Adobe Premiere Rush CC is a lightweight video editor that gives you all the essential features. This program was intentionally scaled down from the full Adobe Premiere program in order to create a faster program that's better for smaller systems. You'll find that this program is best for editing amateur video for social media and streaming sites.

Basic Video Editing

While Adobe Premiere Rush CC is technically a basic program when compared to the full version, you'll find that this is one of the strongest and most straightforward basic video editors around. You can easily add up to four videos tracks and three audio tracks per project. There are also overlapping filters and effects you can add to make your video look even better. The program also senses when sounds are speech, music or background noise. This makes it much easier to edit the video as it will immediately show you the talking parts.

The layout is very helpful. There is a large preview window that shows you what the video looks like so far. Along the side you'll find the editing tools for changing and enhancing the video. Most of the tools are right there for you. While you might have to do some digging for certain tools, the majority are easy to find.

Best for Social Media

The program is best for social media use because it includes many tools that help you quickly upload the video to your preferred social media outlet. The Share tool will instantly add the video to whatever social media site you like, and you can also change the metadata for the title, tags, description and thumbnail during the uploading process.

This also works with some of the larger streaming sites, but not all of them. This is much faster than uploading manually and it also gives you more control of the metadata.

Learning Curve

While this is a basic program in terms of video editing, there is a learning curve that new users must overcome. This is more advanced than other basic video editors as it has more tools and allows for more comprehensive editing. If this is your first video editor, then you're going to have a hard time at first. There are some tutorials here and there, but this program will require some time to learn.

If you're willing to put in the time, then you'll find that this program is very straightforward and powerful. Just be sure to stay calm and be willing to make mistakes when you first start.

Cloud Syncing

Another great feature is that Premiere Rush can sync to cloud storage so that your file is automatically saved whenever you make any changes. This is great because you won't lose any progress if your computer crashes or the program closes for some reason. This syncing is automatic and will save your files without you even noticing.
