Whether you’re looking to add a subtle touch of color correction or want to experiment with more dramatic visual effects, Simplified offers a variety of video filters options to meet your creative needs—all with just a few clicks.
Steps to Add Effects to Your Video:
Log in to Your Simplified Account: Start by logging into your Simplified account using your email or Google login credentials. If you don’t have an account yet, you can easily create one on the Simplified website.
Click on AI Video: Once logged in, navigate to the dashboard and select the "AI Video" option. This will take you to the video editing workspace where you can start creating or editing your video.
Click on New Video: To begin a new project, click on "New Video." This is where you’ll choose the specifics for your video project.
Select Your Video Size: Next, choose the size of your video. Simplified offers various aspect ratios and sizes to suit different platforms and needs, such as landscape, square, or portrait formats.
Upload Your Video: Upload the video you want to edit by clicking the upload button. You can choose a file from your device or select one from your existing media library within Simplified.
Adjust and Edit Your Video: Before adding effects, you can make other adjustments to your video, such as trimming, cropping, or adding text and transitions. This step ensures that your video is polished and ready for final touches.
Click on the Effects Option: Once your initial editing is complete, click on the "Effects" option to start adding special effects to your video. This feature allows you to transform the look and feel of your content.
Choose Between Filters and Blends: In the Effects menu, you’ll see two main options: Filters and Blends.
1. Filters: Fine-Tune Your Video’s Aesthetic: When you click on the Filters option, you’ll be presented with a variety of pre-designed filters.
Beyond simply applying a filter, you have the ability to fine-tune its intensity. Simplified allows you to control key aspects such as:
Blur: Add a soft focus effect to your video, which can be useful for creating a dreamy or out-of-focus background.
Brightness: Adjust the brightness to make your video lighter or darker, ensuring it looks just right for your intended audience.
Contrast: Enhance the contrast to make the colors in your video more vivid and distinct, or reduce it for a more muted, softer look.
HueRotation: Change the overall color tone of your video by rotating the hues, giving you creative control over the color palette.
Saturation: Boost or reduce the saturation to make colors pop or achieve a more desaturated, cinematic style.
Each of these adjustments can be made with simple sliders, allowing you to see the changes in real-time and make precise edits that enhance your video’s visual appeal.
2. Blends: Create Artistic Visual Effects: Blends work by overlaying an effect onto your video and mixing it with the original footage. When you click on Blends, you’ll find several options that offer different visual styles.
After selecting a blend mode, you have the option to adjust its opacity. This controls how strongly the blend effect is applied to your video.
Apply and Preview Effects: After selecting and customizing your effects, preview your video to see how the changes look in real time. You can easily tweak the settings until you’re satisfied with the result.
Export and Download Your Video: Once you're happy with the effects and overall editing, click the "Export" button. Choose your preferred video quality and format, then download your final edited video to your device.
