I have studied Finance (CA, CMA, etc.) and worked for around 10 years in companies. I recently started a YouTube channel on Finance & Economy. Trust me, delving into YouTube, handling the camera, editing, and all related aspects was a completely new and the toughest experience for me. However, your channel along with few more has immensely helped me in this YouTube journey so far. Thank you very much, and please keep up the good work!.❤👍

Filmora video editor is intuitive and capable without massive system requirements. Not free but not overly expensive.

I switched from Davinci Resolve to CapCut because DR had way more bells and whistles than I needed. I like the simplicity of Capcut much better although a bit disappointed to learn who the parent co is

[TarmoBowling]

Very well explained, you can immediately understand whether you are a Capcut user or Davinci Resolve user. Good work Primal Video. Thank you

[ATLJB]

Also I like the templates CapCut has but I only recreate them way better in Davinci. It’s great for ideas.

[carlthewinner]

Thanks! I really hate subscriptions. I tried Davinci Resolve. But I am too dumb. I am struggling to find a good option for me.

[constructionomnipotencet]

Thank you ...great info ... Cap cut has come a long way! Im a DaVinci Resolve guy!

[suitaec]

Thank you.
I have a great and make great art but haven't found anything simple enough to use.
Thank you.

Great tutorials, I love Capcut but been told they will take certain information and photos from you? How true us that? The reason I ask, I like to make a family tree video for our family. Would you recommend this for personal images and videos from family events etc?
Thanks for any feedback.

[riseupstudios]

I think I’m going to try these out thank you.

Picking up a low resonance on your vocal track. Maybe the desk you're sitting at...

[drwahan]

I am researching how to setup a video podcast. So much to figure out lol

[remoteworkinternational]

I love using capcut. So simple to use. Capcut makes it easy for me to transition to Davinci Resolve.

[rosecoloredglasses-logan]

😇I'm still using DaVinci Resolve and loving it, thanks to you, Justin!

[sharonwalsh]

Thank you for the shared information, very useful.

[stephengreen]

I have worked with many VE programs and was a devotee of Premiere Pro for many years before switching to DaVinci. Resolve is now all I use, though it isn't for beginners.

[Rightchickenwing]

I think I was a bit hasty upgrading to Pro VSDC. Can sense more money being spent on your recommendations. Thanks mate 😊

[jaybuckeye]

I'm a total beginner. I'm never going to be a videographer. It's just going to be me talking interspersed with some still shots (no videos). Where do I start?

[Carrothers]

Any thoughts on Splice as opposed to CapCut?

[ATLJB]

I love Davinci and will never change but I’m still on the free version so I don’t have access to magic mask.. That’s where CapCut comes in with its AI cutout. Fast easy way to create a video then cut yourself out to place yourself wherever. Very ideal for people that want to put a fake YouTube studio in their background over sitting in your car 😎
