Movie Editing

[bigdawgfoxx]

Ok...I am going to buy a cord for my camcorder today, which will allow me to hook it up to my PC.

I want to be able to edit the footage pretty nicely...add words in some spots, fade out other spots...just stuff like that...What will be some good software?

Also, once I edit it...will it edit it on the camcorder too or can i put it on the camcorder? or will it just be on the pc?

Thanks for any help guys.

depends what format you save it as and if your camcorder supports it

as for software i use adobe premiere but am unsure if it can do what you ask for because i only ever use it breifly

Well it is on an 8mm tape that is inside my camcorder...im guessing it will save it as an MPEG or something...

Adobe Premiere all the way.
I've heard Vegas Video (or something like that) is good as well.

I'm also trying to get some software together. What I have so far is;

Adobe Premiere Pro 7
Adobe After Effects Pro 6
Adobe Encore DVD
Adobe Audition

No clue how to use them yet.

So I should just download Adobe Premiem 7? Will that allow me to fade stuff and make stuff look cool...and add music?

Im getting this cord for it...loooks nice i think

ok..nvm i guess.. my comp dont have firewire...what??

I got my premiere6.0 from kazaa. Only downloaded 2, and both worked.
