Help with Premiere or similar please
NaughtyMe
I can deal perfectly well with Photoshop, Illustrator and other image programs. However, I recently recorded a demo and a smoothed demo (my first smoothing). Both were captured at 720v576 (what ever the smaller widescreen setting is in TF2). The demos are fine, they look good. They still looked good when I stuck them in Premiere. Unfortunately, I really don't understand most of the settings in Premiere and my export came out 4:3. Also the file sizes started to be huge for a quick 2 min video with a small soundtrack.

Anyone else got experience in this area - or if you know of a good "free" peice of software that allows basic editing (adding soundtrack, another video file etc.) and easy to use encoding I would be grateful.

I just use windows movie maker
 
Mr G
Yeah i would go with window movie maker as well, also http://www.virtualdub.org/ can be useful. Also Avi is always going to be the largest of the codecs , if you move of them then you are going to require people to also have the new codec ie divx etc

I did use Virtualdub to compress the raw avi. My problem is that I added the music and effects in Premiere and I tried to export it in the same resolution..but it didn't work Sad

You can't edit in Virtualdub can you (add music, add another file with transition etc.)>

You can add sound to a video source, but you're right, it's not so complex, not even like Movie Maker. The best choice might be on Mac. Wink or, just find some tutorials somewhere on Premiere. My video editing experience is limited. Toke

Thank you Krakyn.

However, in the meantime, I have, er, acquired Sony Vegas.
