Here's a rundown of the best video editing apps for iPhone and Android. I'm
Ben Simon for Media Brighton TV, stay tuned...
if you're not making videos using your phone, you are missing a big fat whopping trick. Using the apps in this
rundown, you'll be able to knock out some great content super quick.
So, first up, are the multi-channel video editing apps. At number one is iMovie on iOS, which is
£3.99, or free on a new iPhone.
This app is amazing, it's super simple to use, and really powerful at the same time.
You can choose to make a movie or a trailer, the trailer feature allows you
to make hollywood-style trailers, by replacing clips in a storyboard style
interface. The movie feature allows you to choose from a bunch of themes, you
have full control over editing your clips, adding slow-motion, color grading
and titles. The best features are the ability to add a second layer of video,
so you can add your b-roll clips over an interview, or picture-in-picture. You can
add multi layers of audio, and you can dettach the audio from any video clip,
helping you do more complex editing, if you need to. You can export in a number
of resolutions up to 4k, on the newer phones, and you can share to a number of
social media sites, from the app. But, seriously, this app is a must for any
iphone videographers, and it's my go-to app for making videos on the go.
If iMovie doesn't float your boat, then you may want to look at Pinnacle Studio Pro,
which is another iOS video editing app, capable of professional results. It's quite
pricey, coming in at a whopping £9.99, but for that, you do
get a pro-level, multi-channel, video and audio editing app, on your iPhone or iPad.
Pinnacle is a bit harder to get to grips with than iMovie though...
Next up, is Kinemaster, which is another feature packed video editing app but,
this time, on Android, offering multi-channel editing.
It's free to download, but costs around $40 a year subscription to use
without that annoying watermark, which is a bit of a stinger, which I
must admit. If you can stump up that kind of cash, you do get some nice
features, like split-screen, picture-in-picture, and so on, and the
layout is clear, and easy to use.
I don't like it anywhere near as much as I like iMovie though, the graphics and
themes are really cheesy and unusable, in my opinion, but it's the best option at
the moment for multi-channel editing on Android. Ok, so there is a free option for
multi-channel editing on Android; NCH's Videopad video editor, but the drawback is
it's very clunky looking, with an old-school interface, I found it to be
glitchy as well, if you're an Android user on a budget, and you have time
to sit down and figure it out, then this could be what you're looking for.
So, Cutecut, is another iOS editor offering multi-layers of video editing.
It's free to download, but costs £4.49 to get rid of that annoying
watermark. So, it's pretty easy to use, to get to grips with, you can add videos
over other videos, resize, and rotate to get some nice overlay effects, which is
pretty unique. A really cool feature that trumps iMovie even, is the ability to
control saturation, brightness, contrast, exposure, and color temperature, nice
touch!
I've also read reviews that this can be quite glitchy on exporting, so be warned.
There are a plethora of effects and transitions to play around with too, and
you can share your creations with the world, from the app with a few clicks.
So, first up, for the single-layer video editors, is Filmoreago, which is a free
app for iOS, you choose your clips and they are added to your video. You can
trim each clip and a number of effects and tweaks, including filters, overlays
animated elements, titles, speed effects and so on. If you want to get creative
then check out this app; some of the text animations are very cheesy, but there are
some nice ones too.
I found them all to have a certain style, so, it's going to be a bit like marmite,
you're either gonna love it, or you're gonna hate it.
Ok, so moving on, next up, is Powerdirector on Android. It's a free app, but you have
to pay £3.94, which is a bit of a strange number,
to get rid of the watermark. It has a nice look to the interface, and it's very
similar-looking to iMovie, the big difference is that you can't add that
great second level of video, making it more of a hobby use, than a serious editor,
my opinion. You can trim your clips, add filters, titles, slow motion effects, and
music. You can share your videos with Facebook from the app.
Next, we have Movie Edit Touch, on Android and Windows Phone. Does anyone actually have a Windows
phone? Oh yeah, my mother-in-law does. It's another free app, capable of nice results.
It's got a nice, clean interface, it's simple and easy-to-use, if you just want
to rearrange your clips, trim them, add filters and effects, then check this one
out. The next best video editing app for iPhone and Android is 'Quik' by GoPro.
This cool little app takes the heavy lifting out of editing by doing most of
the hard work itself. You can choose video clips and photos to import and
then a theme, which dictates how the video is cut together, the filters, the
effects, music, and sometimes overlay graphics. The app edits your clip into a
video automatically, like magic.
You have control over each clip in the sequence, where you can trim, add text
decide whether the clips play without edits, and so on.
This is really nice app for creating simple video montages with some
stylish-looking effects and transitions. I would use this to make little creative
sections for a bigger video, and import the resulting clip into iMovie. You
can share your video with all the usual social media platforms once you're done
editing it too. Last, but no means least, is Adobe Premiere clip, available free on
iOS and Android. With Clip, you can opt for automatic editing or manual. In the
auto section, you choose your clips and the app ranges them, and cuts them
together with music.
You don't get to choose from a bunch of themes, like the GoPro app though. You can
control the pace of the Edit, reorder the clips, and change the music. If you want
more control, you can convert the sequence to the manual timeline, where
you get to trim the clip, add exposure, highlights and shadows, control audio
levels on each clip, you can save to the camera roll,
and share to the usual places from the app.
So, there's my take on the best video editing apps for iPhone and Android. If you want to know more about marketing
