When you think of professional video editing, three applications immediately come to mind:
- Final Cut Pro
- Adobe Premiere
- Da Vinci Resolve
These three software programs undeniably have advanced features, but at the same time they are difficult to use and usually require at least two weeks of training.
At the other end of the spectrum is iMovie, the software developed by Apple that usually comes standard with its iMacs. While he doesn’t have stunning skills, he is unanimously praised for the simplicity of his approach. Of course, those who have tried iMovie on Mac have been looking for an equivalent on PC. And since 2015 there is a special software on the market: Filmora by Wondershare. The ease of use was comparable to that of iMovie, making it a suitable choice for beginners. Gradually, the application has attracted more than 100 million users.
Only Here: Over the releases, Filmora has welcomed more and more sophisticated features. The current Filmora 12 edition offers a particularly extensive range of services, which is often worthy of the three flagship software mentioned above. The icing on the cake: Filmora 12 opens up to artificial intelligence…
Today the new version integrates Enhanced Keyframe, Draw Mask, AI Smart Cutout, AI Audio Stretch, etc.

What are the new features of Filmora 12?
Custom face masks
Photoshop experts know the “clipping” function: We place points on the edges of an object or figure and thus define a border around it. Then in Filmora 12, like in Photoshop, you can remove the background and replace it with another one. However, artificial intelligence is at work under this editing software. If the character moves their arms or legs, they will continue to stand out clearly from the scenery.
Cutting with AI
Another way to isolate an element of a video is to point a brush at the subject. The AI then automatically completes the selection. Here, too, all that remains is to embed another decor – for example an animated video. This gives us a capacity that would normally require filming a person in front of a green screen.
Automatic adjustment of a music sequence
Do you appreciate a certain musical sequence, but unfortunately it is shorter than the clip you are editing? Copy or extend the audio clip and it intelligently adjusts to the length of the video clip – for example, without you feeling a volume drop at the point where you copied/pasted the music.

ChatGPT to the rescue
Filmora 12 integrates artificial intelligence into many services. So we can suppress background noise or improve the voice. But that’s not all. Filmora wants to be consistent with what is called AIGC – Artificial Intelligence Generated Content – which refers to content generated by artificial intelligence algorithms, whether it’s text from ChatGPT or images generated with the software. Help from MidJourney. For those new to editing, Snapshot mode offers the ability to create a clip from the images, videos and music you have loaded, based on one of 115 predefined templates. You can also ask questions to Filmora’s ChatGPT: the creator can find ideas, get a script for a Youtube video or a title. We only have an overview of the AI features: it is also possible to read a text aloud through a synthetic voice or get an intelligent transcription of a video to add subtitles to YouTube.
Extensive library of audio and video effects and sequences
Filmora offers creators an extensive library with no less than 500,000 audio or video sequences, not to mention the effects.
Try Filmora 12
Overall, what is striking about this new version of Filmora is that Filmora 12 has a large number of special effects available for popular software in this area, some with good usability.
As usual, the software is available in a limited version for free in PC, Mac, iPhone and Android environments. Note that Wondershare provides 1GB for free in a secure cloud to store its works and edit them in collective mode.
