Complete OpenShot Course : Beginner to Advance Video Editing

Speed up your OpenShot editing by using and customizing keyboard shortcuts in the keyboard settings, including setting a split (slice) function shortcut.

Set up your OpenShot workspace by enabling advanced view, undocking and arranging panels, resizing the preview and sidebar, and locking the layout with freeze view.

Import media into OpenShot using the plus icon, project files window, or drag and drop from your file explorer. Use filtering and search to quickly locate videos, audio, or images.

Choose the OpenShot project profile and occupy the preview canvas fully to avoid black space in export. The profile isn't permanent, and a 360 project can export as 720p hd.

Manage the open shot workspace by adding, deleting, and renaming tracks, and placing any file type on any track; import media, zoom the timeline, and navigate playback.

Mark important moments with markers using the toolbar, then jump between key points—markers or key frames—using previous and next tools, to efficiently navigate clips.

Create and customize titles in OpenShot by choosing formats from titles menu, editing text, color, and background, then drag them onto the project timeline, including animated 3D titles via Blender.

Learn to apply effects in OpenShot by dragging them onto clips, adjusting properties, and using keyframes, then use chroma key and brightness filters to make your video stand out.
