Simple editing can be done on the cheap if you’re willing to ditch powerful, high-end software such as Final Cut Pro, or Sony Vegas Pro, in favour of a more modest program.

There's a good chance you already have video editing software installed on your computer. For Windows, that's Windows Movie Maker, and for Macs, it's iMovie. But depending on your particular skill set and what it is you're trying to accomplish with your videos, you may find that these options aren't packed with enough features.


The good news: There are several free video editing solutions you can download that run the gamut from super simple to Hollywood-level powerful. Use these to start making videos today. (For free photo editors, check here!)
