If you are a novice who wants to learn editing or you have a need for video production but the frequency is not high , or you are a professional editor, then I will highly recommend you to use editing. The reason for the first recommendation is nothing more than because it is free unless you If you use the VIP function , you will not be charged any fees for clipping. The second reason for recommendation is that it has a lot of built-in materials, not only special effects, sound filters, but also movie templates, which are very helpful for novices and even those who need to appear frequently. For filmmakers, it can save a lot of time. The third reason for recommendation is that the AI function provided by the video editor is very powerful and intelligently produces subtitles. This should be familiar to everyone. In the past, you may need to type verbatim drafts and use other software to add subtitles. For the time frame , but the function of editing and screening is that it not only intelligently produces subtitles , but the probability of error is usually not high. From my own experience, even if there is noise in the background, it can still recognize it clearly. This is special to me. The amazing thing is that it can even generate videos only through text , but I don’t recommend this feature. I suggest that if you watch your video yourself, forget it and put it on YouTube or other platforms, it’s best to avoid copyright disputes. Because the source of those videos is not clear, of course, this software also has shortcomings and shortcomings. We will talk about it later. First of all, let’s introduce the clipping software . After this shortcut is opened, it will run out of this page . You can directly click to start creating. You can also modify its settings. If the computer can’t run 4K material at present, you can find the global settings . Click performance here and there will be a proxy mode. Tick it and press save , so that after you import the material, the system will automatically convert it into a proxy file. You can also modify the location where the proxy file is stored. If you don’t know what a proxy file is, you can watch the video I made before. You can modify the editing performance of the teaching draft made by the file. Here, it should be noted that if you delete the draft directly, the original file cannot be recovered. Click to start creating. We will come to this panel. If you have If you have used Premiere or Da Vinci or Final cut or other editing software , you will find that it is very user-friendly when you open the editing software . Basically, the basic functions you are looking for are already on this panel. You don’t need to go one by one. It will be very convenient to find and use. Here you can see four blocks , which are the adjustment area of the material player and the timeline media. Click Import here to import your material. Clipping itself has a material library and also has categories for you. You can find the material you need here. In the audio part, you can use the sound effects and music you want to use , but there may be copyright issues in the use of music. Here you need to pay attention to the sound effects . You can find a lot of variety show effects. I slowly searched for text on the Internet. Here you can see that it is divided into several categories. The default text is that you can make your own text and then click the save preset on the control panel on the right so that you don’t need to redo the next time you need it . Variety art characters , and there are many built-in word card styles. If you want to make a lot of variety art word card movies , then you are very suitable to use clipping , because it is not enough for the free version. Let’s grab the word cards first. Then click on the animation in the upper right corner. There are in, out, and loops here. You can make the word card appear in the way you want. You can also adjust its second speed. Use it directly and modify the text next to it , but you can only adjust the text. There is no way to modify the animation itself. The following smart subtitle clipping built-in AI can automatically generate subtitles, but the default is simplified Chinese. You can export the subtitles as TXT files. Click export here, we don’t want to export the video, we click export subtitles to modify its format , open the folder, it will appear here, then copy this document, use word or Google Translate to convert simplified Chinese characters into traditional characters , and then return to Clipping Use script matching to paste your traditional Chinese document directly , but be aware that it has a limit of 5000 characters. If it exceeds 5000 characters, you will need to do the same repetitive action to start matching. There will be commercially available text marked in the clipped text You can use it according to your needs. Here we can adjust the style of the subtitles. If the subtitles are too long and want to be divided into sections, we can also directly click on the subtitles to target the places I want to modify. You can directly press enter It will be divided into paragraphs . If you want to shorten it, you can go to the beginning of the subtitle and click delete (backspace) , it will return to the previous paragraph, and then I won’t say much about the sticker effects. It can be used to decorate the video to make the picture richer. Click any one You can preview the effect. The transition part can be directly pulled down to connect the two materials. If you don’t want it, just click and click DELETE to delete the filter part. There are many free choices , but you can only adjust its intensity. If you want For dimming and grading, you can click Adjust to pull the custom adjustment to the time axis. You can adjust the basic grading HSL curve and the color wheel here on the right panel. After the adjustment, you can also click to save the precolor and it will be Save your presets. If you don’t like the built-in filters, you can also import your own LUT here. It will appear here. If you want to produce a film faster, you can also click on the template. There are available ones here. For the template , you only need to replace the material and modify the text. Then we come to the control area. For different materials, different control panels will appear. For example, filters can only adjust the intensity and special effects can only adjust a few parameters. Clipping also has a built-in motion tracking. Click on the function of motion tracking , then move the point to the object you want to track, click to start tracking, it will be processed automatically , then we will get an automatic tracking motion effect. In addition to basic adjustments, the image can also be keyed. With smart matting , it will become like this. It can also beautify. Some functions can only be used by VIPs. It can also be used for skin smoothing . It can also change the speed and animation by itself. It can also adjust the color for a single image. Adjustment can also do AI noise reduction. I was only 4 years old at the time and had to give a thank you note to a 5 year old. I don’t know who gave me this task. I was only 4 years old at the time. For the part of my task timeline, it will automatically help you divide tracks for different material types For example, the text will only be on the text track, and the filter will only be on the filter track, which will greatly avoid accidentally mixing the shortcut keys of the material . If you have Premiere or Final cut, click the upper right corner and there will be a shortcut key on the left of the VIP. In the settings, you can import the settings of Premiere or Final cut. You can also make settings in the video clip by yourself. Then go back to the timeline and you can see that the commonly used tools are placed here, such as selecting split to the right. Select left, select all, crop left, crop right, and you will see the recording. If you have a microphone, click it to record. Turn on the magnetic suction of the main track. I would recommend using this option for rough cutting because it can only be used for If the main track is multi-track editing , the joints will easily get lost. Click the preview axis, and you can directly move the mouse to preview. When our movie editing is completed, click the export button in the upper right corner, and you can modify the title and storage location according to your needs. Format to set the subtitles and also output SRT files so that you can upload them to YouTube for CC subtitles in the future. Next, I will demonstrate how to edit a short film with video clips and music. All transitions and effects come from clipping. You can refer to the built-in version of Ying Ying to see how far you can do it with the latest version of Ying Ying. I have already selected the music I need , and then drag it to the timeline and click on the music. You will find it above. There is an automatic stepping point , which has captured the rhythm points you will need to find for you . There are two styles to choose from, and you can also make cuts by yourself. Then I will place the material according to the rhythm. In some scenes, I will let it change the speed a little because of the music. It’s three minutes long , but I only want one and a half minutes, so I’ll cut out the ending and then find a minute and a half where I want to connect. Let this song have an ending. I use this method because some endings can be faded in and out directly. It will not be suitable for this lens. After adding a variable speed, it still looks a bit flat, so I will zoom it to create a somewhat oppressive and compact feeling. This lens is from the lower left to the upper right to make a curved mirror. It is suitable for starting and ending , so I added a reverse here to let it reach the top and then reversed it . After that, there are some shots of the body after polishing. Like this wiping action, I think it can be used as a transition , so I put a noise. After the transition, there is a comparison of polished and unpolished shots, and then the color correction will start. You can make adjustments by yourself, but I think you can use the built-in filters directly, so I picked a black panther and looked for some suitable for shooting in the sound effect side. Put the sound of the wax machine in the right place and finally put the subtitles on. The subtitles can also use animation effects. Next, let’s take a look at the finished product. The above is the short film I edited with the clipping. Then we mentioned the clipping. Advantages I will also talk about its disadvantages. The first one is that if you want to use the VIP function of Jianying, you will need to register for the mainland version of Douyin across the border , and if you have to pay to use it, it will be more troublesome. Will you update me in the future? I don’t know yet , but if you think there is no difference, the functions of the free version are already very complete. The second is that if you compare it with professional editing software like Premiere Da Vinci or Final Cut, you will find that there are quite a lot of restrictions on editing and projection. In terms of operation, you may not be as free as using these software, such as back matting. You can freely modify the shape on Premiere , but there are not many effects in clipping. AI intelligence is very powerful. But it can’t achieve 100% effect at present , but it is a very good auxiliary tool. The third is that there is no way to use plug-in programs for clipping itself. It is unusable inside and there is no way to adjust the font size of its interface , so your eyes may be a little hard when reading these words . In terms of the value it provides, I personally feel that Editing is already very sincere. In the future, it will continue to add more professional functions. The last point is my own idea. I have seen many people use editing software to create a sense of superiority . What kind of method do you use? Silhouette film software, they are just a tool, the point is what you want, what is the customer's needs, what is a good tool, of course, can make the film even better, but the premise is that you have the ability you should have. Good tools If my skills are not good enough, I can’t cut good videos. Instead of pursuing better equipment and better tools , it’s better to spend more time to cultivate your own aesthetics. After seeing more things, you will know what you need to see through. What kind of tool to use to achieve the goal ?
