Welcome back! It is nice to see you back again.

Who would not dream about creating a hit movie? Well, thanks to modern technology, even home-buddies can create fascinating videos and flicks. Maybe you are already used camcorders, right? There are tons of gadgets out in the market that allows you to capture special events or scenes on video. If you try and view the raw video recording, you’ll simply see some failings. This is where video editing comes in.

Here are a few of the things that you’re going to need apart from the software and video recording gadget discussed above capture card, a PC with huge storage, a camcorder or VCR or simply your PC monitor to view the final video.

The process of video editing is straightforward. With your capture card, transfer the video from the camera or any other video recording contraption to the PC. Edit the raw recording using quality software. After the final touches, you can download the video or picture and burn ( VCD, CD, and DVD ) or tape it. Previous to its invention, editing videos takes ages and it can only be done by the pros. Now, you’ll need at least a Pentium two three hundred or a faster version and a 256-512 Megs ( RAM ).

Video editing consumes lots of space so it might be best to get a drive of 30GB and divide it into 2 separate partitions.

Drive C should have at least 10GB and this is where you’ll store the editing software. Video, audio, and other editing projects can be stored in drive D. Remember to get a 32 Meg AGP graphics card ; if you get the sixteen and lower Meg, you won’t produce quality video materials.

The storage of video files is commonly confusing and it relies on the individual doing the editing jobs. For people that wish to create DVDs, enormous space for storing is required.

A 4.7 GB single sided DVD can only store 2 hours of film or video. DV photos needs even more space since a video that lasts for an hour can take up about 13GB ; so for 2 hours, you need to have 26GB and naturally, additional footage needs further storage so you may as well use 39GB space.

That is not all. If you are intending to add other alternatives like MPEG2 and graphics, you must make it around 50GB. Before you begin with any video editing task, ensure that you have enough storage in your PC.

The cards use software or hardware compression. This will permit you to edit the video and play it back again. MP3 converters can add music to your videos so attempt to get an MP3 Encoder too.

Find the best video editing software so you can now start making memories for your buddies and relatives. There are masses of software programmes out there ; ensure that you select the right one.
