HItFilm Express is a free program that lets you edit and add special effects to your video files, thus making them suitable to upload to the most popular video-sharing sites or even to produce short or long films, music videos, or other more ambitious film projects.

After downloading and installing the program, you can set the video and audio properties, such as height and width, frame rate, aspect ratio, sample audio rate, and more. The program lets you open any video file you have recorded. You can import video files from several formats such as MP4, MPEG, and more. Then, you can trim the file or join it to another to form a sequence. Also, you can add video effects. This is perhaps the most interesting part of the program. It has several built-in effects that you can use to enrich your video, for example, there is an automatic color correction feature, as well as different blur types, gradings, lights, flares, distortions, and much more. If these effects are not enough for your project, you can purchase different effect sets from the program's main interface. The type of effects pack you need will depend on the result you are looking for. There are packs such as Sci-Fi Adventure, Destruction, Audio-Visual, and more. In general, the cost of the packs is affordable: between 10 and 50 bucks. The advantage is that you can purchase only those you need, but if you want them all, you will spend well beyond 100 dollars. more

Hello, I'm using a powerless computer with 32bit as system. I need to know if this program can work on 32bit system. Or if it's only 64bit.

Best editing I have ever used and I thought I would place this review to help support, it's an adventure through updates and support it. If you want it then I would HIGHLY recommend you get it as it is 99999999% worth it.
