The large amounts of video and image files that we create with our smartphones and cameras are a great source of slideshows and movies. All we need is an easy-to-use video editor that gives us the opportunity to produce pro-looking videos, complete with transitions, filters, and effects. Icecream Video Editor is a free alternative to expensive and much more complicated video editors, suitable for any user with a minimum of editing skills.
As its overall functionality, the program’s interface is far from being difficult to use or hard to move around. Its clear and modern look and feel flattens its learning curve significantly. Even the timeline where you can add all your videos and photos, transitions, and filters is as simple and intuitive as it can be.
Icecream Video Editor combines simple editing tools with nice video effects to give continuity and a touch of professionalism to your output video files. You can rotate, flip, trim, and crop your videos to make them fit your preferences and remove any unwanted fragments, and add credits, comments or just a title to your video thanks to its text utility. You can also adjust the image quality by tweaking – with the help of a set of intuitive sliders – the brightness, contrast, or the saturation values. You can even customize the speed of your videos (or a fragment of a video file) to create an interesting slow-motion or speed-up effect. The original soundtrack can be easily removed or replaced with a new one, or combine the existing audio with a new background music or audio effect. Of course, the volume can be adjusted, and fade-in and fade-out effects can be accurately applied with just a few clicks.
Whatever you do with your resulting file – be it a slideshow or a video, or a combination of both – is up to you. This video editor does not provide any disc authoring tools to create navigable DVDs or Blu-ray discs, but it allows you to create high-quality 4K video files for you to enjoy on your TV set or carry with you on a USB device. This free utility is excellent for amateur camera users who wish to make the most of their home videos and photographs with the minimum of effort. I can only recommend you to give it a try.
