Question by Sincerely Amanda: Do you know of a special effects film editing software?
My brother makes short movies featuring lightsaber duels. He creates the effects frame by frame using the GIMP. Is there a film editing software that makes this process more convenient and smooth – such as, not having to do the animated inserts frame by from?

Free downloads are desirable if available, of course, but any reliable program would be nice to know about.
