OpenShot Video Editor

OpenShot Video Editor: Create amazing-looking slideshow and easily optimize your homemade videos to look professional

OpenShot Video Editor is a practical piece of software that lets you edit and create HD videos, as well as layer, mix and arrange them into attractive slideshows.

The app’s main window is split into three panels – a preview area, the timeline and a built-in player. Most of the editing functions are accessible in a clean toolbar, as well as the context menu.

OpenShot Video Editor makes it easy to add new video files and markers, as well as zoom in and out. The animation tools rely on keyframes, plus you can use preset animations for your project. The keyframes can also be created manually, plus you can access any frame and edit it as many times as needed.

The program enables you to edit numerous video properties such as size, volume, speed, aspect ratio, position, and length, but also add transitions and effects. You can work with popular HD formats such as Blu-Ray, Apple TV, YouTube-HD and Vimeo-HD among others.

Exporting is supported to common video formats including AVI, MP4, FLV, MOV, MPEG, and OGG. It’s also possible to save the current project as an OST file which will allow you to edit it at a later time.
