Every month we focus on a different digital theme. April is video editing month!
We’ll bring you video editing workflow explainers throughout this month, as we create a springtime video with a chilled-out vibe! This is what we’ll cover…
- Get started with Vegas Pro or Adobe Premiere Pro
- Add video clips to the timeline and arrange them
- Add transitions and fades between video clips
- Add text titles and a soundtrack
- Export a sequence to an MP4 video file
All our explainers are suitable for BEGINNERS, so if you’ve never used a video editor before you’ll be fine!
Vegas Pro is at version 22 as at April 2025. A FREE trial is available, and the software can be purchased for a one-off fee or on a rolling subscription basis:


Premiere Pro is part of Adobe’s ‘Creative Suite’ of applications. A FREE trial is available for new users, and the software can then be purchased on a rolling subscription basis:


If you’d prefer to use a browser-based, AI-powered video editor we’re going to be taking a look at runway.ml later this year!
