Video editing is defined as a process by which an editor composes a video from multiple videos, photos, titles and sounds or music.
During video editing, all the audiovisual material, images, animations, and any other image format is collected, and mixed with the sound to finally generate a single video with all the content incorporated.
There are many programs that help in the video editing process thanks to the number and variety of effects they contain.

In this part of the post, we are going to explain the easiest and fastest way on how to split a video. To get started, it is important that you have the Movavi application installed. Movavi is a video editor that allows us to manipulate a video in different ways thanks to the tools it offers.
Step 1: Install the program

To split the video into two parts, first click on the timeline and move the red marker to the point in the video where you want to cut it. You can also locate a specific part of the video by playing it in the preview window. Then click on the scissors icon and the video will be divided into two parts.
To cut an unwanted video fragment, place the red marker at the beginning of the unwanted scene and click on the scissors icon. Then move the red marker to the end of the unwanted segment and split the clip again. Now this segment will be completely separated from the rest of the video and all that remains to be done is to delete it by clicking Delete.
Step 4. Save the edited videos
Click Export and select the format for your video in the tabs on the left side of the pop-up window. You can choose any video format, like AVI, MPG, 3GP, MKV, WMV, MP4, FLV or MOV, and also save your file as HD video. Next, indicate the destination folder in the Save in field and click Start.
