Hello creators! 
After you’ve filmed all of your videos, the editing process begins. Today we’re going to learn how to cut and edit different videos together in KineMaster. To start a new project, we tap the new project button, choose the video ratio, and then we can start importing videos and photos to the timeline. Tap the media button, and then choose the video or the photo that you want to edit. First, choose the video by selecting the video icon on the left.
Select the video that you want to edit, and then tap on the checkmark button. The same thing applies for photos. We select the photo, and then choose which photos we want to insert to the timeline. When we import the second video or photo its position will be in front of or behind the previous one. You can use this button to select the position. To cancel, or to repeat the process, use the undo and redo buttons, here. To change the position of a video or photo, tap and hold it on the timeline until it moves slightly, and then move it to the desired position like this. Before we continue on to importing new layers, I’ll show you how to trim your videos. For the beginning and the ending, you can tap the video or photo, and then tap and hold on the edge like this and move it. In KineMaster, there are several ways to trim a video.
The feature provided here for trimming is incredible because it really makes trimming super easy. Let me show you how. Tap on the object that you want to trim, and then tap on the scissors button, and then you’ll see 4 options like this. The first option is Trim to left of playhead. This cuts the left part of your video or photo. When you tap this, everything left of the red playhead line is removed from the selected video or photo. Trim to the right of playhead has the same function, however it’s used to erase the right part of the red line.
Next is Split at playhead. Select the position, tap Split at playhead, and then the video will be cut into two parts. The fourth option is Split and Insert Freeze Frame. This is used to split the video into two clips and to insert freeze frame between them. So, for example, if you have a moment in the video that you want to freeze, you can use this option. Look at this example: I set the length of this frame the way I want by tapping and holding it on the edge like this and then we move it. Press the play button to see the result. One of the advantages of KineMaster is its ability to add layers.
You can use it to create a picture in picture effect. Or when you want to show different video clips. By using a new layer, you can also add pictures but keep the sound from the video on the main layer. To add new layers, use this layer button. When you tap it, it expands to show the different kinds of layers you can add. For example, I’ll add a video. Tap on the media button, then select the video you want to add. The video appears under the primary timeline, but the video appears on top of the video in the preview window. You can rotate and set the video clip’s size by tapping and holding it this way, and then slide it like this. The same thing applies when you want to rotate it. Tap and hold on the left corner like this, and make it how you want. You can also use 2 fingers to rotate the layers, set the position and the size of the object like this. Tap on the checkmark when you’re done. To delete a layer use this button. Tap on the object first and then tap the delete button.
Trimming video clips and arranging layers is an important part of editing a video. The features provided in KineMaster are efficient and helpful to speed up the editing process. Thank you for watching and happy editing!
