About Us
Welcome to Editing By Vikas. This site is a free library of VN codes, CapCut templates, AI photo editing prompts, Lightroom presets and step-by-step editing tutorials. Everything published here is made to help everyday people create beautiful photos and videos on their phones, without paid software and without any editing background.
Who We Are
Editing By Vikas is run by Vikas, a working photo and video editor who has spent years learning the craft, starting with the same basic apps everyone begins with and moving on to advanced tools like VN Video Editor, CapCut, Lightroom and modern AI editing tools. What began as a personal passion for editing slowly turned into a full website built to share that knowledge with others.
The idea behind this site is simple. Good editing should not be locked behind expensive apps or complicated software. Millions of people have a smartphone and a creative idea but no easy way to bring it to life. This website exists to close that gap by giving away tested, ready-to-use editing resources for free.
What We Do
We create and share editing resources across several categories, each designed to solve a specific need. Our goal is to make sure that whatever kind of edit you want to make, there is a ready guide or file here to help you do it quickly.
AI Photo Editing Prompts
We write and test AI photo editing prompts for tools like ChatGPT and Google Gemini. These prompts let you transform a normal photo into cinematic portraits, festival looks, anime art, professional studio shots and much more, all while keeping your real face. Every prompt is written in plain language and can be copied and used instantly.
CapCut Templates and VN Codes
We share direct-use CapCut templates and VN Video Editor codes for trending Reels, slow motion edits, beat-synced videos, birthday videos and cinematic effects. Each one is designed to be imported in a tap, filled with your own photos, and exported cleanly without a watermark.
Presets and Tutorials
We provide free Lightroom DNG presets and Alight Motion XML presets for a consistent, graded look across your content. Alongside these, we publish beginner-friendly tutorials that teach editing from the ground up, so you can eventually create your own unique work rather than relying only on templates.
Our Mission
Our mission is to make high-quality editing accessible to everyone, regardless of budget or skill level. We believe creativity should never be limited by money or technical barriers. Every resource on this site reflects that belief. We want a student with an old phone to be able to make something that looks just as good as a creator with expensive gear.
We are also committed to honesty. We only recommend tools and apps that we have actually used, and we never promote anything that could put your device or your data at risk. When we say a template or code works, it is because we have tested it ourselves on a real phone.
Why Trust Editing By Vikas
Trust is earned, and we work hard to earn yours in several concrete ways.
- Everything is tested. No code, template or prompt is published until it has been checked on a real device. If something breaks after an app update, we fix it or replace it.
- Everything is free. There are no hidden charges, no paid memberships, and no locked content. The entire library is available at no cost.
- We keep content current. Editing trends change fast, so we update our guides and add new resources every week to keep pace with what people are actually searching for.
- We write in plain language. Our guides are made for beginners, with simple steps that anyone can follow, even on their first attempt.
Our Content Standards
Every article on this site is created with care and reviewed for accuracy before it goes live. We aim to give practical, real-world value in each guide rather than filler. Where we explain a process, we break it into clear steps. Where we share a resource, we explain how to use it properly and what to do if something goes wrong.
We do not copy content from other websites. Every prompt, guide and tutorial here is written originally by our team, based on genuine hands-on testing and experience. This is important both for our readers, who deserve accurate information, and for the wider editing community.

Our Story and Journey
Every website has a beginning, and ours started with a simple frustration. Years ago, when Vikas first wanted to edit photos and videos, the good tutorials were either behind paywalls, written in confusing technical language, or made for expensive desktop software that most people in India do not have access to. Learning felt harder than it needed to be. That early struggle planted the seed for what this site would eventually become.
Over time, as skills grew and the mobile editing world exploded with powerful free apps, it became clear that the barrier was no longer the tools. The barrier was knowledge. The apps were free, but knowing how to use them well was still locked away. Editing By Vikas was built to unlock exactly that, to take everything learned through years of trial and error and hand it to you in a simple, ready-to-use form.
What started as a few tutorials has grown into a full library covering photo editing, video editing, presets, and AI tools. And it continues to grow every single week, shaped by what our readers ask for and the trends they want to follow.
What Makes Us Different
There are many editing websites on the internet, so it is fair to ask what makes this one worth your time. The answer comes down to a few core principles that guide everything we publish.
Real Testing, Not Guesswork
A huge amount of editing content online is copied from one site to another without anyone actually checking whether it works. We do the opposite. Every prompt is run through the AI tools ourselves. Every VN code and CapCut template is imported and tested on a real phone. If it does not produce a good result, it does not get published. This single habit sets our content apart from the sea of untested lists elsewhere.
Beginner-First Explanations
We never assume you already know the jargon. Our guides are written for someone picking up editing for the very first time. We explain what each step does and why it matters, so you are not just following instructions blindly but actually learning as you go. This means that over time, you become a better editor, not just someone who can copy a template.
No Cost, No Catch
Some sites lure you in with a free promise and then lock the good stuff behind a payment or a signup. We do not. There is no premium tier, no account required, and no paywall. The entire library is genuinely free, because we believe knowledge like this should be available to everyone.
The Tools We Cover
To give you a clear picture of what you will find here, these are the main tools and platforms our content focuses on. Each one is free or has a strong free version, and each plays a specific role in the editing workflow.
VN Video Editor is our go-to for detailed, cinematic video edits, thanks to its keyframes and professional-grade controls. CapCut is the fastest way to make trending Reels using one-tap templates. ChatGPT and Google Gemini power our AI photo editing, turning simple prompts into stunning transformations. Adobe Lightroom handles our colour grading through free DNG presets. Alight Motion covers advanced motion effects for those who want to push their videos further.
Across all of these, our aim is the same, to help you get professional-looking results using tools you already have on your phone. We connect the dots between what these apps can do and what you actually want to create.
Looking Ahead
The world of editing never stands still. New AI tools appear, new trends take over, and the apps we use are constantly updated. We are committed to keeping up with all of it, so that Editing By Vikas remains a place you can rely on for current, working, and genuinely useful content. As the technology grows, so will we, always with the same focus on being free, tested, and easy to understand.
We are grateful to every reader who visits, learns, and creates something using our resources. You are the reason this site exists, and your growth as a creator is the whole point.
How to Get the Most From This Site
To help you make the best use of everything here, we want to share a few suggestions on how to navigate and benefit from the site. Whether you are here for a single quick edit or you want to become a skilled editor over time, a little guidance goes a long way.
If you are brand new, start with our beginner tutorials and the simplest prompts, such as a basic portrait or a single festival look. These require only one photo and give quick, satisfying results that build your confidence. As you grow comfortable, move on to more advanced resources like VN codes and multi-step video edits. Progressing gradually keeps the learning enjoyable rather than overwhelming.
Bookmark the categories that matter most to you, and check back weekly, since we add fresh content regularly. Following trends early is one of the biggest advantages a creator can have, and our seasonal and trending sections are designed specifically to help you post before a wave peaks rather than after it fades.
Our Promise to You
Everything on this site is built on a simple promise, that what we publish will be free, tested, and genuinely useful. We will never lock our core content behind a paywall. We will never publish a code or template we have not checked ourselves. And we will always write in a way that a complete beginner can follow. These are not marketing slogans, they are the standards we hold ourselves to with every single piece of content.
We also promise to keep listening. This site grows and improves because of the people who use it. Your questions shape our tutorials, your requests shape our content calendar, and your feedback shapes how the whole site works. In a very real sense, this is a project we build together with our readers.
A Final Word
Thank you for taking the time to learn about who we are and what we do. Editing By Vikas exists for one reason, to help you create photos and videos you are proud of, using tools you already have, without spending a rupee. Whether you make one edit here or a hundred, we are glad you came, and we hope you leave with something you love. If you ever want to reach out, we are only an email away at contact@editingbyvikas.com.
