Pinnacle Studio

Software Overview

Corel Pinnacle Studio is a consumer-level video editing program available for Windows. Even though Pinnacle Studio is a consumer program, it has many professional capabilities and features that allow even amateurs to create polished-looking videos.

Pinnacle Studio users can "edit like a pro" using the program's standard drag-and-drop editing interface, which lets editors drag media elements from their library into their project's timeline. From there, users can layer and edit audio tracks, videos, and visual effects to create the perfect movie.

The program's basic visual effects and editing tools include (but are not limited to):

• The ability to crop and zoom in on video clips
• The ability to rotate and flip videos
• The ability to add titles, transitions, and other graphic design elements
• Keyframe controls
• Fast- and slow-motion effects
• Stop-motion animation capabilities
• Screen capture and multi-camera editing

Those using the Ultimate edition of Pinnacle Studio also gain access to color grading, 360 video editing, dynamic split-screen video, motion tracking, and audio ducking.

Summary

If you are looking for a decent video editing program for a great price, Corel Pinnacle Studio is an excellent choice. While it doesn't quite hold a candle to professional video editing software, it also doesn't carry nearly as hefty a price tag. Those who want a closer-to-pro editing experience can opt for the program's Ultimate version, which is a little more expensive but includes additional advanced features.
