Exporting a Basic Project

 

🚀 Exporting a Basic Project

After editing your video — adding clips, trimming, transitions, text, and effects — the final step is to export (or render) your project.
Exporting means converting your Filmora project (.wfp) into a final video file (like .mp4, .mov, or .avi) that you can share or upload.

🎬 1. What Does Exporting Mean?

Exporting combines all your edits, effects, and media files into a single playable video file.
This file can then be uploaded to YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, or any platform.

⚙️ 2. Steps to Export a Project

Step 1: Click the Export button on the top toolbar or press Ctrl + E.
Step 2: The Export Window will appear with several options:

🧩 3. Choose Export Settings

A. Local (Save to Computer)

  • Select the Local tab.

  • Choose the File Format — commonly MP4 (recommended).

  • Enter a File Name and choose a Save Location (e.g., Desktop, Videos folder).

B. Adjust Video Settings

Click Settings to customize:

  • Resolution:

    • 1920 × 1080 (Full HD) → Best for YouTube

    • 1280 × 720 (HD) → Faster export, smaller size

  • Frame Rate: 25 or 30 FPS (standard)

  • Bitrate: Keep it at “Standard” for normal quality

C. Other Tabs:

  • Device: Export directly for devices like iPhone, Android, etc.

  • YouTube / Vimeo / TikTok: Upload directly after logging in.

  • DVD: For burning videos to a disc.

🕓 4. Start Exporting

Click Export → Filmora will render your video.
You’ll see a progress bar showing the export process.

After export, click Find Target to open the folder containing your final video.

💡 5. Tips for Exporting:

  • Always preview your video before exporting.

  • For social media, choose MP4 format with 1080p resolution.

  • Use low bitrate for smaller file size, high bitrate for best quality.

  • Keep your original media files until the export is done.

✅ Practice Task:

  1. Open your saved project.

  2. Click Export → Local → MP4.

  3. Set resolution to 1080p, frame rate 30 FPS.

  4. Save it on your desktop with the name MyFirstExport.mp4.

Computers are electronic devices that are designed to process, store, and retrieve data. They are used for a wide variety of purposes, from personal computing to complex scientific simulations and industrial automation. A computer consists of various hardware components, including a central processing unit (CPU), memory, storage devices, input/output (I/O) devices such as keyboards, mice, and displays, and various other peripherals. Computers communicate with each other over networks, which are interconnected groups of computers that share resources and information. The internet is a global network that connects millions of computers around the world and enables communication and information sharing on an unprecedented scale. The field of computer science is concerned with the study of computers and computational systems, including their design, development, and application. It encompasses many subfields, including artificial intelligence, computer graphics, databases, programming lang...

Computer Generation

 There are five generations of computer:  First generation– 1946 - 1958  Second generation– 1959 - 1964  Third generation– 1965 - 1970  Fourth generation– 1971 - today  Fifth generation– Today to future The First Generation   The first computers used vacuum tubes for circuitry and magnetic drums for memory, and were often enormous, taking up entire rooms.  They were very expensive to operate and in addition to using a great deal of electricity, generated a lot of heat, which was often the cause of malfunctions. The Second Generation   Transistors replaced vacuum tubes and ushered in the second generation of computers.  One transistor replaced the equivalent of 40 vacuum tubes.    Allowing computers to become smaller, faster, cheaper, more energy-efficient and more reliable.  Still generated a great deal of heat that can damage the computer. The Third Generation  The development of the integrated circuit was ...
