@VeronicaExplains made a great video that covers kdenlive, too! • I make all my videos using Linux. Here’s how.
all footage incl. pixel animations is mine.
my wallpaper is a painting by Alois Arnegger ‘winter mountain landscape in evening light’.



I tried using other alternatives like OpenShot but KDEnlive seemed much easier to work with. I also use Handbrake to convert videos to different formats when needed.
I find shutter encoder easier than handbrake
Had this experience too. Played around with Shotcut and OpenShot, really wanted them to be better just because the name ‘Kdenlive’ is annoying. But alas, the latter seemed easier to work with.
