DavidCore89 7,404 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Yeah, as the title says, I'm looking for a noob-friendly video editing software. Just for some basic editing. A lot of the free software doesn't allow exporting, and if they do, it's super low quality. Thanks. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/21918-video-editing-software/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Con 5,719 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 DC, I think im on the same boat. I've been looking at Premiere or DaVinci but really havent dug deep enough to give you solid advice. I'm buying a green screen cause I want to try something I think could be fun. @Smurf do you have any experience with VES?

I've been playing with VSDC, easy to use, but I wanted to check out other options before buying a licence. Green screens and all that is probably way beyond what I'm looking to do, which is simply placing 1 image and 1 audio file together Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/21918-video-editing-software/#findComment-228273 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smurf 947 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 (edited) WonderShare Filmora is a good easy to use video editing software for noobs. The only issue I saw was when editing created text, the size would not change, but they probably patched that seeing I haven't used it in a while. You can also learn some shortcut key presses & tutorials etc.... on youtube, doubt you need it though. You can export in multiple ways & formats. Uploading to youtube from the app, you can change resolution, fps, audio bit rate etc. Edited October 22, 2020 by Smurf 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/21918-video-editing-software/#findComment-228294 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrel 5,180 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 I’ve done all of my editing with Cyberlink Power director. I’m a complete amateur with no editing training or prior experience before I started playing around making GTA videos. It does have a chroma key feature so you can do green screen work. Might be cheaper software available that’s more suitable for what you need. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/21918-video-editing-software/#findComment-228299 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schumi6581 839 Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 I just started with Lightworks because I had to edit a video for my daughters birthday. The free version allows exports in 720p... I don't think it's noob friendly but I got it to work for me after a few hours.

Some of the software I used at first would only allow 192kbps. Wouldn't matter on a regular video I guess.

The free version only allows H.264 / MP4 video at a maximum of 720p and 60fps. I don't see the audio specs.

I currently have paid the paid version Adobe CC (one of the only plus points of returning to education) and do the little bits and pieces I do in that mostly, it's also really good in that you can pull Illustrator and Photoshop content straight into it as well and retain links back for editing etc. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.rockstarsocialclub.net/forums/topic/21918-video-editing-software/#findComment-229475 Share on other sites More sharing options...
