FlexClip Review – Know about its Video Making and Editing Features 

Once you log in, your next step is to explore what the tool can do and figure out how to use it. The big question is, is it worth your time? Let's find out!

1. Templates

Discover over 500 templates in our tool, sorted into five main groups and 60+ sub-groups. Exploring them might seem tricky, but don't worry; we've done the essential work for you. Specifically, we took a closer look at the Business and Services category and tested one of its templates just for you.

When you open a template, choose your preferred resolution. In our example, for the Company Explainer 2 template, we picked the 16:9 aspect ratio. Click on the customize button below.

After this, you'll find options on the left side, where we'll gradually throw light.

We'll move toward the ‘Text' portion in the next step. After double-clicking on the text you want to change, you'll get a writing bar on the left, where you can add the text accordingly.  

By using the adjusting points, you can adjust the size and placement of the text. Rest. At the top, you can see other options that help to edit the text, like font style, font size, colour, bold, italics, alignment, and opacity. Along with these, you get a unique text-to-speech feature present in the second from right.

Along with these editing options for text, you also get a variety of text styles to choose from and make your video text look appealing.

Sometimes, you'll need help finding the present clip in the template. You can replace existing video clips by hovering over them and selecting “Add as a layer,” as we did in the second scene of the video, Or add your own from the media or video section.

When you click on the video you want to add, you'll see an option in the bottom left that says “Add as a layer, ” and here you go. Just click on that, and you can directly replace the one attached to the laptop screen inside the scene.

Also, if you click on it, it will generally be added to the whole screen.

Audio is the next point, where you can choose from various options in the tool's music library and add the sound per your need.

Another option is adding elements per your requirement in your scene. From a random shape to a social media icon, the library has it all and helps to make your scene or slide more stylish and valuable. 

Next in line is ‘Overlays'. The word explains its meaning – to lay over something (here the scene). Here, you get various options to add to your scene as per your choice. It gives a significant visual effect to your slide, and you can use different styles for different scenes. We tried to add a lens flare effect, which you can see in our 2nd slide.

Adding was fine, but the next question is, if you need to delete the overlay effect, how'll you do so? So the answer is the icon just on the right of the screen. By clicking on it, you can select the overlay you've added and click the delete button on your keyboard, and it's done.

In the end, the extra yet essential tools can help craft a video smoothly. We'll look into these tools in detail while learning how to craft a video from scratch.

After reviewing these features, we'll bring your focus to the scene's timeline. You can see this option below the editing screen of the video.

After clicking on that, you can observe and change the time and sequence in which all the elements of that particular scene will appear in the final video.

Now you can save and export your final video by choosing the option you need to (Video, GIF, or Audio)

You can export the video up to 720p in your free plan, too, but to avail of the option of 1080p, you must have a plus plan.

It will take a few minutes to render your video. Meanwhile, you can select the right option to share your video

• You can copy and share the link.
• You can directly share it with your social media handles.
• You can either keep the link public or private
• You can also turn the download option on or off.

2. Video Editing

After exploring FlexClip's templates and editing features, let's explore creating a video from scratch. Some features have been covered in the ‘Templates' section, so feel free to use those without additional guidance.

Click on the “Create a Video” button on the homepage. Now, choose the mode and aspect ratio; we opted for Timeline mode and a 16:9 ratio.

If you have a script, skip this step. If not, select “AI Video Script” for assistance.

Write your topic, and choose the video duration (short, medium, or long). We chose a short duration for simplicity.

Here is your script, and now, again, if you can create a video on your own, you can skip this step. 

However, if getting help from AI would be better, click on the option – AI to Video. 

Skip this step if you can create the video on your own. Otherwise, click on “AI to Video.” Choose between AI Creation (using the complete script) or AI Excerpt (using the main idea and limited text).

We used AI Excerpt but uploaded media to make the video more relatable. You can use stock videos/photos from the library.

Thus, we added clips from its library and created an introductory video for your understanding.

As we all know video, video is complete with audio. The tool automatically adds a basic audio. You can change it by adding your audio or choosing one from its library from the ‘Audio' section on the left. 

Add audio from the tool or upload your own. Edit audio features (volume, fade, trim) highlighted in the blue box.

Moreover, there is an option to convert your subtitle to voiceover. When you click on the video's subtitle in the edit section, you will find an option, ‘Subtitle to Speech.'

Convert subtitles to voiceover by clicking “Subtitle to Speech.” Customize voiceover language, style, speed, and pitch.

Easily adjust voiceover timing by sliding them according to scenes.

You can use two other options to add some exciting elements.

First, we will talk about Giphy Text.

In this, you can add the text in the search bar and get it styled in different GIF ways. I selected the third option and added it in the first scene at the top of the laptop. It added an appeal in the video.

The next is ‘Branding.' You can add your brand name as a watermark, as the name suggests. You can write it in the text form or add the image or logo.

You can also adjust the size, opacity, and the position of the image or text.
