Poll: Which Editing Software Are You Currently Using?

Poll

by CineD StaffFebruary 28^th, 2024

The craft of editing is as old as filming, and while in the past it was reserved for full-time, dedicated professionals sitting in “proper editing studios”, within the last 15-20 years everything has changed. Thanks to the ever-growing power of the hardware, mobile editing has become extremely popular, next to “democratizing the skills”. After all, many of us are acting as a “one-man band”, adopting the “jack of all trades, master of none” philosophy.

Let’s pause the camera-related questions for now (Don’t worry, we will be back with additional polls soon). It’s time to shift our focus to the other side of the equation: editing…

Here at CineD, we handle the editing of all our reviews and other video content internally. However, as our publishing frequency increases, we get to occasionally collaborate with our colleagues’ editors, which is always a fascinating experience. Now many of us, including those with whom we are working closely, have their own preferred editing software. Some love the speed of editing, others love the stability of the editing software, many don’t like to pay a monthly subscription fee (next week’s poll topic), and the rest don’t really care – just give them the freedom to be creative and they will perform on whatever platform they have to edit on.

But what about you? We are truly very curious to know what your current editing software is. For the options below, we chose the current leading editing platforms. And yes, we are aware of other market alternatives, for example, Wondershare Filmora, Pinnacle Studio, Movavi, Corel, Apple iMovie, and CyberLink Power Director. If you are using any of these, please feel free to mention it in the comment sections below.

Last but not least, if you feel like letting us know WHY you use the editing software you just voted for, that would be great! We are truly excited to learn more about our audience’s preferences.
