It may not be obvious, but you are able to edit videos directly within Canvas Studio on the platform's standalone video editor. This can be both video content you have recorded on the platform, as well as external media you can upload to it.

Whilst the video editing function is not as extensive as premium software (such as Adobe Premiere Pro, or Final Cut Pro), it does offer some basic video editing tools. These can be useful for a range of basic editing requirements, including:

adding title slides to your screen and webcam recordings
blurring out sensitive information
removing or replacing specific parts of a video
adding music and narration.

An Introduction to canvas Studio will guide you on how to access Canvas Studio video editor. Following that, we will give you an overview of how to complete common tasks and processes, and an introduction to each of the available editing tools within the software.
