This is definitely something that needs practice to perfect.Īlthough you can work with multiple layers of audio and video, it’s not all sunshine and daffodils.

Innovative though this is, it can get tricky, especially when working with multiple layers and multiple handles across multiple clips get automatically selected. If you highlight both the left and right handles of a clip, its position in the timeline and duration remains the same, but as you drag left or right, you move its in and out points in relation to the original clip, ie, you’re changing the part of the clip you’re using. You can then drag them left or right to alter the edit point, or the gap between two clips depending on what you selected. Select any of them by clicking on them - turning the handle yellow. The highlighted portion is either on the internal or external side of that end. Hover over clips and handles appear at either end of them - depending where the cursor is positioned.

There are a few features that made us stand up and take notice (both good and bad), some of which we’d like to chat about here: You have multiple layers, can preview clips, set in and out points, the works. Titles are in the VFX workspace, and are fully customisable (Image credit: Lightworks) Editingīuilding an edit is pretty much as you’d expect from a professional level video editor.
