Budget Video Editing Software

matty55

Ok so I've been out of the video editing scene for a few years and was looking for a budget (Less than €100 if possible) video editing software to ease myself back in. Can anyone recommend any? Thanks

On a PC I'd recommend Moviemaker - its free
On a mac I 'd recommend iMovie - its free with the operating system.

I think both of these are as good as budget software.

You can get adobe premiere for a monthly subscription. about £15 a month

The light version is free, only good for raw or prores tho.

You could always use ffmpeg to convert or just render to image sequence.

Also another thing thats overlooked is blender, it actually has a video editor and compositor it's free and perfect for h264 and mp3s.

Avid's releasing a free version of Media Composer some time this year. There's a lot of competition nowadays, but it's still the industry standard and would be a great tool to get familiar with the full version;

A lot of folks hate MC, but I definitely think it's the way to go.

around €100? I switched to Adobe Premier Elements 12 a while back and find this is an excellent program for my needs, mainly uploads for youtube. Easy learning curve especially if you have already had some experience in editing. I think they're now up to version 14. Plenty of variety and lots of optional formats for your final product. I haven't burnt any DVD's from it so can't comment on its performance in this regard.
