LECTURE 2

START A NEW PROJECT

Launch Filmora and simply click on the New Project icon to create a project using the
default settings.

The Edit window will appear on the screen, where we can start making our video.

IMPORT MEDIA FILES TO A PROJECT

Click on the Import Media Files Here icon and navigate to the folder where the video and
audio clips you want to use are located.
Preview the Videos
Double-click on a video clip in the Media tab and it will start playing
automatically. Below the preview window, you’ll see the progress bar that
shows you how much of the video has already been played.

In case you would like to add only a portion of a video to the timeline you can
use Mark In and Mark Out icons that look like curly brackets to set in and out
points. Click on the exact spot on the progress bar where you want the video
clip to start and then proceed to set the In point by clicking on the Mark In
icon.
You should then jump to the position where you want the video to end and set
the Out point. Hit the play button to make sure that you selected the portion of
the video you wanted and in case you like the results add the file to the
timeline. Repeat this process for all video clips that contain segments you
don’t want to include on the timeline.
DRAG-N-DROP FILES ONTO THE TIMELINE
You can add as many video clips to a track as you want, or you can place them
on a few different tracks. The only important thing is to position the video clips
right next to each other to avoid any empty space between them.
When you place and arrange all the video footage on the timeline, you can
also create a soundtrack. We can add an audio file to the timeline the same
way we would add a video file. The only difference is that audio files must be
added to the audio track that is located directly below the video track. The
note symbol next to a track tells you which tracks are audio tracks.
If the audio file you added is longer than the video footage, you can adjust its
duration by dragging one of the file’s ends to the right.
EXPORT THE PROJECT
The final step of the video editing process is to export the video you created.
Click on the Export button when ready and wait for the Export window to
appear on the screen. Use the MP4 file format because it works with both
macOS and Windows, so you don’t have to worry about the video’s
compatibility with different media players.

Click on the Settings button to adjust the video’s encoder, resolution, frame
rate, bit rate or change its output audio settings if necessary.
The rendering process will start as soon as you click on the Export button. The
video file you created is going to be in the folder you specified as the
destination folder after the rendering is completed.
