Announcements

All  NEW  Filter Library  

We’re happy to share that we’ve added over 40 new filters to Flixier! These contain everything from creative effects to filters meant to enhance skin tones, and movie-inspired looks to help you give your videos a more cinematic feel. 

Since our filters are growing up, they’re also moving from their usual spot in the Properties Panel to their own place in the left-hand menu. 

When you add a filter to a video, it will appear as its own object in the timeline and apply to everything underneath it, giving you more control over how you use them. You can control their duration easily, or select them and click the button in the Properties Panel to extend them to the entire duration of your project. 

 NEW  Subtitle Presets 

We also added 20 new animated, customizable subtitle presets that you can use to spice up your subtitles! You can find them in the Style tab, along with the other Subtitle Presets.

We’re happy to announce that we’ve partnered with Storyblocks to make their premium stock assets library available in Flixier! 

What this means is that you’ll now be able to access more than five million premium Storyblock videos and audio tracks straight from the Stock tab as part of your Pro or Business Flixier subscription.
 

On top of that, our new Storyblocks assets are also accessible to Flixier VideoGPT, so you know you’ll get the highest quality media when you generate a video using stock footage! 
 

General Bugfixes

On top of the Storyblocks integration, this latest update also includes a number of fixes: 

• Subtitle effects UI bug: changing a subtitle effect now properly updates and displays the relevant options beneath it, as expected. 
• Subtitle visibility bug: fixed a bug that prevented subtitles from displaying properly after a video was transcribed. 
• Subtitle export glitches: fixed a number of glitches that sometimes appeared when exporting animated subtitles. 

We’ve added a new Elements tab to the sidebar, containing all your favorite Flixier graphical assets, like Shapes and Icons, Motion Titles, Motion Graphics, Waveforms, Masks, and more! 

Scroll through the list of categories and click on View All to search through them and find your favorite.

 NEW  Waveforms

Add a little visual engagement to your podcasts with animated Waveforms! 

Just open the Elements tab and drag your favorite Waveform down to the timeline. The waveforms are dynamic and fully animated, so they will move according to the audio that’s playing in your video. 

You can drag on the edges of waveforms on the timeline to extend their duration and click on them to change the style or color of the waveform from the right-side menu.

 NEW  Mask Menu 

We have also revamped how Masks are applied to make the whole process more intuitive. You can now find them grouped together in the Elements menu, 

Just select the type of Mask you want to apply, drag it over to the video, and adjust its position like before. 

You can still use the Object Inspector menu to change the type of filter the Mask applies or animate it using keyframes. 

More  Word Highlight  subtitle options

When you use the Word Highlight subtitle style, you can now customize the color of the text as well as the background from the right-side panel. 
 

Flixier Video GPT is now live, so you can generate videos with Flixier straight from ChatGPT.

Just click on Explore GPTs and look up Flixier. 

After you start the chat, you can just tell the Flixier GPT your video idea. It's going to ask you 4 simple questions to generate a fitting script: 

After your script is generated, you'll be asked to pick between a male or female voiceover. 

Once you pick your voiceover, your video will be generated. You'll get a link that takes you to our AI video generator, where you can preview your video, customize the subtitles, replace any of the footage, and choose a different voiceover. 

You can then save the video to your computer, or edit it even further by opening it in Flixier.

Write or generate a script

You can either start by typing out your script or you can press the / key to let our AI writer help you out. You’ll be able to pick from different topics, and you’ll need to fill out a couple of fields depending on the topic of your choice. 
 

If you think the script could be better, you can always edit it yourself, or ask the AI Assistant to rewrite, or make it shorter or longer depending on your needs.

You’ll also be able to pick between our AI voices and your own cloned voices to use for narration:

Customize the captions

After your video is generated, you can easily enable/disable, or customize the captions: 

Generate new images

Don't like one of the images? Use the Media tab to replace it with a new one. You can also upload your own logo to add to the video!

Choose a voiceover

Finally, the Voiceover tab is where you can pick out a new voice, or get started with cloning your own. 

Save or edit in Flixier

Lastly, when you’re happy with your video, you can Export it to your computer or click on Edit More to open it in Flixier for more in-depth edits.

Our Review Link system just got an update! You should now be able to see and reply to comments on your Projects directly from the timeline to make it a lot easier to keep track of comments and reply to them while working on your videos. 

The Review Links now also update automatically, so your clients or colleagues can always access the most up-to-date version.

Don’t like any of our hundreds of AI voices? Fine, you can use your own! 

You can now clone your own voice using our text-to-speech tool. All you need to do is record a few sample phrases so the AI can learn what you sound like and mimic you as closely as possible. 

Choose your own language from the dropdown in the lower right corner to get sample phrases in your native language. This also helps the AI pick up the right accent. 

You can also name your new voice and choose which device you want to use when recording your sample phrases.
 

And don’t worry. The voices you record will only be available on your account! 

We’ve been experimenting a lot with AI over the last few months, and three new features just made their way into Flixier! 
 

Turn images into videos

Upload any image (or choose one from your Flixier library), then turn them into short videos in seconds. 

You can save the generated video on your computer or open it in the editor to keep working on your project. 
 

Create stickers of yourself

Take any selfie and turn it into a sticker, complete with the white outline and transparent background!

When you’re done, you can use it in your videos or save the .PNG and share it on social media and messaging apps. 

Remove the background from your photos

Upload your image to Flixier and use our background remover to create a clean cutout automatically with the help of AI. 

Generate your own sounds

If you're looking for a sound that's not in the Effects library, you can now generate it yourself using the new AI Text to Sound tool. Describe your sound in the prompt box, choose a general category, then hit the Generate 

You can find all of these in the AI Tools section of the Flixier dashboard, and look forward to more AI features coming soon! 

We’re happy to announce that our export menu has gotten a well-deserved makeover, making it more consistent and more intuitive than ever. 
 

The menu now pops up on the right whenever you click the Export button. The three available formats are all listed right at the top, alongside any format-specific options such as GIF framerate.

There’s a checkmark allowing you to choose whether you want your video to be downloaded as soon as the export is finished.

The lower side contains a list of all the platforms to which you can export your video. Clicking on one will prompt you to link your accounts or fill in any specific information required to publish videos on the platform. 

The Export tab of the Dashboard has also been upgraded. Clicking on a video here will now open the Publish menu, which displays a quick preview of your video alongside basic information like file size, duration, and resolution on the left side. The right side gives you the option to download the video to your computer and gives you a full list of platforms to publish your video to. 

Our journey started with a dream to innovate the way creators edit their videos. For the past 6 years, we’ve been constantly working on empowering creators to unleash their creativity and tell their stories through captivating videos. Allow us to reintroduce ourselves: we’re Flixier, the tool where creativity, efficiency, and speed meet.
 

Flixier has been steadily growing and improving in the past years, so we figured it’s time for our logo to showcase it through a makeover. It’s the same product you’ve come to know and love with a brand-new look.

Our logo draws inspiration straight from our video editing timeline tracks and collaborative features. Can you spot anything familiar hidden in our new logo? ⤵️
 

…but we didn’t stop here. Our entire website has undergone a fresh makeover. Our iconic Crayola blue meets new shade palettes for a more dynamic and vibrant look. Dive right in and explore the hundreds of powerful yet intuitive video and audio editing tools at your disposal.

This is the new Flixier look and feel, with the same passion and commitment to bringing a complete video editing toolkit at the fingertips of creators all around the world. And the surprises won’t stop at the website! You can look forward to the new Flixier identity making its way into the actual editor over the coming months.
 

Until next time, we hope you have a great time breathing life into your vision through video stories. Happy creating!
