DJ-Jelly-Doughnut 112 Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Hey all. I'm new to the idea of editing videos, adding sound.. etc. Anyways. Looking for suggestions as to any programs that would meet these needs. I plan on doing some editing of clips to upload to YouTube. Bonus points for any programs that would also allow me to create overlays and such. Thanks! Link to post Share on other sites
Graven 3,065 Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 I recommend Kdenlive, and for basic editing OpenShot. I've used them only on Linux but both are available for Windows too. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
DJ-Jelly-Doughnut 112 Posted September 9, 2020 Author Share Posted September 9, 2020 I got OpenShot. So far seems like a great program! Thanks for the suggestion! Link to post Share on other sites

Blaze 14,224 Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Sony Vegas or Adobe Premiere are both pretty standard editing programs most would use, personally I prefer Vegas as I've been using it well over 10 years but both are great. I've heard Davinci Resolve is pretty good too, and it's free. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
ghost of delete key 228 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 DaVinci gets my vote. Quite similar to Vega, maybe even more? Any way, it won't leave you wanting for functionality, and you can't beat the price. Link to post Share on other sites
LL Cool L 15,804 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 I used Filmora wondershare, easy as f*ck, basic and a good intro to editing....plus it has a free version 1 Link to post Share on other sites
DarkDayz 869 Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Hey! The industry standard software for editing is Premiere Pro and Avid Media Composer, however these are expensive. But there is a third programme you can use that's becoming more popular amongst professionals and has a lite version that is free. Called Davinci Resolve. Link to post Share on other sites
