App Smackdown: Video Star

          The app I have chosen to do for my smackdown is Video Star. Video Star is an IOS app (only available on Apple devices) used for video editing. You can use this app to do multiple things like putting music over a clip, putting clips together or cutting them, adding effects or transitions, etc. Many of the extra features are paid, meaning you do have to pay just to use them, but the base app is free. The app also includes video tutorials on how to use each feature if you are unfamiliar with how to use them. 

        As to how I would use this app in my coursework, I would use it for assignments that requires any kind of video submission (like this one!) This app would be useful for any kind of social media post or even putting together a concept for something. Because it is an app that you can download on an iPhone or iPad, that makes it even more convenient for on-the-go use and if you need to get something done quickly.
