Finally! Someone who can explain the basics without jumping right into the advanced stuff. I wish though that someone would demonstrate how to edit a single video. Yes, I am very new to this. Thank you.
Yep, that's what I'd like to see. Editing a simple video- trim clips, add transitions, maybe a voice over. and publish
Exactly why I'm here.
he created openshot lol
Hi
Best beginners tutorial ever for openshot
This is a perfect tutorial for someone with no video editing experience whatsoever! Well paced and clear explanations. Thank you!
There are so many crappy tutorials for various programs, then along comes Jonathan... Excellent explanations, pleasant voice, and the feeling you are listening to a trusted friend! Thank you so much Jonathan! Robert Ronan Montana
Having struggled for years with Corel Videostudio, slow performance, crashes and general poor useability I decided to look for a replacement of which there are many. Most were either too complicated, buggy or just did not work until I found OpenShot. Not only did it work out of the box but I created a video with fixed images, video content and music within half an hour of downloading. I could not believe how easy it was and the tutorials have helped with some of its finer abilities. Well impressed Jonathan. You can expect a cheque in the post ;-) Yes - I will be donating shortly. A very professional piece of software. Highly reccomended.
I’m reluctant to choose this over PowerDirector because most reviews say Openshot has too many bugs and crashes all the time.
But your tutorials are so much better than theirs; you go nice and slow and cover small details which, asa new computer user, I find relief in. Not everyone was born knowing Nerd-Speak. So, since I can actually comprehend your instructions I’ll probably go with Openshot. Thanks man. ❤👌🏾
OpenShot is a simple and powerful video editor. These tutorials by Jonathan Thomas are superb. Thank you.
Finally, a clear tuition, not jumping straight into advance stuff like the rest do and loose everyone.
Legends say that many big UA-camrs were born here
I'm hoping to be one of those guys!

Same here, but use my vision to show whose evil/good in American politics and also other countries as well.
Amazing tutorial .... incredible! Believe me I've watch a number of tutorials on Openshot & sooo frustrating. You to the point, the examples & details what you CAN do in Openshot is mindblowing! WoW wish I found you right at the beginning instead of wasting hours & hours & hours of my life (& hair) & still a blank slate (i'm not that thick - I used CorelDraw etc a few years ago - not like zero idea). Thank you so much, Abundant blessings, love & light. May the Universe shine on you forever!
Dear Jonathan! Thank you very much for this very useful, well explained, easy to follow video that I really enjoyed watching!
I have just started with your tutorial and, God, I learned so much in such a little time. Thanks for making it so clear. I will carry on the next ones as soon as I master this first lesson. A world of possibilities. thanks Jonathan.
There's a lot of fun stuff I could do with OpenShot in the quarantine.
Thanks Jonathan 👍
yep 11 months ago and we are still in quarantine
You get right to point...and yet you made it uncomplicated. How refreshing!
tbh honest i found a lot of people saying filmora or other apps but i never found any other editor as much as easy and simple as openshot, so thanks to openshot which make things a lot more easier.
Jonathan you are fantastic, for the job you have done with this software, you are the best!
Wow yall made some BIG changes to this. One thing I hated about "open source" was it's pragmatics and crashes... which this app did LOT and I hated most about this app at the time was it was tedious adding transitions and stuff and now you guys have it to where you can select each one per frame that's freakin awesome!!!! I just upgraded my laptop with an SSD drive and it's 20 times faster now and not imma try this again. I have a feeling imma love this now. THANK YOU for continuing to be open source and I hope people are donating to you to keep it that way before you corporatize it and charge a stupid subscription or some crazy price.
FINALLY! I found the answer to the question no one else answers! Thank you so much Jonathan! I just need to click and drag the multiple scenes on the timeline in order to move them all together. :-)
im openshot for life. i would/will be donating soon, thank you so much open shot i edited 42 videos since i found this, i made a goal to do 1 video a day for a year and this is my preffered program fro editing, thank you open shot i look forward to more features, i am behind open shot 100 percent and will do whatever i can to help make the program better thank you openshot
taking a little time to learn this, thank you very much Jonathan, all your efforts are appreciated
Really huge thanks Jonathan for this program, I have only
just come across it and the more I mess with it the more impressed I am.
monitors (and have done for about 20 years now) otherwise I quickly forget what
is behind the window I am working in) and discovering that I can drop the
preview window or really any other function window onto another monitor just
put a huge smile on my face. Adding to
that the fact that the settings are remembered for the next time it’s opened
well my face is hurting,
, thank you for your superb effort and for putting the work into the public
domain. I cannot thank you enough and a
donation will be on its way as soon as finances permit as I am a pensioner and
money has to be rationed.
Thank you, Mr. Thomas. I am learning how to navigate the "Openshot Video Editor." I an old end-user: before the Internet the only technology I opened was a book or newspaper. Therefore, I appreciate the slower pace of your tutorials. Best wishes to you and all your "students." Let's knock 'em dead one day, figuratively speaking of course, with great videos.
Wow thank you I learned a lot from that. I have been using the software for a few weeks. I'm really excited to see more videos from you and provide quality videos for my business.
Excellent ! I just tried to learn by opening my OpenShot, watch and stop your video in here, and make it in my software. Brilliant ! Easy to learn and I feel the power in it :) Now, I'm jumping to the next lesson ...
Dear Jonathan, thakns for introducing all the features of OpenShot with utmost clarity. it's a great time to be with you.
Great! Straight to the point and exactly what you need to know without filling your head with random crap! Thank you!
I've just uploaded my very first video using OpenShot Video Editor, without even watching a tutorial, it was THAT easy!! thank you!! ^_^
Sometimes I use Openshot to edit my videos (not that I edit very well) but I find it quite nice to use. Maybe not the most powerful and exact video editor ever, but it's good enough for me and I like that there are ready to use effects. More experienced editors might require more detailed editing software, but since I'm useless at editing, Openshot is helping me learn about video editing quite a bit :)
What a great tutorial. This guy understands how to speak to noobs.
Thank you for such a nice lesson. Made things so easy for an old man like me.
What a fantastic tutorial .Thank goodness we have guys like Jonathan.I was going crazy trying to work it out on my own Thanks a million !
Thought things were going to well .When i add transitions by moving over each clip the sound goes wonky Arrrrgggg
Yea, I just discovered OpenShot. Really appreciate you taking the time to create and post this video. I'm good with new software but this is a lot easier to take a few minutes and learn from someone who already knows.
Your video should come with all OpenShot install files! [=
You are so clear at teaching which made me to think that I wish I had you in my college. Thank you so much!!
Im so excited to use this software. Thank you for creating it and for your help. Straight forward and easy to follow.
Absolutely superb - very well-paced for a beginner (as opposed to too many others).
THANK YOU!
Jonathan, thanks so much for all the work you have put into this software. I just used it to create my first edited video. Looking forward to more tuts!
Thank You So Much! I Was Totally Confused, Till I Saw This! You Make It So Simple. I want To See All 3 Parts!
Jonathan, I would like to thank you for this fantastic software and also the tutorial on youtube. This is really appreciated and I try to imagine the time and the efforts you put on this work. I just can understand why all this work is available for free. Some people like you are very generous and know what mean the word ; SHARE. So, Thomas I"m learning with you and your software and try to produce some interesting things in video. Again Jonathan....it's amazing and I THANK YOU SO MUCH
thanks dude, had to use this for a video essay . You're a lifesaver
really good video there bud; a lot of confusing video software out there. This one looks simple; thanks for all your help.
probably the simplest editing software out there at the moment
Awesome video, i am very new to all of these stuff online, i dont know how to make a video or whatever because we have no computers and internet in my younger years lol, now am a senior citizen but i want to make use my time after retirement to learn about this and teach it to my grandkids, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS TUTORIAL...
Its incredible that this program is free, it is very useful
Jonathon thanks very much that was exactly what I needed! Could not figure out how to export, and you nailed it. Cheers mate.
Very well done! Clear and slow enough for beginners, thanks
Just what this noob needed. Thanx for a very good tutorial series. Others are just too much, too fast, too poor quality.
Thanks Jonathan! Very helpful since I forgot to save my zoom video in the cloud and couldn't edit it within my zoom account! You're very appreciated!
I was a Master Training Specialist in the US Navy. It's not only important to show or tell how something is done, but also why? Why are you doing this or that. Explain the purpose of what you just demonstrated "Why" ties everything together and helps the student understand and remember. Better than the last five so-called beginner videos though.
Thanks Jonathan for making this amazing software available for free god bless you
Genious produce! Almost professional but exactly easy. Zillon thanks for your creativity and altruism for sharing your extensive labor open source.
I loved your demo...you are so relaxing to listen to and learn at the same time! Are you going to be as good with 'cutting clips'? That's where I fail every time!
Great video Jonathan, Thank's for the share , there are quite a few videos on OpenShot but mostly they explain things to quickly before you have time to grasp things, but yours was a great pace . Brian UK.
Great intro video. Really helpful. Thanks. I'm off to have a go now!!
Hi Jonathan, I have been using vsdc but I have jumped over to OpenShot and I really like it. I have watch your playlist and found it very helpful. But can you tell me is there a tool that increases the volume of a video ? Cheers
Great job! I learned enough to get started with openshot and know what I am doing. Thank you.
TNice tutorials was an amazing tutorial. You are a great teacher

Great video.

Thank you for a very comprehensive, well explained and easy to follow instructions! :)
Great tutorial video simple and easy to understand , not like other videos , they forget that it is for beginners and some people like me have never used a editing program before .
Thank you
Question : Can I save clips to a stick or external hard drive so I don't use up all my space on my computer
I found this tutorial very helpful as somebody who is new to the world of video editing.
That's cool. I'm going to try this video editor. Hopefully, it wouldn't lag on me. But no matter what, your tutorial was great. Two thumbs up!
The creator of open shot. I just subscribed
Hi, awesome video. Will you tell me with what software you turned your computer screen into the background here?
Unbelievable - this is so fantastic. Thank you so much!
Thanks for the nice comment, and for your support of OpenShot! Glad this video was useful!
Very informative. Easy to understand. Thanks a lot..
Very helpful but u should show how to take out parts of a clip with the same audio and how to turn down the original audio and adjust added music
Wooow !! this is really Fantastic! and so easy explained!! Thank You !
wonderfully covered nicely explained and making newcomer in the comfort zone. Thanks a lot sir.
Very easy operation as compared to other available VDO editor Congrats
Hi! You have developed a super product...thanks! I have only watched the first two videos so far...so maybe my question will be answered in a subsequent video. But...what if all I have is one long clip of raw footage...and I want to snip out the unwanted segments...and then splice together several different segments with transitions, into one finished piece? Is there a tutorial that demonstrates that?
Thank you for this tutorial very to understand and very clear explanation.
Salamat po at may natutunan ako kahit maiksi mahusay
Thanks! This will really help me with my dream youtuber career!
Thanks helping a bit so far and I'm glad you made it simple ( cuz I go from moviemaker to this so I'm wanting simple lol)
I have just started using Windows Movie Maker but I found it a little confusing... I have watched your first 2 tutorials and although this looks VERY similar, it does at first glance appear to be a little more user friendly!? I am going to download this tonight and give it a go. Thankyou 👍😉
Very pleasant and clear lesson. Thank you!
Jonathan you made it very simple and I am going to download and try a VIDIOOOOO. Thanks.
BROOO thankyou so much, this really helped and the tutorial was really easy to use as well :)
Thank you for this tutorial. So helpful. Kudos
Fantastic tutorial!!! I am new to video editing and you presented this in a way that even I could follow and understand.
Thank you for the simple approach. Very helpful. Might you slow down a little next time? That would make it perfection.
Thanks. Your tutorial was very helpful. I had no idea about overlapping the clips or about the add to timeline dialog!
thanks, I clicked the ads cause I wanna support you!
Hi Jonathan: Congratulations for your excellent content. I have a question for you. If I want to create a 10 minute long video in OPENSHOT, how may I set or adjust the timeline, so I can see all the minutes, and seconds, until the 10th minute, where my video will end.? Kindly appreciate your answer. Thanks. Jose.
great Tutorial. Easy to understand and follow. Thanks Johnathan.
Very Good Explanation. Greetings from India
Hi Jonathan - I just found out about your software from a buddy today...looks awesome..thank you...
Hi bro, thanks for the informative tutorial video..
It is really very helpful video. I have just download open shot and this guide is very good.
Thanks Jonathan for sharing!
Thanks Jonathan, I have learned a lot from your presentation!
thank u dude, and also what server do u play in minecraft?
I couldn't love this less...thank you Jonathan! You're the man! Muah!! One more thing, is it possible to create a text slide-show without much struggle? How?
Thank you for the tutorial is easy the way you explain it. What is the name of the audio background you use I like it.
Thanks Jonathan...This was an impeccable piece of tutorial
Best tutorial👌easy to learn thanks indeed
If it was a problem for me, it's a problem for someone out there too. To move the rectangles around to place them around the desktop for better work flow, go to view and select 'unfreeze', THEN you see the 'x' on the corners of each rectangle. The tutorial doesn't say that, I had to find it by testing all settings in 'view'.
Love and appreciation from Pakistan
