Hello everyone !
I've been doing editing since the last 3 years, I've heard and read a lot about the subject and even though I still consider myself a newbie, I believe that the editing software we use has NOTHING TO DO with the quality of a movie. Editing is the art of puting video sequences at the right place at the right time. In my mind, even with Windows Movie Maker, people like Terry Rawlings or Pietro Scalia for example would still create a masterpiece !
If there's something that bugs me is when I see people arguing about using this or that software or this or that version. Keep in mind that not very long ago, someone was cutting the tape with a knife ! On many websites, blogs, forums, I'm always amazed to see that the best movies of all times are more than often, old movies !!!
Regards
you are correct
New software (effects software aside) is generally an improvement to workflow.You will always find people who are serious proponents of one platform or another to the point of criticizing others for using an opposing piece of software, but it does not really matter. The end product is what matters.
