Before I could get out of my chair, the editing software was live on my screen, waiting to be used. VideoPad did not even allow me to poke my head inside the refrigerator. After I clicked the download button I began to step into the kitchen expecting a 5-10 minute download process. As promised from reviews and user comments, VideoPad downloaded almost instantly. I just needed something that was easy and efficient and something that could be easily learned.Īfter reading reviews and user comments over the course of an afternoon, I downloaded a free trial version from CNET of VideoPad v2.30, by NCH. I had no intention of creating a “masterpiece”. I needed something that would cover basic video editing needs.

I was set to leave in three days and was worried that learning a new editing software while trying to document the event would leave me at my wits end. I dashed to CNet to get reviews and advice on what editing software would suffice.
