An Overview and Review of KineMaster Mobile Video Editor

One of those things that no longer surprises us is the ability to record and edit videos while on the road. 

However, we are surprised by the variety of tools available to help you accomplish so effectively. No company, no matter how big or little, can avoid using video as a major component of digital marketing. Video is really essential. 

For this reason, we'll look at one of the greatest solutions today. It's the video editor Kinemaster Pro. 

For iOS and Android, Kinemaster is a free video editing software that requires a membership. Actually, both gadgets have a similar UI. 

Many people have been taken aback by the Kinemaster app, which has been included in many blog pieces that rank "the best mobile video editors for 2019." We tested it, and in the end we'll provide you a summary and our comments on how it worked.

What a Subscriber Is Entitled To:

Unlimited premium assets are yours to own. Additionally, there are no commercials while you are editing. 

The most alluring feature is that videos in high definition (1080K to 4K) may be downloaded without a watermark ("Made with KINEMASTER"). Therefore, if you work as a professional video editor, getting a membership makes sense. 

On the other hand, if you are a beginner at editing or use it sometimes, the free version will provide all your requirements.

Beginning to Use Kinemaster

Unlike other applications where there are noticeable variations across operating systems, the app's design is almost the same on both iOS and Android. Let's examine the appearance of the Kinemaster interface.

Landing Page Upon using the Kinemaster app for the first time, you are greeted with a landing page including all of your completed projects along with links to launch a new one, access assistance, launch the Kinemaster YouTube channel, and choose the settings tab.

The Tab for Main Settings

The settings tab of the main landing page has a gear icon. Click this button to configure some of your app's hidden controls. 

Here are some more controls for your subscription status. The options are for editing, sorting, and file locations; however, there are some differences between the iOS and Android versions.

Launching a Novel Initiative

From the landing page, you can begin working on a new project or continue modifying an existing one. 

When you decide to start a new one, the app will prompt you to choose whether you want to create a square, vertical, or horizontal video. Make an informed decision since you cannot go back and reverse it. 

Moreover, confirm that the clips you want to utilize are in that format; otherwise, you will need to enlarge and modify them to match the aspect ratio.

Video Import into KineMaster

Click the Create New button to add your video and begin an edition. 

Next, you have the option to choose between several aspect ratios, including 16:19, 4:5, and 2.35:1, photo display mode, photo duration, and transition duration. 

You can also upload files from your albums, the camera on your smartphone, or the KineMaster stock library. 

One very humanized feature is the ability to import fresh editing material at any moment by clicking the Media button after you've entered the operating interface.

 Interface for KineMaster Operation

The KineMaster interface's horizontal screen functionality is really entertaining. Our phone's screen could restrict our ability to manipulate, so this specific desktop-like style is really appealing.

It is thought of as a mobile PR version in the meantime. The Media Panel, which is represented by the big circle on the right, improves the interface's clarity and usability. It is thus simple to look up and utilize the functionalities it offers.

You may capture real-time pictures and record videos in the center of this circle. (Note: When using this feature for the first time, a brief box asking for permission will appear; click Agree.) And the first layer, known as the Primary Timeline, will contain the stuff you upload.

The Primary Timeline, as its name suggests, establishes the duration of the whole film. 

Thus, there cannot be any spaces in this layer between any two frames. You can import files, record audio, use the camera on your smartphone, add layers for different kinds of overlays, add music, and access the KineMaster Asset Store by navigating around the circle.

Editing with Multiple Layers

By selecting the layer button located on the right, you may arrange and arrange layers, create and mat paintings, and more. 

Even so, a newbie with little expertise will find the multi-layer procedure challenging. With KineMaster, basic editing tasks like adding text to films are really simple.

Conclusion

 It is really simple to get results quickly, and the learning curve is mild. Kinemaster is one of those programs that will make your job as a social media marketer and content creation easier and quicker. 

There are a few areas that need improvement. One little limitation is that you cannot adjust the aspect ratio from inside the editor.

 Large and lengthy videos also take a while to export. Additionally, it would be convenient if you could use both iOS and Android applications with a single membership. Depending on the circumstances, some of us utilize all of the gadgets we own.
