[edit] Movie Maker's good and bad points
[edit] Pros
- It's free
- Relatively easy to use compared to other editors
[edit] Cons
- It crashes quite often, sometimes forcing you to start over!
- Pretty bad video quality
- Can't save huge movies you've edited
So basically, Movie Maker is good for you to get started with making films, but if you're going to get serious with making low-budget feature films, then you might want to buy a commercial program, which naturally yields better results.
