mebm is a browser based video editor that supports animation of images and text overlays. The animation is done with key-frames (denoted in blue on the timeline) and linear interpolation.
The design values simplicity and rudimentary functionality over a full feature set.
- space to pause/play
- select layers to manipulate them (click on the timeline or sidebar)
- shift + scroll or pinch to zoom text and images
- drag to move them
- arrow keys to jump between keypoints
- backspace to remove keypoints
- import
- by dragging in videos images or audio files
- by clicking "+ media"
- by pasting URLs to hosted media (only some domains)
- export by clicking "export"
- let video play to completion
- click "download" to grab a copy (.webm)
