In DaVinci Resolve you trim by dragging the edge of a clip, and the tool you get depends on where the pointer sits. Resolve chooses between ripple, roll, slip and slide for you, which is why one drag can behave like four.
To add text to video on an iPhone, use iMovie rather than Photos: tap the clip, tap Titles, and type over the sample. Photos has no text tool, which is where most people get stuck. On a laptop, iMovie on a Mac and Clideo in a browser do the same.
The Animoto slideshow maker is a browser tool that turns photos and clips into a video using templates, a licensed music catalog and a storyboard rather than a timeline. It suits marketing videos and quick family slideshows. It is not the cheapest route.
OpenShot crops with an effect rather than a tool. Drag the Crop effect from the Effects tab onto a clip, then set its edges in Properties. A right-click on the clip gives you blue crop handles in the preview instead.
The fastest way to make subtitles for videos is to let a tool transcribe the audio, then correct what it misheard. YouTube does it for anything you upload, and CapCut and Adobe Express do it inside an edit. All of them get names wrong, so budget five minutes for the read-through.
The best songs for graduation slideshow use share three things: a slow build, words about leaving rather than partying, and a clean ending. Twelve that do all three are below, with what each one suits.
Text in OpenShot is a title file, not a text box on a clip. You build it in the Title Editor, save it, then drag it onto a track above the video, where its transparent background lets the picture show through.
To crop video online, open a browser tool, upload the file, drag the crop box over what you want to keep, and export. Clideo and Adobe Express both do it on one screen. Cropping throws pixels away for good, so check whether you need a different frame, not a smaller one.
Photos trims the start and the end of a video on an iPhone and nothing else. Taking a piece out of the middle needs iMovie, which is one more app and about four more taps.
Two commands cover almost every trim in FFmpeg. One copies the streams and finishes in a second but can start on the wrong frame; the other re-encodes and lands where you asked. Which you want depends on whether the cut has to be precise.
