CapCut vs SunoMV for music videos
CapCut is a great free editor, but it edits footage; it doesn't make a music video for your song. With a Suno track and no footage, you'd be hunting stock clips or buying AI seconds and lining them up to the beat by hand. SunoMV starts from the Suno link and builds the whole lyric-synced video for you.
The free preview syncs your lyrics and drafts the storyboard. Upgrade only when you want to export.
