How To Get FREE Video Editing Templates

In this article, we will explore how to make video editing easy by using templates that can be reused and customized to fit your brand. This approach will not only speed up the editing process but also ensure that your videos have a consistent and appealing look for your audience. Read on to learn how to access and use these templates.

Accessing Free Video Editing Templates

To start, navigate to vd.new in your browser or click on the first link in the video description. This will open a new project in the Vid online editor. Here, you can find a dedicated section for templates, encompassing hundreds of styles and layouts. Whether you need 9x16 shorts for announcing a new job position, or motion graphic intros for conferences and podcasts, there is a plethora of options to explore. It's worthwhile to take some time to scroll through the templates and find what suits your needs.

Using Templates for Your Projects

For this example, we'll use a template for a new Instagram ad announcing a new course. After selecting the template, it will appear on your timeline with all its various elements. You can customize these by changing their color, size, and position, or even removing them altogether if necessary. In the template we're using, there's some stock footage included, which we'll replace with our own video. To do this:

Click on the video within the template.
At the top of the interface, you'll see an option to "replace video." Click on it.
Choose from your own files or select new stock footage.

If you need to upload additional footage, this can be done via the media tab.

Customizing to Fit Your Brand

After replacing the default video with your own, the template will start to look more aligned with your brand. You can further edit the template to suit your unique style. Common customizations include adjusting the color palette and tweaking the video content. An interesting feature you might want to use is the audio waveform, which automatically syncs with the music or voice in your video. You can find various audio waveform options in the elements tab.

For a comprehensive guide on using audio waveforms and other similar features, you can watch a dedicated video by clicking on the provided link.

Once you're satisfied with your edits, it's time to export and share the video. In the export options, select your desired resolution. Since we used a video template, the HD preset is a good choice. Click the export button and wait for it to render. Now, the video is ready for download, social media sharing, or embedding into your website.
