Video Editing Software Choices
So let's talk tech!
For those of you already set on your editing software, what are you planning on using?
For those of you just starting out, what hardware (Mac, PC, chromebook, ipad?) are you planning on using? Have you tried any editing software before?
Here are a couple of lists of current software options that seem pretty comprehensive to me...
Free
Full list with prices listed
Out of these, I (Lola) have used Premiere (what I use now), Final Cut Pro (which I love), and imovie, which is not non-linear and I found very frustrating for vid-making.
I also use the iPad app Lumafusion, which is pretty amazing for an ipad app.
I have heard really good things about Davinci Resolve -- it's free and apparently as powerful or more than Premiere. I'm thinking of downloading it today and trying to make a set of pechakuchas on it, so if anyone wants to join me on that adventure, please do!
I've also heard good things about Wondershare Filmora as a somewhat affordable and intuitive first step video editing software.
A few tutorials on YouTube I dug up that seem good:
Excellent Davinci Resolve Tutorial
Another Davinci Resolve Tutorial
A whole tutorial playlist on Filmora
LumaFusion Tutorial for Beginners
Also, there are some great affordable tools for screengrabbing and downloading (like, from YouTube).
4K downloader is stellar for getting HQ files from YouTube (I'm trying to think, I may have had to go premium to get the 1080p...
and Movavi is great for screencapturing things, well, playing on your screen

We can add to this list as I find more and get a sense of what software folks are using!
