 Hell yeah, what's up guys, it's Chris Pike. My friends call me Bigsy. I'm back in action today. We're looking at HitFilm Express. In particular, I'm gonna show you how to download and install and set up what I believe is the best free video editing software on the internet. Guys, this is free software. It's ready to go. It's easy to set up. It's a beautiful thing. How do we do it? Let's start. First step here, you're gonna see that I'm on FXHome.com. This is your first step. Go to this website. Next, go to Products, hover over it, and you're gonna see HitFilm Express as one of the four options. Let's go to HitFilm Express. Bingo. Here we go. Free video editing software and visual effects software download. Exactly what we want. Go over now to Download. Free left click on it. And you're gonna see some options and here's where it gets a little tricky. You're gonna see this slider. And it's not apparent, that it's not 100% obvious that it's a slider. But it is. All right, so this is a slider. And remember when I said free? Well, it is free. What you wanna do is you just wanna take this slider and move it to the left. Now, I'm not saying don't pay these guys or gals your money and it's not worth it. It is. But again, this series is for video editing for free. In a future video, in our future videos, we'll look at some of the paid features and you can of course make a decision if you want them. But again, this is a free video editor and we're doing a free video editing series. So off we go. Once you do that, left click on download. And now you're gonna enter in your name. So I'm gonna enter in Curtis Pike, blah, blah, blah. Put your email in, put your age. And then once you've got all that stuff, left click on send me the express download. Once you do that, you're going to get an email and I've already opened it here for you. And it's gonna look exactly like this. And it's gonna say download your copy of HitFilm Express. And when you flip through it, you just have to click on get your free, get your express installer. Once you do that, it just takes you through the installation steps. Nice and easy, easy to do. Now, when you load it up for the first time, I'm gonna go left click on here and I'm gonna go load HitFilm Express. So wherever you saved your HitFilm Express, that's where it is. Load from there. When you do it, this is what you're going to see on your initial loadup, not original loadup, initial loadup. And it is a little bit, not scary, but it's a little concerning because you see all these in your face options to buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy. But not to worry. All you gotta do is just left click on new. And then here, you get the new project settings and you get some default stuff. Now, really it doesn't matter what you select here too much. I'm just gonna go ahead and select what they gave me and it gives you a duration of five seconds. Okay, I'm just gonna left click on okay. And this is now going to load up the software. And you're gonna see here a few things. You're gonna see the trimmer here and that's not some sort of lawnmower, manscaper 3.0, that's just called the trimmer guys. You got the viewer, you've got the editor and then of course you've got other workspaces and windows over here, media effects, controls, history, all that stuff, not to worry. We've now got it installed, you've got it open guys. In the next video, I'm gonna show you how to start doing basic edits, importing footage and all that stuff you need to know as a video editor. Thanks for watching this tutorial. I've got a ton more stuff coming up. Stay tuned, be back soon.
