Movie Studio 13 has no ingest transcoder, nor timeline rendering. The bottom line? Movie Studio 13 is … easy. There was no discernable way to set this output from within Movie Studio 13, though this feature may be available in the Platinum version. We used a Blackmagic Decklink HD card (a very industry-standard output card) in the computer we tested the software on. In addition to the lack of a preview window, there is no way to set an external video preview. This feature alone might be worth the upgrade to Movie Studio Platinum 13 ($30 more) which does have a trimmer window that allows setting in and out points before placing a clip on the timeline. A very big deal if you have long clips in which the camera is continually rolling, such as the Phantom 2 footage we used to try it out. Not that big of a deal if you have short clips. There is no proper preview window in Movie Studio 13, which means you must place the whole clip in your timeline, and then trim it down to where it should be. Very easy, making it perfect for a beginner to learn editing, a hobbyist to put together basic stories, or a YouTuber to set up their channel.

And effects are a simple matter of drag and drop with a very simple slider-based interface for setting up exactly how you want the effect to look. Hovering over each transition in the bin shows you a preview of what to expect before transitions are placed. Effects and transitions are also really easy to pick up.

Audio mixing is easy with the track sliders embedded into the left side of the audio tracks. The video tracks offer filmstrip-style views of your clips, making navigation in your timeline very easy. The timeline (as with everything else in the software) is easy to navigate, and offers separate tracks for music and normal audio. There's even a "Show Me How" button on the top menu bar which walks you through a basic project showing you everything you need to know to start editing in about 15 minutes.Ĭlose up of the “Show Me How” interactive guide.If you've already done some editing in the past, the "Show Me How" button also shows you around the interface so you can quickly and easily see where all of the controls are for you to jump into editing. A program window, timeline, and bin to choose your footage, effects, and transitions. At first glance, you can see everything, right where it should be.
