Go with the flow

It may be a simple video editing tool, but you need to know some basic information to use it, right? Then from now on, let's find out what each button on the screen does! That way, you won't have to read this guide any further, right?

So we have prepared tutorials that allow you to follow along easily and learn the functions. Even if you are familiar with traditional video editing tools such as Premiere, please follow the tutorial at least once. You will be able to fully appreciate the advantages that only Videostew offers.

Follow the Wizard Mode

When you first learn computer programming, the very first thing you do is not computer theory or history, nor hardware. It starts with printing the letters "Hello World" on the screen.

< Coding starts with Hello World >

Through this, it's a simple feeling of 'I did something at least.' Let's start this way too. If you're not sure where to start with Starting Tutorial, please prepare by detaching this guide or viewing it alongside while editing in Videostew.

Add Project

Let's assume you're on the home screen first. Click the 'Start New Recipe' button on the upper left side.

< Create New Project >

Start Wizard Mode

Then the wizard mode will appear automatically. When you add a new project, it will be displayed first. Set the title as "First Project", and then click the "Next" button.

In the next screen, you will adjust the aspect ratio of the video you are going to make. For now, select Short video and proceed to the next step.

In the next screen, you will find various methods to start editing your video. Now, in the tutorial, select Idea Ingredients to create a script to be used in the video in one go.

Creating a Script

Now, let's create the script that will be used in the video. Set the style to Informational content and create information to refer to, as shown below.

What is well-being?
Definition
Daily tip for it

The script will be generated in each language according to the language entered here.

< Script is automatically generated in text editor >

If there is a part you want to edit additionally, you can edit it. For example, you can use the # key to set subtitles in the middle.

< Directly editing the script >

Selecting a Recipe

Now my script will be applied, that is, the recipe will be collaged. If you have uploaded the mouse, you can check the feeling through the preview.

Mouse Settings

In the final screen, the characteristics of the recipe to be applied are briefly displayed. Here you can set detailed settings for BGM, AI voice, and stock library auto-captioning.

Since all of these can also be edited, please make sure to press Done here.

Create Project Draft

Now a video draft will be created with the content we entered and the selected recipe.

< Video draft is generated automatically >

Preview the Entire Video

Now you've come to the stage where you can edit without any worries. Shall we try previewing the entire project without touching anything? You can preview the entire project through the dropdown (▼) icon next to the top center Preview button.

< Real-time Preview >

If there is a part you want to modify by adding at this step, refer to the [Edit all slides at once] section, assume it is complete, and move on to the next step.

Rendering and Download

So far, your project only exists on the Videostew server. Now it's time to render it and download it to "My Computer".

Do you see the "Download" button on the right side of the screen? Click it. A download window will open below. Click "Rendering" on the far left there. It is the process of converting the worked item into a video.

< 동영상 렌더링 및 다운로드하기 >

If you wait for a few minutes, you will see the Download button activated next to it. If you click on it, the completed video (mp4) will be downloaded to "My Computer". Open the explorer (or finder) and go to the download folder to replay it!

Manual Editing

Lastly, shall we try making it all ourselves without using [Recipe] or Wizard Mode this time? Through this process, you can get more familiar with many of Videostew's operations and features! Let's take it step by step!

< Create Video >

Add Project

Let's assume you're on the home screen. Press the 'Add Project' button on the left sidebar.

< Click the Add Project button >

The title is This time, we won't use Wizard Mode, but let's try clicking "Quick Start" on the lower left side.

< Click Start Immediately on the bottom left >

Changing to a Horizontal Project with a 16:9 Aspect Ratio

Depending on what the last action was, the aspect ratio of the screen in the Editing Window after 'Quick Start' might differ. In such cases, click on Size at the bottom right to change it to the desired screen ratio.

In this action, we will select a 1920x1080 (16:9) aspect ratio. Then you can verify that the Editing Window changes to a horizontal format.

< Changing the Project's Screen Aspect Ratio >

Inserting Images and Text

Select "Video > Stock" from the Library Window on the left, enter "ocean" in the search bar at the top, and search. Click on the image that you like, and it will be inserted into the Editing Window in the center at the default size.

< Inserting Image after Searching >

Next, we'll insert text. Select "Text > Stock" from the Library Window on the left side, and click on the font you like. Then, in the Editing Window in the center, a "Text" element with the corresponding font style will have been inserted.

< Text Insertion >

In the Editing Window, double-click on Text Element to switch to editing mode. Enter the content as "Let's protect the future of the Earth together". Once you've entered it, click outside the Editing Window to exit text editing mode.

< Exiting Text Edit Mode >

Grab the text and position it where you want, adjusting its size. Stick it at the bottom like a subtitle, and change the size by sliding to fit the slide size.

< Adjusting Text Position and Size >

Filling in Content

To duplicate a slide, press the "+ Add" button in the Slide Window. The last slide will be duplicated automatically. Typically, when working with videos, content changes continuously in a similar format, so this is why the operation works this way.

Once a new slide is duplicated and added, it is automatically selected. So, you can immediately double-click the text and change it to the desired content. This time, enter the text as "Protecting the Earth is also greatly influential for our own health and safety, as well as for our children's future."

< Created Slide >

By adding new slides and continuously changing the content like this, you've directly created 5 slides.

< Duplicate the slide to create 5 slides >

Readability Enhancement

Even after looking more closely, it seems like the text isn't very visible. You can change the font color, but there is no guarantee that the image in the background will always be the same color, so this time try adding a readability enhancement feature.

< Readability Enhancement Applied Screen >

Now, if you select each added slide and change the accessibility preservation four times, will that suffice? No! If you want to create a video, you would have to create dozens of slides, and if you have to repeat the process multiple times whenever there's a change, it won't be efficient, right? That's why Videostew offers a feature that allows you to change multiple slides at once.

Select all the slides you want to change from the Slide Window at the bottom. To select all, click on the first slide you want to select, and then click on the last slide while holding down Shift. Then all the slides in between will be selected at once.

< Multiple slides selected at once >

Do you see that the color of the handle in the Editing Window in the center has changed? This indicates that you can simultaneously apply changes to multiple selected slides.
