During the Christmas holidays, during the holidays, on a special evening and on every occasion where you take several photos to remember, you can easily create a video by mounting the various photographs one behind the other, with transition effects and maybe even a soundtrack.
This editing activity is now really simple to do both on the PC and on the smartphone, using free programs that do almost everything by themselves.
We have seen, for example, how convenient the Photos app is on Windows 10 to create videos, while on Android smartphones and iPhones it is possible to use the automatic functions of Google Photos, which does it all by itself.
Staying on the "mobile" theme, there is also an application that stands out above all, GoPro Quik, which is not only automatic and simple to use, but is capable of transforming photos into a high quality video, which seems to be made with professional software, to which you can also add music, text and various effects .
Quik is a free app for Android and iPhone, without advertising, without limitations and without requesting an account to register.
Once Quik is installed, just open it on your mobile phone and choose the photos to be transformed into a movie among those present in the various image galleries.
In the photo selection you can also browse all those saved in Google Photos, if it is used for online backups.
The same can be done if you are using the GoPro Plus cloud service.
In addition to the photos, the videos can also be selected, with Quik who will extract the parts that according to him are the most relevant to mount them in the new movie.
After choosing photos and videos to insert in the movie, you can write an introduction title, which will appear as a writing at the beginning of the clip.
Quik will then immediately show the new automatically generated movie, with the possibility of editing it in different ways.
First of all, by touching the pencil, it is possible, for each image and video added, to make corrections and additions .
It is therefore possible to include other photos before or after using the ++ keys on the right and left, then add other writings (in addition to the initial one), rotate upside down photos, focus them, choose the time in which a particular photo must be visible in the final movie, remove or duplicate to let them learn multiple times.
Once out of the edit mode, you can choose the video theme from those available, to give it a more modern, more romantic, more successful, more colorful, black and white or with different transaction effects.
This allows you to make the movie truly special, as if it were made by the expert hands of a professional.
By touching the icon of the musical note, it is possible to change the background song by choosing from those included in the application which are differentiated according to the genre: Love, Night, Cinema, Open Air, Sport, Travel, Summer and others.
If you prefer, you can use a music saved in the phone, then any song from the music collection, or you can remove the music or just remove the audio.
Finally, by touching the sliders icon you can choose the duration of the final video, the display mode between portrait, cinema and square, the time to start the music, the application of image filters similar to those of Instagram, choose the font of the writing, choose the color range of the video and use an effect that is called Outro, very scenographic.
In the end, the video can be shared via a link (only those with the link will be able to see it), sent as a file, shared in an Instagram story or you can simply save it in the smartphone's memory to keep it .
All these functions are free, therefore without tricks and deceptions, without advertising, without having to register an account, without being limited in downloading the movie.
For all these reasons we could safely put Quik in the first place among the best apps to create videos, ideal for transforming photos and albums into beautiful videos to watch without complications and in the simplest possible way, generating new movies and clips to share and, above all, to keep.
