How To Do Some Basic Video Editing
A worm burrowed its way into my brain a couple of days ago, after I watched a video of Jay Leno and Bob Riggle flipping a modded Plymouth Barracuda (for those concerned, no one was hurt). The footage of the flip was played up to the point of being funny to me and, being the guy I am and not knowing what else to write about, I decided it might be fun to play it up a bit more.
I’m not much of a video editor, but I’ll occasionally use a program called Openshot to make basic modifications to a video or export it in a different format. In this case, I grabbed the video off Youtube, dropped it into a new project, and then dragged it down to the first track. This makes the video appear in the preview, where you can play it to the point where you want to edit. You can also drag the red indicator around on the timeline or use the arrow keys on your keyboard for more granular movement through the video.
