I currently use Shotcut a free opensource editor and its fine and it does the job and has some really clever editing gimics HOWEVER i reckon i'd get better production value and output from a paid editor.
Now I've seen Adobe is now PAID PER MONTH, also thought about apples software will it run on a PC?
I'd also be interested in people who've seen my videos should i should keep going as i am?
Only reason am not thinking of a paid editor is the income from youtube is now steady enough to pay for editing software. What major benefits would i get.
Hitfilm has exactly what you need. Their software is about 399 and is a one time purchase. It has industry tools and is very professional. It also supports keyframing and is basically like a cheaper version of premiere pro plus a bit of after effects combined together. The only thing is though , the learning curve is quite difficult.
What i like about hitfilm however is that you can add a 3d environment which make it easy to add effects. For example, you can add yourself in an iron man suit, or put a fire effect on you. It's pretty cool so i reccomend checking it out.
It works on windows, and mac!
However, they do have an express version which has less of the pro features, but is free.
They also have a forum to help you if you're stuck on keyframing.
However, i would say that the purchase is quite expensive, but worth it. I reccomend cracking it and trying older versions so you get the hang of it.
