YouTube Video Editor

YouTube Video Editor is the second video editor made by YouTube. It was released in June 15, 2010 as a replacement for YouTube Remixer.
==How it works==
This editor is for users to edit videos. Unlike the other editors, this one can have videos added, and also filters, transitions, text, audio, and stabilization.
Once creating a video using this editor, its title will be named "My Edited Video" by default, and the paragraph "I created this video with the YouTube Video Editor (https://www.youtube.com/editor)" is, also by default, included in the description.
==History==
In June 15, 2010, YouTube released its own video editor for people to edit videos. The only features in this editor at that time were adding videos and audio.
More features in this were later being added, such as transitions and creative commons in 2011, plus text in 2012.
In June 2017, YouTube announced that this video editor, along with its slideshow creator, will be discontinued in September 20, 2017 as YouTube claims its not being used alot, later getting replaced by YouTube Studio Editor a year later.
===Changes===
====2010====
The editor used to have a gradient color in the parts of the video editor, its video viewer was on the right side, and you used to only use the feature of adding videos or audios, which they are called My Videos and Audio.
====2011====
The video viewer lost its borders, making the name and publish interactives no longer attached on them. The transitions and creative commons features were added, and the My Videos and Audio texts were removed. The in and out iris used to be named masks at the time, and there used to be a Pumpkin in and out iris transition.
====2012====
The text feature was added, and the video editor is now accessible in the videos corner. The bottom is now colored black.
====2013====
The feature buttons have reverted back to icons.
====2014====
The video editor had several changes, the bottom is back to white, the background no longer has a gradient color, the video viewer is now at the left side, the feature you are now represents in a red underline instead of brighten, and all the feature texts became back to logos.
====2015-2017====
The publish button is now called the Create video button.
==Features==
This section lists features from the editor.
===Videos===
Videos are an electronic medium for the recording, copying, playback, broadcasting, and display of moving visual media. They can be modified by enhancements such as changing the brightness, contrast, saturation, speed, volume, plus adding filters and/or stabilization.
===Creative Commons===
Creative commons are an internationally active non-profit organisation that provides free licences for creators to use when making their work available to the public. They can also be modified by enhancements just like normal videos.
===Camera/Files===
Files are a computer resource for recording data in a computer storage device, primarily identified by its file name. They can be added to edited videos, no matter if it's an image or a video.
===Audio/Music===
Audio is a sound, especially when recorded, transmitted, or reproduced. The most recommended place where you can add audio from is the audio library.
===Transitions===
Transitions are the process or a period of changing from one video to another. They are most used in slideshows, which in fact this feature is also in the YouTube Slideshow Creator.

==Controversy==
After the announcement of the editor being phased out soon, all users who had huge interests with the editor went frustrated and unhappy after what YouTube had announced. Some became frightened thinking that after the video editor gets phased out, they will have no other place to edit their videos. Users have found the reason of YouTube discontinuing the video editor being low usage very lame and pointless as they claim that the video editor has shown huge usage, causing some users to find that reason as a "totally invalid reason". After the removal, users were later forced with YouTube Studio's video editor, which, at the time, find it completely bad due to the lack of features the editor had. Up to this day, there are likely to less users wishing the editor to come back.
==Trivia==
*A few people refer to this editor as the "Old YouTube Video Editor", likely due to the YouTube Studio Editor being its successor.
