Editor reviews

         EDITOR SOFTWARE REVIEW


The editing software I chose was clip champ.

- accessible from anywhere (web-based)

- ability to lay multiple tracks (both audio and video)

- ability to strip or mute audio and natural sounds from video 

- ability to collaborate with other users 


CLIP CHAMP

Clip champ is a website accessible on computers and smartphones. I have noticed that on the computer you can create and account and sign in and you can login anytime but when you try to go on the website using your phone you have to download the app. But other than that you are able to lay multiple videos, I’m not really sure about audio because I haven’t tried it yet. We can also take off any sound from original videos while editing. There are transitions we could use to make the scene change smoother like fade in/out. Conveniently there’s is a barcode that you can scan using your phone camera that allows you to import footage from your personal device to the website.

OPEN SHOT

You can not use open shot unless you download it which is kind of irritating. Apparently you can trim and slice shots to your liking. There are also different animations you could add. Unlimited tracks which mean you can add as many background videos, audio tracks, etc as you want. It is available in over 70 different languages and you add time effects like slow motion, and sped up.

iMovie

iMovie is also an app but it can only be downloaded on apple products since it’s an app created by apple. With iMovie you can also cut shots and you can fade audio which is very interesting. It has 13 different video filters. You can record your own voiceover or add built in sound effects. They also have over 80 smart soundtracks which you could add to match the length of your movie.

Why I chose Clip champ?

Clip champ meets more of the requirements given to me and it seems a lot easier to use and a lot more fun.
