Action Movie Effects Review

Image
  Action Movie Effects is another point and shoot special effects application that adds pretty neat special effects to any video. This app requires no special skill set or knowledge to add effects into your video. The app is free to download and use although a few effects may be hiding behind a paywall. Generally speaking you get to use plenty of effects for free and only need to pay if you really want an effect that is not free. The paid effects cost anywhere from .99 to $1.99 and usually come in packs of two. Although the graphics on the app are amazingly clear this video uses a green screen that was not cooperative with the app. You do not need a green screen to use the app as it was raining when this was filmed and I shot the video in my studio. So head outside (if not raining) and create something amazing using Action Movie Effects. 

How To Use LumaFusion to Edit on Your iPad

Using LumaFusion to edit you videos can be an amazing experience. Just sit back and think of the way video used to be edited. Literally sitting in a room and cutting actual film and overlaying real film for effects. Then using computers and software like Adobe Premiere Pro and Apple iMovie or Final Cut Pro X. Now here we are today using LumaFusion on a mobile device and realizing that this editor is just as powerful as any desk top editing software.  In this video I will teach you how to use LumaFusion on your iPad. I cover every single step from importing, green screen, music, titles, and exporting. This software is a great alternative to Final Cut or Premiere Pro but not a full on replacement. The fact that Premiere Pro and Final Cut have After Effects and Motion makes a bit of a difference. But still yet, do not be fooled by the price and the fact that this is mobile software. LumaFusion is a beast to work with and can cut through even 4K footage with ease.

                                    Looking at the LumaFusion program we can see that it is very similar in looks to Final Cut Pro. Online most reviews call it a great editing program, and in fact it is. With this software you can edit together footage loaded on to your iPad and add titles, green screen effects, music, sound effects, transitions, work with the sound, and export in 4k. As a mobile video editor this beats out ALL others I have tried. iMovie what’s that? Most video editors love to use this software when they are traveling as a substitute for Final Cut. After all taking an iPad with you is a lot easier than taking a laptop.  With iPads touch screen capabilities using LumaFusion is a breeze since it is designed for touch interaction. Sliding clips into place and opening up new windows comes naturally if you are used to touch interface. The software is optimized for mobile allowing it run super fast and export 4K footage in record times. LumaFusion has some limited control o
