What software do you use to make Big Box startup videos?

Just wondering. I wanted to make a custom one for myself.

Tutorial and FAQ for making videos to submit to EmuMovies

They lean towards the free options as much as possible (like virtualdub for video editing). I've used a bunch of video editing tools over the years. The older (still available for download) version of windows movie maker is actually really good. There is also the current version that should work. If you want a full video editor on the level with Adobe Premier, I recommend Cyberlink Powerdirector. But again, for free options, check the link. There is a tutorial for how to use Virtualdub.

Not sure if Virtualdub has animation capabilities, but if you are looking to have graphics that slide in from the side or zoom or whatever, many of the video editing suites like Powerdirector allow you to add motion.

I've tried this one, and it didn't work out for me. I wonder if someone has found some other options.

PowerPoint is also another good alternative. It may not be as flashy or have as many options as some of the other video editing programs, but it's rather quick and easy to make a .mp4 from a ppt
