VSDC Free Video Editor - COMPLETE Tutorial for Beginners!

[@ThreeTwentyTech]

Even though making money is a great thing to have, starting a KZbin channel should be about finding your *passion* and turning it into videos. That way, you'll be much more inclined to be consistent since you genuinely enjoy what you do! 👌🏻

[@AriseCakeCreations]

Absolutely agree. Your subject/niche has to be a passion, definitely makes the process of making KZbin videos more enjoyable & also makes engaging with your community a joy as well.

[@momandjas]

True, thats what made me grow on youtube. i love what i do and i am consistent

[@PrimalVideo]

Thanks for sharing! I do agree that if you love what you’re making videos about you’ll enjoy the process more and stick with it when you have those low motivation days.

[@momandjas]

@@PrimalVideo your videos helped me a lot when i started my channel 2 yrs ago. i learnt so many things. thank you.

[@urtiyayeah1946]

Absolutely agree 💯

[@thepurplesmurf]

This is pretty much a perfect beginners tutorial. No rambling on, all basics covered, easy to understand and to follow, just amazing. Kudos and thank you! 👍

[@PrimalVideo]

So awesome to hear that! You're welcome! 😃

[@sherrylouise9495]

Finally I found someone who explains it simply and to the point! Thank you!

[@PrimalVideo]

You're welcome!

[@oldpossum4860]

I love this ! It really got me going with VSDC - I was having problems with it before. The language is clear, the division into sections or chapters on discrete topics is ideal for finding things a second or third time. I was up and running within a day. Highly recommended - who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks ?(75 and still learning - such fun). Thank you so much.

[@PrimalVideo]

So awesome to hear that, cheers 😊 - Hazel, PV Team

[@NEVproductions2012]

This is such a good free video editor. The amount of capabilities it offers and the fluidity of the software is amazing. I've had paid editors that didn't playback as well. It has similarities to others but, it's definitely set up a bit different so I ended up here. Thanks for this vid!

[@PrimalVideo]

You're welcome - good luck with your edits! 👍

[@fzuzka]

Hi. Does it have a voice recording possibility?

[@nithingowda2378]

Yes it's there in premium,

[@RussellWatsonFMHL]

Just changing over to Davinci Resolve but thought I'd watch this to see what it offered. Looks much easier for someone starting out. And, as usual in your videos, I found things that apply to my work even though I'm not using this particular package. Thanks!!!

[@PrimalVideo]

You're welcome, cheers!

[@sunnystar3321]

Finally someone who explains this to a beginner!! I just downloaded this software a few days ago and I am having a very hard time understanding how to use it. I even went to the "tutorial" on the VSDC website and YT and it was no help for me. I am completely new to editing and this software. Thanks for this!

[@PrimalVideo]

You're welcome, glad we're able to help 👍 - Hazel, PV Team

[@buckbuchanan4902]

I just downloaded it today, had no clue what to do until I watched this, and now I have edited my first video using it. But when I clicked on "export this project" completely different options appeared than the ones he shows.

[@bodybybible]

Been using VSDC on and off for 2 years. This was a wonder refresher and with tips I hadn't thought about. Thanks Justin, for your time and effort!

[@PrimalVideo]

You're welcome - glad you liked it!

[@feelxalthaus702]

After watching this I literally feel like I've learnt more than in my last half year in school. Just an amazing beginners tutorial!👍

[@PrimalVideo]

Awesome - glad you liked it 😊

[@brianschieber4872]

I'm a total newbie. Your presentation is really informative for me, thanks!

[@PrimalVideo]

You’re welcome - so awesome to hear that! 😊

[@ljmproductions1]

Great video man! I used VSDC for 2 years before switching to Resolve, and never knew I could be doing slow motion!!! That would've really changed things for me! I agree, the way they expand each clip into its own timeline sort of when you add effects is a little weird, but still, it's a pretty powerful software for someone just starting out. Thanks for taking the time to make a tutorial!

[@PrimalVideo]

You’re welcome - all the best with your videos! 👍

[@VSDCFreeVideoEditor]

Hi! We add new tools every few months, and we actually upgraded the slow motion feature with reframing modes a bit more than a year ago. So yes, you can easily achieve a perfect slow motion effect even after decreasing your video's frame rate drastically.

[@Zellaaaaaaaaaaa]

@@VSDCFreeVideoEditor Wow. Good stuff

[@nanaagyare7044]

This is absolutely impressive. I’ve been watching a couple of videos on video editing and fortunately for me I received a notification on your new upload. I’m thrilled with tonnes of detailed info I ever needed. Thanks 🙏 for this video … much appreciated Sir Brown.

[@PrimalVideo]

You're welcome - so glad you liked it! 😊

[@amanagrawal1204]

It was an amazing insight on the tool for a beginner like me. However if i had an opportunity to see the final exported video, it would have been even more helpful in terms of clarity.

[@NotMrBacon96]

2 years later and still the best tutorial I found. Just Impressive! Keep up the work!

[@PrimalVideo]

Glad it's still impressing you after two years! Thanks for the support! 😊 - Hazel, PV Team

[@DisabledNomads]

Been using VSDC for a couple of years. Subscription is extremely reasonable and affordable. Finally decided to watch a tutorial to see if I could pick up some tips and your video did not fail me. Thank you!

[@PrimalVideo]

Glad you found this video useful! You're welcome! 👍

[@miniveats9157]

Thank you for the video! It is extremely helpful. I have been using VSDC for a view months. I selected it from another one of your videos on editing software choices. I find out new things every time I watch your videos! Great Job!!

[@tegothecat1519]

Downloaded this editor a week ago and if it wasn`t for your video I think I would have given up on it, I am 65 and a bit overwhelmed by all the new technology there is out there. But like I said your video has given me a basic understanding of this editor and I think it will serve me well with a few slideshows I want to do as well as some videos. So, thanks again and keep up the good work

[@PrimalVideo]

You’re welcome - good luck with your edits! 👍

[@raymondbonner9773]

Thank you for this. I've been using VSDC for quite a while to help with content for work. It can feel like a clunky application at times, but as you said, it does provide a lot of control. I did pick up a couple of useful tips from this video, so it's much appreciated 👍

[@PrimalVideo]

You're welcome - good luck with your edits! 👍

[@Veedthetg]

Using your detailed steps I was able to grab a clip from a video I had. That is probably the most basic use of an editor but I've never come across a instruction that spelled it out so well. So I upgraded to the pro version. I also printed out the keyboard shortcuts to have handy. Thanks so much

[@PrimalVideo]

Amazing, glad the video helped! Justin.

[@Mike-ny6sf]

Thank goodness we can adjust the playback speed! I can't hear as fast as you can talk. But thank you for the excellent tutorial ...maybe cut back on the caffeine!! haha :)

I'm staggered that a video editing software like this is free, it feels too good to be true. It reminds me a lot of Sony Vegas pro 11. I feel like I'm waiting for the catch. Will I only get a 30 day trial or something? I NEED this thing, I've been uninspired for a year now and felt a drop in the quality of my life not being able to be creative with videos. I don't want the bubble to burst.

[@PrimalVideo]

Hey! I totally get where you're coming from. But VSDC Free Video Editor is indeed free without a 30-day trial catch. There is a Pro version with extra features, but the free version is fully functional and great for video editing. Hazel, PV Team
