where can i find free video editing programs

Postby firestorm » Thu Jul 01, 2010 1:41 pm

Note: I am not asking for sites for illegally downloading programs but rather free programs in which I can edit and convertmy portfolio (a .mov file) into a .qt file so I can upload it to my portfolio site.

Can you guys help me with this?

I am currently on my 4th draft of the script for Canvas! Canvas is a watercolor animated short about how everything declares of a Creator and how everything happens for a reason. If anyone would like to help by sending me resources on watercolor or animation it would be greatly appreciated!

I am also on my 1st draft of a short live-action Romcom called "Behind Every Good Man! Behind Every Good Man is about a Bride-to-be, Evelyn, who must stop her Mother-in-Law, Pamela, from living her dream wedding through Evelyn's. Along the way she learns what it means to be a Woman of Integrity today! If anyone wants to help let me know!

If you're looking to convert, there's a few things. I use Handbrake or another, I can't remember what it's called. When I get to my computer next, I'll try to update.

For things to actually edit movies...I'm afraid I can't help.

It can depend on what kind of computer you use. I use a Mac, so I've found stuff in the Downloads section of the Apple website for some software here and there. It's free and legal.

I have no idea what that's talking about. I know you have to go to ffmpegX->Install Binaries to link it to the place where you've got mpet2enc, mencoder, and mplayer, but I don't know about "progress.app" for that. I've never seen that one. Maybe you have a newer version than I do.
