I can't fully remember but just as i was posting i remember sony-vegas, will this be good for just clipping together editing, fasf forwarded clips, and just general being able to edit the video itself with pens etc putting it as basic as i can.
Thanks.
Final Cut X or Final Cut Pro 7 are similar to Sony Vegas, but have a nicer feel to it. iMovie is always an option too! Adobe Premiere is also a viable option, but you'll find they're pretty much similar for the most. Though, it should be noted none of these are free and can cost quite a bit.
Sony Vegas is good too, just as a side note. But some of it's tools are strange in its reaction to user input.
windows movie maker
very good software cooky uses it
WMM is extremely basic though. You may not get your desired affect. But... is free. Get what you pay for :P
Camtasia.
