I have done very little video editing as I don't consider myself to be good at it. I agree that the people who do it well have a special talent. I have tried to learn some different software but find myself spending a lot of time fiddling and I'm not a fan of fiddling. have had my most success with video editing using my old iMac. I find that Apple has some very easy to use tools to get the job done. M students are becoming quite proficient at using iMovie on the iPads.
