That said, if you're a total video editing beginner, you may find these videos a little glib, as they don't go into a lot of depth or show a lot of detail. And FXHome promises that when new features are added in the future, new videos will be added to the panel to explain them. But if you're new to HitFilm's way of doing things, they give you a brief, punchy guide to all the basics. When you don't need these, you can just toggle them out of existence, using the 'Learn' slider at the top of the screen. Tutorials are front and centre of the new interface (Image credit: Tom May) For example, you can cut, slice, trim, split, crop and flip your clips drag-and-drop professional, ready-to-use transitions on to your timeline, and automatically line up your video with your audio. Like its predecessor, HitFilm gives you everything you need for basic video editing. And overall, HitFilm's interface does a good job of displaying a complex array of data and information in a small space. Moving from an off-white design to a new, dark mode may not be everyone's cup of tea, but it does fit in with the general trend for pro video editing software.

The timeline shows a representation of your edit. The trimmer is where you preview your clips before you add them to your edit. The media panel makes it easy to import your videos and audio tracks. The main elements of the interface are as follows. To HitFilm's credit, this itself was pretty straightforward. So I decided to stick with the default settings, and just float and rescale the interface's different elements in a way that worked best for me. That was a bit annoying, as I had to reboot my laptop each time I tried this.Įventually, I got everything looking a lot neater… but the text was too tiny for my ageing eyes to read. After a bit of Googling, I found most forum posts advised me to reset my laptop's display scaling. I ignored the message, opened the interface, and true enough, the interface did look a bit bunched up on the screen. I got this message after downloading the free version and clicking on the.
