Video Editing Software


Recommended Posts

My 13 yr old is trying to learn about video editing. . .

He has a HD PVR that he is using to capture XBox360 and I recently won a HD video camera from a "stacker" machine in a Walmart that he is using too.

He has software to edit the videos, but the only program he has to add music to the video will not save the file in HD format (only AVI or MP4). Even at the highest quality setting, it is nothing like the original HD format.

Can anyone recommend a good software to do this that will not cost an arm and a leg???

He did this video yesterday:

1992 Astro Van - (6) BTL 15's and (6) IA 40.1's = 159.7 dB at 43 Hz.

Mac or PC?

I use Adobe Premiere Pro on my PC and Final Cut Pro & iLife on my Mac.

What program does he use already?

I use Adobe Premier Pro but it can cost a lot if you arent pirating it, and it takes a lot of learning to use it right.

You can also look into Sony Vegas Pro and even Windows Movie maker allows you to add music and output HD as long as you add the plugins.

Yeah I failed to mention Premier Pro is a bish to learn. I like Vegas Pro and I always have issues with Movie Maker and the audio levels after the video is saved.

I have Sony Vegas HD 9.0. I really only use it to splice clips together and add words. I'm pretty sure EXO used Vegas for his videos and he does some SICK videos. So clearly you can do a lot more with it than I do.
