I was playing around with my new HD camera and video editing software. After 2 hours, 4 computer reboots it FINALLY rendered correctly. Let me know what you think.

Right click, save as (1.5 MB):

Things done:
Clipped original video (it was 45 seconds long)
Flipped 180* (original was upside down)
Added title
Added transition
Added background music

I've certainly seen a lot that were worse first attempts...using every transition and effect that are included with the program, for example. Editing HD is hard on a PC, and doing all the stuff like flips, reverses, etc, really push a processor. Your best bet, is to get better camera skills, and minimize what needs to be done in edit.

This one is the GoPro HD in-car style camera so I'm limited on my skills :) There's no view finder or anything so that's why I sometimes need heavy editing.

Ok... let's make a slight change to what I said earlier. Get a good camera, then learn to use it better, so that you won't have as much editing to do... :)

Those are god for some things, like stunt cams, or where you don't have the room for a full sized cam. That's about it really.
