Youtube Video Question

[MoneyHunter]

Hello,

I am fairly new to creating YouTube videos. As of right now I have just been using PowerPoint, but to be honest they are rather dull and boring. And if you can't watch your own videos who else will?

I would like to make videos similar to TheRichest. However, I can not tell what type of software they are using. Would love it if any of you video gurus could help me out. Not looking for a full tutorial just a basic idea of what tools they used for this video. Appreciate it guys! Thanks in advance!

Premiere Pro or Premiere Elements and After Effects apparently.

Thanks for the answer (rep given). However, I was afraid someone would bring up Adobe. I have tried staying away from it! Guess I will have to dive into it if I want to produce some better looking videos.

You don't have to use Adobe software to do videos. In fact, I recommend you do not.

You can do decent videos using the free Windows Movie Maker. If you have a Mac, it comes with the free iMovie that makes decent videos.

Pinnacle and Sony Vegas Studio are both really good and not too expensive.

Plus there are other video softwares out there that will do a good job for you, not to mention the online video makers that range from free to super inexpensive.

I recommend Googling "best video editing software" to get some idea of what's available that's actually decent. Make sure whatever you get has the Ken Burns Effect.

I also ran into a new one called PowerDirector that has great reviews and isn't expensive that you might want to check out.

All of these and others are easier and cheaper than Adobe and do a great job.
