New Color-Correction Tool for the YouTube Editor

The YouTube Video Editor, which lets you edit your videos directly in the browser, has been around for some time. New color-correction options have now been added.

The existing functions could be used to insert transitions and modify the audio track; image stabilization and 3D functions were added most recently. The Video Editor has now been supplemented with color-correction editing tools, whose options range from setting virtual lights and modifying colors to several filters and small effects.

In addition, YouTube now also offers the possibility of editing already published videos that have not yet reached 1,000 clicks. All logged-in YouTube users can now find the new editing function in their menu. A professional tool looks different, but for beginners it is a nice editing aid.
