Dan South Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 What tools would you use for editing and why? The Black Knight always triumphs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phait Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 - Platform: Apple - Final Cut Pro (I haven't even tried it though) - DVD Studio Pro 2 (to make DVD/s if needed/wanted) - Moderately professional camera Why? Kind of a no brainer. I am getting more curious about the Mac's ability anyway and would like to try video editing sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderton Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 It depends on what kind of videos you want to make, what your capture medium is, and your platform. For DV capture: Mac - Final Cut Pro Windows - Vegas 5 or Adobe Premiere Amiga - never mind...

jackpine Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 I'm a Vegas junkie. Still on 4.0 tho. www.relayerstudios.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offramp Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 I used FInal Cut Pro on my most recent thing, Hit The Road , pre-production test kind of thing. I would also consider Premier, from Adobe. If you're Mac-based, I would get Final Cut Express. It'll run you about $299, and it'll have all the stuff you need. otherwise, I'd recommend Vegas. I played with an earlier version of it a few years back, and even though it's a PC program, I was impressed. I've upped my standards; now, up yours.

Bejeeber Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 Final Cut Pro - cuz I'm using a Mac for any sorta content creation. Just a pinch between the geek and chum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coyote Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 If I were gonna make a vid, it would be of my own band and it would be just a multi-angle stage performance for demo purposes. Therefore, any inexpensive editor which has good crossfades, chargen, overlay, and a few decent effects would do the job. HT Editor is pretty good, as are some others that can be had for well under $100. I used to think I was Libertarian. Until I saw their platform; now I know I'm no more Libertarian than I am RepubliCrat or neoCON or Liberal or Socialist. This ain't no track meet; this is football.

Dylan Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 Vegas, baby! I'm still on Version 3 and it does everything that I need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelo Clematide Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 Vegas, FinalCut...whatever. And definitely on of this three compositing tools: discreet combustion http://www4.discreet.com/combustion/combustion.php?id=848 After Effects 6.5 pro http://www.ayatoweb.com/ae_tips_e.html Apple Motion http://www.apple.com/motion/ Why? - because if the video you desire exceeds a certain complexety you have to go into compositing. -Peace, Love, and Potahhhhto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techristian Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 I used MediaStudio Pro V5 , V6 and now V7 made by Ulead Systems on my videos going back 5 years ago. I'm now working on a new drum teaching DVD with V7. I love it. To see examples of what I can do with it my 2 music videos are at http://musicinit.com/pvideos.html The only effect that was done with other software is where I'm pulling the skin on my face. (Kais Super Goo) So all of the other effects, transitions, and filters were in Media Studio Pro 6.

phaeton Posted November 9, 2004 Share Posted November 9, 2004 I would use a phone book. Or maybe musicplayer.com forums. I'd be sure to enlist someone that knows wtf they're doing, bc i sure don't I've seen some videos from folks here (One from Gus, two from Techristian) and they looked pretty good.
