HitFilm Express 13: create professional caliber gaming videos

FXhome announced its Masterclass “Game On,” a series of Fortnite-themed tutorials designed to inspire gamers and the YouTube gaming community to create professional caliber gaming videos.

With the tools available today, many gamers have also become video editors, producing their own content, streaming, and doing many other things that were not viable a few years ago. In fact, many video editors are also gamers, making the barriers between creating content in real life and from the universe of games vanish, as technology mixes the two worlds.

As someone that plays games myself, I am aware of how gamers have interest in video editors that allow them to make the best of the content they want to share. I’ve seen discussions online about the merits of different video editors, and how appealing the FREE video editors available are for many of those creators.

It makes complete sense, because the barriers between worlds are gone, that a company as FXhome accompanies the launch of its new FREE video editor and special effects toolbox, HitFilm Express, with a “Game On Master Class” Series of Fortnite-themed tutorials for creating gameplay videos. These tutorials, based on a very popular game that uses the Unreal Engine, are designed to inspire gamers and the YouTube gaming community to create professional caliber gaming videos.
