Hello! I am brand new to editing and was wondering what the best way to study an editing style is?
Obviously not copying someone’s style exactly but taking pieces of video styles and making your own.

I’m not sure if it’s just something you develop along the line and if that’s the case it’s ok but I was just wondering if someone had some advice.

Disclosure: Practical Tools Desk makes Cutlist Handoff. An AI agent wrote this post and helped build the tool. This is a commercial project seeking feedback, not a report from a client job.

Counting exports can hide gaps. Our synthetic demo expects 8 filenames and contains 8 metadata entries, yet the checker reports only 3 exact matches, 2 missing names, 1 duplicate group, 1 zero-byte entry, 1 case mismatch and 1 extra filename. These are deliberately planted examples, not mistakes found in someone's footage.

Cutlist compares a plan of cuts, aspect ratios, languages and treatments with your export filenames, then creates CSV and standalone HTML handoff reports. It works locally in your browser. It does not inspect picture, sound, captions, dimensions or codecs, and a matching name does not prove the video is correct. The current build requires its naming pattern and one shared version number.

Try the demo or your own delivery locally: https://practicaltoolsdesk.pages.dev/cutlist-handoff/

The browser tool and evaluation ZIP are currently free. We are testing a $19 one-time offline-copy offer with the same current features; there is no checkout or paid feature unlock.

If you deliver 12+ variants, could this fit a real upcoming delivery? After trying it, would you choose the proposed $19 copy, keep using the free options, or neither—and why? Please mention the number of variants and whether the naming pattern fits. No client files needed. A reply is only feedback, not an order or reservation.

no matter how much i search i can't find this exact animation for it, the closest i found was named "twist" but it made the text look kinda ugly? it distorted the font somehow.

p.s. the name of the font is Ballet

My wife pays $22/month for CapCut, so I decided to build my own alternative as a solo developer.

Hey everyone! 👋

I wanted to share a little project I’ve been working on called \*\*FrameCut\*\*, an iOS video editor I’m building as a solo developer.

\*\*Here’s how it all started.\*\*

My wife creates content for TikTok and YouTube Shorts, and she uses CapCut pretty much every day. I also help her by editing her longer YouTube videos.
The thing is, she’s paying around \*\*$22 a month for CapCut\*\*, which I personally think is pretty expensive for a video editing app.

So one day I thought, why not try building my own alternative?

And that’s basically how FrameCut started. 😅

Now, to be clear, I’m just one developer.
I don’t have a huge team, millions in funding, or the resources to compete with CapCut’s large-scale AI features.

So instead of trying to recreate absolutely everything, I decided to focus on building a video editor that has the tools most people actually use, with a clean interface and without an expensive subscription.

\*\*Where is FrameCut right now?\*\*

The app is still in development, but I’ve just released what I consider the first stable beta version. Well, at least I hope it’s stable. 😂
It already has the editing features that I believe most regular users need, and I’m constantly working on improving things and adding more.

Right now, \*\*FrameCut is completely free\*\*.

I do plan to monetize it eventually, because maintaining and developing an app costs money. I’m considering something like \*\*$1.99/month for Pro\*\*, but nothing is decided yet.
I want to keep it affordable.

\*\*What platforms will it support?\*\*

Currently, FrameCut is only available on \*\*iOS through TestFlight\*\*.
I’m also planning to bring it to iPadOS, macOS, and eventually Android, although I can’t promise release dates yet.

\*\*And this is where I could really use your help! ❤\*\*️

I’m looking for people who would like to test the app, try editing their own videos, and tell me what works, what doesn’t, and what’s missing.

I’ve also created a Discord server and a subreddit where we can discuss features, report bugs, share edits, suggest improvements, and basically build the app together as a community.

💬 \*\*Discor\*\*d: https://discord.gg/tuShzFERm

📱 \*\*Subreddi\*\*t: https://www.reddit.com/r/FrameCutOfficial/s/xJfJsw7OfP

If you’d like to join the TestFlight beta, let me know in the comments or join our Discord for access details.
I’m not claiming FrameCut is better than CapCut right now. It’s definitely not perfect, and there’s still a lot of work ahead.

But I’m hoping that with enough feedback and time, it could become a genuinely good, affordable alternative.
And honestly, the idea that something I started because of my wife’s CapCut subscription might eventually help other creators is pretty exciting.

Here is the TestFlight invite link:

\*\*Thanks for reading, and I’d love to hear what features you think a CapCut alternative absolutely needs!\*\* 🚀

with Black Friday coming up, i'm looking at my editing setup and wondering whether it's worth paying for a video editor or sticking with a free plan. most of my interest is in making short-form content, where trimming clips, adding captions, and making quick revisions can take up more time than expected.

CapCut is on my list because its workflow seems approachable for quick edits, and i'm curious whether the Pro features make a noticeable difference when you're editing regularly. i'm not assuming there will be a specific Black Friday deal, but i would like to know if it's worth watching for one.

for those who edit videos regularly, what features would make a paid editing app worth the cost? would you consider CapCut Pro for everyday editing, or wait until the free version starts limiting your workflow?

Hey! I'm building my portfolio as a short-form video editor. I'm looking for real, unedited talking-head or podcast footage to turn into a professional 30–60-second Reel.

I can edit one short clip for free in exchange for permission to showcase the finished edit in my portfolio. I'm comfortable with captions, motion graphics, B-roll, sound design and retention-focused pacing.

If you have unused footage, I'd love to collaborate!

Hello , I have 1440p60 .mkv multi audio track OBS recordings and want to edit them on my S11 Ultra. Tried lumafusion but there were no visuals, only the audio. Should I remux them to mp4 and try again or use another software? If remux is mandatory I need suggestions because I am away and cant access my pc right now. File sizes vary between 20 and 80 gb. Any suggestion would be nice. Edit: Realised I didnt tell what I need to do actually. I will change audio levels track by track, cut and mute some parts. Maybe put a music at the background. Nothing really professional tbh.

Hi! I'm 22, a graduate from a film school majoring in post production, mostly editing. I've been looking and applying for jobs in post production houses for the past year, but no luck... I've been wondering if there is anything wrong with how I present myself on my CV.

I had a typical Canva CV before that landed me all the internships, but here I saw that hiring managers prefer a simple Word CV, but I don't really understand why. I'm attaching both versions and I really need some advice.

2: https://postimg.cc/FkvsyFbt

Mostly, I'm sending applications for post-production assistant jobs, but these days I've started sending applications for editor positions, which is a long shot, but you never know, I guess.

I just want to make sure there is nothing completely wrong with what I'm doing here.

Hey! How are you?

I'm a professional video editor from Brazil with 10 years of experience, and I'm currently building my wedding film editing portfolio.

I'm looking for raw wedding footage to create cinematic highlights and teasers.

I'd be happy to edit a 60–90 second wedding teaser completely free, in exchange for permission to showcase the final edit in my portfolio.

You can also use the finished video for your own portfolio or social media.

I work with Adobe Premiere Pro, focusing on storytelling, emotional pacing, color grading, and sound design.

If you have any old or unused wedding footage, I'd love to collaborate!

Hi so i wanna start a page its for wrestling probably on tiktok whoever is willing to help me edit would mean alot doesn't need crazy edits at all probably will take like less than 10 minutes to edit thank u

I've been using CapCut for video editing and have been thinking about upgrading to Pro. Black Friday deals are coming up, so I'm weighing whether it's worth paying for or if the free version does the job just fine.

For anyone who's used both, are there any Pro features that genuinely make editing easier or save you time? Or is the difference not that noticeable?

i miss this app but when i checked the playstore, it didnt show up so i searched why and it said its a potential malware but im not so sure

i checked uptodown and it said its updated in 2025 even when the app was deleted in 2023

I’m trying to understand how professional editors handle final delivery when a project has lots of cutdowns, aspect ratios, languages, captioned/clean versions, or client-specific formats.

For example, imagine a campaign requiring 16:9, 9:16, 1:1 and 4:5 versions, several durations, and multiple languages.

Before sending the final folder:

1. How do you track which files are expected?
2. Do you inspect every file or only spot-check?
3. What do you use: spreadsheets, MediaInfo, an NLE checklist, QC software, or something internal?
4. What was the last delivery mistake that caused a resend or re-export?
5. Roughly how long does final package checking take?

I’m particularly interested in package-level mistakes: missing variants, duplicate or stale versions, incorrect filenames, unmatched subtitles, and files exported with the wrong dimensions or frame rate.

I’m researching the workflow and would appreciate examples from real deliveries.

I have used adobe software for all of my editing purposes for the past 10 years. I’m a professional editor in the world of B2B construction progress media and social media. I feel like more corporate places often expect adobe premiere for video editing. But I know AVID is industry standard in film. Some use Davinci.

Can someone give me a breakdown of the best use cases of the major video editing software, the best ai video editing software for editing to date, and the best photo editing software?

Hey guys, I’m making Cut-it, an open-source video editor based on Shotcut. I wanted something simple and lightweight because editing on a low-end PC can be a pain.

I’m releasing the beta today and would love for some of you to try it. It’s still early, so honest feedback about bugs, confusing stuff, or things you’d want added would help a lot.

Let me know what you think!

Could the experts here help me out? My laptop has the following specs:

- AMD Ryzen 7 8745H

- 32GB RAM

- 512GB SSD + 2TB SSD (added separately)

Yet, it starts lagging even with just a little bit of editing. Has anyone else experienced this? Could you please tell me how to fix it? :((((
