A good free video editing program?

Question

I recently shot a home video and it turned out to be too dark due to low light. Is there a good free program that would make the clip brighter?

I use photoshop to brighten my pics, I guess I want the similar program to work on clips.

Answer 3

I haven't used it in a long, long while so don't quote me, but you might try Adobe After Effects.

Answer 4

Windows XP and Vista comes with their own video editor, it's not very powerful but certainly good enough for adding brightness to your home video. You could also have a look at Adobe Premiere seeing as you are into the Adobe Photoshop and they are made by the same people, however it isn't free.

Answer 5

You can trial the 30 day version of Adobe Premier - after that you have to pay for it if you want to keep using it. Get it from Adobe.com

Answer 6

use virtual dub
