Editing Programs

[AlexBarrett]

Hey guys, I'm a small-time Youtube commentator, and I was wondering what are some ABSOLUTELY FREE programs similar to Sony Vegas or something like that.

Rules: There can be torrents.
No viruses or trojans, please.

now im assuming you have windows.your best bet is the 2012 version of windows movie maker. HOWEVER if you have a mac i could share some really good programs

[Cygnus]

iMovie is a really good one that comes free with Mac.
VirtualDub is another useful one (only windows compatible).
ZS4 is also quite good and complete (Mac, Windows, and possibly Linux compatible).

[Celtic.]

VirtualDub is not what its all hyped up to be

Go and buy Corel VideoStudio Pro X5, it's about £30 and you can do quite a lot in such an easy to use interface, even my favorite, chrome keying!


No viruses or trojans, please.

What are you to expect when you illegally download software via torrents? That's a no brainer. Most torrents contain them thanks to cracks/warez/keygens. Buying the software will leave you trojan free.

Windows movie maker. Basic.

[Croconaw]

iMovie is a good one and WMV is what I use. I don't have a Mac

[Camazotz]

I've used Cyberlink Power Director to edit videos, which I found to be really easy to learn and use. To record, I used Snagit. If you want to produce quality stuff, you can't expect quality programs to be free.

Why get something similar to Sony Vegas when you can get the program itself?

[CuriousGlasweigan]

As others have said Windows Movie Maker 2013 it's probably the simplest video editing programme I have seen

If you don't mind paying or torrenting (stealing) I would highly reccomend premiere pro. It has a nice interface, is complex enough, but not overly and is very feature rich.
