This is a most welcome addition - it makes HitFIlm one of the best video editor apps for beginners, and the bundled tutorials are sure to improve a new editor’s abilities quickly. Here, you’re graced with three videos explaining the basics - the lowdown of the interface, how to manage your media, and how to export your finished product.īut there’s a lot more: click on ‘All Categories’ to see all 39 available videos designed to teach you about most aspects of filmmaking, including green screen work, changing the pitch of audio, and tweaking a clip’s color balance, among others. You can toggle it on and off through a simple button, to the right of the top menus. So many windows or panels, so many options, where to start?įor that reason, we really appreciated the new Sidebar, simply called ‘Learn’. If you’re new to software for editing videos, launching such an app can feel daunting. Self learningįancy some tutoring? You can learn many things through numerous tutorials without having to leave the interface (Image credit: FXHome) Maybe being subtle didn’t work for them with the previous look, but this is garish and obtrusive, and really a major step down in our opinion. The justification for that might be the giant ‘Upgrade’ button, top right, constantly reminding you that, really, you should be sending FXHome some money every month by taking up one of their juicy subscriptions.
Sadly, if you’re running HitFilm on a Mac, the interface guidelines aren’t being respected, with the Menu Bar being ignored, and the menus respecting the Windows principles instead, unnecessarily eating up precious real estate. Thankfully, there's an option to turn this off and return the menu back where it belongs, but why is this 'feature' not on by default? Gone is the off-white look that graced the version we looked at two years ago, replaced with a sleeker, more modern, dark gray design. The interface has had a pretty major revamp.
