Whats so great about Sony Vegas Movie Studio?
It’s cheap: Vegas Movie Studio starts at $54 and can be had for less at places like eBay or through Amazon marketplace sellers. Also, you can find used copies of Vegas Movie Studio (version 6-8) for as low as $15-20. Another great thing about Vegas is that it works on OLD and SLOW computers! You don’t need the latest speed demon to get the job done. (Though something reasonably speedy is nice.) It’s well-regarded in fan video circles: I call it “The Church of Vegas.” (I’m just kidding, okay?) The enthusiasm for Vegas is quite remarkable. A lot of vidders swear by it, as do many professionals. You’ll find plenty of tutorials for it on YouTube. It’s got a lot of features for such a low price: (See above entry for “It’s cheap.”) This really is a main point for me, and a big part of what inspired me to write these lessons. For such a low price (and remember, it can be had for a lot less if you look for used copies) you can do so much.
