Question by kevinkm77: What is a good video editing software thats like Final Cut Pro, but for the PC? I don’t care about price.?
I need a good video editing software that has very crisp text-on-slide format and that can also incorporate pictures very smoothly and that can make videos to upload on YouTube, very education like, like Final Cut Pro, but for the PC. I am pretty computer smart, so no need to pick overly simple software. But, I’m open to any ideas. (Let’s rule out Windows Movie Maker. I don’t like their boring generic text-on-slides and choppy and boring images inclusion.)
Here are the ones I am considering so you don’t have to tell me these: Corel VideoStudio, Sony Vegas but please, if you want to suggest these, go ahead, but include details about why the software is good.
Brian, stop being a smartass, if Google was the answer to everything, yahoo answers would not be in existence. So go take your miserable existence somewhere else.
Oh yeah, Brian, you’re going to get banned from Yahoo! Answers if you just keep trolling. Get your ass off of the internet if your just going to be a bitch. “Try Google sometime.” No one gives a shit, die in a fire.
Thanks for your suggestion, Tim, I will definitely keep that on my list. PowerDirector looks like a great program for my needs.
All great Glenn, but I left this detail out: I need a program that has a small learning curve. Adobe usually needs a long time to get used to it. A software that I could figure out within an hour. I guess I threw you off with “not too overly simple” sorry!
Avid Express is a good candidate.

I’ve been using CyberLink PowerDirector and it’s really easy/fun to use. It’s like iMovie or w/e for Macs, in ease of use, but isn’t kiddy software. On the other-hand, if you want to get some really serious video editing software, check out Adobe After-Effects. It can do whatever you want. You just need to learn how to use it.
