Two Very Good Editing Programs

[Science Saturdays]

I have worked with an array of video editing programs in the past (not for youtube but for other stuff) and I want to share the two best ones I have found. You will need to fork over some money for these, but they are fantastic! (Google the software to find the website; I can't post links)
Camtasia Studio
Pros:

• Comes with a recording program as well
• Comes with free music
• Comes with intros, outros, and free music
• You can zoom in, pan around, highlight stuff, and change audio levels
• You can edit out the mouse cursor
• Easy to use (once you get used to)
• Ability to cut, copy, paste, magnify the timeline to edit out stutters, split the video, export videos

Cons:

• Expensive: $300
• You need to play around with it for a while to learn the software (a.k.a. it is hard to pick up)

Pinnacle Studio Ultimate 17
Pros:

• Cheap(er):$130
• Can import media and export media
• Free music
• Over 2000 transitions and effects
• Intros come with it

Cons:

• Editing is more restricted (you can do more with Camtasia)
• Out of the 2000+ transitions and effects, only a handful are worthwhile

Verdict: If you have the money, purchase Camtasia. After you play around with it, you will find that it does literally everything. You can't go wrong with either one of them, but the more you put in the more you get out. With Camtasia, you get a lot of editing power. With Pinnacle, you get a lot of effects and transitions. If you have any questions about the software, feel free to ask away below!
