• My kid is interested in learning

  I was about 10 when I first discovered Vfx. I started out with a program called Hitfilm. Hitfilm has a free version plus a wide variety of youtube tutorials. It thought me the basics of 2D VFX. It is more beginner friendly than almost any other VFX software out there and all the official tutorials come with free project files and footage so that you can follow along. I haven't used Hitfilm in a few years and... Source: 11 months ago

• What open source or free software alternatives would you recommend?

  HitFilm as a video editor available cross platform. I use it as an alternative to Final Cut Pro on my Mac. Source: 11 months ago

• Film equipment recommendations for a long-form podcast

  Video Editing Software - Adobe Premiere or, if you use Linux, they have some pretty good free NLEs. An alternative I like to turn people on to is HitFilm. Source: 12 months ago

• What free program do you use to edit go pro videos to upload to youtube?

  Another free one (heard good things haven’t used): https://fxhome.com/product/hitfilm. Source: about 1 year ago

• Hello, I am new to all this. Could someone tell me where I can learn VFX and sound design so that I can create my own content?

  Learn by doing, and start off with some free VFX software such as HitFilm Express: https://fxhome.com/product/hitfilm. Source: about 1 year ago

• FFmpeg 7.0 Released

  "Regular" people don't really need FFMPEG. Regular people need tools with GUIs that have a non-generic purpose. So stuff like https://kdenlive.org/en/ that are backed by ffmpeg are (imo) superior "regular" person tools. FFMPEG isn't complicated (its as complicated as any other CLI tool), it's that video encoding/decoding specifically is a hard problem space that you have to explicitly learn to better understand... - Source: Hacker News / 21 days ago

• Flowblade: Open-Source Video Editor

  Great that you got it to work. Just to make the list with potential tools a bit more complete: - Kdenlive is also a fairly capable video editor. https://kdenlive.org/en/ - From what I have heard the Blender video editor for many people is a go to tool as well. In this case it likely would have been overkill, but figured it is worth mentioning. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• What Online video editors do you use?

  You might be interested in Kdenlive. It's not online, but can be installed on any OS and I've had it running on some pretty dated machines. Source: 5 months ago

• Remember when Windows had a native video editor?

  Kdenlive or shotcut for small/basic stuff. If you're outgrow those, then DaVinci Resolve Free. Source: 11 months ago

• Window's 10 Video editor.

  Some free options include Kdenlive and Shotcut. I would have previously recommended Wondershare Filmora, but they recently did some pretty shady things with their licensing and I'd avoid them now despite the software actually being quite good. Source: 11 months ago
