72HR Edit Contest 

The LumaFusion 72 Hour Editing Contest challenged LumaFusion customers to create a short video titled: This Is Why I Edit. After the prompt was announced, participants had 72 hours to think, plan, collect footage, and edit their videos. Aida Travel Secrets stole the show with her fun edits, creatively weaving LumaFusion into the video, and a personality that leapt off the timeline. A new iPad Air was awarded to the winner.

2022 Best Edit Contest

We asked LumaFusion editors to send us their best edit of 2022 and they didn’t disappoint! Entries were judged on their editing first and then on their storytelling. The winning entry was chosen as the most professional looking timeline along with the most entertaining video.  D.G. Chichester won a $1,000 US Gift Card for his winning entry, Just Add Water!
