10 free Lightworks NLE video tutorials

Lightworks is a free NLE from Editshare, which, while not as well known as Avid or FCP, has a long cinematic heritage. You need only check out the banner image on www.lwks.com to see how much Hollywood editors still use it to this day.

Soon Lightworks will be ‘open source’ – once Editshare has successfully ported it to linux and Mac OS X, meaning that the fast growing Lightworks community can expect plenty of third party developments, plugins and tools. In the meantime if you’re a PC user – head over to lwks.com and get downloading! If you’re curious as to what it looks like and how it works check out this 10 part video tutorial series by Peter Bridgman. Part 1 is below.
