Our Thoughts
Video Editing has improved quite a bit since a few years. My husband has always been interested in editing his own videos and have fun with it. More recently, we had the idea of doing little videos on experiments taken from homeschool books and present them.
When I contacted CyberLink, we were having some issues with another video editing program to process our footage from our digital video camera. In the hopes that PowerDirector would be able to do it without any problems, I asked if it would be possible to review it. Interestingly enough, when I contacted CyberLink they were in the midst of releasing the new version of PowerDirector. Consequently, we were able to discover the new PowerDirector 9 while having fun at the same time.
PowerDirector 9 is easy to use and will give you all the tools to help you edit and create fun videos.
Below, you can see some of the screens used to create transitions and effects.
What we particularly like with PowerDirector is that you can now edit the audio of the footage you do. In our particular project, there was some clicks we could hear once in a while. We quickly figured out that it was the cap of the camera that was hitting the tripod during the filming. My husband was able to remove this clicking sound easily using the WaveEditor.
The software comes with 105 video effects as well as 156 transition effects. You will also be about to perform video enhancements through The TrueTheater technology like noise reduction, fix video backlight and color correction to name a few.
This new version of PowerDirector can deal without any problem with the HD technology. As I mentioned above, we had some issues with another video editing software. We can say that PowerDirector 9 was able to process the HD video taken without a glitch. Fantastic!
This is a great software for homeschooler to learn video editing. Older kids can even videotape some fun little skits and produce them with PowerDirector 9. For anyone interested in editing their videos or learning more about it without paying expensive courses, we recommend this software. You will be able to produce fun videos to share with your family and friends as well as a school project.
We are currently working on our first video. We still have to film and edit the first part of it. Consequently, it is not complete yet but as soon as it would be I will post an update and show you what we have done with PowerDirector 9.
