![OpenShot Video Editor - Tutorial for Beginners in 9 MINUTES! [ UPDATED ]](/img/n.gif)
Oh my god I didnt know you were the ACTUALL creator. Just wanted to say this editor is very easy to use and helped me alot.😄
me too
th
When splitting, you can't click the progress bar. You need to click the time marker and then move it, also, this pauses. So finding the spots to split feels like doing a surgery. Then I go to "export video".
I click save and it's asking me required advanced information about the start/end frames. Like wtf, can i just save the fucking video I'm asking to save.
So I put Start at 1 and End at 100.
It's been not-responding for 10 minutes.
I've installed gentoo, this program is garbage. Go get Premiere.
It's a great software system.
Wow! The creator himself! No wonder it's super helpful, straight to the point, no fluff. Very useful video. And thank you for creating Openshot and keeping it free.
I saw that OpenShot was created 10 years ago .... and I was a fool for 10 years. Thanks a million, Jonathan. Your Creation is a Gold Standard in Video editing.
Johnathan, you are amazing at explaining things! You make the confusion in my head and my overwhelmed thoughts all clear out. And all I need to do is listen well to what you say, watch your mouse, than go and create my own magic!
Thank you, Jonathan for making Openshot. Also for making these easy to follow videos - you are a good teacher too. This 8 minute video was worth it since I am a beginning user and was getting frustrated using the razor tool (since that was the only obvious method). At one point I thought i need to check for a tutorial. So many better ways which will save me a lot of time
i'm so happy you created this for free! I had been looking for a year until i eventually gave up, but a friend suggested this editor to me. i'm happy i found this
Ive actually made a ton of progress on the quality of my videos just by playing around with this program without even watching any tutorials. That's how simple this is. Bravo.
Nicely paced tutorial, I like that you've kept to the point and given lots of different ways to do the same thing. I've just come across OpenShot and that is a really nice application, thanks!
I installed this Software yesterday and was so totally overwhelmed by all its options and menus and terminology that i was quite close to despair - and then i took the time to check your videos , tried this afternoon what i remembered , knew that i was still being stupid , checked once more , and now , slowly , this old dynosaur is warming up and gaining speed
Thank you , Jonathan 🙏
Thank you Jonathan for creating such a wonderful & amazing video editor. The more I am learning about the OpenShot features , the more I am loving it. Thank you once again for your valuable tutorial lesson how to trim videos in different ways.
You are so welcome!
I just discovered OpenShot, thank you thank you thank you! It is SOOOO easy and intuitive. I am 64 and not very comfortable with confusing programs with way too many pro features and buttons like the starship Enterprise. Jon you are my hero! PS-Just donated.
Mr. Thomas, thank you for your hard work. Please do keep the videos coming. I am learning a lot from them.
Pretty amazing for a piece of free software. Never realized how easy it was to do these kind of videos
Thanks for this! I'm brand new to OpenShot and the capabilities are pretty daunting. The tutorials are soooo helpful.
I almost gave up on this software because I was using it wrong.
Trim, cut and slice is pretty much all I want to do, so this video helped a lot :)
Thank you Jonathan.
THANK YOU FOR CREATING THIS SOFTWARE i legit praise people who do open source content wish i could donate
Man, do I wish I had this available 4-5+ years ago when I first started using this! I can't believe how much I'm learning, and how much time I've wasted not knowing better how to use this incredible program.
On each tutorial my envy to your genius and creativity increased. Especially green dots linking animations between clips or photos is very useful. Thank you!
Jonathan I came to your software because i was struggling with another. Yours is a work of genius. Once I've used it more I'll contribute to help you keep it going. Thanks!
Thank you so much! What a great editing software product!
For a newbie to all the video editing, this has simplified so many things that seemed complex!
I feel empowered for real!
So grateful.
Best wishes to all especially those starting out working online and setting up new businesses. Believe in yourselves, and keep at it as there is so much help for us.
I love this software, thanks for creating it!
This is the best tutorial I found for a beginner. I will definitely try and then come back with more feedback. Great Job Jonathan.
Fantastically capable yet simple to use tool and top notch expert guidance at just the right level of detail --amazingly at no cost! You've done a great job on the tool itself and are serving many in a most helpful and generous way. Thank You, TYVM, Gratzi!!
Very good. I learn a lot with this video. I always used the razor tool. I was a little disapointed with the lack of precision.
I'm 45 and I've NEVER ever worked with - or used in any possible way - graphics and editing. Not talented in drawing, never had to edit a video, not a single frame.
But I've found some old videocassettes with videos I wanted to keep, brought them to a guy near here and I've obtained lots of vob files. After converting them with a tool I needed to adjust split and edit them.
In literally F I V E minutes I've managed to find all the methods Jonathan explains in the video, BEFORE watching it. I watched this to learn how to save single cuts into MP4 files and other saving methods, still very new at this.
Anyway thank you. VERY powerful tool, very reliable and it really makes the job easy, actually it's TOO easy for a program of that kind, I was very surprised considered I've downloaded not one but some apps for this task and most of them were uninstalled without being able to proceed to step 2: editing after opening a file
Great tutorial and very helpful. I am just starting out on openshot and I am already amazed by its capabilities. Thank you Jonathan for this tutorial.
Thank you for open sourcing this video editor. God Bless you more.
This is a great tool. It really makes video cut and splice etc accessible in 5 minutes flat. Sometimes video tools aim so high the entry point is unreachable. Not here. You can do it.
Thank you Jonathan, you are the best teacher and an amazing creator. I am learning everyday as a beginner. I wish I can correct a lot of things in my past videos which got lots of views already.
Thanks Jonathan a very good demo I have learn a lot of it.
A remark, with the arrow key you can move the cursor by 1/100 of a second for a accurate position in the clip.
simply wanted to thank you for having this wonderful program available for free, and for your wonderful tutorial! kudos to you!
Wow, this editor is what I've been looking for, for a Very long time! I'm an amateur video editor, professional musician. This does everything I need it to do for quick cuts and transitional ideas then hand it off to our pros. Thank you for this software.
Thanks soooooooooooooooo much for creating this! I have cerebral palsy which makes it hard for me to use traditional editing software! This is soooooooooooooooo easy for me to use and a godsend!!! You da real MVP! !!
Thank you for being so kind and making this open-source! Good man good man
short simple and sweet. no need too fancy thing. you really did it well Jonathan
Thank you so much for creating this wonderful software. Some of our students have very little in life, your software makes it possible for everybody to have a chance to learn and create. Thank you.
Thank you Jonathan for creating this amazing software!!
I just started using this software tonight and have never done any video editing before in my life (though I've done some audio editing and that was invaluable in picking up on this software) and absolutely LOVE the razor tool. I get around the imprecision by placing the cursor precisely where I want and adding a marker, then using the razor to hit that spot :) It works quite nicely (for what I'm doing anyway, which is just editing a monologue type of thing) that way :)
I would absolutely love it if you added a hotkey command to switch between the razor and the compass-looking-default-thing, and a quick way to force all tracks to align with the red line without cutting off any part of them. Like "align all tracks to start here" type of thing.
More hotkeys, please!!!! :-D I live and breathe by them!
And thank you thank you thank you thank you SO MUCH for this software. You are amazing!!!!
I use Razor Tool more often, and use play and pause in the preview to choose the position where I want to trim it.
This is the best! I've tried several other editors which were ok for rough work, but this gives fine control; just what I needed. thanks a lot!
the Split function is just brilliant, thanks a lot!
You don't know that how much you made my life easier by uploading this playlist full of helpful tutorial..... Thank you so much 🥰.
You are awesome. I want you to know that OpenShot saved my University during the pandemic because all manuals and tutorials for students are being built with it. Don't know how to thank you. THANK YOU
Whether you see this or not I want to express my appreciation for this tutorial! Most of it is intuitive but alot of this had me scratching my head! You're the shit, man! :)
Oh sweet Baby Jesus, this piece of software right here is a life saver. I don't know why I didn't find it sooner when I needed some simple video fixes. Thank you for developing it.
I might as well donate on your page, so you can enjoy some cold, refreshing, wonderful craft beer on me.
Same here! I went through so many different programs before finding this
No need to blasphemy
@@PunkDogCreations That is no blasphemy it is an expression of the love of Jesus
@@georgestyer2153 1. That software has nothing to do with Jesus and 2. he clearly uses Jesus's name as a swear phrase.
@@PunkDogCreations maybe it is how you interpret the phrase.
Absolutely fantastic video! Everything I needed to know, and much I wanted to know but didn't even know was possible! THANK YOU for your time and efforts!
Thanks for the comment, and happy this video helped you out! Yay!

I know it's free and I don't have a lot of money, but I just want to give you money for your genius. It took me a whole week to create a very imperfect video with VSDC. Soooooooo unnecessarily complicated even though it's supposed to be one of the easier ones.
