Video Editing Software

 Hey it's Xena!

In class yesterday we were told to find an editing software we wanted to use for our portfolios and other editing projects. We were given 2 different software and were told to find one more. These software had to  follow minimal requirements that were set by my teacher. When we were done with the research we had to compare and contrast all three software, then choose a software to use. 

Requirements :

  • 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 
Editing software that will be compared:What I did:
  1. I googled "video editing software"
  1. I looked through other software until I found a third software
  1. I went to each website to see if they fit the requirements 
  1. When I saw they fit all the requirements I did a 'test drive.' (I edited a couple of sample videos)
  1. I compared all the software are decided which one I liked the best.
Comparing: 

The software I compared first were openshot.org and clipchamp.com, they both followed the requirements. But for openshot.org I don't like having to download stuff to my computer unless it's documents. So, opensht.org was already a 'no' for me. But for clipchamp.com all I had to do was put in my Gmail and it saved automatically. 

Then I compared clipchamp.com and flexclip.com, they both followed the requirements. But for flexclip.com you have to save it manually, unlike clipchamp.com. They both can be signed on to using your email address. Flexclip.com has more music options than chipchamp.com does. 

Choosing a software

Choosing between clipchamp.com and flexlip.com was kind of difficult. Although flexclip.com does have more music options than clipchamp.com, I often forget to save my work especially when I'm working on something important or working on a deadline. So the software that I will be using is..... clipchamp.com!
