OpenShot: zero cost video production for Ubuntu

Customers looking to produce video content in-house typically may turn to apps such as Apple's iMovie. For businesses looking to make the switch to Ubuntu, we can wholeheartedly recommend a fantastic alternative: OpenShot. It more than lives up to the claim of being powerful and easy-to-use, and features a terrific selection of high-quality editing and effects tools geared for rapid video production. If you've ever used and loved iMovie on macOS, you'll feel right at home on OpenShot.

Apertura Designs uses OpenShot exclusively to produce online customer training videos (you can see an example here). Unlike Apple's software, OpenShot is freely available anywhere you can install and run Ubuntu—so you don't need to be tied to expensive Apple hardware. Best of all, the next feature-packed release of OpenShot will be available on Ubuntu, Windows, and Apple systems. No licensing costs, and no vendor lock-in.

Folks running Ubuntu wishing to check out OpenShot can do so with a few easy mouse clicks using the Ubuntu Software Centre app store.
