Hmmm I'm not sure there are free video editing software solutions out there that support chroma key (way to put background behind you). Do you have a green screen background and good lighting conditions to do this?
Have you tried getting the trial versions of Sony Vegas, Adobe Premier and similar products ? -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

I could get a green screen. I'm not sure about lighting conditions. I think I do. I don't have the high dollar stuff. Probably a lot of natural sunlight would help - which I can get with my two windows. I haven't tried trial versions yet. I've thought about it, but I'm afraid to do if I can't buy the program right away. This happened with Adobe After Effects. I miss it. It was awesome. I can't afford the program, I only got the trial version for AE. Also, it might turn out that I can't make it work like I want and I'll waste time on my trial. A bunch of reasons why I haven't tried the trial yet. I asked you about green screen as it "costs" and also to get some nice lighting it can cost too. Generally there are tips how to get a cheap chroma key solution for you home using cheap plastic (muslin is better) background and some work lights. Chroma key work is demanding and often results are bad. What I would suggest you is to get a professional photo/video backdrop. There are many textures and designs to choose from. You can get one for about 50$. It will in any case look 50x better/more professional then green screen backdrop. Then you won't need sophisticated video editing software and you just could use Movie Maker or something for editing. -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

I know what you mean mate. I do believe that Movie Studio will do the job for you. It's very similar to Vegas Pro, but it has some limitations in number of video tracks and similar things. However, for basic needs, it's awesome for the price. Let us know what you did!

Okay, Ivan. I plan on getting the trial first, just to be safe. Probably even get a green screen ready to use as well.

Look for it on eBay, you might find a good deal. +1 on this. You can find good Green Screen muslin backdrops on ebay. There are also plastic ones if you are on budget but those may be harder to get good results with. -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net
