Editing software like Pinnacle and Vegas Pro

These were softwares I used and like in the past. But they’ve gone subscription based. Any recommendations similar to them that are single paid? Free options are fine too of course.

DaVinci Resolve is my last resort. Kind of struggled learning it last time and remember timeline being difficult in it.

JULIA - Don West (a Cowboy Bebop AMV edited by me)

Ever since Don West released this song, I knew I wanted to make a little edit of Spike's Julia! Our Julia...

I discovered this artist this year and now I'm a huge fan! I'll leave the link to the official "Julia" video if you'd like to support him.

For this edit, I didn't want to include the sad scenes, not only because they break my heart, but also because the song is more upbeat. This is just for fun... so it's not as cool an edit as the ones I see now, but I wanted to share it in case someone might like the song :) it's called Julia after all so, it belongs here ;)

Have a nice day! I love you all <3

Hurt | Attack on Titan

Made an AOT AMV to Hurt after not editing for a while. Tried a more intense pacing during the middle section on this version.

I really can't make AMVs anymore.

[This is a post on my personal experiences. I haven't edited out the repetitive sections. It is as it is.]

It's not that I have stopped making any videos. I am almost unable to make AMVs anymore.

People probably know me by u/GiantJupiter45. I made a lot of AMVs a few years ago. I even have a YouTube channel, where I used to post stuff. Afaik, my best AMV has been geoblocked in Russia because of the song. It felt strange...

Anyway, it's almost like: I need everything to serve a functional purpose. I tried to make an AMV of "Creep" having the shot of a bicycle wheel moving, an AMV of "Bishakto Manush" with the Uzumaki anime, "Bhindeshi Tara" with Insomniacs After School, "Aadmi C Hain" with the Evangelion Rebuilds. All of the attempts failed, and I don't have any of the files I made. All of them are lost, forever.

Initially, I thought that I had a Kdenlive fatigue after switching from Vegas 14 (because Kdenlive behaves erratically at times, and frankly, I don't understand some of the basic effects in Kdenlive). But I did make a 1-minute edit on a song a month or two ago (which I can't upload to YT because Def Jam blocks everyone from watching videos longer than a minute). I really don't know what's the exact fatigue I had.

I really can't complete an AMV these days. The "best" AMV I talked about was termed as such because I took 8 months for that. Bentovid peeps know.

After that, I made a few AMVs, then I shifted to Linux. Because I had a PC with low specs, I had to use Kdenlive. It has a lot of features, so I preferred that. But, as I was saying, the color circle in Lift/Gamma/Gain is very unintuitive for some reason. Like, I don't understand how I can change the amount of R, G, and B channels in the output.

But I do edit videos on Kdenlive at times. It's just that I can't "express" myself when the intent is enjoying for the sake of enjoying, not changing the whole damn world. Like, in my eyes, these days, everything I do should have a purpose. Everything should be productive. It's as if my mind says, "You can slack on Reddit or Insta, but you shouldn't slack by making a long AMV."

Likewise, I don't watch animes these days. I watched Oshi No Ko (first episode), Insomniacs After School, My Dress-up Darling, and very recently, the first few episodes of 3-gatsu No Lion. Almost nothing feels like... devoting my time towards, so I don't get any of the scenes I need for select. I have watched a few movies over the past few years (including Iron Lung), and even attended a convention. Those experiences were really great, but they couldn't reignite my passion for watching animes. Like, it has almost become tough for me to watch any anime these days, even when many of them are freely available on YT.

And because I can't select the scenes based on the newer animes, I can't even make any AMVs.

Still, I might drop my last AMV sometime, but idk when I will start. Can't even promise if it will be completed or not. I have a lot of Kdenlive projects lying in my memory, just because I couldn't touch any of them after the first day. It's as if a fatigue constantly clouds me whenever I try to make something involving meticulous scene-selection.

But still, thank you to the AMV community in general. I hope I will be able to make something, someday, before retiring from AMVs. If I officially retire from being an AMV editor someday, I might even return like Tom Scott. But the strings are moving according to the whims of time, so can't say anything.

Just a simple request: please preserve my stuff and maybe apply some upscaling, because I have made everything I could've made.

Thanks.

Does anyone know who reviews or does AMV reactions?

Like someone who actually has a dedicated page/vlog when it comes to reviewing AMVs or has a channel where they react to AMVs?
