Animotica is a simple yet robust video editing tool for Windows 10. You would invariably be using this tool to create your own video clips, slideshows or movies for Instagram or YouTube.

Looks Can Be Deceptive

At first glance, Animotica looks like a basic video editing service with some fancy wrapping. However, once you dig deep, you realize it’s a proper editing tool with a great user interface and multiple video trimming, enhancing, and merging functions that could be applied to both hosted and local videos and photos. Animotica is your tool for complex video editing and production requirements, though it’s primarily marketed targeting home users. The tool certainly has good number of features that could be employed to get clever and creative things done.

Multiple Functions

You can use the tool to trim a video file, add text or stickers, add music, speed up or slow down a video, etc. Thumbnails could be dragged-dropped to reset their order and add more content. Videos can be duplicated so that one copy can be run at normal speed and the other in slow motion. 'Transform' tools come in handy to tilt horizons if you weren’t holding the camera or phone perfectly horizontal. The tools help with special effects as well. Moreover, there is horizontal, vertical and scale offset adjustment. The ‘effects’ functionality offers multiple filters, like the ones in Instagram, and could be applied to photos and videos.
