WebCut

Use an Example Project

Start from Scratch

WebCut is a browser-based video editor that lets you animate text and images. The animations are done with key-frames (denoted in blue on the Timeline) and linear interpolation.

The design is meant for simple and quick projects, and not for full professional use.

Usage

  • Press space to pause or play the preview.
  • Select layers to manipulate them (click on the Timeline or sidebar).
    • Pinch the screen or trackpad or use shift + scroll to enlarge or shrink text and images.
    • Drag to move text and images.
    • Use the arrow keys to jump between keypoints
    • backspace to remove keypoints.
  • Importing
    • Drag-n-drop to import videos, images, or audio files.
    • Click the "Media..." button to add videos, images, or audio files.
    • Paste URLs to hosted media (only some domains)
  • Exporting
    • Click the "Export" button.
    • Let the video preview play fully.
    • Click "Download" to save the .webm video.
