Review by Fred Woodbridge

I have been a Corel VideoStudio user for quite a while, and this latest entry into the ring does not bring a massive set of differences other than that I have noticed it runs much better in Windows 8 and, after the free upgrade, Windows 10. The list of features is long enough that you will HAVE to take some time to read manuals (available only as a PDF) and view some rather good YouTube tutorials.nThere are enough features that the enthusiast will not be too overwhelmed, and the templates help a lot. Tweaking the feature set to get a particular effect is possible to your heart’s content, but let’s not go overboard here: this is meant to be occupy a position between the very basic software and the more advanced, like Sony’s Movie Studio Platinum (I think this was named Vegas). To get good, you will need to do some work, and the price point and feature list of VideoStudio Pro 8 is just right for that.n5 stars.
