HitFilm Express can help you create your own movies. Its interface is quite similar to those of other video editors, so, if you have worked with any of them before, you will probably find it quite easy to use this one. Besides, there is a lot of learning resources, including video tutorials, as well as the support of a very active community of users. What is more, there are templates you can start from and you even have the possibility of creating your own for future work.

The program´s interface comes with various tabs, which allows you to work on different tasks within the same project simultaneously. Besides, it has detachable panels that you can hide or move to wherever you find most convenient. One central element is the timeline, which is where you compose your movies by dragging elements to the various tracks. It is also a great advantage that you can save various workspaces to use for different types of tasks.

The first step is usually importing the source files, which may be not only footage but also audio and pictures. Luckily, the editor supports importing a wide array of formats. Next, you can start placing the elements on the timeline. Luckily, you can use as many layers as you need. Not only that, layers can hold tracks, cameras and planes. Several editing operations such as arranging and trimming clips are allowed. Then, you can start adding effects and transitions while you preview the results. It is also possible to add texts and captions. more
