Now there is a place in the lefthand column (that pops up with some digging around), but it renders the time in *seconds*. But if you click on that (say to jump forward or backward), it takes you all the way back to the beginning. It's on the lefthand side of the timeline. It's very frustrating to use when you're used to using a platform that is easy to learn and relatively intuitive.įor instance, while you can see how far into a video you are (e.g., 01:06:25). When I'm done it looks polished and professional, as if I had used a high-end editor, which I appreciate as building a small business means you don't want to go spending extensively on software. It's always a pleasure to use as I can make changes fast, add an effect, sometimes play around with what would look good, and not have to dedicate hours to editing anything.

I'm transitioning into teaching online, and I've used it to make my own promotional videos for various companies. I like that it doesn't have a steep learning curve that most video editors do, but it still allows you to do professional editing as you would on a premium software, and advanced edits. The interface is clean, simple and easy to get used to and adjust to for seamless editing, as well it being free to edit as many clips as you need to, no limits there. It's collaboration with Blender means it has those sleek looking 3D effects and titles built in as well, a nice quick way to add something extra to your project to make it stand out. I am impressed that the media library has so many options, that include built in effects, transitions, ability to use titles for vectors and fonts. The first feature that has to be mentioned is that this is free software, and that it offers being able to work in 4K.
