Lightworks

Lightworks is a non-linear editing program that EditShare has developed. Because of its high level of sophistication and ability to process formats ranging from 4K to SD to HD, it has been recognized with a number of accolades. 

Lightworks has four distinct workspaces, including Log, Edit, VFX, and Audio. Although each workspace is customized for a certain process, users are free to resize the different portions to their liking. Dragging clips from a place on the hard drive into the Lightworks window can import them from the Log workspace more quickly than by searching through available clips via the interface. Lightworks’ editing mechanism is complex, so users will need to put in some time learning the ropes first. 

Lightworks is available for Linux, Mac and Windows. Lightworks offers a free, perpetual license that may be activated by any user within seven days of installation, as well as a Pro license that can be acquired by the month, the year, or the right. The free version of Lightworks is a great option if you want to make videos for YouTube. Get the premium version if you want to make videos with professional production values and editing. In spite of its steep learning curve, its power and adaptability make it well worth the effort.
