I am having to edit some video I took of a couple events over the last week and Movie Maker just is not cutting it for what I need and I will be using the program heavily over the next week for GISHWES (the list drops Sat am and I am stoked about it) I am on trial with the After Effects from Adobe for about 7 days but its very cumbersome to learn even with the Utube tutorials, I am just considering it a newbie thing since I never used it before and it takes a while to get used to, but I also find this program way more advanced than what I need it for. That program is like for pros and serious video editing. I just want basic stuff done.. I am needing other options for video editing especially with help with the stabilization and adding text and maybe a photo or two with the video.

I have lost interest in video/movie, but way back when, I loved Pinnacle.
I assume the program is still as good, or most likely even better now. |

I think After Effects is, like its name, mainly intended for fine-tuning after the basic editing is done. Premiere is their main video editor, and they make a "lite" version (like they do for Photoshop) which should handle what you need to do, and should be fairly intuitive to use.

Awesome thank you!
That after effects is an awesome program but way over my head for the moment to get things done now :-)

I work with Premiere and as said before Premiere Elements is perfect for a non super professional use.
After Effects is not an editing program, it's a compositing software and does quite different things. Edit a video with it is like running a marathon with one leg: you can do it but is much harder :) |

Thank you, I have checked out the different programs and I am downloading the Premiere.. It seems that will fit me best to what I need it to do and its really reasonable priced too after the trial is over :-)

| It has been years, but I bought a video capture card from Pinnacle, and it came bundled with Adobe Premier. P did everything I needed it to do, and even more. Now, with the full Adobe subscription, it is part of the package. |

For editing I would imagine Premiere to be better suited than After Effects. Would look at DaVinci Resolve as an alternative.
In a similar level of software, Sony Vegas, DaVinci Resolve (there's a light weight free version). Top of the line is Avid. On the lower end and easy to use are products from Gilisoft. On the open source side, I sometimes just VirtualDub for simple cuts. |
