My Experience with Jumpcut

Jumpcut is an web-based video editing site, I used it for the first time to edit the Jackson video in my last post. I decided to use it since the video files taken on my phone (mp4) weren't readable by windows movie maker or premiere which was odd, and I didn't want to bother converting them.

The process of editing was pretty slick, about on par with windows movie maker which is saying something seeing that it is web based. The downside was that I couldn't download the finished product, as I had wanted to host it on You Tube with the rest of my videos. Also, the published video points to the "session" instead of a rendered video, and I've noticed the edits are slightly different every time I watch it, sometimes very different... interesting. I guess they do that so I can edit it at any time and the changes are seen instantly; that would be cool if it actually worked right, and I've been told it takes a while to load as well.

Although I thought it was a really cool concept, I probably won't use Jumpcut again until they at least let me download the videos I edit.
