Movavi makes the neutral black and grey panels look a little more interesting thanks to a subtle cool hint of blue. Most modern NLE apps have a neutral dark grey workspace so you can focus on editing without being distracted by the interface. There’s the usual bin for accessing project assets such as video and audio clips, a timeline to arrange clips in order and a viewer to display the edited content as your show takes shape.

Once you’ve added multiple effects to a clip you can modify the layered effects using sliders. If we had to place Movavi on the NLE spectrum we’d place it closer to Final Cut Pro and Premier Pro than we would to iMovie or Adobe Premiere Elements, due to its feature packed toolset and large collection of assets. Apple Final Cut Pro costs fives times more but it only got motion tracking added to its toolset in the last year. Unlike iMovie Movavi has object tracking, so you can make a graphic or an effect automatically follow the movement of a person in the clip (see our test video for an example). Movavi doesn’t hold you by the hand but it does give you pop ups that contain little movies which explain what particular panels do. Premiere Elements offers guided edits that take the novice step-by-step through the process of non-linear video editing.
There’s also a range of audio tools such as the option to add reverb to a track as well as adjusting its EQ.Īt one end of the NLE spectrum we have entry level apps such as iMovie and Adobe Premiere Elements. It also has drag and drop filters and LUTs to stylise your footage in an instant, or you can make manual adjustments to colour and tone using sliders. However, for its relatively cheap price, it packs a surprising number of extra tools and assets, including the option to composite green screen footage using chroma key, and stabilise wobbly handheld footage. Movavi has all the bells and whistles you’d expect from a non-linear video editing app, such as the ability to add titles and transitions to give your programme a slick post-production polish.
