This is an optimal way because VSDC will automatically detect all the parameters of your video and adjust the project parameters accordingly. First, you can use the “Import content” icon on the start screen when you launch the program (illustrated above). There are several ways to import files to VSDC. So, prepare yourself a large mug of coffee (or whatever helps you stay focused), sit back, and launch VSDC on your PC to practice new skills right away.īy the way, we encourage you to always make sure you’ve installed the latest version of VSDC from our official website.
We’ll show you how to perform the most essential basic actions in VSDC: cutting, cropping, rotating, and more.
And that’s exactly what we’ll cover below. Especially if you’ve never worked with a non-linear video editor before. On the other hand, before you jump into exploring all these fancy video editing tricks, you’ll need to get familiar with the basics. Partly because of the non-linear video editing technique it allows for using, and partly because of its mighty feature-set (have you checked our color correction tools yet? Masking? Animation?). Still, even in that case it is much nicer to use than the alternatives available for macOS.When we talk about VSDC, we like to describe it as a professional-level video editing software. The only "serious" complaint I have right now is that it does not have a version for macOS, which is an issue since I switched away from Windows, so I have to use VM in order to use it. A bunch of features are locked behind a paywall but to me they are worth the yearly charge, but I understand that not everyone likes that, especially since "Free" is in the name. Lots of features got added ever since I started using it years ago.
There is a gigantic set of features that is basically all I need, highly customisable too. It's a shame I haven't seen more editors work that way. and this is to me still the most intuitive way there could be.
I especially like how you can just drag elements around, resize, group, rotate etc. I've tried a lot of video editors, but this one is the one I prefer the most.
