does anyone have any stock footage? I just got vegas and I want to start playing around with some editing things but I don't have any footage haha. It doesn't have to be good, and it could be of anything.

I would love to get a camera and start shooting but I have limited time as it is and even more limited funds.

lol then why are you trying to edit. You need a surplus of both of those.

I personally think editing footage that is not yours, especially if you're tryin to learn is going to teach you nothing and isn't as fun. Having your own shots to edit, you filmed each shot a certain way (hopefully) to edit in a certain way. I think the way you film a shot is very influential on how it is edited.

Not really true!! do you think that professional film and tv editors  always work on the shoot. watching through Rushes and making notes etc can achieve a decent edit. Plus if he is just looking at stuff to play around with i don't think the content or outcome are that important
