Features
Some disadvantagesFrom a user’s perspective, I also found something need to improve.
• Individual limits: time limit (1 min), shot limit (10 shots);
• Videos and photos need to be downloaded before being edited;
• Stability: flash back happens, but the auto repair is great;
• When the reporter is self-shooting, the angle and the position of the face looks a little weird.
Auto repairing
• All in all, Videolicious is a great tool to advance the craft of online and mobile journalism.
• The functions are strong enough for “We Media” and professional journalists.
• And Videolicious makes it really fast and easy to create high-quality stories.
