Hello there!
I am right about to purchase my $4,000 setup, which has everything that will suit my needs for the production of high quality content. But I just realised there is something HUGEEE I missed.
Something that is never accounted for coming from using a mac book air for 4 years which has generally provided these needs with iMovie (great program) and a few free thumbnail editing programs such as Screenflow. Quicktime player is also a low-end recording software which was very useful to avoid watermarking ect.
I need a couple editing/recording softwares.
One for thumbnails
One for editing
One for recording
I don't have money to throw around and the money going towards the setup comes from years of savings.
I wish to be creating videos as soon as the parts arrive.
I will be editing videos frame by frame to create well synced montages ect. Unless I'm simply streaming (also need a program for that), I will need something that can edit general videos too.
I will be recording gameplay at around 30-60fps depending on what is best for my needs. The PC will provide 400fps on most fps games with high settings, so consider fps loss not a problem. Unlike with the macbook air I'm using atm.
Any help is greatly appreciated and I've been pressured with time here so hit me up.
Thanks in advance
EDIT: forgot to add that I will not be able to afford something such as sony vegas pro... $800 is too much...
