Well.....depends on your budget there killer. Adobe cs is pretty badass. There are better and there are free ones. In my experience though the free ones don't suit my needs. Windows movie maker is eh. Good for editing clips together but a pain to edit the clips themselves.

I just have IMovie and it's so-so and I'm thinking of upgrading to Final Cut Pro which I hear is Freaking awesome. Really expensive though...

I said that because the full adobe creative suite is big money. Pretty sure you can buy just the vid editor though.

Ya, Movie maker isnt going to cut it anymore if you want to make good edits. Off the top of my head: CS5 (premier), Sony Vegas, lightworks (believe its free: http://www.lightworksbeta.com)

I use avs video editor, haven't made any edits on it though. Get the free version and try it out, but anything you make with the free version has a big watermark in the middle.

when you say you have no budget, i feel like you don't understand that professional level editing programs (some of which have been mentioned in this thread) can reach upwards of $1200 and more.

but you get what you pay for. they're expensive for a reason, and that's because they blow cheap or free video editing programs out of the water in terms of retaining quality, available effects, exporting and just detailed effects all around.

Same, I really like it, only $60, really easy to use, but I don't think it has color correction. Or there's Muvee, but that doesn't offer much, just super easy to use.

I found the editing software, big influencers use here: https://influencer.equipment/
The results:
1. Final Cut Pro
2. Adobe Premiere
3. Sony Vegas
4. Apple iMovie (free)

As an Apple User, I would start with iMovie and switch to Final Cut Pro, if you want to become more professional.
