Choosing video tools

Video tools for people making content rather than films: trimming and cutting, format conversion, compression for platform upload limits, screen recording and subtitling.

File size is the constraint most of this work runs into, and resolution and length drive it far more than any quality setting. A shorter clip at sensible dimensions beats a long one compressed hard, both for the upload and for the person watching on mobile data.
