro.
