iSkysoft Video Editor 2.5

iSkysoft Video Editor makes it easy to create video compilations. It can take pretty much all the popular video, audio and music files as input and it lets you put them together into a single video that you can later share with friends or upload to YouTube. The application has some video editing features, but it really is no competition to Final Cut Pro or iMovie. Some of the things that you can do with the videos that you add to your project are cropping and trimming them, rotating them and adjust some of their properties like brightness, contrast, saturation, and even playback speed.

Where this application really shines is in its ease of use. Everything that you need to make a great-looking compilation is right there in the main window. At the bottom of the screen, you will see two timelines. The top one is where you drag your video or photo files to use in your final video. The bottom one is for the soundtrack. Above the timelines, you will see a video player on the right and a list of available transition and intro/credit effects. These can be dragged into the timeline to apply them.

The export options are varied. You can export your movie to a video file, selecting a specific format or device. Or you upload it directly to YouTube from the application. Lastly, your movie can be burned into a DVD or ISO file.

In short, although you won't make studio-like movies with this application, it works for the more common tasks like photo and video slideshows and basic videos. It has good export options and it is very easy to operate.
