Hey guys,

I am trying to make a video for my family dedicated to a certain family member. I have several clips ranging from 6-30 minutes long that I want to join together to make one continuous video. Do any of you know of a free program I can download that will join them?

You mean free editing software? Windows Movie Maker. Try Adobe Premiere if you can afford it (or find it) or Pinnacle for better editing, though.

 

I need a free program, because I'm only going to use it once.

 

Well, if your good, you can find any software free Window Movie Maker is free, though. It usually comes with XP.

 

I have XP, and I just located Movie Maker... Thanks!

 

Yep.

 

Oh god, now I gotta learn how to use it.

 

Try google.com for some Windows Movie Maker tutorials -- i bet there are tons out there. or also there might be some already packaged in the program, but google is probably betttarr

 

download.com lots of free little programs or trials at least. you shouldn't have to learn how to use it, most of those programs are aimed for begineers and you just simply drag the files onto a timeline then join them.

Thank me later, or with a BOV hose.

 

if you want, dump the files onto a cd/dvd and i'll edit it down for you... add f/x, some graphics, etc.

then burn onto a dvd if you want...

 

i prefer adobe premiere

 

Borrow someone's Mac and use iMovie, or if they have it, Final Cut HD.
