Some believe it expensive, time-consuming, and difficult, and in some ways, they\u2019re right: many editing tools are expensive and hostile to beginners, forcing you to climb a steep learning curve that can take months or even years to master. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Thankfully, there&#8217;s a simpler way. We\u2019ve been testing a bunch of editing software to find the right balance between simplicity, features, and professional output. We believe we\u2019ve found just the right editing suite in <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.videosoftdev.com\/video-editor-pro\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">VSDC Video Editor Pro<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What makes VSDC Video Editor Pro so special? Well, let\u2019s start with the basics. The usual trimming, splicing, and cropping features are all there, so you can stitch multiple movie clips together, break them apart, or zoom in on interesting detail. You can also adjust colour, exposure, and contrast, as well as add sounds, effects, and transitions to really make your movie stand out. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-101238\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/05\/basics-1024x524.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"840\" height=\"430\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/05\/basics-1024x524.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/05\/basics-300x154.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/05\/basics-768x393.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/05\/basics-1200x614.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/05\/basics.jpg 1706w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 840px) 100vw, 840px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">But it&#8217;s the professional tools that really shine. Take the sub-pixel editor, for example. Sometimes you need to adjust ultra-fine detail to get the look you want, and this allows you to do it with cinematic precision. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There are also ten video mask types to choose from.\u00a0Video masking isolates individual objects in your video \u2013 a face or car, for example \u2013 so you can cut, highlight, or blur them for added realism, or combine them with other media to create something new. While these controls might take longer to master, they can transform your amateur videos into YouTube gold.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-101239\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/05\/basics2-1024x524.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"840\" height=\"430\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/05\/basics2-1024x524.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/05\/basics2-300x154.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/05\/basics2-768x393.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/05\/basics2-1200x614.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/05\/basics2.jpg 1706w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 840px) 100vw, 840px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You\u2019ve probably heard of \u201cgreen screening\u201d where you film in front of a uniform background so you can remove and replace it with something more interesting later. Video Editor Pro&#8217;s multiple chroma key support lets you do this in different colours, not just green, so you can match and remove the background without harming the foreground of your shot. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-101240\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/05\/result_of_resize.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"624\" height=\"399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/05\/result_of_resize.jpg 624w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/05\/result_of_resize-300x192.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 624px) 100vw, 624px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Of course, if you\u2019re pressed for time or don\u2019t want the hassle of manual control, you can select from Video Editor\u2019s extensive selection of preset functions and styles. With 4K support in almost every video file format, you won\u2019t need to do any irritating file conversion before you start, leaving you more time to create the perfect movie.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"sc-card-affiliation\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-affiliation__content\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/secure.avangate.com\/affiliate.php?ACCOUNT=VECTORAK&amp;AFFILIATE=45974&amp;PATH=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.videosoftdev.com%2Fvideo-editor-pro%3FAFFILIATE%3D45974&amp;AFFSRC=push\" class=\"sc-card-affiliation__badge\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">$24,19<\/a>\r\n\r\n        <div class=\"sc-card-affiliation__image\">\r\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/secure.avangate.com\/affiliate.php?ACCOUNT=VECTORAK&amp;AFFILIATE=45974&amp;PATH=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.videosoftdev.com%2Fvideo-editor-pro%3FAFFILIATE%3D45974&amp;AFFSRC=push\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\r\n                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/05\/5841368.jpg\">\r\n            <\/a>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n\r\n        <div class=\"sc-card-affiliation__body\">\r\n            <div class=\"sc-card-affiliation__text\">\r\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/secure.avangate.com\/affiliate.php?ACCOUNT=VECTORAK&amp;AFFILIATE=45974&amp;PATH=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.videosoftdev.com%2Fvideo-editor-pro%3FAFFILIATE%3D45974&amp;AFFSRC=push\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"sc-card-affiliation__title track-link\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">VSDC Video Editor Pro <\/a>\r\n                <p class=\"sc-card-affiliation__supplier\">\r\n                From: <strong>Video Soft Dev<\/strong>\r\n                <\/p>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n            <div class=\"sc-card-affiliation__cta\">\r\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/secure.avangate.com\/affiliate.php?ACCOUNT=VECTORAK&amp;AFFILIATE=45974&amp;PATH=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.videosoftdev.com%2Fvideo-editor-pro%3FAFFILIATE%3D45974&amp;AFFSRC=push\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"sc-card-affiliation__button\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BUY IT NOW<\/a>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n<p>We think Video Editor Pro is one of the best editing suites on the market.
