Top 5 Video Editing Software in 2023 (Beginner to Advance)
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
There are plenty of editing applications out there and it’s hard to choose one. I’ve been editing with a variety of different apps for the last 15 years.
So I wanted to make this video to share the top editing apps available right now.
There is also website like Envato Elements that have a ton of video templates for Davinci and Premiere Pro, that can really level up your editing.
1.envato.market/c/2500859/115...
If you haven’t used Envato Elements, it’s basically an all-in-one creative platform and really useful for video creation.
You can get video templates for editing apps, stock videos, music, and pretty much everything else you need to level up your video.
Envato also has a really useful KZread channel, called Tut+, where you can take entire free courses on some of the apps I mentioned like Adobe Premiere Pro and others.
/ tutsplus
All these editing applications are going to work for Windows PC or Mac computers. Some will be free and others will have a paid subscription with a free trial. I’ll link all the resources I mention in the video in the description.
Mobile editing apps are still not as powerful as desktop apps. But I do have another video breaking down the top 5 mobile editing apps.
Adobe Premiere Pro
The most popular professional editing app is Adobe Premiere Pro.
This is the application my team and I have used most of the time in the last decade.
It works seamlessly with other Adobe apps like Photoshop and Aftereffects.
And you can do everything from basic editing to advance graphic animation.
You can get Adobe Premiere Pro with a free trial and then subscribe monthly.

Davinci Resolve
Another powerful editing app is called Davinci Resolve. This app has a free version that you can use. It started as a color correction tool and later became a full-blown video editing platform.
You can get Davinci Resolve here:

Filmora
Filmora is a free video editing program for Mac or Windows PC.
You can download a free trial and test it out. But you will have to purchase it, to unlock all the features. Filmora also has a version for iPad and mobile, so it’s a great option for taking your editing on the go.
You can download Filmora from this link: (affiliate link)

Adobe Premiere Rush
Adobe has another editing app for computers and mobile devices called Premiere Rush. It’s a light version of Premiere Pro and a perfect app if you plan on taking your edits between mobile and desktop.
Adobe rush makes it really simple to edit your video, add titles, work with audio, color correct and easily share online.
You can get Adobe Premiere Rush from the link in the description. (Affiliate link)

Shotcut
shotcut.org/
Shotcut is a free, open-source, cross-platform video editor.
It's available for Mac, Windows, and Linux.
This one is easy to use for beginners, but you may want to graduate with more advanced applications once you finish several projects. A lot of the fundamentals of editing will still apply.
There are other apps I like such as Final Cut Pro and iMovie, but those are only available on Mac computers.
Check out the description below this video for more in-depth tutorials on each platform and choose the editing app that fits best with your workflow.

A very cool video on editing, and I love your channel. Always looking for tips of the best Editors! 😁🤔
Thank you so much! Great video, really informative and concise.
Thank you for the information. I am just now starting my editing journey and found this information to be useful. Thumbs up!
i love how it seems like editors keep the knowledge of editing open source. I think alot of people love the artform and wanna share it, probably the most tutorials on any subject on the internet.
Great rundown of the top video editing software! I appreciate the detailed comparison between Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve and your recommendation of Filmora and Adobe Premiere Rush really helps. Also, the tip about Envatoo Elements for templates is a game-changer. Thanks for the insights!"

Big brother thank you so much... Can I work with da Vinci after I install it, can I work and still to be offline?
I need software that will allow me to remove original audio and add my own. What do you recommend? I'm a newb. Currently using NCH Software and that editor doesn't allow me to change out the audio. Thanks! Love your video!

I appreciate your experience. Perhaps you can help make a recommendation. I am relatively new but have tried Shotcut, Resolve and now IMovie but each seems to have issues. My video has 70+ clips plus music plus an audio where I speak. I have encountered a lot of software issues depending on the maker but I need to easily and seemlessly blend these components. What would you recommend for an editor?

Thanks so much. Do you have video on Final Cut Pro? And Macbook photo editing. I think Final Cut Pro is only software thats only for Macbook. Others are Windows and Macbook. Is Final Cut Pro hard. I prefer editing on my Iphone. So maybe I will pay for Rush. Can you like me your video for Android and Iphone video and photo editing and Stories and Reels and TikTok editing apps in app store they dont have to be free.
I was using dupdub to edit but they limit the downloads to 500mb which means a 10 min video would have to be 480i resolution. Will Adobe premiere pro limit me as well or can I download 1080p and then upgrade the video to 4k after editing to export?

I believe there's an option in Davinci for upping the resolution, although I wouldn't recommend it as it softens the image like crazy.
Can you give advice. I was looking for another editor because I just started editing but this is SOOO slow on my pc. (I have a decent pc that streams games perfectly fine)

From my experience 1. use Shotcut (it is really light, used to work on a 8 year old laptop quite fine) 2. use proxies (to downscale your video from 1080p to 480p or even lower) this helps a ton 3. add effects at the end (like special filter oder more advanced animation) this can really destroy the performance

Ok thank you for the video. I wanted to see if there are editing programs on the phones but the screen is small, it would be tiring. I was using Canva in the past, maybe I will catch up with it. The problem is that my job isnt really to edit videos but when i do pay for the video editing I do not really like the result. Anyone else experiencing the same problem? Lol

Picked filmora a long time ago because of their lifetime license. Looking to switch after that crap they pulled where they told everyone with lifetime licenses that they had to buy a new license. It's left a bad taste with me ever since. Gonna try Resolve this time around💀
Cool
What about Final Cut Pro
you have to give right informations because filmora isnt for free, with the free version you wont be able make videos without advertising
Ima stick do CapCut 😉😌
nice
I am starting to make videos and I’ve experimented with lots of different editing softwares, the problem is that if I have a bunch of GoPro clips to put into at once the softwares i use don’t allow me to select them all at once and put them in. It would take me hours to slowly click and import each of the clips into the software for me to start editing. It would be great help if you responded to this comment. Thanks
Where's the link

Can anyone advise me. Im looking to get a new editing programme but unsure which one. this video has really helped narrow it down but wondered if anyone can recommend one or give their opinion on it. Looking at Davinci Resolve, Filmora or Premiere Rush. Id love something not too advanced but also something i can create great videos with (feel free to check out the videos im posting at the moment for reference) i am currently unemployed so i dont want to be paying loads for an editing programme so either ones that is free or has the option to upgrade when i am able to, but i still want to make good videos with a free version. it could be benefical to have a phone version so im i am traveling or have to get a video edited quickly i can do it on my phone but its not essentail as i usually edit a few weeks in advance. If anyone can help me with their personal expereince that would be great. thank you

From what this guy says start with Davinci Resolve which is more user friendly then maybe move up to Adobe or something else. I am starting a channel so i am in the same boat looking for editing right now!
It's kind of a skanky move by these companies to charge you monthly to use a video edit software.
God bless everyone and have a good day! ,

NO WARNING and my HitFilm full version suddenly stopped with a message (You're currently offline). I tried to go online to sign in and it would just be like I hadn't signed in at all so I reset the password and they sent me an email to do it and that did not work. I can't sign into my account so I am sending a message via KZread to see if I can get support. If I need an upgrade then why not send me an email and why cut me out of my account? This is very odd behavior for a company to do and I may have to make a video on it so that others can see what happened.

Being free, da Vinci Resolve is definitely the software that's worth getting for anyone that's starting out with video editing. I'm an avid Premier Pro fan, but my go-to when recommending editing software for beginnings has been da Vinci Resolve for years. A 15-minute beginners tutorial is all that's needed to get people into basic editing, and once they get comfortable, da Vinci already has built-in tools to allow them to expand to more advanced options. Plus, there's so much similarity between the two that, if they decide later to upgrade to Premier Pro, there's not much of a learning curve - it mostly just takes getting used to the different interface.
