Project basics
Corel VideoStudio combines the video, titles, sounds, and effects in a
process called rendering. Project settings determine how your movie
project is rendered when you preview it. The output video can then be
played back on your computer, burned to disc, or uploaded to the
Internet.

Creating new projects and opening projects
When you start Corel VideoStudio, it automatically opens a new
project and lets you start creating your movie. New projects are
always based on the default settings of the application. You can also
create HTML5 projects that you can post on the Web.
