Movavi
Movavi is an editor for amateur video editors because it is very simple and intuitive, but it offers more advanced features in terms of editing and improving video. It provides several features for color adjustments, insertion of more complex effects and more.
Filmora
Do you remember Windows Movie Maker? The media software that was already installed on Windows machines and it worked in a simple and light way! Ideal for less elaborate editions!
As the program was discontinued by Microsoft, Filmora appears as a good alternative for this type of work. It offers more beginner software, FilmoraPro, and a screen-cast tool!
These products are available for Windows and Mac.
Openshot
Openshot is an excellent option especially for those who use Linux as an operating system. It is very intuitive and easy to use and allows the user to make simple edits, such as cropping, adding effects and inserting photos and music.
Openshot is completely free and, if you want to try it, there is also a version for Windows and one for Mac!
Videopad
Videopad is a very simple editor, suitable for those who do not want or do not need to make very deep edits. It is very light and intuitive and can be ideal if your goal is just to make cuts, joins and insert small effects.
The editor is available for both Mac and PC and is free for a short trial period only.
I loved this training because you certainly helped me to choose something according to my needs and expertise.
You have truly invested quite a lot of research and time to put this list together. I have worked with several programs you review and your comments are spot-on.
Amazing work!
