One of the main advantages of Movavi Video Editor is considered to be free, as well as the possibilities that it contains. The program is completely in Russian and allows you to easily record video using a webcam, simply and quickly perform its editing, as well as add various effects to your videos and overlay audio tracks.
Before working directly with the video editor, make sure that there is enough space on your hard disk to save the project and record the video captured from the webcam.
Capturing video from a webcam
To capture video, first make sure your webcam is properly connected to your computer or laptop. After that, open the program and click the "Capture Video" button. A window will appear in which you need to select the device from which the video will be captured, as well as the microphone, if you want to record sound. When everything is ready, click on the "Start Capture" button. Once the process is complete, click the "Finish" button.
Video editing
After the video is on your hard drive, add the video to the editor window. Next, use the slider to select the desired movie clips. After that, you need to set the pointer to the area that you want to edit and use the "Cut Fragment" button.
In the event that you need to cut a certain fragment from the video, you should click on the "Set left border" button, and then "Cut fragment". You can make transitions between the selected fragments. To do this, go to the "Transitions" section. After choosing the one you like, just move it to the desired place in the video. And don't forget to test the transition by clicking on the Play button.
Adding titles
To add titles to the video, you must first click on the fragment in which you want to insert the text. Next, you need to open the "Titles" tab, in which enter the titles in the text field, adjust the image and click "Insert". The location of the titles on the screen can be easily changed by simply moving the borders of the titles on the screen. Also, the time of appearance and decay of titles can be edited.
Insert audio tracks
To liven up your video, it's a good idea to add some audio content to it. To do this, you need to open the file explorer, select the audio files, and then simply drag and drop them into the "Audio" column. If you need to change the volume of an audio recording, you can do this by opening its settings.
Saving a movie
After the work on the creation of the video is completed, open the "Save as video file" tab, select the desired format and the directory in which the video will be saved.
