jacobos 0 #1 July 26, 2006 What software does anyone recommend for a beginer that is just editing video for fun and friends? Tries Sony Vegas and it seems complicated. Maybe I'm just not computer literate enough, but just for fun it seems there would be something more simple. Something that you can just put some music to and maybe a little slow-mo. Not really much more than that. What do you think? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rwieder 0 #3 July 26, 2006 If you have a relatively new CPU or laptop, use Roxio, or utilize some of windows media player #9, or movie maker. Get this mastered and worry about the rest later.

The111 1 #5 July 26, 2006 I actually prefer Vegas and think it's the easiest to use, of the few I've tried (I haven't tried Window Movie Maker yet though). Try to find some Vegas tutorials if you can't figure it out on your own, the interface is really pretty simple. You can make a whole movie with slow-mo, fades, and music by just clicking and dragging basically.www.WingsuitPhotos.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
