Video editing is not a quick process, especially if you do not have the necessary skills. Meanwhile, social media users want their videos to be interesting and bright. Fortunately, there are applications in which all this can be done in just a couple of taps. I have compiled a list of applications that can create a video from selected photos. Most of them can also add music to the video.
FotoPlay
This indecently popular app (over 10 million installs) confidently leads the pack. Video, music, effects, stickers – you name it – are harmoniously superimposed on video, turning your favorite photos into a beautiful video.
You can create smooth transitions between photo series using stylish fades and other cool effects. Then you can add music to create the right atmosphere. FotoPlay works with several aspect ratios - whether you took photos vertically or horizontally, everything will turn out in the best possible way.
Platform: Android.
FilmoraGo
The creators of FilmoraGo decided to give the user the same video experience that they would get on a personal computer. The application has a horizontal interface with a preview window in the center, and editing buttons placed around it.
The program is recommended primarily for those who need an extended set of settings. However, with FilmoraGo you can also get a simple short video for uploading to services such as Instagram. There are many preset templates for this - just choose one of them to create a new clip in just a few minutes.
A lot of professional tools will be a good helper: adding voiceover comments, subtitles, transitions, acceleration or deceleration effects, the ability to add texts, filters, animation, etc. In a recent update, a pre-editing music function was added to make video editing more convenient. And there is also an opportunity to create your own watermark, which will be superimposed on the video so that no one can appropriate its authorship.
Adobe Premiere Rush
Adobe not only has the famous photo editor Photoshop, but also its own mobile app for creating funny videos - Premiere Rush, which allows you to quickly create movies based on photos and other media files. You can choose to automatically create a video or use the editor to customize everything manually.
In the first case, the program does everything on its own: the photos will be grouped, music will be added to them. All you have to do is share the result on social networks.
In the second case, the user takes control. Adobe Premiere Rush offers a lot of editing tools: cropping, color grading, and much more. Since this is an Adobe product, you must first register on their website. No paid subscription is required to edit and download videos.
VivaVideo
VivaVideo offers roughly the same features as other apps. But the app tries to stand out with a few tools aimed primarily at millennials. For example: adding emojis, stickers, selfie processing and animated effects.
VivaVideo has a variety of bright and fun themes that are suitable for videos of different genres. Finished videos can be quickly exported to Telegram and other sites directly from your smartphone.
GoPro Quik
Quick recognizes the most interesting moments in the selected files and automatically creates stunning videos. Or you can take control.
There are presets for creating clips - you can use them or choose effects, transitions and other nuances yourself. GoPro Quik has additional tools for editing videos: storyboard management, adding captions, color grading, etc.
The latest update from the developers brought a lot of changes. Now the Quik app supports the new GoPro camera, which can detect faces, voices, jumps and much more. Plus, there are 20 new filters for the beach, indoors, snow, city, water. The photo quality has been improved and 8 new music tracks have been added.
