Free is not always synonymous for cheap! Blackmagic Design’s DaVinci Resolve latest version 17 combines editing, colour correction, visual effects, motion graphics and audio postproduction all in one software tool that can be downloaded fully functional for free for Mac OS X, Windows and Linux.

The beauty of Resolve is the ease of use, switching between the different functions (audio, video, effects, grading) is as intuitive as working in word: each section opens a different page, all within the same application. Meanwhile the application is as complete and powerful as any high-end editor or sound mixer can imagine, and ready to produce video at a professional level.
