Video Recording

[Lamented]

Hey. I might wanna make a YouTube channel while recording JKA videos. Can anyone give me good tips like--

 

• The right/best program to use
• How to use it
• How to edit

This'd be very helpful. Thank you.

@@Spaghetti, you have any advice?

 

I need a bit of advice, actually. All the help I can get matters. :3

Just use jaMME. Read the readme and the respective threads for it. There's nothing else to use. It's even fancy enough to output avi files. For putting clips together, you can use windows movie maker. If you want to be really fancy, you could give adobe after effects a shot, but it's more tricky to use.

If you want to record while you're actually playing, OBS (Open broadcast software) is probably a good option. Otherwise, jaMME.

Pretty much what Boot and Ping said. You can't go wrong using jaMME and its features are all documented. As for editing, that's really up to your taste. Windows Movie Maker is a good beginner's tool, but you'll soon find it frustratingly limited. Sony Vegas is popular with many, though I prefer Adobe Premiere (pretty advanced but it can be used simplisitcally).

Or if you want to go old-school, and learn things from the core with JKA: http://www.chopshopservers.com/education/video_editing_tutorial_by_commodore/

Action! is awesome. It costs money but the quality you can get out of it is incredible it is really simple to use as well.

Sony Vegas for editing or you can stick with WMM.
Good recording tool is FRAPS or Bandicam. Quick and fast.

*ive heard good things about JaMME but you have to spend a lot of time to decrypted the readme or find someone willing to tell you how to do things. Still waiting myself......been a year.
