What is Layer in KineMaster?

KineMaster Layer Tool

Layer in KineMaster is basically a way of adding multiple effects, text, overlay on top of a single or multiple video clips as an editable layer. Currently KineMaster allows you to add a total of 5 different forms of layers. These are;

(1.) Media

“Media” option will allow you to import more images or video clips but this time as a layer. Meaning the clip or image which you import as a layer will sit above the original video clip.

(2.) Effect

Effects adds different looks and statistics to your video clips. Effects include Blur, Kaleidoscope, Mirror, Warp etc. Of course not all are free. By default you get only 2 effects pre installed. Rest are all paid. The pre installed effects are Gaussian Blur and Mosaic.
