So, you’ve got Wink Video Editor installed, and now you’re ready to start creating magic. But first, you need to know how to import your videos and, of course, export them when you’re done. Don’t worry, I’ve got you covered, and it’s not as complicated as it sounds!

Think of importing as inviting your video into a cozy editing space, and exporting? Well, that’s sending it out into the world to shine. Let’s break it down step by step without any confusing tech jargon.

Step 1: Importing a Video in Wink

Alright, let’s start with importing your video. This is the fun part where you bring your raw footage into Wink for editing.

  1. Open the Wink Video Editor – Yes, it’s pretty obvious, but you know, just in case.
  2. Click on the ‘Import’ Button – Usually located on the main dashboard or in the ‘File’ section. It’s like opening a door to let your video inside.
  3. Choose Your Video – Select the video file from your computer or device. Wink supports most of the popular formats, so don’t worry about that weird .mp4 or .mov file.
  4. Drag and Drop (Optional) – If you’re like me and love shortcuts, you can also just drag and drop the video directly into the workspace. Easy peasy!

Once your video is imported, you’ll see it on the timeline, ready for some creative action. You can now chop it up, add effects, or do whatever you want to make it TikTok-worthy.

Step 2: Exporting Your Masterpiece

After spending hours (or minutes, depending on your creative genius) editing your video, it’s time to export. This is where you transform your project into a finished video file that you can share with the world.

  1. Head to the ‘Export’ Option – This is usually found in the top-right corner of Wink or under the ‘File’ menu. Wink will guide you through the process, so don’t worry about getting lost.
  2. Select the Format – Choose the format you need. If you’re exporting for social media, go for .mp4. It’s versatile and works everywhere. If it’s for professional purposes, maybe you want a higher-quality format.
  3. Adjust the Resolution and Quality – Wink lets you pick the resolution (480p, 720p, 1080p, etc.) and the quality (low, medium, high). Choose what works best depending on your needs. Higher quality means a bigger file size, though!
  4. Choose the Export Destination – This is where you tell Wink where to save the file on your computer. Pick a folder that’s easy to find (because trust me, you don’t want to spend 10 minutes searching for that exported file later).
  5. Click Export – And voilà! Your video will render and save. Grab a coffee or snack if it’s a large file—it may take a bit, but soon enough, your creation will be ready to share.
