Create great home video with no need for editing experience.
Now that smartphones have put the power of taking photos and videos at our fingertips, more users than ever before are capturing life around them. In fact, partly due to the availability of camera-enabled smartphones and the rise in popularity of online platforms like YouTube, people are creating, uploading, and sharing more video-based content than ever before.
YouTube has demonstrated some amazing statistics on user behavior in its 12 years. With 1.3 billion users worldwide and 300 hours’ worth of video uploaded every minute, video-based communication is obviously a hot commodity. However, the site does find some interesting behaviors occurring among its content consumers, namely that a shockingly low number of small businesses are taking advantage of the chance to reach this massive user base, and that 20% of viewers exit out of a video within the first 10 seconds for reasons such as quality, lag time, or unwatchable material.
Full-featured editing software
Knowing these findings, there’s no excuse for not sharing great video content; worse, given the availability of high-quality yet affordable video editing software, there’s no reason to post the kinds of content that make viewers leave before the good parts. AVS Video Editor is one example of an easy-to-use, full-featured editing software that can put your content on par with well-known video producers.
Don’t be fooled by the abundance of features: AVS Video Editor is not intended for professional results, so while it lacks some of the more advanced tools that the pros might need, it also means you don’t have to have attended film school to figure out how to get the most out of it. It supports multiple video formats, such as AVI HD, WMV HD, TOD, AVCHD, MOD, MTS/M2TS, and lets you add various menus to your videos for ease of playback.
300 video effects and transitions
Users are able to split, join, rotate, and edit their media, and even take advantage of more than 300 video effects or transitions. That means one of the best features for even the casual user is the ability to merge different videos together for a seamless final product, an especially handy feature for things like video highlights of a family vacation, footage of the kids’ sports events (you don’t want to watch every kid at bat, just your kid!), and more. AVS Video Editor also lets you add text comments and even subtitles, a handy add-on depending on what you plan to do with the final video.
Use your video everywhere
As a Windows-based video editing suite, it offers a clean interface that is easy to use thanks to the different panes that are dedicated to the media library, timeline, and preview window. Once the process is complete and the finished product meets the user’s needs, it can be burned to DVD or formatted for Blu-Ray, saved to your hard drive or external drive, shared to a mobile device (iOS or Android), or uploaded for sharing online on social media or video sites like YouTube.
AVS Video Editor is available in English, Danish, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Polish, Russian, and Spanish.
