Common Video Editing Software Programs

Video Editing software program merupakan software yang digunakan untuk mengedit, "manipulating" with effects, and "making" new video.
Software editing video ada yang free(gratis), ada juga yang trial dan berbayar.

There are free many video editing software programs available for download today, but not all of them are good. However, yang namanya free tetap aja enak. Many programs simply don't do what the manufacturers say that they will do, and others don't provide enough - or any support. Of course, most free software does not include the same level or quality of support that you would expect to find with software that you purchase. While you should remember that you get what you pay for, there really is some good free video editing software available.
Setelah browsing kemana-mana, beberapa freeware editing yang biasa digunakan adalah:
1. Microsoft Movie Maker
Already installed on newer computers that are running Windows XP, Movie Maker has drag and drop features to make creating and editing your movie easier. Microsoft has many add-ons for this software, and upgrades are available through the website. This is one of the best free video editing software programs available.

2. Apple iMovie
Apple iMovie is comparable to Windows Movie Maker, but Apple iMovie is used on the MAC operating system. Apple iMovie has many advanced features and add-ons. Unfortunately, the software is only free if you buy a new MAC system. If you want the software without buying the system, it is available for purchase. One of the best free video editing programs available for MAC users.

3. Avid FreeDV
Avid FreeDV is available for both Windows and MAC operating systems, and includes basic video and audio editing capabilities, as well as up to two streams of real-time effects. On the whole, a solid video editing program that is slightly hard to use, but very powerful once you learn its ins and outs.

3. Wax
Wax is a high performance and flexible free video editing software program. It
started out as a college project, and has since grown. Wax is good for both
home users and professionals. It can be used as a stand-alone application, or
as a plug-in to other video editors. The software also features unlimited video and audio tracks with top-down compositing.

4. Zwei-Stein
Zwei-Stein is great free video editing software, but the user interface is
very technical. It is full featured, offering many different effects. It can
edit up to 256 video, audio, and still image clips. There are up to 64 effects, which can be chained serially. An interesting program that's worth looking at.

5. Pinnacle Spin
Video Spin, for PCs, is free video editing software from Pinnacle. Video Spin is specifically designed to take the complexity out of video editing, but it still includes tools, transitions and effects so you can easily jazz up your videos.

6. Virtual Dub
Virtual Dub offers simple editing capabilities. You can't get too creative with the software, but you can use it to make simple, clean edits in your video footage. Virtual Dub works with PCs only.

7. Jahshaka
"Powering the New Hollywood," Jahshaka is a free, open source video editing software, that will give you powerful editing capabilities.

8. HyperEngine-AV
This is a popular free software for Macs. The "trackless" editing system makes it easy to combine video, audio and photos.

9. Free Online Editing Software
Several web applications are available that provide free video editing online. These services are great for re-editing and re-mixing web videos, and some even offer to produce DVDs of your edited videos.

Microsoft Movie Maker for Windows users, and Apple iMovie for MAC users are probably the two easiest to use free video editing software programs available. Both of the products will allow you to do what you want to do with your videos. However, trying out the others, you may find that you are able to add more effects and such to your videos as well. Of all the available programs out there, these are the top five free video editing software programs available.

Untuk software yang trial atau mungkin kita perlu membeli dengan uang agar dapat full features, dan kualitas yang lebih. Di antaranya yang mungkin perlu diketahui:
1. Adobe Premiere
Adobe Premire katanya bagus untuk editing video. Tetapi, saya belum pernah menggunakannya, karena belum punya yang full version, he3x. Kebanyakan untuk menggabungkan pecahan-pecahan video clip menjadi satu.

2. Ulead Video Studio
Ulead Video Studio, tidak kalah dengan adobe premiere. Ulead Video Studio biasa saya gunakan untuk menambahkan effect animasi. Animasi di ulead lebih beragam dan mudah penggunaannya. Selain itu, Ulead Video Studio mendukung banyak format video file. Anda pasti tahu, kebanyakan video dibuat dengan menyisipkan video clip tambahan yang berasal dari download di internet dimana format file videonya beragam. Mungkin, Ulead Video Studio bisa jadi solusi untuk format file video yang jarang digunakan, seperti mkv, rmvb, rm, flv, etc.

3. Pinnacle Hollywood FX
Pinnacle Hollywood FX merupakan software yang mendukung format video yang umum saja. Coba Anda masukkan format FLV (video flash), pasti gak support. Yang saya tahu, support avi format. Effect dari Pinnacle Hollywood FX cukup lumayan, dan jika digabungkan dengan Ulead Video Studio akan semakin mantap hasilnya.

4. Sony Vegas Pro
Software ini merupakan salah satu software khusus untuk video dan audio editing. Fitur yang dimiliki hampir sama dengan fitur editing video umumnya. Kelebihannya, Sony Vegas Pro memiliki interface pada panel langsung tampak dilayar dan fitur Drag and Drop. Bahkan dapat mengunakan multiple monitor. Misalnya anda memiliki 2 monitor, sementara 1 monitor digunakan untuk editing, sedangkan monitor lainnya dapat digunakan untuk display hasil video editing.

5. Xilisoft Video Editor
No need to be worried about formats, frame rate or file sizes, the functions of video join, split and cut can be easily achieved by Xilisoft Video Editor. The video editing software allows you to edit video files in various formats like AVI, MPEG, H.264, SWF, MOV, WMV, etc. for playback on popular devices like iPod, iPhone, PSP, PS3, and so on. The three processes, video join, split and cut, can run in background without too much space occupation.
As a video joiner, splitter and cutter, Xilisoft Video Editor has an intuitive interface and makes it easy to turn original videos into works of art. And also you can watch the video in the preview window. Xilisoft Video Editor is well worthy of having a try.

6. Roxio VideoWave Professional

Roxio VideoWave 7 Professional is a quick-and-easy video editing tool that allows you to turn your captured video into DVDs in a jiffy. There are in-built Hollywood-style transitions, special effects, text credits and music which you can experiment with. Throw in Dolby Digital sound, along with a very reasonable price - and we have a winner.

7.muvee AutoProducer

This little gem of a video editing tool is a big favorite amongst many beginner digital video enthusiasts. Muvee AutoProducer lets you compile a movie project in a few simple steps. Start with some raw footage captured from a digital camcorder, choose some MP3 background music, pick a style and voila! The rest is magic - you get is a professional looking video complete with scene transitions, soundtrack, opening titles and end credits.

8. WinDVD Creator
WinDVD Creator 2 from InterVideo is a simple, low cost software package that can convert almost any video source to a VCD or DVD directly - without having to first store it on a hard drive. Beginners can easily accomplish taks with a startup wizard or progress to a more complex storyboard-editing mode. This mode shows the video clip sequence and allows the addition of special effects, transitions or audio. I also like the interesting built-in feature of removing commercials from videos directly downloaded from a TV source.

9.Video Explosion Deluxe
This video editing program allows you to turn ordinary videos into professional productions quickly and easily. With an enormous library of video clips, music and sound effects, you can experiment to your heart's content. On the whole, a highly recommended video software for both home and business.

10. ZS4 Video Editor
ZS4 Video Editor is video editing and compositing software which aims to provide media experts with a facility to combine a variety of media types (currently photos, videos and audio files) into one (or more) output file(s).
ZS4 Video Editor can be used like an object oriented photo-manipulation program with a timeline: things that can be manipulated in a photo (workshop) program can be manipulated in ZS4 using parameters which alter over time.

11. Video Edit Magic 4.30
Ini adalah software yang saya gunakan pertama kali untuk mengedit video dalam hal "membuat dan mengedit video klip music amatir". Dengan software ini, saya membuat beberapa track video yang dapat ditumpuk-tumpuk. Tapi terbatas. Memang ini video editor yang saya punya dan saya dapatkan dengan full versoin lewat torrent.he4x.
Bagi Anda yang pemula seperti saya, he3x, mungkin software ini tidak mempersulit kinerja Anda dalam mengedit video. Cuma satu hal yang dibutuhkan, yaitu sabar. Cuma satu hal yang kurang, yaitu kurangnya animasi. Tapi, saya sekarang masih menggunakan software ini, karena mudah untuk mensinkronkan video dengan suara atau dubbing.

12. dan lain-lain. he3x. Lain kali jika ada kesempatan, saya cari info lainnya.
