Ease of Use

Installation was done through the Serif website, which is quick and straightforward to do. It took us around 10 minutes including downloading the files to our computer with a feeble broadband connection.

The opening screen of Serif Movieplus X6 utilises a pop up window giving multiple options such as starting a new project, opening an existing project or if you're new to it, you can view some tutorials. There are also some pre-made projects to open and see how they're done, such as stop motion and tilt-shift.

Starting a new project opens the main window for use. The video that you use will be displayed in a small preview window in the top left of the screen. Above the preview window are all the tabs for opening files, inserting media, arranging and exporting etc.
