Video software

[Danny.Robertson]

I'm doing an Anti-Bullying video for youtube and I need some free video editing software that is easy to use whilst giving good results. Help me please.

I'd suggest using Windows Live Movie Maker for something small as putting clips together with some text.

Fraps is just a screen recorder, not a video editor/video editing software.

Depends on your platform. Windows Live Movie maker is actually pretty good these days, and would work well if you're on Windows 7/8

On a mac, just use iMovie. :)

WLMM is simple and useful for simple text and putting video in...not much else.

iMovie is great if you have a Mac.

iMovie is part of iLife, which is paid software. The OP asked for free editing software.

Aaaaand if you get an actual Mac (as in, not a hackintosh), it is free, because iLife comes bundled on Mac's pre-installed with OS X. :P

I'm assuming that if he had one, his mac is made by Apple and therefore should have iMovie on it free of charge.

Every new mac, it still costs $15 for ones that didn't come with it installed in the App Store.

If the OP does run a mac I'd suggest having a browse through the second link.

That doesn't make it actually free, most people just get it pre-installed on their Mac, creating the illusion it's free.

If you want something free and useful (iMovie is neither) you can try Wax (http://www.debugmode.com/wax/).

True, but still. If not installed on Apple hardware, you have to pay $79/whatever it is these days. If you do have a apple-hardware mac, which most mac users have, then it's 'free', even if you wipe your hard drive and do a fresh install of OS X.
