In terms of video editing programs out there, you can get free ones that are more effective than Windows Movie Maker. Depending on really what you need it for, you don't really have to have premiere.

RIP to a fandom legend. Given they're such a staple, it's hard to imagine what both the convention and online scene would look like without AMVs, and the various offshoots that were influenced by them. Jim Kaposzatas' videos truly are important pieces of Western Anime fandom history. Since you down...
