Video Editor

A timeline-based CE.SDK configuration for composing, trimming, and exporting video content in the browser. It introduces the Timeline UI component alongside the standard canvas surface, allowing users to sequence multiple video clips, add audio tracks, apply text overlays and stickers, insert transitions, and export to MP4, all without a server or native video application.

Like all CE.SDK editors, the Video Editor runs entirely client-side. Video editing mode requires modern web codec support and is currently scoped to Chromium-based browsers and recent versions of Firefox and Safari; see the documentation for current browser requirements.

Multi-Track Timeline

Video clips, audio, text, sticker, and overlay tracks running simultaneously on the timeline.

Clip Trimming & Splitting

Set precise in/out points on each clip, split clips at the playhead, and reorder segments independently.

Transitions

Visual transitions between clips on the background track.

Audio Mixing

Independent volume control per audio track for music, voiceover, and sound effects.

Captions

Import and style caption tracks directly in the editor with time-synced display.

Animation Timing

Animations on any element with timing and duration controlled on the timeline.

Filters & Color Grading

Filters, color grading, and LUT-based transformations applicable per clip or element.

Chroma Key

Green screen compositing on video elements.

Video Placeholders

Placeholder clips on the timeline for template-based workflows where end-users fill in their own footage.

Export

MP4 output at SD, HD, FHD, 2K, and 4K resolutions with configurable frame rate.

AI Features

Generative image tools and image enhancement via CE.SDK plugin integrations. Model-agnostic.

Marketing & Creative Agencies

Use the Advanced variant to build locked video templates with placeholders for footage, logos, and text, then hand those templates to clients or junior team members who fill in content without touching the underlying design.

Social Media & Content Platforms

Embed the Video Editor directly in the product so users create and publish without leaving the app. Stories, reels, and short-form clips with branded intros, captions, and transitions become part of the native experience.

E-Commerce & Retail

Produce product videos at scale (unboxing clips, lifestyle footage, promotional reels) using template workflows to keep visual branding consistent across SKUs and campaigns.

SaaS & Productivity Tools

Integrate video editing as a feature for user-generated content (reviews, tutorials, demos) rather than redirecting users to a third-party tool.

Internal Communications & HR

Offer employees a simple interface for recording and polishing short-form video updates, onboarding content, or training clips, without IT overhead or external software licenses.

Ad Tech & Personalization

Use the template system and text variables to generate video variants at scale: different headlines, CTAs, or product clips per audience segment.

Platform Availability: Web (Vanilla JS/TS, React, Vue, Angular, Svelte, SvelteKit, Next.js, Nuxt.js), iOS, Android, Electron.
