Trim, resize, and crop videos using Quick Actions

“

- [Speaker] In this movie, you will discover the easiest way to edit your videos using Adobe Express Quick Actions. These tools allow you an extremely quick way to make changes in one step and on the go, so no need to open your fancy video editor apps and even better if you never owned one or you never opened a video app before, because these quick actions are truly perfect for you. Let's start with Trim video. As the name says, this tool will allow you to edit the length of your video in one step. The tool itself is very intuitive, allowing you access to complete video beginners. To start, upload or drop a video, and then you have the option of dragging the beginning of or the end of the timeline to change its duration. You can also dial in the desired length inside the start or end time fields and Adobe Express will trim automatically to the digits you have inputted and let me share with you a little extra spice. You can also change the size within this panel. Choose between portrait, landscape, or square. Due to the changing aspect ratio, you will also have the option to fill the space with a toggle that will appear or drag in the preview to pan and recenter. And if you wish to do so, you can also remove the audio from your video by toggling the mute option. When your edits are ready, you can download the file to your machine or opening it in the editor where you can have fun creating by adding more elements and even a new soundtrack to your original file. I will breeze through the resize as we already seen this option with images and within the trim panel. The main difference here is that you have access to a ton of sizes. Once you've uploaded your video, you can use the dropdown menu to select a custom size or leverage one of the categories to have access to the most UpToDate standard size per each existing online channel. You can also scale the video, drag in on the preview to pan and recenter it. And if you wish, you can remove the audio by toggling the mute option and you're done, as per every quick action is up to you to download the final output or editing further using the Adobe Express editor. Amazing. I look forward to see you in the next video to discover how to merge images and clip into videos with the Adobe Express Quick Action. I will see you there.
