Comment by Rich Klasen on November 6, 2008 at 5:11pm: Ryan,
I've spent the last few weeks with Adobe Premier Elements and I like it a lot.
It was fairly easy to learn, I made my first 5 minute clip in about 4 hours.
Next is to get better at using the fades and effects, but this looks like a solid platform that fits my situation.

Thanks for your recommendation.

Rich

Comment by Rich Klasen on October 8, 2008 at 7:48pm: Ryan,
Thanks, I'll look into those

Comment by Ryan Leyesa on October 8, 2008 at 7:39pm: Klasen: I like Adobe's Master Collection, but you can also get Premiere as a standalone. Your other options include Sony Vegas, Corel's VideoStudio, Avid's software, and maybe some Autodesk software

Comment by Rich Klasen on October 8, 2008 at 4:38pm: I'm looking for cost effective windows video editing software.
I've got an opportunity but don't have the cash to buy a mac and final cut.
whats available for windows that will allow me to edit the video images into a new idea ?
any suggestions ?
