Dear collective,

any recommendations on which software is best for editing our heroic driving clips.

It will not be needed for a MAC


Thanks

I use the software that comes with it, seems good enough, not PRO, but then nor is my driving LOL

It's called GoPro Capture and has some good slo-mo stuff too

I use Racerender as it allows me to combine the datalogging, and supports my 360 camera.
I paid the £25 ish to be able access more fucntions and remove their logo.

As above, race render.

I also paid the extra and you can combine multiple cameras into your edit. Ie front and rear facing.

If you don't have datalogging and bits to show I recommend Filmora

Very very simple to use with storyboard method and filters, elements and text can be placed over the top of the video. It also has the ability to correct fisheye etc... and my camera isnt a go pro so produced files in a different format.
I also didnt need to re-encode to edit the videos and split them etc...

This was the first video I did with it (sorry not car related) and since then have stepped it up a level, with panning, transitions etc... Ignore the cheesy music I wanted a good beat for video switching

I use Adobe Premiere Elements 15. It's not free but it works pretty well and it didn't take me long to learn.

Hope that helps,
John
