The timelineĬlipchamp is a multi-track video editor, which means you can have multiple video and audio files playing at the same time.

On the right side, you can see filters and effects to apply to your content in the final video. On the left side of the screen, you'll see all the content tools - the media you've already added to the project, stock assets, templates, and so on. In this screenshot, we haven't added any media yet, so it looks very clean, but you can add as many tracks as you want. Below that, you'll see the video timeline with all the tracks you've currently added.

Front and center is you video preview, so you can see what the final result looks like, and you can also resize and move video elements around, in addition to changing the aspect ratio if you want to target a specific format. You can only export video in 1080p resolution, but unfortunately, this is a limitation that also exists for the Essentials plan.Īs you can see above, the video editing interface is divided into a few sections. Some of these are free, but not all of them. You get a multi-track video editor, you can use all of your own assets, and you can also use some stock assets provided by Clipchamp. The free plan includes most of the basic features you'd expect. Microsoft recently simplified the pricing structure for Clipchamp, so now you can either use the free plan or subscribe to the Essentials plan for $11.99 per month, or $119.99 a year. Until recently, Clipchamp offered multiple plans you could choose from, and it was arguably overpriced for what it offered. One thing to note is that Clipchamp also has a paid plan, though it's not mandatory for the most part. However, the app does potentially make it easier to access. Clipchamp is a web-based video editor, so even if you don't have the app, you can always access it on the Clipchamp website.
