[Nanase Reikoni]

For beginers of video making, The following beginers program you must have is

Photoshop CS2 or Any version, but to have better quality of intro/credits graphic, you must have a pic atleast 640x480

Of course, in the begining, you will have to required another program called Window Movie Maker, its right on your Start List, just take your time and mess with it for a while and find out whats hiddent.

Use it to make a small video and post it here. Host it at http://media.putfile.com

Indeed, not a helpful tutorial atm, and in fact you don't need Photoshop CS2 to make videos.

I recommend Windows Movie Maker or Avid Free DV for people with no money who don't want to break the law.

If you don't have Windows Movie Maker on your system but posess a copy of Windows then you can download Movie Maker for free from the Microsoft Website. Get Avid Free DV from the Avid website.

If you are prepared to spend about £70 (around $130) then you can get Adobe Premiere Elements, which I use for Video Editing. It is really very good and feature-packed, and allows unlimited Video and Audio tracks, just lacks thigs like capacity for separate sequences etc. Should work fine for AMVs; I used it for editing proper short films, but fo rsomehting like that you really need the next level up.

Which is Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro (for macs) or Avid Express DV.
You may be able to find torrents for these in which case I say go for it, although they will be difficult to use at first. They have loads and loads of capabilities and are all really good software.

You don't need anything else - once you're in the program, click "import media" or "add media", and double click your Anime files. This isn't intended to be a tutorial; I leave that to Nanase Reikoni, but that is at least some advice on choosing the right software.

From Video Editing onwards seems like it can be substituted quite easily to make an amv...

I can't tell now if it help, because I haven't tried it so far, but thanks:)
