Movie making software

[SAS_UK]

I would like to put together my own video clip for apacheclips. I was going to use windows movie maker however most of the videos i try importing are the wrong format so i give up using it.

Anybody know of other decent software i could use which is not too pricey to edit my videos?

Thanks. Im having trouble with windows movie maker as it wont accept mp4 when i try to import it. Im looking at avs at the moment, its free and accepts most formats, or so it says.

You can always try Videospin which is a free version of Pinnacle Studio.
I cannot post links yet but you can google it.

If you like WMM you might just look around for a free media format converter software program. There are alot of them out there for free. I have a Mac and I use something called flv converter. will take anything and convert it to anything. It rocks.

That way when you have a file format windows wont accept ypu can convert the file to one it will accept. There might be an addon in firefox that does that but Im not totally sure.

Video Studio Pro X3 is powerful yet easy to use, and accepts most formats.
Or if you want something more powerful then i use Adobe premier CS4 and "after effects" - should you want to track someones face and black it out throughout the video say ; )

Feel free to drop me a mail and i'll tell you where i got it from should you not have the $'s they like you to pay.

They both allow you to drag any type of vid in and render it to another, say mp4 in, and .mov or mpeg etc... out.
