Exporting

 If you have followed the previous posts, you should have a good understanding of the basics of LightWorks. In this post, we will cover how to export your project. To begin, right-click anywhere on the timeline, and find the export option.


Then click on the export option, which will open another menu. From here we have several choices. Depending on where you have linked your LightWorks account, you will have access to instant uploads to those websites (TikTok, YouTube, etc.).


In this guide, we will using H.264/MP4, as it's available as part of LightWorks free and doesn't require any other linked accounts. Select MP4.


From here, you will select Frame Rate, Size, and Region, along with the Name and Destination. When all these have been selected, then press the start button and wait for the export. At 720p and 25 FPS, the export won't take long at all.

Audio Editing Basics

 In this post we will be covering editing audio in LightWorks. However, we won't be stepping into LightWork's audio hub, as this hub is quite advanced and not necessary to start editing audio. Again, please don't select audio hub during this guide. (audio hub is circled above). You can interact with audio on the timeline the same way as footage. Automatically, editing footage on the timeline will also apply the same changed to that clip's audio, and vice versa. Use the same click and drag technique to trim both audio and video at the same time. In order to access the audio specific tools, you need to hold down the Shift key. While holding the shift key, white lines will appear accross the audio file, you can drag this line either up or down to alter the volume level of the clip.
