VSDC Free Video Editor Software edits video files and supports popular video and audio formats and codecs, including DVDs, HD, and GoPro videos. Preconfigured profiles simplify making videos for multimedia and mobile devices.
The VSDC Free Video Editor supports video file editing and complex video creation using various visual and audio effects. The software offers rich functionality and features a simple, intuitive interface, enabling video creation with minimal effort.
VSDC Free Video Editor offers versatile features for both home and business use, including text and audio overlay, charts and diagrams, and a slideshow maker.
This program is a non-linear editing system, meaning video files and images do not need to follow a specific sequence โ they can be arranged in any order. Additionally, objects can change their properties, shape, and position over time.
Hardware acceleration, multi-color Chroma Key, adjustable parameter settings, and enhanced resolution make VSDC a real-time and effort-saving tool, allowing for creating large-sized HD videos in a few minutes instead of hours.
VSDC Free Video Editor Features:
Visual and audio effects
You can apply various visual and audio effects to your videos to achieve the necessary result. To simplify navigation, the extensive collection of visual effects is divided into five categories: color correction, object transformation, object filters, transition effects, and special FX.
Blending modes and Instagram-like filters
Another way to customize your video’s appearance is through color blending. Adjustable parameters give your video a unique, professional look. Beginners or those looking to save time can apply Instagram-like filters with a single click.
Masking
VSDC Free Video Editor enables the creation of various-shaped masks to hide, blur, or highlight specific elements in a video. These masks allow special effects to be applied inside or outside the masked area. Common uses include blurring faces to protect identities or removing unwanted marks.
