Honestly, the only thing I could think of that I would want would be a Video Editing program that I could understand,
[/quote]OK, so what video editing programs have you looked at? You’re on Windows, so you can get Movie Maker for free, right? I don’t know how comprehensive it is, but in my experience with iMovie I’ve found that it suffices plenty for projects such as these.
There’s also the option of dual-booting Ubuntu on to your computer, as there is actually a surprising amount of high quality video editors available for Ubuntu/Linux. (Oddly enough the winner of this mini-review is Blender. Funny, since they’re not renowned for their intuitive interface, but worth a shot I guess).
I’m not trying to wiggle out of any spending here, but in my experience with video editing programs you make due with the free stuff or you pay in the hundreds (Final Cut Pro).

and someone to soundboard off of to “am I making any sense?”
[/quote]I’m sure there are several of us willing to provide feedback if we can just get this properly off the ground first.
yeah, np. I haven’t looked at any of the recent options for video editing software, recently.
The windows Movie Maker that I looked at limits video clips to “1 minute 30 seconds”. You can do still frames of pictures for as long as you like though.
Ubuntu is great, I’ve worked with it… and due to the fact that I’m on a wireless network that I’ve constructed … I was stopped by PITA when trying to obtain a driver for my netgear wireless adapter… I could not access the storage (and I am in an environment that really doesn’t play friendly with wired situations… I won’t go into more detail than “pets and pests”)
and yes, you are correct in your experience with video editing programs… I happened to see that too no, do not spend money on my account. I am perfectly fine with my “shoot from the hip” format, and if you remember the:
is the format I would actually try to provide for @normen.
as for the second point, awesome! Yes, that would be invaluable.
^^ BEST. NO. EVER. Where did you find that one!? well, obviously Youtube… Good Find, @normen.
@david_bernard_31 : it certainly is powerful, however, it does not look to be something that I can easily understand. This would be for my learning for later on… but not something that I can intuitively/easily jump into. oh… and yes, it is free.
In fact, VSE was my first real use of blender before Modeling . The linked videos were a big help, ease to follow and to apply (far better than the online doc). But VSE has also some limitations.
It’s me from “Derp land”. I got seriously sidetracked for a couple of weeks learning Lightworks and playing Dwarf Fortress to record video to play with. It’s springtime here in Goodwell, so for the past week I’ve been refraining from jumping into code so that I can attempt house cleaning for spring. My house is more organized now and I’ve caught up on a lot of pending IRL tasks. WOOT! I’m back on task for getting stuff rolling on the video side of things…
@nehon or @erlend_sh, what font would you like me to use for the JME video splash screen? I would like to use the font that is on the 3.0…
but yeah, I’m cobbling stuff together with what I’ve learned thus far… I want to make sure that y’all have a copy available at core if it turns out well. edit: I guess I should ask: What is the name of the font used?
