Taking your video further
Free video editing.com has identified a select number of video editing products that you may want to look at to help you with your video making.

These tools are provided by third party companies are not affiliates with this site. However, Free Video Editing believes that this video editing products are value added to you as a video maker and we would advise you to review these with a view to purchasing.

Editing books:



In the blink of an eyeTo understand the art of the edit, as well as gain insight from one of the foremest film editors of our time, Academy Award winning Walter Murch, I personally recommend his book "In the Blink of an Eye".

This book is referenced on the video editing tutorial page.

Walter has edited films such as Apocalypse Now and The Conversation and has recently become a big advocate of video editing having originally been against the idea. He has some excellent comments and views on editing as well as tips and recommendations for editors at home.



eBooks

eBooks/DVD's are good video editing products that are worth reviewing.

The following item has been brought to our attention. It is a course for anyone wishing to take their editing a step further and put video on the web. This could be for a business or on client or personal websites. The author uses open source and trial products (such as those listed on this site) to succesfully deploy Flash video sites.

ScreencastsSkinz
If you're looking to make screencasts that really drive your point home and get that more professional look then you could do worse than to invest in this product. It's a complete course explaining how to make the best screencast you can to help sell your product.

If you do decide to add video to your sight and want to make your videos stand out from the normal, drab Youtube style videos that you see on many sights, then you could do worse than to invest in a set of 'skins to make them look a bit different

I think you'll agree these look far better than the normal ones you see on sites. To get these skinz click here!


Films

There is only one way to really understand good editing and that's to watch it in action. In the editing tutorial pages I mention different types of edits as well as talking about films that have examples of this.

Battleship PotemkinThe classic of 'montage' (in the Soviet sense of the word) is Sergei Eisenstein's "Battleship Potemkin" with it's famous "Odessa Steps" sequence that was emulated by Brian DePalma in "The Untouchables"

At only 74 minutes long it's a short classic, but a classic nonetheless.

For a film that show's classic jump cuts you could watch either Lawrence of Arabia or 2001 A Space Oddysey. Both are classics (and should be in your movie collection regardless!)

If you want to see all the films that are mentioned on this site they are all listed at the Free Video Editing Bookstore. Click here to go there.
