Any recommendation on editing software that can be used by 5th graders with limited adult supervision?

I agree with Stan Arthur, that everything has to be learned and can be learned easily by a fifth grader. I find Sony Vegas Pro quite easy to use as a pro and think it would intrigue the youngest of minds as to what it can do. As far as the version of Sony Vegas, start small, around 9 or 10. Hope this helps.

Everything has to be learned, of course, but I would start with something like Adobe Premiere Elements.

I'm am not familiar with final cut software but any video editing software with chroma key should work. Chroma key will let you pick what color you want to block and is not background specific.

Aloha Terri B CS6 is what edit and mask with, more than anything else I highly recommend it. Started out with photoshop when it 1st came out (a million years ago it seems). go to applebysanimalsdotcom will show you what you can achieve. Good luck Gregory

I'm now using Edius and it's the finest video editor I've seen. It far exceeds Final Cut Pro or Adobe Pro in price and I don't suppose they could perform any better, especially not on my pc. I even tried it on my laptop and it works fine, the render time is longer though.

Edius. Because you can use your existing pc. I tried Sony Vegas Pro and didn't like it. Adobe CS5 is too expensive and requires too big of a computer. Edius works on any pc and laptop as far as I know.

There is a program used for uploading videos and pictures onto your computer that you can install but it doesn't have many editing features. . . . There are some basics on the camera itself like capturing a picture from video and splitting it but these are the only editing features I am aware of. . . Hope it helps! :D

I would suggest Audacity. Its a free voice recorder program that lets you record with the microphone and edit the recording to your liking.

Last time I used it, I don't think you can. I do all my editing later anyway, with PS Elements, or other program. Ahhh... I may have spoken too soon ... lol As I indicated - I haven't used it in a few weeks now.:-)

I don't have a kid, but this program doesn't seem very kid friendly to me. It requires a lot of spelling, like spelling out the word/phrase/sentence you hear. So, my best answer would be no, but maybe someone with children would know better.

so far as I can tell this program is only for photographs. I have not seen any functions for editing videos. I believe that comes with the next program up.

My kids are 5 and 4 and love it. We just let them take and delete any picture they want. Make sure you get rechargable batteries! If they are moving the picture does nto turn out great. That is the biggest challenge for the kids. Must not move arms while pressing button.

Dear Valery: With this Sony Movie Studio Platinum Suite 12 software, you have many choices of audio editing, for example you can extract the audio from a video, you can change the volume of a song in MP3, you can make conversions of audio from one format to another, mix, trim, add, add silence between songs, add fade at the beginning and at the end of a song, you can add special effects, among other things but I'm commenting only a few options that I've used, but still have not used most of the options that the software has naturally required patience and time to take advantage of the program, as it also has an excellent tutorial that will indicating you step by step how to do, it is really very well recommend it since I've had other editors and this is the best and all off the foregoing their specialty is the edition of video clips.

If I were primarily interested in editing, marking up, adding creative after-touches to photos I would go with the Bamboo Capture based on its capabilities and the software bundled with it. I have the create because I wanted it more for drawing and wanted some more advanced features.

Personally, I use Adobe Audition, however that is pretty expensive. I would recommend any cheap recording program with 4 or more stars on Amazon.

Yes, it has a special "kids" program to allow that. I don't use the video that much but when I have I've been pleased with the results.

yes absolutely! The software is awesome... I am an art teacher and I am using this at my studio to do a claymation project. I would say the web cam is not awesome a regular web cam for you computer is better. I would highly recommend it for stop action, claymation or illustration animation. I would also recommend a book on how to set up a stop action animation project re: lighting etc...

I have not used this software in years, switched to Adobe Premiere. I suggest going to the official final cut software website and inquiring.
