Familiar tools, laid out the way you expect them.
Double-click a clip to cut it right where you want. Drag the ends to trim and drag clips to move them on the timeline.
Add a filter, drag it over just the part you want, then add another on top. Lower its strength to make it softer.
One-click cinematic looks like Teal & Orange and Noir, plus a soft glow for that dreamy feel.
Change speed from slow to fast, set exact values like 1.10×, and adjust pitch separately.
Switch between 16:9, 9:16, 1:1 and 4:5. Crop to fill with one click, or drag the corners to fit it yourself.
See the waveform on your clips and drag the line up or down to set the volume.
