Wedding video software

[clonomaniac]

Please help fellow Cyclones and Iowa State grads!

I have recorded one of my best friend's wedding using a 4k Sony camcorder, very high quality video. Loved it! It's time to use the best wedding software out there in order to make a really good Blu Ray video.

Does anyone have a suggestion on what my best options are? I will be grateful for this help. Thank you so much!

GO STATE!

You do realize that the average wedding video will probably be watched less than 10 times....ever??
And, most of the viewing will be by people who were there and saw it live.

I use CyberLink PowerDirector. I'm now pretty used to it but there will be a learning curve for you.

Windows Live Movie Maker is a pretty good, basic editor, very easy to use and FREE. If you don't already have it on your computer, you can download it from Microsoft.com. But it is being phased out with Windows 10 so if you've already upgraded you might be SOL.

PS - You mentioned making a blu-ray. Discs are really sort of "out." They can be damaged, firmware can change and they can become unplayable, or they can just plain-old stop working. I'd highly recommend you also provide to them in a format that can be preserved forever, like an MP4 file.
