Filmora video editor - simple and works well for beginners
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
I am an NLP Coach and Trainer. I create videos for YouTube and social media. I also create reels and shorts. Earlier I had to shoot the video and send it to the videographer to edit it: to add intro and outro, add captions, add transitions, add B-roll, add images, and text with effects and animations. Besides this I needed to cut the video appropriately to create reels and shorts from the long video. The videographer would charge very high and besides that it was a time consuming method. Since Filmora is easy to use and now equipped with AI, life has become easy.
Pros
- Add intro and outro
- Add transitions and effects
- Create short videos from a long video
- Has a huge library of assets
Cons
- The wlecome screen could be more beginner friendly
- The timeline operations could be more beginner friendly
- There is no facility to copy and apply the settings of one project to another.
Return on Investment
- I have saved a lot of money and time by not outsourcing the work to the videographer
- I have started posting more on social media by repurposing the long videos using Filmora's "Smart Short Clips" feature
- Now, any idea can be quickly converted into video using Filmora's "An Idea To Video" feature. It is just like Google's "Veo 2"
