What Video Editing Tool Should I Use?

by Alex on October 4, 2008

There are a number of great video editing tools available for both the PC and the Mac.

On the PC, my favorite is Sony Vegas. It does just about everything you need and it’s very affordable. It handles HD video and audio production tasks with ease and produces professional level video. It’s easy to use and learn. It has wizards to import and export projects so that you can get started quickly.

The program is chock full of Show Me How interactive tutorials that help you learn to use the software quickly. The Show Me How tutorials make it easy to complete a project step-by-step.

On the Mac, the king of video production software is Final Cut. It’s kind of expensive, but it’s great software if you are really serious about producing the highest quality video.
