MiniTool MovieMaker

While the market is full of professional video editing tools for content creators and creatives, simple yet powerful tools that anyone can use and master are much needed now that taking videos and pictures with our cameras and smartphones is at anyone's fingertips.

That is what MiniTool MovieMaker offers you—easy-to-use powerful editing and enhancing video capabilities to help you create high-quality videos.

Its dark-colored interface gives it a pro-looking appearance right away, but as soon as you start moving around the various buttons and menu options, you realize that this tool has been designed with the beginner and the amateur user in mind. You find out in a snap that the whole process can be summarized in three or four steps—feed the program with as many media files you want (videos, photos, audio files), arrange them easily in the order you prefer using the timeline provided, add a filter or effect (or not), and save it in the format of your choice.

It is that simple, and yet, if you happen to have a creative in you, you'll be delighted with the variety of features and video effects that MiniTool MovieMaker offers you to "complicate" things in a good way. You can add text to your videos, merge already existing video files into a larger one with or without transition effects, trim videos to leave out unwanted fragments, add a new soundtrack, create videos out of your collection of photographs, and even add templates for stunning results in just one click.

All of this can be done for free and without watermarks, though with some limitations. Thus, only the first three videos you produce using the free version of MiniTool MovieMaker will have no time limitation—after that, videos longer than two minutes will be cut by the program at the time of output. If you want to get rid of all those restraints, all you have to do is pay a tiny monthly fee, among other plans. MiniTool MovieMaker is an excellent solution to amateur video editing, producing pro-looking results without the fuss of purchasing and learning how to use sophisticated professional tools.
