Tubecop allows you to easily chop sections from any YouTube video and share it. This makes it a great tool to use when analysing the media e.g. like a news report or video clip from a film. It has a simple interface that only requires limited inputs to crop a video. The only steps that are required is to input the URL of the video and the start and stop times of the segment that you are interested in grabbing. This will help when I have to analysis videos for my media coursework/ homework.
