Effects to enhance your videos

TikTok allows us to apply numerous effects to our recordings through a complete menu; one of these most striking effects is that of rain, a filter that simulates rain in our video and that we can stop at any time with our hand. Furthermore, if we move the phone while applying this effect, the rain will remain static, causing the so-called Matrix effect, something that can be very useful in our videos.
