Editshare Lightworks Pro 12.5.0 Review

For pros and novices. Lightworks let newbies working at home produce quality content that is sure to captivate their audience. Created by the powerhouse, Editshare, Lightworks is the go-to pro video editor used by professionals ranging from up-and-coming directors to award-winning filmmakers. Aug 14, 2014 By Brady Betzel There are more NLE choices for editors these days than ever before: Avid Media Composer, Adobe Premiere Pro, Apple Final Cut Pro, Autodesk Smoke, Blackmagic Resolve 11, Sony Vegas and Lightworks. Remember that one? It has (quietly) been around for as long as Media Composer, and thanks to Editshare it has been given a new life. Continue reading →August 14, 2014. Nov 25, 2014 In this Lightworks v12 tutorial we will cover the steps required to activate a system without an Internet connection.

Enjoy the same tools as employed by the professionals with Lightworks

If you really want to make a splash editing movies, you’d ideally use the software that’s espoused by the professionals. In a perfect world, your software choice would have been associated with films that won major Academy and Emmy Awards. But there’d be a hefty price to pay, right?

Wrong: Lightworks – which ticks all the previous boxes, having been used on films such as Pulp Fiction and Shutter Island – is an open source package, free for anyone to use. (There's a Pro version with extras, but this build provides all the key features you need),

The feature list starts with support for a wide range of containers: ProRes, Avid DNxHD, AVC-Intra, DVCPRO HD, RED R3D, DPX, AVCHD (with AC3 audio), H.264, XDCAM EX / HD 422 and more.

Lightworks 12 offers a complete set of video-editing tools, including media management and fast, precise trimming. Need to apply some special effects? There’s multicam editing, stereoscopic support, multiple and secondary colour correction alongside effects that can be applied in real-time by utilising the power of your graphics chip.

The power of the program is indisputable, but despite an attractive front end, it’s not really a tool for the casual user who simply wishes to quickly and easily edit a selection of video footage together. Video-editing enthusiasts – along with professionals – will, however, find it’s a powerful tool to add to their armoury, particularly now it’s completely free.

Version 12 added a new content manager, enabling you to handle all your Clips, Edits, Bins and Searches from a single interface.

Whatever you're importing, the new Play Engine automatically identifies interlaced or progressive material, adjusts your settings accordingly, and improves playback performance overall.

There are new, smarter Colour Correction effects, easier to use, and making three previous effects - HSV, RGB, Curves - accessible from a single dialog.

Elsewhere, there's XML import from Final Cut Pro, drag and drop support for transferring Flow sequences, Clips and Subclips from Flow to Lightworks and back, and - for Mac OS only - ProRes Encoding.

What's new in v14.5? See changelog for more info.

Professional-level video editing is now yours for free – but despite the plethora of features and user-friendly interface, it’s definitely not a tool for beginners.
