In recent years we have witnessed a boom in online videos, which have since become one of the “favorite” user formats and, in return, from different social platforms.

The benefits of editing videos by yourself?

• Your readers can get to know you better! On images and text, it is not always easy to reveal emotions and how you really are.

• It is easy to make them and with today’s technologies, and it is not necessary to have the most advanced tools, just a computer or even a smartphone.

• Save time! In two minutes of video you can communicate a lot, it’s true maybe at the beginning it won’t be ideal, but it will be real and if it concerns your videos you can identify the elements to improve.

• It doesn’t cost much! Once it was necessary to have professional equipment to make a good video, today it costs much less and is available to everyone.

Magisto: It is equipped with an Artificial Intelligence system that helps optimize our productions. Through editing styles, it is possible to use the theme best suited to the content and mood of our video (real estate introduction, tech review, travel note, etc.), use the suggested music or add our own.
