I tried a couple of times, but I never could wrap my brain around the Blender video editor. I was completely lost, wasn't even sure if I was doing something video-related or drawing polygons which I think is something you can do with Blender? Never managed to find a decent tutorial, either. I'm sure the interface is great once you figure it out, though.
- Joeboy 11y agoThe most immediate oddness is that rather than left-clicking and dragging things, you right click to select things, and press 'g' to move them. Once you grok that it's not too hard to get started. I miss Blender's UI in other products now. With respect to Free Software video editing on Linux, I am currently team Blender but I can't say I've tested the other options exhaustively.
- justinsaccount 11y agoIt makes more sense if you know that 'g' is for 'grab' (and 's' for 'scale' and 'r' for 'rotate') Blender is a lot like VIM.
- nekopa 11y agoThis looks like a promising tutorial: https://www.packtpub.com/books/content/video-editing-blender-using-video-sequence-editor-part-1 https://www.packtpub.com/books/content/video-editing-blender... Part 2 of the tutorial is about basic editing, but the first part is interesting due to color correcting/processing the clips first...
