Ok. So im planning on making my first actual video today. I need some editing software. Free and easy to learn, but with some cool effects. That would be perfect.

Any advice or ideas?

Thanks a ton guys!

think that WMM is crap, but i still use it. I got a virus from downloading illegal programs, so i dont do that anymore. Sony vegas is supposed to be good, and adobe premiere is good if you know how to use it.

I can’t open up my Sony Vegas Pro 9 software, because there are viruses. ☹

So I picked a great software, AVS Video editing (not free).

Happy Throwing! =]

movie maker can do the basics.  
but pinnacle studios is much better (but not free)
