Part4: Motion Blur Effect in Filmmaking

Motion Blur is one of the essential effects to add when you are making a movie. It exaggerates the motion in a perfect way which is necessary for most action movies. This blur effect is usually the result of something moving quicker than the camera. The more significant the speed difference between the camera filming and the moving object, the more pronounced motion blur will be.

In the majority of the cases, it is best to apply motion blur on background objects than the subjects. For example, motion blur is perfect for the shots in which the camera moves at the same speed as the subject. Although, if the subject is moving faster than the camera, you would want a minimal blur.

Technically speaking, more excellent motion blur can be obtained through a lower shutter speed or vice versa. Ensure that your shutter speed is always twice your framerate because anything lower can result in unnatural-looking footage. The famous bike chase of Star Wars Episode VI is a perfect example of the productive application of motion blur. The scene was captured by walking in the forest and shooting a single frame per time.

Conclusion

Most of the videos need a significant amount of blur to make them look realistic. FCPX is excellent editing software, but it does not have blurring effects. However, there’s a way to add blur effect in FCPX, but many people are unaware of it.

To tackle this problem, we came up with different plugins for Motion Blur and its effects in filmmaking. So, now you have in-depth knowledge of how you can add blur effects in FCPX.

Although, if the subject is moving faster than the camera, you would want a minimal blur.

Technically speaking, more excellent motion blur can be obtained through a lower shutter speed or vice versa. Ensure that your shutter speed is always twice your framerate because anything lower can result in unnatural-looking footage. The famous bike chase of Star Wars Episode VI is a perfect example of the productive application of motion blur. The scene was captured by walking in the forest and shooting a single frame per time.

Conclusion

You may see people sometimes use a lot of hash tags but in the case of Twitter, less hash tags can do the most effective work. The only thing to keep in mind is that they should be completely relevant to the topic and content.

Simple and short - In today’s world, as all the people are so busy in their works and daily schedules they can easily get distracted by the things.

You should keep the first few moments of your video so engaging and interesting so that the viewer can stick back till the end. This is very important to leave a positive impact of your brand on your audience and targeted users.

Captions - Adding captions is another amazing way to increase the reach and boost engagement on your videos.

So you will need to have a strategy so that you can keep the viewer engaged. This is the reason why captions are necessary. Also the captions that you are adding on your video must be of high quality and must catch the attention of your audience.

Add the logo: Twitter also suggests its users to add their logo in the frame of their videos. By logo, people can easily recognize your brand and they will also know about you via that logo. They will also be able to contact you further. The only worth considering thing is that the logo which you are adding must be engaging and eye-catching.

Use the correct tools - Using the correct tools cannot be neglected. If the tools that you are using will not be appropriate then they can lessen the quality of your videos.

GoPro Quik Windows Features

GoPro Quik app is rich with features, and it provides pretty much everything that you need to create amazing photos and videos. A few highlighting features are discussed below:

1.Create Amazing Videos In Just A Few Clicks

With GoPro Quik, making amazing videos is very easy. With just a few clicks, you can import all your videos and photos. Then you can edit them in just a few clicks. Everything here is so simple that you will feel like a pro video editor yourself.

2.Auto Cloud Uploads

Another amazing feature of GoPro Quik is that once you have done editing your videos, they will be automatically uploaded to your cloud. But for this feature to work, make sure that you have an active GoPro PLUS subscription.

3.Excellent editing

Simply click a few buttons to turn GoPro footage into an awesome video. Pick the perfect soundtrack, then pick your favorite moments. Your video automatically syncs with the music, so you can share it in just a few seconds. Make your videos come alive with panning effects by adding photos and time-lapse sequences.

4.Share with friends

Make short videos that are ideal for posting on Facebook, YouTube, and more. Make a unique video from your burst and timelapse photos. Additionally, you can find and save the most memorable moments in a video, then share them as high-quality still images.

5.New Speed Tool

Tap the pencil to choose the Speed icon for the video in your Media Mural. Then you can apply more than one-speed effect simultaneously. The speed can be toggled between real-time and half-speed slow motion. You can also add freeze frames for a specified period of time.

6.GoPro-Exclusive filters

From Media or Mural, select a photo or video and tap the pencil. In order to optimize the footage to the environment it was shot in, GoPro has created 25 filters in-house. By using the scrub bar, you can adjust the intensity of each filter.

7.Premium Themes

Alternatively, you may create a new highlight from Media. You will be presented with 13 video editing themes. Besides adding text and transitions, you can also change the music, choose the duration, and choose the right format for your intended sharing platform, such as social media or text.

Pros

Despite its ease and quickness, there are a few drawbacks to it. First, I must say this is awesome and perfect for anyone who has never edited a GoPro video before. When you’re new to video editing software, it can be very easy to become frustrated and overwhelmed, so it’s great for those who aren’t familiar with it. It’s all about getting that video off your memory card and putting it out there. That’s it.

Cons

You cannot edit footage from your phone or DSLR with Quik App for Desktop - only GoPro footage can be used in Quik App. This is a GoPro app, after all. It should be used with GoPro content!

In addition to the ten free songs, GoPro Plus members have access to an additional song library. Users cannot import their own music either.

Additionally, you may only create a certain number of Highlights. Each 30-second video is limited to 10 Highlights.

Final Verdict

Although GoPro Quik is amazing and comes with a lot of features, there are still many limitations of this application, as discussed in the cons section of this article. If you want to do basic editing, then this app will do just good, but if you are looking for advanced features like audio normalization, keyframing, color tuning, gif support, etc., then you will have to use another fully-fledged video editing app. We recommend you to give a try to our Filmora video editor.

Filmora comes with plenty of features and can easily compete with the most advanced video editors in the world. The best thing is, you can download and install it for free and try all of its features without paying a penny. Also, there is an amazing community and Filmora support that you won’t find anywhere else.

Part 1 6 Best Free MP3 Converter for Windows 10 / 11

As promised, we start this off with the best audio converter (Windows 10/11) tools. We’ve decided to go very simple with this list, providing a brief description of all of the FREE MP3 Converters (Windows), a URL that will lead you to the website where you can get the converter, and an image that should show you how the converter’s interface looks like.

01EaseUs MobiMover

EaseUs MobiMover is an audio converter for Windows 10 and 11 that you can use in order to easily convert videos (in various formats) into MP3 (as is shown in the image below. It’s a FREEmium software though — which means that it’s use is limited until you purchase the paid version of the software.

02Freemake Video Converter

Freemake Video Converter is the first 100% FREE MP3 converter for Windows 10 on this list! They keep the software updated from donations, so you can choose how much money you can spare for using the service! It’s a very simple software besides (as is shown in the image below). It does feature some video editing tools, but its main function is conversion (which includes video-to-audio conversion!)

03VSDC

Much like Freemake, our next MP3 converter for Windows 10 and 11, called VSDC, is completely FREE — as they run primarily on donations. That does mean that it’s not the most advanced program though — evident from the rather old-school interface (shown in the image below). But, regardless of the lack of abundance in tools, it should function just fine as an audio-video-converter for Windows 10 (and vice versa.)

04Convertio.co

With Convertio.co, we break the mold a bit! This is not a software, but it does still work for Windows users — as it requires only that you have a working browser from which you can access the website (URL linked below!) As you can see from the image, it works much like most online MP3 converters — you upload a file from your desktop, wait for it to finish converting, and then download it!

05Free Convert

Free Convert is another online MP3 convert for Windows 10 users that would prefer not to download or install software. And, just like Covertio, it works by uploading the files you want to convert from your computer, waiting for the converters tool to finish converting it, and then downloading the finished product. It is, of course, FREE — but, similar to the first tool on this list, if you want to unlock some of its features, you’ll have to pay for the premium version.

06DVDVideoSoft

With DVDVideoSoft, we’re back to an audio-video converter for Windows 10 that you have to download and install to work! It’s a FREEmium software too. That means that you’ll have to pay in order to unlock certain features. But, it works as a solid converter even without that.

Part 3 5 MP3 Music Players for Windows 10/11 PC

The last of the lists in this article is a short one for the best MP3 players for Windows 10! This is a straightforward list, much like the first. And, we’ll be focusing on MP3 players for Windows 10 only (although some of these will work for Mac as well!)

01iTunes

Despite appearances, iTunes actually makes for a great MP3 player for Windows 10 users. After all, it’s interface is clean and it is regularly updated. So, you never have to deal with bugs! (And just in case you weren’t aware, you can add your own original audio to your iTunes library! So, it isn’t like you have to purchase media from the iTunes store just to listen to it.)

02Groove Music

03Macgo Media Player

Our next pick, Macgo, is not strictly an MP3 player for Windows 10, but it can work for that purpose if that’s all you need it for.

04PowerDVD

Again, our next pick is more of a general media player than strictly a MP3 Player for Windows 10 users, but it works just as well if all you’re looking for is to occasionally play the audio that you’ve converted or trimmed!

05Musicbee

We’re back to strictly MP3 players for Windows with Musicbee! The best part of this app is, undoubtedly, the fact that it has several view options.

Part 4 How to Trim Mp3 on Windows 10 Easily

For this next part, we’re going to go over how you might go about trimming your converted audio with an MP3 cutter for Windows. (Note, a lot of the audio editors that we introduced in Part 2 of this article should be capable of this! And, they all work in much the same way.)

01Step 1: Launch MP3 Cutter for Windows 10! Start!

First, launch the MP3 cutter for Windows 10 that you downloaded.

For this example, we’ll be using Joyoshare Media Cutter. And, the way to start is to select the “Open” button, which will prompt you to choose which audio you want to cut.

02Step 2: Choose Output Option

Next, select the output format that you want your audio to be exported in. (Most MP3 cutters for Windows 10 offers a variety for you to choose from).

04Step 4: Use Encoder Trimmer

If you want a cleaner trim, you click the “Edit” icon beside the audio that you want to trim until you are moved to the encoder window (shown in the image below). This will allow you to pinpoint the best place to cut your audio!

05Step 5: Save Your Audio!

Once you’re done trimming, remember to save!

With Joyoshare, the method of doing this is to select the “Start” button, which will prompt the trimmer to begin cutting the audio.

Part 1 6 Best Free MP3 Converter for Windows 10 / 11

As promised, we start this off with the best audio converter (Windows 10/11) tools. We’ve decided to go very simple with this list, providing a brief description of all of the FREE MP3 Converters (Windows), a URL that will lead you to the website where you can get the converter, and an image that should show you how the converter’s interface looks like.

01EaseUs MobiMover

EaseUs MobiMover is an audio converter for Windows 10 and 11 that you can use in order to easily convert videos (in various formats) into MP3 (as is shown in the image below. It’s a FREEmium software though — which means that it’s use is limited until you purchase the paid version of the software.

They keep the software updated from donations, so you can choose how much money you can spare for using the service! It’s a very simple software besides (as is shown in the image below). It does feature some video editing tools, but its main function is conversion (which includes video-to-audio conversion!)

03VSDC

Much like Freemake, our next MP3 converter for Windows 10 and 11, called VSDC, is completely FREE — as they run primarily on donations. That does mean that it’s not the most advanced program though — evident from the rather old-school interface (shown in the image below). But, regardless of the lack of abundance in tools, it should function just fine as an audio-video-converter for Windows 10 (and vice versa.)

04Convertio.co

With Convertio.co, we break the mold a bit! This is not a software, but it does still work for Windows users — as it requires only that you have a working browser from which you can access the website (URL linked below!) As you can see from the image, it works much like most online MP3 converters — you upload a file from your desktop, wait for it to finish converting, and then download it!

05Free Convert

Free Convert is another online MP3 convert for Windows 10 users that would prefer not to download or install software. And, just like Covertio, it works by uploading the files you want to convert from your computer, waiting for the converters tool to finish converting it, and then downloading the finished product.

Part 1 6 Best Free MP3 Converter for Windows 10 / 11

As promised, we start this off with the best audio converter (Windows 10/11) tools. We’ve decided to go very simple with this list, providing a brief description of all of the FREE MP3 Converters (Windows), a URL that will lead you to the website where you can get the converter, and an image that should show you how the converter’s interface looks like.

01EaseUs MobiMover

EaseUs MobiMover is an audio converter for Windows 10 and 11 that you can use in order to easily convert videos (in various formats) into MP3 (as is shown in the image below. It’s a FREEmium software though — which means that it’s use is limited until you purchase the paid version of the software.

02Freemake Video Converter

Freemake Video Converter is the first 100% FREE MP3 converter for Windows 10 on this list! They keep the software updated from donations, so you can choose how much money you can spare for using the service! It’s a very simple software besides (as is shown in the image below). It does feature some video editing tools, but its main function is conversion (which includes video-to-audio conversion!)

03VSDC

Much like Freemake, our next MP3 converter for Windows 10 and 11, called VSDC, is completely FREE — as they run primarily on donations. That does mean that it’s not the most advanced program though — evident from the rather old-school interface (shown in the image below). But, regardless of the lack of abundance in tools, it should function just fine as an audio-video-converter for Windows 10 (and vice versa.)

04Convertio.co

With Convertio.co, we break the mold a bit! This is not a software, but it does still work for Windows users — as it requires only that you have a working browser from which you can access the website (URL linked below!) As you can see from the image, it works much like most online MP3 converters — you upload a file from your desktop, wait for it to finish converting, and then download it!

05Free Convert

Free Convert is another online MP3 convert for Windows 10 users that would prefer not to download or install software. And, just like Covertio, it works by uploading the files you want to convert from your computer, waiting for the converters tool to finish converting it, and then downloading the finished product. It is, of course, FREE — but, similar to the first tool on this list, if you want to unlock some of its features, you’ll have to pay for the premium version.

06DVDVideoSoft

With DVDVideoSoft, we’re back to an audio-video converter for Windows 10 that you have to download and install to work! It’s a FREEmium software too. That means that you’ll have to pay in order to unlock certain features. But, it works as a solid converter even without that.

Part 2 6 Best Free and Paid Audio Editor for PC and Mac

For this next section, we turn our attention to a couple of MP3 editors (Windows 10 and Mac compatible.) This list will be a little more detailed than the first, since there are many differences between the tools that we’ll be introducing (both FREE and PAID), but it should give you a clear idea on which would work best for you.

Audacity is an MP3 editor (Windows 10, Max, and Linux compatible!)

Part 3 5 MP3 Music Players for Windows 10/11 PC

The last of the lists in this article is a short one for the best MP3 players for Windows 10! This is a straightforward list, much like the first. And, we’ll be focusing on MP3 players for Windows 10 only (although some of these will work for Mac as well!)

01iTunes

Despite appearances, iTunes actually makes for a great MP3 player for Windows 10 users. After all, it’s interface is clean and it is regularly updated. So, you never have to deal with bugs! (And just in case you weren’t aware, you can add your own original audio to your iTunes library! So, it isn’t like you have to purchase media from the iTunes store just to listen to it.)

02Groove Music

Groove Music is a local Mp3 player for Windows 10 that you can download from the Microsoft App Store. It functions much like iTunes — in that you can add original music or audio to the app library (as well as purchase audio from the store — if that’s what you want.)

03Macgo Media Player

Our next pick, Macgo, is not strictly an MP3 player for Windows 10, but it can work for that purpose if that’s all you need it for. As a media player though, it does function as a video player as well. And, like our previous picks, it’s FREE so you don’t have to worry about paying in order to use it.

04PowerDVD

Again, our next pick is more of a general media player than strictly a MP3 Player for Windows 10 users, but it works just as well if all you’re looking for is to occasionally play the audio that you’ve converted or trimmed!

05Musicbee

We’re back to strictly MP3 players for Windows with Musicbee! The best part of this app is, undoubtedly, the fact that it has several view options. So, if you want, you have your audio playing from a mini audio player (rather than the full interface — as is shown below). It’s also useful for organizing your media collection!

Part 4 How to Trim Mp3 on Windows 10 Easily

For this next part, we’re going to go over how you might go about trimming your converted audio with an MP3 cutter for Windows. (Note, a lot of the audio editors that we introduced in Part 2 of this article should be capable of this! And, they all work in much the same way.)

01Step 1: Launch MP3 Cutter for Windows 10! Start!

First, launch the MP3 cutter for Windows 10 that you downloaded.

For this example, we’ll be using Joyoshare Media Cutter. And, the way to start is to select the “Open” button, which will prompt you to choose which audio you want to cut.
