I'm using Davinci Resolve 16. Once you went through the learning curve, the features are great. I love it. A bit heavy to run so you need a good computer
Just wanted to say THANK YOU for such amazing tips and videos I honestly grew my channel following everything you mention in your videos the word thank you isn’t even enough! 💕💕

I had iMovie on my old iPhone i used it to make my intro on RUclips But idk how to use iMovie now I forgot all my memories got erased by the car I got hit by
I will forever be grateful and thankful to you teaching me how to EDIT as a lay person and a beginner in a RUclips community! Now, I EDIT like a PRO!Thank you uuuuuu👍❤❤❤❤❤
We started pumping out consistent content about 3 months ago. We now use Resolve, but started with Video Editor on Widows 10. The best feature of Resolve? Power! This thing has a ton of power in the free version. There is a learning curve, but you can get it with time. The biggest downfall is it needs a powerful computer. Previewing transitions and effects can be choppy without a powerful computer. But it’s not that big of a deal. Learn something new with this thing each time we use it!
Thank you for this! It means a lot that people like you put forward the time and effort to help people like me find things that I don't even really know how to search for. This is still largely new to me - the actual avenue of video editing. I'm just an aspiring video game creator so this area of media is nearly foreign. Your research and review are very helpful. May God bless you for your time and service for noobs like me. :)
I just started my RUclips channel and have been editing from I phone but getting started has been less stressful because of your videos so thank you so much
Im a total beginner but ive gone through shotcut and imovie but currently using Davinci Resolve and for me, there is just no competition. Davinci Resolve blew me away - not to mention the quality and amount of tutorials for it is astounding. Not to mention there's a community discord that's really helpful if you have any questions. The fusion tool is very daunting but once you get the hang of it - its just so convenient for everything you need. Shotcut just kept crashing and was so limited with little to no effects and help. Imovie was just confusing and limited. Oh and i used blender too. It was okay. But the smoothness and overall genius of Davinci UX just made me stoked to actually BE able to edit videos and get constant help. All i can say is this: Just get Davinci Resolve. There's so many great youtubers with high quality tutorials for everything you would ever want and even more for things you didn't know you want. Example: My earlier videos were normal cuts here and there with some minor effects. With davinci - in 13-14 hours ive almost completed my MultiPoV videogame edit with in-and-out camera angles, smooth and frame perfect transitions and am in the middle of learning how to make a simple intro INSIDE DAVINCI RESOLVE. Oh, and i made animated neon outlines that rotated over a clip. You can make that in like.. 15-25 minutes. And yes, there's a tutorial for that also. Just get Davinci, its absolutely insane for a free program. Yes i'm fanboying over it, thats how much i like it. :D
I'd like to mention i have used adobe and sony vegas during my school days. :) For me - Davinci just hits all the right notes and does a lot of the things better. Biggest thing to learn is definitely the Fusion tool. It's powerful but my god once you get he hang of it. It's like Adobe AE, but lighter and for me - a lot faster and easier to learn.
Imove is good, the only thing I don't really like is the text. There are very few option and I think it would be great if there were more fonts and the ability to animate the text.
I have chosen Blender as my second video editor. It is not mentioned in best video editors because it lacks some key features. I heard they are going to include those in future versions. I have edited a few videos and it feels Professional to me !
Been on I movie for over 2 years now so very used to it . I’ve also got Davinci resolve but haven’t got the time to get my head round it . I movie have just updated and it’s a small thing but it doesn’t show how long your individual clips are any more , annoying! Great video as ever 👌🏼🧱👍🏼 Congratulations on 700 k 🥳🥳🥳
i edit in resolve and it is incredible but im a beginner so its pretty hard (im not on my youtube channel account) but for me its not taxing on my laptop suprsingly
I feel like you repeat yourself a lot...which is why I love how you labeled and sectioned off the different parts so I could skip around easy. thank you so much for the info! tutorials too?! bro...you da best.
A few quick tips for Davinci Resolve: the software only takes MP4 and JPEG flies so u may want to look for a file converter if needed. Also try not to use the cut section that much, edit does almost everything cut does but with all the keyboard shortcuts.
Adam Mellor yes I love it. I started using it as a beginner editor but I’ve slowly been incorporating new features into my editing process. I highly recommend it if u have a powerful enough computer.
The Half Blood RUclipsr what are the specs of your computer? If you don’t mind me asking. I’m going to be upgrading from a Mac to a PC and I want something that can handle davinci resolve.
@@AdamMellor1 I've got a dell xps 15 with an Intel i7-8706G CPU and an insufficient GPU. I'd recommend a computer with a powerful GPU and an intel i8 or i9 processor. Davinci Resolve can start and function on my pc but it's quite laggy and my CPU heats up pretty quickly. hope this helps.
That's one of the great advantages about Shotcut over paid software like Premiere Pro and Resolve: Shotcut will accept almost any file. Premiere and Resolve do not accept any files that are in mkv containers. Also, Shotcut offers GPU rendering for export. Resolve does not offer it on their free version.
Filmora is the closest I've seen for an iMovie competitor and Hitfilm has great options if you want to learn how to do various special effects with your videos.
i use shotcut because it is cross platform, free, with no watermark, and can go up to 3840x2160 resolution and because it downloads it as an exe file and u dont have to extract it with a extracting program, and you dont have to give any information away
One advantage to using/Starting with DaVinci Resolve is there a ton of Videos on You Tube from very basic (Getting Started to very involved special every thing). After using many different versions of Adobe Premiere. Started with Ver. 4.2 in 1996, Jumping to another editor (Davinci Resolve) took, still taking, some effort to rap my head around things like FUSION. If you are young maybe no problem but for an O'l Gezzer it's been very frustrating. I thank God for guys like Justin.
for about a year I've been using iMovie for RUclips videos and I think that im going to change to shortcut or DaVinci Resolve, they seem to have more freedom in what you can do!
i tried da vinci, but exactly because I'm a beginner I don't like it and haven't gotten the hang of it, so I'm sticking to Splice, which is versatile enough and I can edit on my phone. Hope this helps someone, Splice has been good to me 😅
My MacBook Pro is the newest one yet and it has a bar where the F1 F2 F 3 you know and you click on the volume and you can drag it to what volume you want it to be so its basically a strip of computer screen where the F1 F2 F3's would go to get the F1 F2 F3's up I press FN.
I really liked VSDC on Windows...but switched over to Mac recently. iMovie left me wanting for more...and $300 for Final Cut is too steep for me. Thanks for the video :) I'll give Davinci Resolve a try
I like da-vinci but it kept on crashing on my Mac book pro 2020? I desperately want final cut pro but cannot afford it like why do they not have a pay monthly feature :(
Hey man, I'm not an absolute beginner I've used premier pro and some of the features, but I don't necessarily need all of the advanced systems, so should i use divinci, or just use shot cut? I feel that i need more audio options, like a premier pro would offer.
@@thejammingsisters2275 no watermark. It can be glitchy if you don't download the right bit and it does crash from time to time but it always saves your data.
I currently use Davi chi resolve and I love all the features but my obs recordings don’t open it so I have to convert my videos to another format which makes the quality drop
I have never used iMovie. I started editing with humble Windows movie maker. I tried upgrading to Davinci Resolve, but it was too much for my laptop. Shotcut is fast and reliable. You should definitely give it a shot, after watching a couple of tutorials.
Shortcut playback lags a lot on my PC. My specs are better than the min req..... but still it always becomes choppy when I add effects. Does this happen on your system too ?
DaVinci Resolve hands down. It is definitely for professional editors but there are tons of tutorials for it. However I don't like Fusion as the node based format is still very confusing to me. I much prefer After Effects timeline interface.
Great vid, I have a horrible laptop. Are there any video editors for a less powerful laptop and work well. And also I use Hitfilm Express, which does not work very well on my laptop. Another question, How do you make those animations with you sitting on a word or you skating on the time stamps.
"Are there any video editors for a less powerful laptop and work well." Shotcut because it has preview scaling and proxy. You can find both preview scaling and proxy under "settings". Use both preview scaling and proxy together and you will reduce the lag by a lot if not all.
Thanks Omar, have you tried WeVideo? It's an online video editing software so it won't affect your computer! Haha good question, we did that on a greenscreen!
I have been using Sony Vegas for 5 years and it’s just packed up on me and stopped working I needed new software and fast this seems to be prefect thank you
Thanks for this video it's very helpful. I've used iMovie on my iMac for years and been very happy with it. However, it won't run on Mac OS Catalina (10.15.7) and requires Big Sur. My iMac is 8 years old and can't update to Big Sur so Apple have left us users of an older iMac high and dry with no alternative. I'm going to download Shotcut to see if it will be a suitable replacement and I'll let you know what I think
Best video editing is keinemaster iMovie No music catalogue was good at first but they updated it and now it has no music cancel lock which is bloody is this to me I’ve been through and tried most and the one which I was given was somebody who really had a RUclips channel
good video and very clear to follow. thanks for that! As a hobby, far from pro, uw filmer, I started on Windows, went to iMovie on Mac and since Corona came, spent a lot of time with DavinciResolve. I would recommend DavinciResolve. Even if you just begin, using only the edit tab makes it very simple to use. In case you want to move on, you can dig into the color tab and fusion. It just offers everything and you can evolve as you please. There are tons of great tutorials for all levels out there. I just love it.
Open shot is what I am using,Been searching a long time for a editor that clicked,actually gave up on it for a long time then happened to stumble on it.
@@thomasshelby5850 Ah no problem. I use an old version of olive on my Linux system that has now been replaced. I'm sure the new version is also available on Windows & mac as well as Linux.
We have editing tutorials using an iPhone on the channel - in those videos we show how to colour grade your footage using those editing apps, hopefully one of these videos can help you out 👍
do you use Mac? if you do you should be able to connect your phone to your Mac gallery and if you want text use the app phonto on your phone save the text basically its like a photo you can make it transparent and save it to gallery and import it to iMovie with the green screen thingy or you could just make the background color green tap anywhere to add text and np👍
@@BritneyAlea Ik but that’s really really bad for people who have a schedule like me, overtime that stuff makes it take way longer to edit, I’m probably just gonna save up for premiere pro or Sony vagas
Ya no doubt that iMovies is really very good and balanced software but the only thing causes its downfall is the limited features offered... And on the top is its limited layers...only two at a time... Second no normal text editor only templates.... I moved to HITFILMS EXPRESS but its roughly made for Macs.... Its rough (not optimised)
imovie is my favoraite, it does not have that much advanced option or something, but over all it's very good for beginners like me, and most importantly, it's free :)
If you're editing a video on IMovie for youtube it is very bad quality.... currently, I'm looking for other video editors for my youtube channel. but IMovie for youtube videos doesn't give the best quality.
Hi Justin, I've been using VSDC for quite a while and just today tried out shotcut because it shows me the audio spectrum and it has more keyboard shortcuts. But Im having trouble exporting. It exports in very low quality. Wich are the best settings? And, should I just stick to VSDC? (I make youtube videos)
I wanna create movie reaction videos. I started using iMovie and I dont wanna change to other programs cause I find them soooo hard. iMovie is easy and I used it on my iPad 8th gen. Even though it’s easy, it is sooooooooo slow when I try to cut small parts of the movie and my reaction so I thought, better just add the movie, save the whole file (like 2 hours of the full movie and myself reaction to it), and then once it’s saved, just create a new project, and on this new project just cut the parts you dont need. Honestly until that point I thought I had solutions, but when I tried to save the 1st project it just wasnt accepted. So I had to take the movie off completely. And now I’m trying to save just my 2-hour-reaction. And I guess that I will have to use another program, in order to be able to add the movie also to my project, and cut parts of it. This is so so so frustrating I dont know what to do, I dont wanna use other programs. And even if I’ll try to, I doubt that I’ll be able to add the movie and save the final file successfully
That happened to me... and I lost an entire project that I spent 4 hours in :( I left shotcut and went to olive, does the job honestly, and doesn't crash anytime
@@thebrokeshinigami3017 that used to work for me but nowadays when I open it, it won't let me access it and instead prompts me to buy the payed version

Best video editing is keinemaster iMovie No music catalogue was good at first but they updated it and now it has no music cancel lock which is bloody is this to me I’ve been through and tried most and the one which I was given was somebody who really had a RUclips channel
are these recommended using on a 2015 Mac?
Im pretty sure you can idk I have a Mac but mines is a little older then yours
pls tell how to download imovie in macos catalina in 10.15.7
good video and very clear to follow. thanks for that!
As a hobby, far from pro, uw filmer, I started on Windows, went to iMovie on Mac and since Corona came, spent a lot of time with DavinciResolve.
I would recommend DavinciResolve. Even if you just begin, using only the edit tab makes it very simple to use. In case you want to move on, you can dig into the color tab and fusion. It just offers everything and you can evolve as you please. There are tons of great tutorials for all levels out there. I just love it.
That's awesome to hear! I'm glad you enjoyed the tutorial, Have fun editing 😃 👍
Open shot is what I am using,Been searching a long time for a editor that clicked,actually gave up on it for a long time then happened to stumble on it.
iMovie is great except I cant edit video files that I have recorded from OBS studio into iMovie
Currently using olive editor on my pc. Did have openshot but olive seems far more stable and getting better as time goes on
is it free?
@@thomasshelby5850 yes it is free
@@steveoutdoors5964 omg thank you so much i wasnt sure that you will answer cuz your comment was a year ago !
@@thomasshelby5850 Ah no problem. I use an old version of olive on my Linux system that has now been replaced. I'm sure the new version is also available on Windows & mac as well as Linux.
Hitfilm is definitely worth a mention, I switched from Resolve.
How he add a screen in starting of his video?
thanks for telling me this im going to use iMovie for my RUclips channel!
No problem, all the best with your edits 👍 - Hazel, PV Team
I am just starting my channel and this is amazing advice thanks so much for making these
That's cool, You're welcome!
Awesome video Justin . Do you have a video of colour grading on iPhone?
We have editing tutorials using an iPhone on the channel - in those videos we show how to colour grade your footage using those editing apps, hopefully one of these videos can help you out 👍
Justin Brown - Primal Video thanks, I’ll check them out.
Filmora is really good but it ceep freezing for me
That’s exactly what’s happening with me too. It’s annoying.
Imovie doesn't have a plain text option, like literally every text option has an animation
do you use Mac? if you do you should be able to connect your phone to your Mac gallery and if you want text use the app phonto on your phone save the text basically its like a photo you can make it transparent and save it to gallery and import it to iMovie with the green screen thingy or you could just make the background color green tap anywhere to add text and np👍
You can add fonts to it, or use pic monkey, canva or photo.
@@BritneyAlea Ik but that’s really really bad for people who have a schedule like me, overtime that stuff makes it take way longer to edit, I’m probably just gonna save up for premiere pro or Sony vagas
Do the other two mentioned softwares have this option?
@@ShannyPaltoe i’m not sure
Nice now I know. Very informative video, thank you bro..
Glad you made it here! You're welcome! 😊
Lighworks even though it exports to 720 only mark and park is extremely easy to use tried using shotcut but to many problems
I use iMovie but I was looking for something more. Thanks for this video! 🙏🏻😊 It was very helpful!
No problem - so glad it helped!
Ya no doubt that iMovies is really very good and balanced software but the only thing causes its downfall is the limited features offered... And on the top is its limited layers...only two at a time...
Second no normal text editor only templates....
I moved to HITFILMS EXPRESS but its roughly made for Macs.... Its rough (not optimised)
Can u suggest any apps for video editing which I can download in my MacBook air 2017 model
Thank you for sharing your information, Justin. Very helpful content for a newbie like me. :)
You're welcome, May - happy to help 👍
what video editor do you use?
imovie is my favoraite, it does not have that much advanced option or something, but over all it's very good for beginners like me, and most importantly, it's free :)
best free versions for android
1.kinemaster
2.inshot
3.power director
best free apps window
1.blender
2.da vinci reslove
3.VSDC
Thanks darling
You are brilliant to the point and make it happen.
Thanks, Ross - cheers!
What do u use
great videos - Thanks for the tip in previous video about speeding up the playback in RUclips!
You're welcome!
If you're editing a video on IMovie for youtube it is very bad quality.... currently, I'm looking for other video editors for my youtube channel. but IMovie for youtube videos doesn't give the best quality.
Hi Justin, I've been using VSDC for quite a while and just today tried out shotcut because it shows me the audio spectrum and it has more keyboard shortcuts. But Im having trouble exporting. It exports in very low quality. Wich are the best settings? And, should I just stick to VSDC? (I make youtube videos)
Trying out VSDC and Kdenlive right now. I chose these two because they occupy the least resources on my computer.
Davinci Code keeps asking for a Activation Key. And I'm stuck :( Someone please help
brother justin - a big thanks to you.
Hey! You're welcome! 👍
I hate how imovies keep deleting audio off my recordings. It happens my macbook but not my ipad. Major defect I could't fix. :/
i downloaded davinci resolve 16 but it aint working for some reason.
oh , it doesn't import media files!!what to do??
you need a good computer sadly
I wanna create movie reaction videos. I started using iMovie and I dont wanna change to other programs cause I find them soooo hard. iMovie is easy and I used it on my iPad 8th gen. Even though it’s easy, it is sooooooooo slow when I try to cut small parts of the movie and my reaction so I thought, better just add the movie, save the whole file (like 2 hours of the full movie and myself reaction to it), and then once it’s saved, just create a new project, and on this new project just cut the parts you dont need. Honestly until that point I thought I had solutions, but when I tried to save the 1st project it just wasnt accepted. So I had to take the movie off completely. And now I’m trying to save just my 2-hour-reaction. And I guess that I will have to use another program, in order to be able to add the movie also to my project, and cut parts of it. This is so so so frustrating I dont know what to do, I dont wanna use other programs. And even if I’ll try to, I doubt that I’ll be able to add the movie and save the final file successfully
It was really helpful video and your other videos are also great for RUclips creators.
So glad it helped! All the best for you fellow RUclips creator 👍
Thanks sooo much Justin!,it was so useful I edited my video with this!!!!!
That's cool! Glad you made it 👍
Thank you! Fantastic video!!!
You're welcome - glad you enjoyed it! 😊
shotcut can crash randomly i have found with editing with hours on end so constantly save or you might loose everything it sucks trust me
That happened to me... and I lost an entire project that I spent 4 hours in :(
I left shotcut and went to olive, does the job honestly, and doesn't crash anytime
@@ItsNicolau yea im not the only one
Use VideoPad Video Editor Never Crashed For Me And It's Very Easy
@@thebrokeshinigami3017 that used to work for me but nowadays when I open it, it won't let me access it and instead prompts me to buy the payed version
@@yourlocalpostman Get A Crack Lol Need One?
I've been using Davinci Resolve 16 even before watching this video, and lemme tell you its the BEST.
How taxing on your computer is it? What would you say is base system requirement
