What it does

Edit clips, visual layers, motion titles, branding, audio, and delivery settings in one project.

Arrange multiple clips with frame thumbnails, trim handles, splitting, reordering, speed control, snapping, and timeline zoom.

Build with separate video, title-card, animated-text, and image lanes under one visible playhead.

Place logos and images directly on the stage, then control position, size, opacity, start, and duration.

Create animated text, full-screen title cards, intros, and outros with reusable motion presets and saved templates.

Apply a Brand Kit with primary, secondary, and text colors plus a reusable logo.

Mix source sound with background music using independent volume, mute, replace, remove, and loop controls.

Multi-select, duplicate, align, nudge, delete, undo, and redo timeline edits precisely.

Save and reopen Foldout video projects, collect linked media, recover autosaved drafts, and relink missing files.

Export a new local MP4 at original, 1080p, or 720p resolution with quality and frame-rate controls.

Edit on one timeline

Keep the frame, playhead, clips, overlays, and export in sync.

The working views below show the exact controls used to trim, arrange, layer, preview, and finish a video.

01

Build the full story on a multi-lane timeline

Arrange three real clips beside intro, outro, title-card, animated-text, and image lanes. Snap to the playhead, multi-select related items, then split, duplicate, or delete without touching the source files.

02

Place logos and titles directly on the frame

Select an image on the live stage, drag it into position, and tune X, Y, size, opacity, start, and duration while the final composition remains visible.

03

Balance source sound with a music bed

Mute or level the original clip audio, add or replace a music track, set its mix independently, and loop it to the timeline before the final export.

04

Reuse a consistent visual system

Keep primary, secondary, and text colors with a reusable logo, apply the kit to the selected title, and save the finished treatment as an animation template.

05

Save the edit with reusable bookends

Open, save, or save a new copy of the project while its intro and outro remain visible and ready to reuse in the next edit.

06

Choose the delivery settings, then export locally

Review the finished frame, choose original, 1080p, or 720p output with quality and frame-rate controls, then render a new MP4 on your Mac.

Why it belongs

Why Video Editor earns a place in the toolbox.

The practical details that make this job faster, clearer, or safer than doing it by hand.

A timeline built for complete edits

Frame thumbnails, a time ruler, a visible playhead, four content lanes, snapping, multi-select, and zoom keep clips and overlays readable while you work.

Precise, non-destructive clip editing

Trim from either edge, split at the playhead, change playback speed from 0.25x to 4x, reorder clips, duplicate items, and undo or redo without changing the source media.

Animated titles and reusable bookends

Add text over footage, insert full-screen title cards, and build intros or outros with the same animation presets, timing controls, transitions, and saved library used across Foldout.

Visual layers placed in context

Add a logo, watermark, or image at the playhead, position it directly on the stage, and control its X/Y placement, scale, opacity, start, and duration in the inspector.

Brand Kit for repeatable delivery

Keep a reusable logo and primary, secondary, and text colors together, apply them to the selected title or card, and save the result as a reusable animation template.

Source audio and music in one mix

Mute or level clip audio, add a background track, set music volume independently, replace or remove it, and loop it to match the timeline.

Projects that survive a longer edit

Save, reopen, or Save As a Foldout video project; collect linked media for handoff; recover autosaved drafts after interruption; and relink media if a source moves.

Local preview and controlled export

Scrub the assembled result, choose original, 1080p, or 720p output with quality and frame-rate settings, and render a new MP4 locally on your Mac.

Questions

Before you try Video Editor

Can I combine and rearrange several videos?

Yes. Add multiple MP4, MOV, or M4V clips, then trim, split, reorder, duplicate, retime, or delete them on one timeline.

Can I add animated titles, logos, and images?

Yes. Text, title cards, intros, outros, logos, and image layers each remain editable with their own timing and visual controls.

Can I reuse the same branding across videos?

Yes. Brand Kit stores primary, secondary, and text colors with an optional logo, and completed title treatments can be saved to the animation library.

Can I add music without losing the original audio?

Yes. Source and background-music volume are independent. You can mute the source, replace or remove music, and loop the music to the timeline.

Can I save an edit and continue later?

Yes. Save or reopen a Foldout video project, use Save As for a new copy, and collect linked media for a portable handoff. Autosaved drafts and missing-media relinking help recover interrupted projects.

Does editing change my original files?

No. Timeline edits are non-destructive. Foldout reads the source media and writes the finished export as a new file.

Can I edit a screen recording here?

Yes. Cinematic Recorder can send a completed take directly into Video Editor for trimming, titles, branding, audio, and export.
