By Nolan Tornes


Over the past few years there has been a marked shift from having professional videos edited by professionals to anybody with computer who are able to do so. Using simple film editing equipment, it has now become easy for anyone to create decent videos from images collected. Below are some of the most important tools that you will need to start with your project.

The best place to start is by making use of quality video capturing tools like camcorders, DVs and even by using a phone. However, Digital Video or DVs are popular with many videographers for getting quality videos. Camcorders that made it possible to convert the images to a DVD made their way into the market providing a means to watch them on an ordinary DVD player.

Other formats include the HDV that allow the recording of High Definition or HD footage onto miniDV tapes via fireWire. By use of a superfast computer and software, editing the footage has become a breeze.

One of the hard drives will be used for storing your operating system and other software packages that you feel important. The second should be any hard drive that will be primarily used for storage of your videos as you edit them.

Older computer systems that have dual processors can be upgraded to make them more powerful instead of buying a brand new one. Take some time to research and talk to computer professionals on the possibility of how to improve on speeds and performance. The ideal result is to have a system with a number of GBs for RAM and two monitors for good edit options.

Software is the next big thing on your list of consideration, as it will help you create a video that you like and can watch with others. For those using Windows you will find that there is the movie maker software while the Mac users have the iMovie software. Nevertheless, for those looking for more extensions there are many software available on the internet both free and paid versions for more results that are professional.

With all the basic film editing equipment on the ready, you should take a minute and visualize what the video should be like. This will have you on a plan of attack thereby saving you valuable time and effort in the nearby future. It is prudent that you work within a budget you can easily and affordably manage for best results.
