OK so...
Forgive my ignorance, I write and direct, and design sets (and attempt acting), but my editor is having some pretty severe personal problems and I need to edit three short films. Nothing too strenuous: cutting, little colour correction, overlaying sound, importing titles and credits, etc. Basic stuff.
Thing is I have a grand total of zilch experience here, so I need something simple. Good free software? Editing 1080/24fps but I would assume everything about now should handle that and RAW and .mov, but it needs to give me a good finish (forgive me if I appear naive, but I am not an editor). The finished product will be burnt to BlueRay and put into DCP format at some point in the near future. My editor uses Adobe software, which I understand is fairly straight-forward? Nothing too pricey at this stage, please, as I'm getting married in three weeks and moving the week after, so budget situation is as grey as my hair is becoming...
Anyway, thanks in advance.
