Answered by Phillip Nicastro

Editing and combining videos can be a fun and creative process. There are various software and apps available that allow you to edit and merge videos easily. In this answer, I will explain how to edit and combine videos using the popular video editing app called InShot.

1. Open InShot and tap on the “Video” option. This will allow you to select the videos you want to combine from your device’s gallery. You can select multiple videos by tapping on each one.

2. Once you have selected the videos, they will appear in a timeline at the bottom of the screen. You can rearrange the order of the videos by dragging and dropping them in the desired sequence.

3. To trim each video clip, tap on the video in the timeline. This will open the video editing menu, where you can see the video preview and various editing options. Tap on the “Trim” button to cut out unwanted parts of the video. You can drag the handles on the timeline to select the specific portion you want to keep.

4. If you want to add some creative effects or transitions between the video clips, you can tap on the “Transition” button. InShot provides a range of transition effects to choose from. Select the desired transition and adjust its duration if needed.

5. To add text or stickers to your videos, tap on the respective buttons in the video editing menu. You can choose from a variety of text styles, fonts, and colors to customize your text. Similarly, you can select stickers from the available options or import your own.

6. After making all the necessary edits and adjustments, tap on the “Save” button located in the top-right corner of the screen. This will prompt you to select the video quality you want to save your edited video in. Choose the desired quality option and wait for the app to process and save the video.

In addition to InShot, there are several other video editing software and apps available on different platforms, each with its own set of features and editing capabilities. Exploring and experimenting with these tools can help you unleash your creativity and produce professional-looking videos.

Remember, editing and combining videos is a skill that improves with practice. Don’t be afraid to experiment, try different effects, and explore various editing techniques to create engaging and visually appealing videos.
