This is a guest post by Wondershare
Video editing seems like a hugely time-consuming task, especially for newbies. But where tools like Photoshop require extreme skills, Filmora appears to be easier than most software available in the market. Plus, it includes various tools, effects, and templates, which is pretty fascinating for both new and existing users.
Part 1: About Filmora
Filmora is a video editing tool by Wondershare Technology Corp available on both Mac and Windows operating systems. The software gives you numerous ways to edit and retouch your videos for different purposes.
Filmora is a robust editing tool that includes a simple menu and user-friendly interface. Moreover, you can purchase the software or download Filmora to test the program for free.
So, let’s begin with the complete Filmora review for you to judge whether or not it’s a suitable video editing tool that fulfills your requirements.
Part 1: Main Features
Media Tab

The ‘Media’ tab is the first option you will see on the main Filmora screen. As you click on this tab, you will see different categories, such as:
- Project Media
- Shared Media
- Sample Color
- Sample Video
- Sample Green Screen
Project Media
The “Project Media” category stays empty until you import media from your computer on the software. Once the media is imported, all the file(s) are placed here under this option. And every time you import a new file, it will go directly in this menu.
Shared Media
The “Shared Media” category has a similar purpose. That means your imported media is stored here and can be used for all your upcoming projects. However, unlike the “Project Media,” any imported files under the “shared media” folder remain accessible even if you start a new project.
Sample Color
The next category in the ‘Media’ tab is “Sample Color.” This option includes blank screens in 25 different colors. You can pick any color if you desire a simple background for your text animation.
Sample Video
The “Sample Video” category consists of 20 short clips. Some of them are camera recorded videos related to:
- Beach
- Cherry Blossom
- Island
- Food
- Travel
While the rest are animated clips, such as “Countdown,” which has nine variations.
Sample Green Screen
The “Sample Green Screen” is a great way to add overlays to your videos using Filmora. There are ten green screen templates you can pick for your clips, such as:
- Explosion templates
- Film template
- K.O. template
- VS template
- Lightning template
- Opening template
- Snowing template
- Speed Up template
- Vintage template
All you need to do is drag any green screen template to the timeline and place it above the main video.

Double click on the green screen template to see video editing options. Then put a check on the “Chroma Key” button, and view the preview screen to see the effects, like this:

As you will play the clip, you will be able to see the template overlaying the main video, like this:


Audio Tab

Right next to the media lies the “Audio” tab. This is the place where you can find numerous audio clips for your videos.
You just need to click on the “Audio” option from the above menu, click on the music category of your choice, pick and drag the most suitable audio file to the timeline, and synchronize it with the video file.
FIlmora has a massive audio library, which includes the following categories:
- Special events/occasions sounds (like holidays, Christmas, etc.)
- Sound Effects
- Environmental Sound (nature, waterfall, etc.)
- Young & Bright
- Tender & Sentimental
- Rock
- Folk
- Electronic
- Beat Music
- Travel Vlog sound clips
- My music (music from your PC)
You can also import music from your computer by clicking on the “My Music” category from the above list menu.
Titles Tab

With Filmora, adding titles and texts to your videos is not a big deal.
You can explore the “Titles” tab to see different text templates, such as:
- Basic text
- Titles
- Openers
- Subtitles
- Lower Thirds
- Callout
- End Credits
- Social Media
- Gaming
- Education and tutorial
- Travel
- Sports
- Business
- Food
- Pets
- Hollywood
- Events
And many more!
That means, whether you are making a video for your business, travel blog, social media, YouTube music channel, or anything, you can pick a relevant title/text template from the above categories to make your videos more engaging and fun for the audience.
Transitions Tab

Sudden jumps between multiple video clips can make some outstanding clips annoying to the eyes. But it appears to be that Filmora has already solved this problem by offering different types of video transitions to help you create smoother videos without noticeable cuts and breaks.
Some of the most interesting video transitions available in Filmora are:
- Ripple & Dissolve
- Speed Blur
- Warp
- 3D
- Slideshow
- Gaming
- Travel
- Stylize
- Plain shapes
- Wedding & Love
- Linear
Now, each of the above video transition categories includes multiple transition templates.
For instance, the “Ripple & Dissolve” category has 30+ transition templates. Similarly, the “Wedding & Love” category has 19 templates.
And as you roam around the transitions section, you will find a lot more suitable video transitions that would fit your needs.
Effects Tab

Filmora offers a broad range of effects for video editing. So let’s review them one by one.

Elements
You can add motion graphics to your videos to make them look more attractive. To do that, you can click the “Elements” tab to check out the entire list of templates.

Some of the most popular “Elements” templates are categorized under:
- Sticker – 362 templates
- VFX – 200+ templates
- Meme – 100+ templates
- Social Media – 100 templates
- Background – 98 templates
- Arrow – 7 templates
- Emoji – 80 templates
- Hand Drawn – 21 templates
And there is more to unearth.
So here’s an example of how Filmora Elements work on your video. The screenshot below shows the video clip without elements.

Simply dragging an element template (“Flame Wipe 2” in this case) above the main video clip on the timeline gives the video a whole new level of attractiveness.

Split Screen
Another admirable feature of Filmora is the Split Screen. While other video software requires advanced-level skills to play multiple videos on a single screen, Filmora makes the job easy.
By just clicking on the “Split Screen” tab, you can choose a template of your choice for your videos. And you can add up to 5 videos on different predetermined positions.

So, for example, if you wish to play two videos together, you can click on the template and drag it to the timeline. The preview screen will also display the template, as you can see in these two images:


Then, simply drag the two different video clips and place them one by one on each section on the preview screen, like this:

Once you’re done, you can click on the “Play” button below the preview screen to enjoy watching two videos on a single screen.
So once again, Filmora has proved to be a time-saving video editing software for both professionals and beginners.

Simple Interface

Filmora is a user-friendly video editor developed for all types of users. Unlike other popular video software, Filmora comes with straightforward options. And every tool is easy to find without unearthing several tabs.
Another fun thing about Filmora is that you get tons of ready-to-use effects and filters, saving your time. Whereas, compared with other video editing programs, you are not required to create effects by playing with the adjustments in Filmora. Almost every essential option is there right in front of your eyes, as you can see in the screenshot below.

The next ease is the “Preview” screen.

It does not only help you play and stop the video, but you can also enter the “Preview Quality and Display Setting” with a single click on the “TV” icon.

Also, you take the screenshot, adjust the volume of the video, and enter the full-screen mode right from the preview screen options.
Moreover, some other essential editing tools are accessible by simply double-clicking the video, title, etc., on the preview screen.
You can also render your video, add markers, record direct voiceovers, enter the audio mixer, and zoom in/zoom out.

And another exciting thing about Filmora is that you can also record your videos from your webcam and PC screen without wasting time searching these options.

Supported Formats
Input Formats
Whether you’re using Filmora on macOS or Windows, you find ease when it comes to uploading media, as this software support almost all input formats.
For example, Filmora supports all video formats, such as .mpeg, .mpg, .m1v, .m2v, .m4v, .mp4, .3g2, .3gp, .3gp2, .mov (MPEG 4/MJPEG only), .tod, .mod, .dv, .mts, .m2t, .m2ts, .f4v, .flv, .asf, .wmv, .avi, .mkv (MPEG 4/MJPEG only), .ogv, .webm, .vro, and .vbo.
Similarly, you can add your audio media when editing on Filmora in all major audio formats, including .wav, .mp3, .ogg, .m4a, .aif/aiff, and . flac.
Likewise, Filmora allows you to input photo in .png, .jpg, .tif/tiff, and .bmp formats.
Output Formats
While Filmora supports similar input formats for both macOS and Windows users, the software offers different output formats for these two operating systems. Although those aren’t mountainous differences, you should still know them before starting with Filmora.
So, for the Windows users, once you are done with your video editing, you can export the video in audio/video formats like .wmv, .mov, .mp4, .avi, .ts, .f4v, .mkv, .mp3, .gif, .mpg, .webm, and .3gp.
On the other hand, Mac users cannot export their final creation in the .webm format. However, they have other output formats available, such as .m4a and ProRes, and all other formats available to Windows users.
When it’s about supporting devices for Windows users, Filmora supports smartphones, Wii, Sony TV, Xbox One, Android Generic, PS4, Nexus, Galaxy S, Apple TV, iPod, iPad, and iPhone.
Contrarily, Filmora on macOS supports all Apple devices (iPhone, iPad, etc.) and PSP, PlayStation, and Android Generic, except for Nexus, Galaxy S, Xbox, Wii, Sony TV, and PS4.
Both Windows and macOS users can directly upload videos on YouTube and Vimeo. Moreover, Filmora supports DVD formats, like DVD folders, ISO disc image files, and DVD discs.
Part 4: Video Editing Tools
You have learned about the main features in the previous part, so let’s review what video editing tools you get in Filmora.

Undo and Redo
Starting from the left, the first tool you will find on the timeline is the “Undo” and “Redo” buttons.
You can use the “Undo” function to correct a previous mistake. Whereas the “Redo” button helps you restore previous actions which were undone with the help of the “Undo” button.
For example, if you have applied any effect on a video clip and now you want to remove it, you can simply click on the “Undo” button.

Delete
Right next to the “Undo” and “Redo” buttons lies the “Delete” button.
You can delete any video clip by selecting it with the help of your mouse and then clicking on the “Delete” button.

Split/Cut and Trim
It is easy to find the “Split” function on the timeline options. Or, you can also find it on the orange “Playhead” in Filmora.

The split tool helps you cut your video by placing the playhead at any point on the clip and then clicking on the “Scissor” icon.
Furthermore, trimming any video clip is way too simple. You can do it by clicking the media on the timeline, hovering your cursor at the end of the video clip, and while holding the right button of your mouse, dragging the clip backward or forward to trim the shot.

Crop
Through the “Crop” icon, you choose to cut any unnecessary or unwanted portion of the video from its mainframe.

Pan and Zoom
With the same “Crop” option, you can also use the “Pan and Zoom” function to embed any type of animated transition on a still image or still images on any motion picture.

Speed

The “Speed” function consists of 6 different options.
- Custom Speed: You can customize the speed of your video as per your need.
- Slow: You can slow the video speed by choosing from 0.5X to 0.01x.
- Fast: You can choose a range from 2x to 100x to make your videos play faster than the usual speed.
- Normal: Select the “Normal” option takes your video back to its original speed.
- Freeze Frame: This allows you to freeze a particular scene from the video.
- Reverse: The “Reverse” function in Filmora rewinds the entire video clip.
Advanced Color Tools

The “Advanced Color Tools” helps you do the following things:
- Color Correction
- Color Match
Color Correction
The color correction comes with a number of “Presets” that you can directly apply to your video. Moreover, you can choose the “Adjust” tab to play with a variety of basic color correction options, such as:
- White Balance
- Color and Light
- HSL
- Vignette
- 3D LUT
Color Match
Contrarily, the “Color Match” tool enables color correction actions on all the video clips rather than color correcting each clip individually.
Duration
If you feel like reducing or extending your video length, you can use the “Duration” tab adjust to adjust the timing. However, this tool also affects the speed of your video.

Motion Tracking
Have you ever wondered how text or an image follows a particular object or character in a video? Well, it’s due to the “Motion Tracking” feature. Gladly, Filmora makes it simple to add motion tracking to your videos.


You just need to add the video on the timeline, place the “Playhead” on the point where you want to add motion tracking. Then, set the motion tracking box on the target (object/person). Now, choose a template from “Elements” and place it above the main video clip on the timeline. Lastly, select the element from the motion tracking option to start tracking.
Title and Text Editing
Filmora gives you trouble-free title and text editing. To do that, you just need to select the text or title that appears on the preview screen and begin typing the text.
You can also choose a text style from the “Text Preset” menu and change the text color, spacing, alignment, and more from the “Settings.”

Key Framing
The “Key Framing” option makes your videos look cool by adding customized animations to your videos and static images.

For example, you can overlap a “second clip” on the main video by adjusting the opacity and positioning the scene with the help of the key framing option in Filmora. You can use this tool to enter from one scene to another smoothly.

Extra Editing Tools
There are more editing options when you click on the “Edit” tool on the Filmora timeline, including:
Transform
The “Transform” option makes you rotate, flip, scale, and reposition your videos.
Compositing
This option allows you to select blending modes and choose an opacity level for your video.
Stabilization
The “Stabilization” tool helps you make shaky videos smooth by adjusting the “Smooth Level” and “Edge Processing.”
Chroma Key
The “Chroma Key” works when you choose a “Green Screen” for your video. This option can help you adjust the offset, tolerance, edge thickness, and edge feather levels.
Another excellent option in the “Chroma Key” menu is the “Alpha Channel.” You can use this option to turn your image into black and white. And everything that will be turned into black will become transparent in your video, whereas the white parts of the image will stay unchanged.
Lens Correction
With the “Lens Correction” tool, you can rectify any distorted clip. You just need to select the camera model you used to record the video, select resolution, and adjust lens correction levels.
Picture in Picture
You can add a secondary video clip or image over the main video and view them on a single screen. This creates the picture-in-picture effect that Filmora makes quite easy for the users.

Drop Shadow
Using the “Drop Shadow” effect makes your video more lively, especially when you are making a picture-in-picture effect.
There are other options in the dropdown menu like the “Distance” to adjust the shadow level. Similarly, you can be hands-on with other options, such as blur, opacity, shadow direction, and shadow color, to add more engagement to your video.

Part 5: Audio Editing Tools
Although Filmora is known for its exceptional video editing features, it also offers magnificent tools to edit audio files.
The editing process begins when you import your audio file from the PC or pick any audio template from the “Media” tab and drag it down to the timeline.
Next, you can effortlessly place the audio under the video clip or move it freely to the left and right until you find a perfect spot to fit in the music. More to this, you can also detach the audio from the video and edit it separately.
And if talking specifically about the audio editing tools, some editing options like undo/redo, delete, cut, split, trim, speed, and duration are similar to video editing.
However, you get to see the big bag of audio editing effects when clicking the “Edit” tab on the timeline.

And here’s what you get on the menu:
Fade In and Fade Out

The “Fade In” and “Fade Out” sound effects in Filmora help you enhance or reduce the volume of your audio file.
You can use the “Fade In” effect to gently increase the volume as the video goes forward. Whereas the “Fade Out” effect makes the loud volume disappears gradually.
So feel free to apply these effects wherever you think is best in your audio.
Pitch

Filmora gives you the option to change the pitch of your audio. You can adjust the bar to the left to bring the audio to a low musical scale. And, moving the bar to the right changes the pitch to a high musical scale.
The pitch adjustment range allows you to set the pitch anywhere from -10 to 10, whereas you can adjust the bar to zero (0) if you want to keep the original pitch.
Equalizer

Filmora’s audio equalizer is bliss when it comes to changing audio frequencies. The option comes with presets, which include:
- Classic
- Dance
- Low Bass
- Sparkle
- Soft
- Hard Rock
- Rock’n’Roll
- Pop
- Soft
- Blues
- Country
- Acoustic
- Folk
Contrarily, you can also make your own frequencies by clicking the “Customize” button, or you can choose any preset and make changes to it without a hitch.
Denoise

If you wish to eliminate unwanted background noises that you captured while filming the shot, then the “Denoise” option is undoubtedly a remedy.
Additionally, you can use your mouse to adjust the denoise bar to make the effect “weak,” “mild,” or “strong” on the audio.
Ducking

With Filmora, it is easy to add a narrator’s voice to your video. You can check on the “Ducking” option if you want the narrator’s voice clear without deleting the background music.
What happens is that this ducking effect assures the main voiceover stays above any other background music by reducing the volume of other clips.
That means you can hear the instrumental track and clearly listen to a person’s voice. And just like the denoise, you can adjust the ducking effect from weak to strong, depending on your preference.
Auto Normalization

The “Auto Normalization” is a new kid at the block. The tool helps adjust the volume of all the selected audio files in Filmora to a standard European 23.0LUFS loudness level.
So, if you’re having trouble mixing your audio files’ volume, you can use this tool to allow the program to make automatic volume adjustments.
Audio Track Panning

Your audio is equally distributed to the left and right stereo.
In other words, by default, any audio clip, when imported or detached from the video, transfer the sound waves to both left and right channels (speakers).
But, with the audio track panning, you can control the transference of these audio signals to either left or right speakers.
So, if you are panning your track to the left, the maximum audio of that particular track will be heard in your left speaker.
This is a useful audio editing tool, especially if your video has multiple audio tracks. You can use the panning option to make sure the listener can hear all the sounds clearly.
Silence Detection

You can use the “Silence Detection” option to let Filmora automatically scan and eliminate any silent pauses present in your video, allowing your viewers to enjoy your videos without losing their interest.
The option saves your time as you don’t have to work frame by frame to detect the pauses and remove them one by one.
Audio Mixer
You can use the “Audio Mixer” from the toolbar below the preview screen to balance/pan and master the audio.

The Filmora audio mixer allows you to work on multiple video/audio tracks in a single window, allowing you to edit the audio files fast.
