At GDQuest we used to edit all of our videos with [Blender](https://www.blender.org/). It's a powerful tool, but its default workflow can feel a little slow.

That's why we built [Power Sequencer](https://github.com/GDQuest/Blender-power-sequencer/), a **Free and Open Source** add-on to help you edit faster with Blender's Video Sequence editor.

Power Sequencer comes preinstalled with Blender since version 2.81.

### Learn Power Sequencer

The following pages will teach you how to use Power Sequencer:

1. Getting started will help you learn the basics.
2. Features reference lists all the features and shortcuts in the add-on.

We also made some video tutorials:

1. [Intro to Video Editing with Blender's VSE](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zcj4onvP06w), a general introduction to Blender's Video Sequencer.
2. [Power Sequencer Workflow tutorial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZoZaSsuhXw) is dedicated to the add-on and its editing workflow.

You can find more in our playlist [Free Blender VSE tutorials](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLhqJJNjsQ7KFjp88Cu57Zb9_wFt7nlkEI) on YouTube.
