Vamos falar a verdade: com as câmeras móveis, a maneira como gravamos o vídeo e a forma como assistimos mudou. Pode amar ou odiar, mas vídeos verticais estão em toda parte. Tudo começou com as pessoas segurandos seus telefones verticalmente durante a gravação inconsideradamente. Hoje muitas marcas criam vídeos verticais de propósito porque parecem mais autênticos quando publicados em mídias sociais que são (surpresa!) consumidas usando telefones celulares que são mantidos na vertical na maioria das vezes.

Quem teria esperado isso em 2014, né?

Mas posso consertar um vídeo vertical se não gostar da aparência dele?

Sim você pode. Não precisa seguir as tendências modernas da mídia se não gostar delas. E você certamente não precisa aturar duas barras negras e feias de cada lado da sua filmagem, se você acidentalmente gravar na vertical.

O VSDC Free Video Editor oferece várias maneiras de corrigir vídeos verticais e, abaixo, mostraremos o que eles são.

Um dos hacks mais populares é desfocar os lados de um vídeo vertical. Esta é uma maneira elegante de se livrar das barras pretas.

Correção de vídeo vertical nº 1 - desfocando seus lados

• Adicione sua filmagem à linha do tempo. Para fazer isso, clique em "Adicionar objeto" >> "Vídeo" e selecione o arquivo desejado no explorador.
• Use o botão direito do mouse para clicar no vídeo e selecione "Duplicar".
• Para o novo objeto de vídeo, defina o mesmo tamanho que o vídeo original. Veja a ilustração abaixo.
• Em seguida, vá para a guia "Cortar e dividir" no menu superior e escolha "Corte automático". Ele vai aumentar o tamanho do vídeo duplicado para o tamanho da cena inteira e criar o efeito de um plano de fundo.
• Precisa desfocar seus lados. Para fazer isso, na guia "Efeitos de vídeo", selecione "Filtros" >> "Desfoque Gaussiano". Veja a ilustração abaixo.
• Vá para a janela Propriedades e ajuste o nível de desfoque para obter o resultado desejado. A guia da janela Propriedades pode ser encontrada no lado direito da interface do programa.
• Aproveite o novo visual do seu vídeo vertical! A propósito, você pode usar qualquer outro vídeo ou imagem para o efeito de fundo desfocado se não quiser duplicar o original.

Correção de vídeo vertical nº 2 - criando um projeto com a mesma resolução do vídeo original

Desfocar os lados de um vídeo vertical é a maneira mais popular. Mas também há um método indireto. Pode usar a resolução em que o vídeo é gravado e criar um projeto com os mesmos parâmetros. Tecnicamente, seu vídeo permanecerá em um "formato vertical", mas sem as bordas pretas.

Aqui está como fazer isso:

• Adicione seu vídeo vertical à linha do tempo.
• Vá até a guia Visualizar no menu superior. Abra um explorador de projetos.
• Clique no nome do seu projeto e vá até a janela Propriedades para encontrar os parâmetros de tamanho da cena.
• Reduza a largura da cena (e a altura, se necessário) para o tamanho do seu vídeo original. Veja o tutorial em vídeo abaixo.
• Clique no objeto de vídeo e vá para a janela Propriedades para usar o botão "Definir o mesmo tamanho que o pai tem". Essa ação fará com que o vídeo se encaixe perfeitamente no tamanho da cena.

Agora você tem um vídeo vertical perfeito sem barras pretas nas laterais. Note que uma vez que você o executa, todos os objetos - vídeos e imagens que você adiciona ao projeto - serão ajustados automaticamente para o novo tamanho da cena.

Correção de vídeo vertical nº 3 - girando um vídeo que é carregado horizontalmente

Às vezes nós começamos a gravar um vídeo no modo retrato e, em seguida, giramos o telefone para um modo paisagem enquanto o vídeo ainda está sendo gravado. Ou mesmo o contrário! Como resultado, você pode obter um carregamento vertical de vídeo horizontalmente quando reproduzido.

Você pode consertar isso também. Na verdade, isso vai levar literalmente alguns segundos e alguns cliques:

• Adicione seu vídeo à linha do tempo do editor de vídeo do VSDC.
• Clique em "Girar" na barra de ferramentas acima da cena e visualize o resultado.
• Se o seu vídeo parece ser maior que o tamanho da cena, você pode reduzir manualmente seu tamanho ou ajustar os parâmetros usando a janela Propriedades.

Agora que você sabe como usar o VSDC como um editor de vídeo vertical para desfocar os lados da filmagem ou alterar o tamanho da cena, observe os outros guias para criar um ótimo filme. Temos mais de 200 deles no nosso canal do YouTube. Não esqueça de se inscrever!

Sometimes footage may sound “noisy” simply because there were too many background sounds when you were recording it. Don’t rush to hit the “Delete” button, though. In most cases, you can easily fix it.

In this instruction, we’ll show you how to reduce audio noise from your recording using VSDC Free Video Editor. If you don’t have the tool yet, you can download it from the official page.

VSDC Free Video Editor provides two powerful Audio Denoise filters: Median filter and Audio gate.

Audio gate is one of the most commonly used techniques in audio production post-processing. This filter comes in especially handy when you work with live recordings trying to remove the unwanted sounds between passages, because it is so efficient at recognizing steady noise sources – such as rumble, hiss, and hum – and reducing them to the minimum.

Technically, when you apply Audio gating, you control when and to what degree audio passes through a channel. In other words, you create a gate to filter the sounds in the video.

You may want to apply gating for three reasons:

1. To reduce the unwanted external sounds
2. To reduce some natural channel noise
3. To use Audio gate as a special effect

Here is how it works. Gates are controlled by setting several parameters:

• Threshold. Decibel level in which the gate opens or closes. The higher the threshold, the louder the sound (stronger the signal) must be to open the gate.

  

• Attack. Controls the speed of the gate opening and consider very fast attack time for percussive instruments. Slower times (10 ms or more) for everything else.

  

• Release. The release time is key to a natural sounding audio decay. For noise elimination with an electric guitar, set the parameter much higher.

  

• Reduction. Sets the amount of signal reduction.

  

• Ratio. It determines how much compression is applied. For example, if the ratio is set to 4:1, every 4dB of signal that crosses the threshold will be compressed down to 1dB.

  

• Knee. Determines how the compressor responds once the signal crosses the threshold. A hard knee clamps down right away, while a soft knee causes the compressor to gradually kick in as the signal gets further past the threshold.

  

• Make-up gain. A control that raises the level of the signal, once it has been processed, to the desired level for the next stage of the signal.

  

Now that we’ve walked through the process of applying Audio gate, let’s take a look at how Median filter works.

Median filter helps you eliminate impulse noise in your footage. In a nutshell, this can be ideal for removing unwanted, frequent sharp sounds like clicks and pops.

• FFT block size. FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) is an important measurement method which converts a signal into individual spectral components and thereby provides frequency information about the signal.

  

• Window type. There are several different types of windows used to reduce spectral leakage when performing a Fourier Transform on time data and converting it into the frequency domain.

  

• Overlap mode. The setting determines what percentage of the FFT size block of data points is re-used for the next trace. Overlap processing can be used to provide high resolution in both the frequency and time axis.

  

• Overlap coefficient. High overlap percentages and low FFT block sizes provide the highest time resolution but take longer to process the data file.

  

Hopefully, this was helpful. Even though it may sound (or look) overwhelming, once you start – you’ll see how fast and easy audio noise reduction really is. Now go and try it yourself!

Many videos require voice commentaries. Educational clips, how-tos, game walkthroughs, video blogs - all are typically produced with use of voice over software. There are various solutions to record your voice and add it to the footage. In fact, there are even 3-rd party tools for voice recording and processing audio on a professional level. Those are used in professional audio recording studios, for example. Yet, some video editors also have embedded tools for recording voice commentaries. VSDC Video Editor is one of them.

There are two ways to use VSDC as a voice over software. The first one belongs to the free version of VSDC video editor, and the second - a more advanced way - is available in VSDC Pro version. Below we'll take a close look at both ways, and explain how you can make use of the audio recording feature for your videos.

In both cases you'll need a microphone which is either embedded or connected to your computer. The biggest difference between the two, is the sequence of steps required from a user:

• In VSDC free version, you can create an audio commentary using an embedded Voice Recorder. Once you record an audio piece, you'll be able to add it to you project and apply to the required video fragment.
• In VSDC Pro version, you'll use a Voice Over software feature. That means, the voice recording is carried out along with the video preview in one and the same window. It allows for adding audio comments at required parts of the movie easier and more precisely.

Method #1. How to use VSDC as a free voice over software

• Open the editor, go to the ‘Tool’ tab and select ‘Voice Recorder’

  

• If you need the audio to be recorded in a prticular format, first you should choose it. VSDC voice recorded offers a lot of popular audio formats such as MP3, AAC, WAV and etc.

  

• Second, select the audio device you're going to use for recording.

  

• If necessary, you can check the option to split your recordings by their duration or by size.

  

• To start recording your voice, click the corresponding button.

  

• When your voice comments are ready, go to your project and add the audio files to the timeline - precisely where it needs to be added.

  

Method #2 How to use VSDC Pro as a more advanced voice over software

• Add your video where you want to add your voice.

• Click the ‘More Tool’ button on the panel above the scene and select ‘Voice Over’.

  

• Preview the video and decide where you’d like to add your comments.
• Move the cursor to the moment of the video where the recording is supposed to start.

• Click the ‘Start Recording’ button.

  

• Record your voice using the microphone.

• At the end of recording click ‘Stop recording’.

  

• Click on the ‘Playlist’ button to see the list of recordings.

  

• Close the voice over window.

• Your recording will appear on the timeline automatically.

  

Even though both ways help you get the job done, VSDC Pro version makes a more precise voice over software, saving your time and effort. So, if audio recording is not a one time job, but rather a regular task you 'll have to deal with frequently, you should probably consider it as a more convenient tool.

If you're looking for using voice over software in your video production process, you can also check out our YouTube channel to see how quickly and easily you can utilize VSDC for that purpose.

So, you got a shaky footage, and now you’re looking for the way to fix it? You’re on the right page then. Watch this guide and read the instruction below to see how to quickly stabilize your video using VSDC Video Editor.

Truth be told, most videos shot on the go without special equipment (camera stabilizer mount) come out shaky – just in a varying degree. That happens when you’re holding a camera and your hands start making sporadic movements, or when it’s attached to a drone or a vehicle so that you’re shooting and moving at the same time. Yes, action camera owners, that is especially relevant for you.

Gladly, there is a way to easily remove jittering and achieve a perfectly stable image in the process of post-production. In fact, the Video Stabilization tool is among the most demanded features of VSDC video editing suite. And if you’re curious about how it works, the secret is in the ability to shift video frames. It allows for excluding the shaky effect while any gaps created in the process are being filled with the information from the previous frames.

In our inbox, we often see questions from users on what the best stabilization settings are. So, we decided to address this in a separate tutorial. Below, you’ll see a guide compiled with help one of our dear users who submitted the parameters that worked best for his footage. After being tested, they appeared to be efficient for most shaky videos, so we’re happy to share the secret setup with you.

The parameters used in this tutorial are 'Shakiness' and 'Smooth zoom'. Here is a step-by-step breakdown of the process:

Open VSDC Video Editor and proceed to ‘Tools’. Select ‘Video stabilization’.

Click ‘Open file’ to add the footage you’re willing to stabilize.

Find ‘Shakiness’ among available settings. This parameter detects how shaky a video is and how quickly your camera changes positions and takes control of these movements. Set the Shakiness rate to the maximum using the arrows.

Once you’ve done that, find the ‘Smooth zoom’ dropdown menu in the upper toolbar. This setting allows you for smoothly zooming in the footage.

Select 'Use the smoothed zoom' as shown on the screenshot below.

After performing these actions, you should get a stabilized video, no matter how shaky the original was. So, if there is nothing else you’d like to change in it, just proceed to the ‘Formats’ tab and choose the most appropriate output format. Remember that in VSDC, you can change export profile settings – format, codec, resolution, quality, width, and height - when necessary. If this is the case, click on the “Edit profile” button at the bottom right corner.

Once you’re done, click on the red ‘Export project’ sign.
