While not the best editing software out there, it probably is the best FREE editing program available. I'm talking about HitFilm 3 Express by FXhome. Free to download @ https://hitfilm.com/express

They ask you to share the news to your social media before you download it but you can actually proceed without sharing. Though, I request you do. Spread the love.

Hitfilm 3 is great!

It's literally like Adobe Premiere and Adobe After Effects both in one software. You miss a few features from those two but Hitfilm is still a great software, especially considering Express is free!

I think I'll be sticking to Premiere and After Effects just because I'm still paying for Creative Cloud and it has more features. However, to anyone who hasn't paid for Creative Cloud yet, I'd highly recommend checking out Hitfilm 3 first. :)

My friend introduced me to HitFilm3 and I enjoy using it. However we both have the problem that we don't have any clue on putting in text... Can someone tell me? Thanks. 8D

Easy

Hey thanks for this! I'm really in need of a free editing software, and getting stuck to Movie Maker isn't really doing me good. I'll be trying HitFilm3 ASAP! Thanks again! You are awesome!

Wow...
I'll try this HitFilm 3 Express for sure!
I want a free video editor with this quality since forever! I'm so excited to try this out... I'm having a HUGE problem with my video for tomorrow. It should be online for 11AM tomorrow, but it's not even mounted yet. :(
This has to work!!

And can you use the converted file into HitFilm 3 Express? And how do you feel about the software?
