Just I wanna learn the basic idea of video editing, like background editing and other dream effects like hollywood movie.
So, I wanna know which video editor of windows should I use.
If I can know it then I'll be very glad.
Please tell me.
Answer
Video Editing:
Lightworks; semi-free alternative to Avid ($1,200), Adobe Premiere ($240/year), and Sony Vegas ($600).
http://lwks.com
Lightworks has been used in the movie industry for more than 20 years. Lightworks also has the fastest workflow in the industry.
Lightworks used to cost more than $1,000, but now Lightworks Pro costs $60/year and you can download a free version from their website.
Editors using Lightworks have produced numerous internationally renowned and Oscar and Emmy award-winning feature films and television programs, including The King's Speech, The Departed, Mission Impossible, Braveheart, and Pulp Fiction.
Lightworks is FREE if you don't need pro video codecs and you can use the free version as long as you want.

3D Animation and VFX Compositing:
Blender; free alternative to Maya ($3,700) and After Effects ($240/year).
http://blender.org
Blender has a complete VFX pipeline in one single software package. Blender has tools for modeling, sculpting, rigging, animation, rotoscoping, chroma keying (green screen), motion tracking, smoke, fire, and fluid simulation, particles, destruction, physics, color grading, node compositing, and video editing.
After Effects uses "layer-based" compositing. Blender uses "node-based" compositing similar to Nuke ($4,155); used in the movie industry http://thefoundry.co.uk/products/nuke
Blender has more advanced features but After Effects is easier to use.
The easiest and most detailed tutorial on how to use Blender is Neal Hirsig's tutorial at http://gryllus.net/Blender/3D.html
Start with the first four lessons of Neal Hirsig's tutorial.
Blender is 100% free with full functionality, no adware, no spyware, and no viruses, and you're allowed to use Blender in any production without having to pay for anything.

Video editing software?
cset2
I was wondering does anyone know any good video editing software for windows. I have used windows movie maker before and it's okay I actually like it except it is quite basic (and often slow). I am really looking to make videos manly that I would put on Youtube. If anyone has used or knows some good video editing software (I prefer free but willing to pay if it is really good) please let me know. I must be able to add and edit audio in it as well as video, thank you.
Answer
Take a look at the tutorials for Windows Movie Maker at http://www.windowsmoviemakers.net/Tutorials/ - it may be WMM is all you need. It really is foolproof except that it's picky in what file formats it takes and the lack of native support for multiple video and audio tracks are a definite disadvantage (but there are workarounds).
The version 2 series were probably the most versatile, you can find them here - http://www.brothersoft.com/downloads/windows-movie-maker.html - but you'll have problems installing the older versions on Windows 7. Windows Live Movie Maker is still good, but not so versatile.
Other free video editors are...
Wax - http://www.debugmode.com/wax/ - this is also a compositor - a bit like Adobe's After Effects - - unlimited video and audio tracks
VideoLAN Movie Creator - http://videolan.org/vlmc/ - up to 64 audio and video tracks
TrakAxPC - www.trakax.com/software/pc/
VideoSpin - http://videospin.com/ - just 1 video track so you may as well use WMM
VideoPad - the free version - http://www.nchsoftware.com/videopad/
Lightworks - http://www.lightworksbeta.com/ - I like this one - unlimited tracks ?
Serif MoviePlus - http://serif.com/free-video-editing-software/ - unlimited tracks ?
Ezvid - ezvid.com/ - 32 video and audio tracks
Another is Zwei-Stein. This is a good editor but I found the interface to be absolutely horrible.
VirtualDub, RAD Video tools, AVITricks and Avidemux are also good tools you should look at. Although not full editors like the others they have some useful features.
Lightworks and Wax together are a very good video editing system for free.
All are safe, at least from the sites I've linked to.
If you want to spend some money then there are reviews of 14 video editors under $100 at http://video-editing-software-review.toptenreviews.com/
More costly are video editors like Sony Vegas and Adobe Premiere. Both of which are very good. Premiere is probably more advanced but harder to learn everything it can do.
