Video Editing Software

Does anyone have recommendations for video editing software
that is easy to
use, and possibly inexpensive/free.

Thank you

Ulead Video Studio is what we use here in the 3D Animation
Lab,
primarily because it can handle a wide range of editing
tasks and is
very easy to learn. We purchased 10 copies for the 3D
Animation Lab.
Ulead Video Studio is available from http://www.corel.com and you
can
try the full version free for 30 days. There are excellent
video
tutorials for the software there. I think of it much like a
"word
processor for video" with straightforward cut and
paste, edits. Entering
titles is very much like in Word: font, size, color, type
you text. I
would recommend it as easy to use.

I have read about free video software but have not yet tried
it.

Here is the short list I found in "Video for
Everyman" by Christopher
Lawton in the Wall Street Journal (9/26/2007):

  Yahoo  - JumpCut
 Adobe  - Premiere (available via sites like YouTube and
Photobucket)

JumpCut, in particular, got a rave comment in that article.

'kino' is FOSS[1] and may be worth a look, depending on
your
requirements.  I have not used it myself.
