Hopefully this helped those of you looking for a free video editor. Let us know which video editor you plan to use and for what purpose. BTW, Hitfilm Express which we've mentioned in prior videos has been discontinued... Thanks for watching :)

Thank you so much for your video! I loved how straight to the point you were. I hate videos where theres so much "fluff" people just seem to ramble about nothing I wanted to hear. Your video was packed with the info I needed! Thanks again! I plan to use DaVinci😊

This is a "No BS" video. Answered my questions perfectly, shows examples, tells you what to avoid and provides links to the programs. Wish i could like it 1000 times. Once again, very well done sir.

Good timing! I use VSDC but I am getting a little frustrated with it's ability. I was thinking about finding other video software.

Thank you! Any thoughts on CapCut and where that might land in this lineup? I somehow started with that just recently but likely will be easing into Davinci because I hear great things. Now to include you/this video. Thanks again!

Also I used to use VSDC but this tutorial showed me that davinci is better!

Kdenlive - finally a video editing program with interface options. That all black theme that swept through the industry broke my heart.
