Is Cyberlink Powerdirect a good software to buy?

video editing software corel image

Aaron

Hey, I'm looking for a new video editing software to buy, I'll be using it for youtube videos of all kinds. I'm looking for a software I can do a lot on, similar to imovie and Final Cut Pro. Would Cyberlink Powerdirect be a good option for me? Also, what do you think about Corel Video Studio X4 Ultimate or some adobe premiere software? Any input will help!
Thank You!

Answer
At University, I learned on Pinnacle Studio, but today I choose Adobe Premier CS5. It's well supported for all types of cameras and video formats with lots of presets as a good starting point for your projects.

It integrates fully with the Adobe Creative Suite, so if you wanted to make titles and motion graphics outside of Premier Pro it's easy with photoshop/after effects. Also because it's integrated with Adobe Soundbooth is really useful for quickly cleaning-up your audio.

If you're not familiar with the Premier Pro software there's lots and lots of free tutorials and youtube tutes to help you do everything you need to.

It's got a familiar layout and controls if you use an other adobe software.

The way I look at learning new software...I don't want to invest a whole load of effort learning new software to be held back by not being able to do something in the application at a later date so I always try to go with the more complicated/industry standard application if it's a field I['m not familiar with, even though it might be a bit of a scary learning curve at first, there's always better help for professional software.

Avid Express is equally good, as is final cut on the Mac.

What video editing software should I buy?

I bought a GoPro Hero video camera last year and have a bunch of skiing video that I would like to make a short movie out of. This is just for fun, but I don't want the movie to look like crap. Currently all my video clips have been collecting metaphorical dust for a year and I want to make good use of them. I really know nothing about video editing software. Is there anything that is under $80, somewhat easy to use, and has a ton of cool features? Something sort of like iMovie but for a PC.

Answer
When it comes to video editing, "cool features" and "easy to use" are mutually exclusive. If you have one, you're not going to have the other. Keep your eyes on the prize and accept the fact that if you want cool features, you're going to have to spend some time hiking up the old learning curve.

Also, with GoPro videos, keep MPEG StreamClip in mind. It's what those "in the know" use to convert GoPro clips.

Corel's Video Studio Pro Ultimate is on sale (for the same price I paid for the upgrade version last summer:-( This is a huge program that includes a number of high-end plugins, including Boris Graffiti that you can use to make 3D animated titles and captions and ProDad's Vitascene, a workspace with a ton of specialized effects with multiple presets and oodles of controls. The program itself comes with a lot of transitions and effects the majority of which can be customized and key framed.

This video shows some of what you can do with Vitascene.

It's being used in Pinnacle Studio Ultimate, another editor you might consider - although it doesn't see to be on sale right now. Check Best Buy online. Best Buy has it in-store and sometimes has it marked down.

And please don't forget that you've got to have a computer that can handle a good video editor. All editors work best with at least 6 Gbs of RAM and a multi-core processor and a hard drive that can speedily move large amounts of data around without studdering and lagging. Most computers can handle the graphics - phew!
